damn bro u teach like this? | m!byleth & pandreo

This most recent run of the Arena results in more injuries than usual, and with resources scarce as-is, the infirmary turns to lesser-used remedies and ancient herbs to try to treat these wounds. Few people want to try them, for good reason: the list of potential side-effects is almost as long as your final essay in history class. Yet the nurses are in grave need of test subjects willing to test out these new cures. Will you help them out?

He was still getting a grasp of the situation, having just arrived- but it was chaotic even after he managed to understand what was going on. A training tournament of sorts with the students and faculty split into teams, and then injuries happened. Made sense, seeing how this place was a military academy. It was only natural for injuries to happen during training.

It was the number of people that made Byleth stand at the infirmary door for a good five minutes. That’s a lot of people, alright. Either this academy’s training staff forgot that students lack experience or maybe said students have been skipping classes on the matter of dodging attacks. 

Or maybe both, that was very much possible.

Byleth did have some knowledge of faith magic, it was a valuable skill for any mercenary, but the nurses asked him to just use the typical natural techniques for the sake of doing things faster. Faith magic, as reliable as it was, could only be performed with one patient at the time and right now the volume of students was way past that point. The only issue was…well, those natural techniques had quite the list of adverse effects.

And that was how Byleth found himself sitting down criss cross on the floor with a book on his lap- a book whose weight rivaled that of his iron sword mind you, alongside another man of the faculty staff. He had never seen that guy before, despite essentially being his work colleague.

“The nurses asked us to test some of those herbs. They can’t test it on the students.” So they’d be the guinea pigs for this. The girl inside his mind wasn’t too thrilled at the idea, but Byleth didn’t quite care. “We should start with herbs for smaller injuries.” Grabbing a small pouch with a tag, Byleth compared the name of the herb with a list of names in the book. This one should be for scraped and other superficial wounds. 

Blue eyes focused on the listed side effects. Then he flipped the page before finishing his read. “We’ll figure out the side effects as we go.”

He side eyed the fellow instructor. Which then turned into a full stare. “What are you?” He meant to ask what was the other’s job, but oh well.

daeificatio:

Byleth leaned back slightly, feeling his personal space get temporarily invaded with how close the other guy got before straightening back into place and going back to the pouches with herbs before them. “Hi.” He started. “And no.” He finished.

Indeed, no instructions were given as to how they’d prepare those herbs. Most likely because the infirmary team itself…most likely didn’t know how to prepare them either. Probably this influx of injuries was faster than their research department, who knows. “I assume we just need to ground them into a paste. Or eat them whole.” Cobalt eyes flicked back to the book he discarded earlier. “The book is useless.” Of course it was, otherwise the team would be using it to get to know those herbs. They weren’t documented yet.

The professor reached out for a pair of leaves, carefully inspecting them. “Priest, okay.” So, the other male was a priest. Didn’t look like one. 

“I am a teacher.” It was only then that Byleth noticed how weird this question had been. With a quick comment from Sothis in his mind, he brought the leaf near his nose to smell it. No particular smell, just very leafy. “I teach sword and faith.” After a brief pause, Byleth popped the leaf inside his mouth and started to chew on it. “And survival.” Chewing on herbs wasn’t new to him- after all, mercenary bands rarely ever managed to get in contact with actual doctors, having to instead rely on their own knowledge on how to treat injuries or, if lucky, recruit someone who knew healing magic.

“If you are a priest,” He continued to chew. The taste was unremarkable. “Don’t you know about faith magic? Shouldn’t you be healing the stud-” Calm and monotone, as if they were discussing the weather, but Byleth paused as if his brain had suddenly frozen in place. To those watching from a distance, one could mistake the professor simply pausing to think about something or recall a memory- but no. Though his face was still rather blank and his eyes seemed aloof as ever, something in them had changed.

The smallest glint of absolute suffering. 

When he grabbed that leaf, Byleth assumed it would be just your average slightly bitter herb to contain headaches and other simple bouts of pain. He didn’t think however that this portion of leafy goods would numb pain by gracing him with one of the most rancid tastes he had ever had the displeasure to face.

A slow, dragged intake of breath as he quickly grabbed a vial of water and drank the entire thing in one swift go. Shit, the aftertaste was strong. With quick blinks, Byleth kept his composure in check.Grabbing a small slip of paper, he noted it down. “It numbs pain, but it’s more preferable to stay in pain if this is the medication.

The paper read: “tastes horrible”

from the quick exchange, pandreo's learned exactly one thing: the guy's pretty terse. he keeps his answers short, but seems willingly enough to at least entertain conversation where necessary. "that's probably a safe assumption, sure," he answers in turn, watching the man cycle through the process with what seemed to be little regard for the process. "i'm assuming some of them should be made into a tincture. maybe boiled into a tea or something similar." he'd heard of a few folk remedies that worked the same way. but, those needed to be tested and checked instead of being taken at their face value alone. 

testing meant that they weren't exactly sure what exactly all these herbs were for and or what the consequences of them would be. there was a fine line between poison and medicine and his patient smile turns a little more reluctant then into complete bewilderment—"wait! don't just put it in your m—yyyyou ate it. alright."

sure.

why not. 

scanning for any signs of the herb so far backfiring, pandreo notes down the possibility for a delayed reaction in his head before scrambling to cut in another reply as to why he was helping with this as opposed to outright casting healing magic before the man just stops talking altogether. "hello?" should he snap his fingers in his face? it'd be pretty rude of him to do so, and the rational part of his brain leaps to the next conclusion. golden eyes fixate on the other's vacant expression, watching for the potential change in color of his lips or for his pupils to abruptly lose focus. he even stops to hover a hand in front of the professor's mouth and check that he was still breathing. ( good news, he was! ) proven all the more so when he speaks again. "did it numb your tongue or something there?"

"it doesn't have to all be taken by mouth. we can just turn it into a poultice too. but, uh." pandreo slowly slides the tray of potential candidates over toward his side, then searches for the abandoned book. "maybe you don't just things in your mouth, huh, big guy? can i get you a juice or something?" did that sound condescending? it was how he used to get panette to take her medicine as a kid. it seemed like an apt response here too. picking up another flowering herb, he gestures toward the book before directing the professor's attention back toward the lone sheet of paper where he'd written down that it tasted terrible. "maybe we can just, lick it or something."

Mutual appreciation post

So a lot of people did one so here I am hoes

@jungkooksbuttons Hafsa there is no word to describe how much you mean to me, for real I could write a novel about how I feel about you but I’m sure you already know that with all the paragraphs I sent you mon cœur lol: did you know you’re the only person in my life that I wrote paragraphs for? That’s how much you mean to me. I don’t know you’re just amazing and you inspire me to try harder because I know that even if times get harder for both of us we got each back’s and i don’t plan on giving up now that i found you my other half: you’re so damn amazing like I can’t put it into words but you’re funny, pretty, thoughtful and I feel so comfortable with you?? It’s like we can do and say everything to each other without judgment and that’s something I never done before with anyone else but you, i also love how we’re both crackheads and we can talk for hours about nothing but still have fun somehow. Seriously you became such an important part of my life, I actually didn’t expect that when I first joined the gc but now I realized that was the best decision I made this year because I got to meet you. I have so much to say but I’m going to stop now because it’s not a Hafsa appreciation post djjdj seriously babe I love everything about you: your qualities and your flaws and nothing will ever change that

@bloomingjiminie I have so much to say about you didi oml i don’t even know where to start, you were the first person that talked to me in the gc and we got along so well?? I was chocked because I usually get hated easily lol but no with you, it was so easy it’s like you have a power to make people feel comfortable talking to you and that’s amazing, you’re amazing. Honestly I was a bit sad when we stopped talking for a while but then we did our gc and BAAM you became one of my closest friends and soulmate. I’m so glad I honestly made this gc because it brought me closer to you and the others. You’re an incredible writer and I have the best ideas with you and joking around with you is so easy because you have a great sense of humor so I’m not scared to say the dumbest things to you because I know you’ll end up saying dumb stuff too. You also know when to stop joking around and being caring to me when I feel upset and that means a lot. I love you chicken to my frog legs even if you clown me but it’s fair because I clown you too lmaoo

@chen-stans-are-the-best KERI you living legend and my partner in crimes, you’re so damn cool like everything about you is wow, you’re so sweet and loving but at the same time we know we can count on you if we’re in trouble to defend us. You laugh and put up with my dumbass like no one else and that means a whole lot because I know that it doesn’t make everyone laugh like it does with you and I tend to be annoying. I know we tease you a lot about you driving for example but you never get mad and that’s nice to know I can joke around without making you upset. Also you’re a genius, the ideas you create and the evil plan we did once was hilarious and wonderful to do with you. You’re a cutie (even if you say you’re not) and I love talking to you my soul sister because I know you’re here to listen if necessary. Even if I’m bad at expressing how I feel, I want you to know that I won’t leave this gc even if I get banned somehow because you guys became my family and you’re dear to me Keri, I love you (I wanted to make it dark purple cause it’s your favorite color but I don’t know if it’s dark enough lol)

@little-bunny-jungkookie Rae the queen of moodboards and my close friend, honestly you’re so friendly and creative and kind to me, I’m honored?? You’re an angel and I’m not joking even if you may disagree and I’m so happy you consider me as your friend. I know I can talk to you about serious situations without hesitation and go to you anytime to ask you for some advices and I’m forever grateful for that. You might have joined recently but it’s like we’ve been friends for a long time and I can talk to you in vc or send you random pics without thinking about it twice because you have such a comforting and peaceful presence for me, I know I can trust you. You may have flaws but know that it doesn’t make you less of a good person because your qualities have more impact on others than your flaws and your feelings are valid no matter what anyone say. You’re a great person and friend to me and I love you very much Rae and sorry I pronounced your name wrong at first djdj

@seokjinownsmyass My bro Mina, you’re so talented with what you write and we have so many moments together like the time we were teasing Simon and Dee about their “platonic” relationship was iconic or the whole thread we did with the « 🌚🌝 ». I love listening to you rant because that’s so cute (Raena is thriving) and it makes me feel closer to you, I’m happy you’re my bro and I know I joke around a lot and tease you but you’re really an important friend to me and I miss you a lot when we don’t talk. I care about you Mina and I’ll fight you if you doubt yourself because I love you so does Rae and others and you and your memes are the best so don’t ever think for a second that we’ll stop loving you bro because that won’t happen, I’m stubborn af after all. I hope you’ll join the vc soon tho I want to hear you voice Mina jkjk you don’t have to if you don’t want to

@killcomet Starlight, you’re so precious I literally can’t, you always tag me in cute things and I just melt because that’s how adorable you are and I appreciate it because it feels like you’re thinking about me even if we’re not talking that much lately so it makes me feel better and your voice is beautiful, I could listen to it for hours. You may say you’re annoying but that’s not the case hon: your flaws, your insecurities, your doubts, everything about you matters to me and don’t ever hesitate to text me because you might believe you’re annoying, personally it makes me happy to know I can be here for you and I’m always here if you want to talk Drew. I may not be physically present but I still will do my best to help you in any way. I love you and talking to you until 5 am was goal (Simon was here but he kept leaving so technically it was just the two of us dhdh)

@lofisapphic Bee omg you’re so fun to talk to you because we do so many icon things together first it started with the Simon protection club then the crush squad and finally the pickup lines war, I can’t I’m actually screaming everytime you send a pickup line to me jdjdjd im still surprised honestly we haven’t been banned but I’m not complaining. Also you’re so pretty like stop sis that’s not fair and you’re great because even if we have different opinions sometimes, we still respect each other and you’re very mature and respectful on a lot of subjects and that’s impressive, i stan. Anyway I love you and your gay panicking ass

@puppieseokie fay sis you’re iconic seriously, l miss you ranting about your girlfriend on the gc and I was kind of sad when you and bee left but it’s understandable. Your mind is a gift from the god seriously: you love hoseok and bts, you ship shrek and Yoongi and you’re a gay legend. I respect you ma’am and if you have cute moments with your gf, don’t hesitate to talk to me about it~

@simonbunnyjunior SIMON my French talking little bro, you’re the kinkiest person I met in a while but that’s goal honestly. You’re kind af and you do your best to help and make everyone feel better. You’re shameless but at the same time you’re still respectful so i live for that. ALSO the nickname you gave me is so fucking cute, I’m screaming. I admire you for not giving up even tho things are hard for you sometimes and I hope you know you can talk to me anytime if you feel like things are getting too difficult for you to handle. Love you

@bangtansoftboys Robin it’s been a while since the last time you were in the gc, I hope you’re okay and I hope you know that we’re joking when we’re teasing you because we’re crackheads anyway love you cute king~

@sundaetae Dee I own you a lot honestly because without you I wouldn’t have joined this gc so thank you so much and you were the first person I directly ever talked to so I think it’s cause of you I was able to not be shy anymore and I’m grateful for that Dee love u sis

@diamondjoonie Andrea hello~ i know we interacted like once but you sound like a great person to hang out with because the only time we talked we did memes and I wasn’t feeling awkward talking to you so if you ever feel like chatting again, don’t hesitate to message me

@busted-aesthetic MEL you’re so cool seriously, I know we just started talking recently but you’re so funny and you have like an aura that says don’t fuck with me cause I’ll hunt you down djjd talking to you until 6 am with mon cœur was hilarious especially when you guys started teaching me how to pronounce things correctly, iconic. Anyway I hope things get better and love you queen

@kingdomzeldaquest LOTTe my murderer and non-existent friend, I love our inside jokes that we had because now we can confuse others for no reason and that’s goal.

@justramblingaboutthings HEYYY Raquel how are you? It’s been a while since I saw you, I miss screaming about Dia’s talent with you. Take care of yourself and hope you’re okay

[revelale]

this was not in his job description. the smell of herbs and poultices burn at his nostrils, and pandreo has to work hard to not let the stinging of the smells show on his face. in his capacity as a priest in elyos, the extent to which he was involved in healing was limited to the battlefield. any real and true healing was done by experts in their craft and in their skill. he thinks of jean, and how that pint-sized doctor might've reveled at the opportunity to show his skill when it came to this sort of a thing.

but when it came to him, as in pandreo—would it really be a surprise to people to learn he wasn't much of a caretaker?

it wasn't that his bedside manner was lacking. he had great empathy for people. it hurt to see other people being hurt and it made him feel useless when he could do nothing to ease their pains. but, it just wasn't something that he was trained in, contrary to the monks at the monastery here. that made well and enough sense. it was home to a military academy, and the word ' military ' implies injuries. he just didn't think that meant that he was the one resolving those injuries.

least of all with these plants and herbs, which he's learning from a book as much as the unfamiliar professor seated beside him.

"right," pandreo answers in turn as he peeks over the man's shoulder to try and parse out what he can of the plants they'd been given. he really only recognizes a few of these from the book. basic ones from when he'd been growing up, and they lacked the gold for any treatments: feverfew, for reducing fevers; garlic, to lower inflammation; ginger, for nausea; valerian, for insomnia.

the ones that they were actually testing were all unfamiliar.

"did they say how we're supposed to prepa—hi." he doesn't finish his question. he's already nose to nose with the other instructor, and all pandreo can do is stare dry-mouthed and in shock as he's promptly asked ' what are you? ' to which, he can only answer half-seriously with narrowed eyes: "a priest?" was that the question?

"what—are you?" was that rude?
