Hey beta team. An unfortunate piece of news today -

For those of you who know Mr_Misteaks (tall Lord Partizan), he suffered a very bad injury during his football game. He's in the hospital and the doctors say he's stable, but I don't think he'll be online for a while.

He'll probably appreciate any well wishes you guys have. Feel free to leave them here and they'll get passed along. We hope he has a speedy recovery.

Something worth considering, since this wouldn't be the first time this has happened - Mr_Misteaks reportedly ran a dungeon that left him feeling real-life echoes of his wounds earlier this week. Those who saw him in person afterwards said he had a limp. No way of telling right now if they're related, but I'm personally interested in any thoughts you guys might have on the matter.

Take care of yourselves everyone.

oh jeez

i hope he feels better soon

do you know where his hospital room is? i just want to send a get well card and some cookies

i know he probably wouldn't be able to have them

but it's the nicest gesture i can think of right now :(

[secondthoughts]

I dunno if it's my place to give out his location, but I think he'd like that. I know one of his brothers plays so he'll probably get in contact with you once he sees this. [ That's a very subtle prompt to do just that, Levi. ]

Thanks, Leo.

[bleatingedge]

okay, i'll keep a look out for that

if there's anything else i can do, like help fundraise if he needs help with that sort of thing, let me know

[secondthoughts]

He's here.

Ask him. I don't know :-( I'd pitch in too.

[bleatingedge]

yeah i'll hit him up

thanks hector <3

A game causing a bone to break sounds a little too crazy even for me.

But then again, most of what's happened here sounds too crazy to begin with.

[secondthoughts]

It sounds crazy to me too. I didn't even think of it at first, but one of his other beta friends at the game floated the idea and now I can't stop thinking about it.

[threatmewted]

How many of you were at the game anyway?

[secondthoughts]

Besides Misteaks and myself, Tylor, Hani, Mithrun, and one of Misteaks's brothers.

Plus the rest of the crowd LOL

[threatmewted]

Ha ha. I'm sure everyone really enjoyed watching that in realtime.

[secondthoughts]

It was fucking horrendous.

[threatmewted]

Sounds like it.

un: Mr_Misteaks 9/19

[gluttoning]

my doctors cant even tell how it h appened

if it were a stress f racture they would have seen it when i w ent to the clinic on wednseday but i dont know im not a doctor

everyones a little weirded out over here

[threatmewted]

Wow, I hated reading every single word of that.

[gluttoning]

sorry

wont be back for a w hile so we might need to reschedule

[threatmewted]

Are you still worried about that?

Just focus on resting and getting better.

[gluttoning]

I feel b ad about it :((

[threatmewted]

Well, don't.

[murrmoire]

Hi, Hector.

I don't know Mr_Misteaks personally, but please let him know that Memoir from the beta wants him to get well soon. I'll reach out to him if he logs in again. Otherwise, please let me know if there's anything else that can be done to help.

[secondthoughts]

Thanks Memoir.

un: Mr_Misteaks 9/19

[gluttoning]

hey memoir

dont know when ill be able to b e back in the game but i appreciate the thought

thanks

[Much later after the post goes up, there's a reply with more information.]

For those of you who don't know, Mr_Misteaks is my brother.

Like Hector said, he's stable and is likely to recover.

I don't want to go any deeper than that on the forum so if you want details or want to send him a card/flowers/etc, drop me a DM and I'll give you my IRL number. You might get forwarded to my oldest brother though, just FYI.

Thanks.

[Hit this post up for IRL convos!]

[secondthoughts]

Thanks Levi. Much love to your brother.

[ What the fuck? He wakes up to this nonsense from the states? Barrett, what happened? If he had a limp, why was he allowed to play? Why did no one stop him? Demanding answers to that won't get anywhere, though, because no one here knows. ]

I hate to hear this. I don't want to think a game could cause such a dire real life injury, though. It's something we will have to discuss with Mr_Misteaks if he chooses to return, I suppose.

However, I do wish him well. It's all I really can do being all the way over in Japan.

[secondthoughts]

Yeah. The thought is fucked up honestly. I hope it's unrelated.

But I'm sure he'll appreciate that. Thanks Fandaniel.

un: Mr_Misteaks 9/19

[gluttoning]

[sup, guess who's posting on the forum from his cell phone agaiiiiin]

appreciate it

dont know what i can r eally answer but i can try if you have q euestions

sorry for the typos im too tired to fix it while im on m y phone

[trollophoroi]

[ Fandaniel here wondering how intimidatingly serious older brother Lucas has not yet confiscated this boy's phone. ]

Misteaks!

I am full well glad to hear from you. I spoke with one of your brothers. Please expect some "get well soon" gifts from me.

I suppose the only big question I would have is whether or not the injury was in the same part of your leg as what you felt in the dungeon you ran.

[gluttoning]

yeah he told me something was coming in from your side of the wo rld. im looking forward to it.

yeah. its the exact part actually.

[trollophoroi]

I see. How very disconcerting.

I can't help but agree, then, with the thought. Somehow the damage from the game carried over to your physical body, but that shouldn't be possible. I can see how it could affect our minds and thoughts but our bodies?

And yet, how can we call this a coincidence?

[gluttoning]

my doctors dont have answers either

when i saw a clinic ea rlier i was given an all clear by the docs and our team pt so nobody knows whos to blame

just dealing with the aftermath is all we can do right now

[trollophoroi]

It is.

I am glad you have so many caring brothers to keep you company through this, so please rely on them to take care of you, Misteaks.

[gluttoning]

yeah. im glad theyre here.

they won't let me hear the end of any of this for how worried they all are but i think they deserve that much

[legendofthelion]

thanks for letting us know

I don't want to come down harsh while he's recovering

[Though she has a LOT of questions why, if he was limping, it wasn't looked at, why he was even allowed to play if it was a visible injury. She feels like she's gonna yell at someone if she goes too far down that line of thinking. Better it not be Misteaks.]

there anything besides football he likes as far as gifts go? favorite animal?

un: Mr_Misteaks, 9/19

[gluttoning]

i like lions

don't worry about it too much cause my f amily is taking care of me

you can be harsh if you wantto though i dont know what it would be about

but if you have question s i can try to answer

[legendofthelion]

you just worry about getting better

i'll text you

[Since she has his number. Just to confirm hers and get the hospital address so she can have a cute lion plush and a candy basket sent, because hospital food is joyless. A little get well card is attached.]

LOL glad to see it :-)

Rest up buddy. We'll be here.

[gluttoning]

[And now that he isn't QUITE so high on painkillers:]

not much else to do but im glad i can see the forum on my p hone

ill try to answer questions but i don t know if itll be helpful

[secondthoughts]

Take your time. Only answer what you can. I think everyone's just happy to see you're doing okay.

[gluttoning]

[...]

i dont wanna see this happe n to anybody else

even if i miss the conference and lose my beta slot i wanna do somethin

[secondthoughts]

I know.

[ Frustration boils in Hector's chest again. He knows that all too well. ]

Actually, I have a question. I'll text you.

[gluttoning]

okay. ill be here.
