(Mingle Log/Open Prompts) found
WHO: Noelle, clinic staff, and you!
WHAT: Mingle logs after the rescue & opportunities to visit Noelle while she's recovering
WHEN: After the conclusion of the 'Flight and Freeze' quest, through late October
WHERE: Bottlecap Bay Clinic
WARNINGS: Hospitalization/emergency departments, recovery from severe injury, comas, themes of depression & disassociation. Any spoilers for Deltarune will be marked.
After being found, Noelle was thawed by resident Fire-types and teleported by a helpful Abra to the clinic in Bottlecap Bay. An expert in emergency medicine- an Audino referred to as Dr. Dino- and her team immediately took Noelle into the back of the clinic and didn't come out for what seemed to be hours.
When Dr. Dino finally emerges into the general waiting room, she announces tiredly that Noelle is likely to make a full recovery. Unfortunately, the Deerling in question is comatose doesn't seem likely to wake up for a while. She might be ready to visit soon, but for now, she needs careful monitoring.
1. Shortly Thereafter (Open; Mingle Log)
A. A nurse Chansey prepares some hot drinks for anyone who was waiting to hear if Noelle would be okay-- especially those who were in Icefall Lake. Feel free to rest here and decompress a bit before returning home.
B. Dr. Dino offers to take a look at any characters who were injured during the rescue operation. If your character works at the Clinic, maybe you're the one treating the injured instead to give Dr. Dino a break.
[ooc; Feel free to interact with each other in either prompt. The only limitation is that Dr. Dino requests you avoid Noelle's room for now.]
2. A Few Weeks Later (Open)
Noelle remains asleep, but Dr. Dino has declared her able to receive visitors. If you enter the room where she's resting, you'll find her curled up on a little cot and heavily bandaged. It seems she sustained several injuries from her rampage, both from being attacked and using high-power moves to attack others without training properly first. Every so often, Chansey will check her vitals and/or change her bandages.
In the corner, some gifts and 'get well soon' notes have piled up for her. If you want, you may leave something for her as well. You can also sit by her bedside and keep her company. If you talk to her, maybe she'll hear you?
At the moment you're visiting, Noelle looks...
A. Serene. Angelic, even. If it weren't for the bandaging, you might think she's just having an afternoon nap. She emits a faint peppermint scent, as always-- is that from the flower on her head, or is it just her?
B. Troubled. Her ears are down, pressed flat against her head. The flower on her head looks like it's trying to close up. Every so often, she makes a whimper or gives a faint kick to her leg as if she's trying to run. If you listen closely- very, very closely- you might hear her mutter something in her sleep. Maybe it's 'Dess'... maybe it's 'Kris'... maybe it's your name, if you were very close.
[ooc; Noelle will not wake up during threads responding to this prompt. If your character talks to her, she may or may not remember what's said to her. You can also leave a gift or a letter for Noelle if you'd like. Two or more people can visit Noelle in the same thread if you'd like this to be a mingle log as well.]
3. Approaching All Hallows' Eve (set in late October; Open unless marked)
Noelle awakened on her own. It's almost as if she waited for everyone to leave before opening her eyes. The rumor is that she sat straight up, staring intently at something nobody else could see.
Soon, word gets out that Noelle is awake. Dr. Dino wants to keep her in the clinic a bit longer to keep an eye on her, and as it turns out, Noelle struggles to walk on her own. When Dr. Dino isn't helping other patients, she helps Noelle walk around her room so she can stretch, sometimes. Chansey guards her room, both to protect her from anyone who would wish her harm (there are quite a few she fought with, after all) and to stop her from running away again.
Despite the fact that Noelle is awake, she's less accessible than before. Apparently, she doesn't want to see anyone. She seems deeply ashamed of her outburst, and aside from that, there's a fog of melancholy that weighs her down.
A. Whether you sneak in, muscle your way past Chansey, or find some other method, you get into Noelle's room without permission. She's visibly shocked to see you, but doesn't try to call for help or kick you out-- just blithely accepting whatever you plan to do.
B. (Closed except for Bigby, Kinger, Tenna, Umemiya, and Ren. NOT mandatory-- just the approved list.) If you wish to visit her and Noelle considered you a friend, she'll let you in. Sorry, Shoka and Kris, neither of you are on the list for some reason...?
With that said, she's quiet when you enter, almost giving the vibe of a broken doll. The curtains are drawn and she's still curled in on herself, only glancing at you furitively from the corner of her eye.
C. (Closed except for medical staff/helpers at the clinic.) Chansey allows you in, but you're being watched, just in case. Noelle doesn't regard you, allowing you to do whatever you came here to do.

3C
She doesn't say anything now either, slipping into Noelle's room after a quiet word with the Chanseys and Dr. Dino. No comment at all as she hops into the bed and curls herself against Noelle's back.
Warm light streams from nowhere in particular, and Agnes's body radiates heat. She still smells incredibly odd, all struck matches and incense and distant warning spices. But she is a beacon of body heat that demands nothing at all of Noelle in this moment.
no subject
The freezing cold she's been feeling- ("All psychological, I believe," Dr. Dino had whispered to Chansey, "there's no lingering signs of hypothermia or illness,")- begins to wane. But it's still there, just on the edge of her consciousness, like darkness at the edge of a campfire's light.
After a long time without a single word exchanged:
"I did what was in my nature."
Her voice is hoarse. She doesn't look at Agnes as she speaks.
no subject
There is a complete lack of judgement in her tone. It's something felt, a whuff of air at the back of Noelle's neck as much as a sound.
Is this her fault? For nudging Noelle to act as is her nature? Did she make this mess?
"Tell me something. Do you still think they're maybe not worth protecting, after they worked so hard to find and rescue you?"
no subject
She might just be a weak fawn encompassed by an apocalyptic threat turned supereffective Fire-type right now, but she knows she did a lot of damage on her rampage. She hurt lots of people even deeper without so much as a single attack.
"I think I... no, I mean. I know that I hurt a lot of people. Even before I ran away or came here."
no subject
Agnes can't help but think that whatever pain Noelle caused, she's surely done worse.
Some say the world will end by fire, some say by ice...no subject
She's never going to see them again. She's begun to realize this, but it's too much to accept.
no subject
Because...Agnes has a Lot of Thoughts, but she doesn't want to spill them if they're not going to be received on the other end.
no subject
"... Go ahead. Tell me what to do." She's good at following orders, isn't she?
CW: murder, Magnus spoilers.
There is the sensation of a canine tongue licking the back of Noelle's neck gently. Lick-lick. Like grooming a pup. Or a kit, that's what a baby fox is.
"What I know of strength, it came at the cost of my entire life. All the potential for the girl I was was destroyed to make me what I am. Was. I'm not going to say you deserve better than I had. I can't say what you deserve. But whatever in me that is capable of hope, hopes for more for you."
She knows Noelle doesn't grasp how vital that last bit is, how much it hurts to speak into being. After all, hope was the failure for which she was killed by her own cult, right before waking up here.
continued CWs from above; deltarune ch2 weird route spoilers
The talk about 'deserve' stops her counterargument in her tracks. Hope... is there hope for her, even now? If her prayers could reach the Angel here, would the Angel even listen?
"Agnes, I... Fahaha, I..." When did she start smiling? She isn't happy. Is this a defense mechanism? A mask slipping back on? Some sort of desire from deep within? "While I'm here having fun, receiving everyone's well-wishes, one of my friends back home is dying in the hospital because of me. Freezing and alone... haha. Aha... Who's wishing better for him?" The mania is clearly creeping in. "Why should I be happy after what I did?"
CW injuries, more Magnus spoilers. are we having fun yet.
"I gave a boy I liked third degree burns by kissing him on the cheek, less than a day before arriving here. Are you sure I'm the person you want to be asking this? If he survives, he'll be horribly scarred for life. Here, I can touch people without causing them pain, for the first time in my existence. And I'm using that gift to warm you."
no subject
"Aren't you mad at yourself?" she asks, finally. "Doesn't it just feel like it's... tearing you up inside? All the time?"
no subject
"I'm mad all the time, yes. Furious. But it's not myself I'm mad at, most of the time. I'm the only person I actually ever had control of, in the whole situation. They...they took myself from me. At my birth, in the Web's house, when I was anchored, when I was killed. They stole myself from me at every turning."
It's not the exact same, is it? But enough, enough.
no subject
No matter how she looks at it, the end is the same-- so many have been hurt. When Noelle tries to think about how to make it right, her brain feels like it's full of ice. Froslass is gone, and that voice she heard is gone, and Kris...
... Kris told her none of it was real. How real was it now?
"I'm... sorry. Making you come here. Making you tell me everything that happened to you."
no subject
There's a bit of laughter in Agnes's tone of voice.
cw suicidal ideation
The faint smile vanishes as quickly as it appears. She speaks so quietly, Agnes might not hear at first.
"... in that case, can you do something for me? Please."
"... if..."
"... if I start attacking people again. If I lose control of myself. I want you to stop me. P-permanently, if you have to. Please. I don't want to..."]
no subject
"I will stop you, if the need arises, Noelle. But until that day arrives, fight it. I don't want your blood on my claws or your flesh on my fangs."
no subject
She'll try. It would be cruel to force someone so similar to kill again, after all. But who else would understand- or even comply- with such a request?
With that said and done, Noelle begins to drift to sleep. But if Agnes tries to move or leave, Noelle uses a surprising amount of strength to try to keep her in place.
