So there's this hospital in Alliria. Called Metisa's Commune of Grace and Healing. Not too big, not too small, not too full either--not a whole lot of the sick or injured, nor even travelers or street-dwellers who were just looking for a place to stay the night.
And it was quiet.
Or.
It was quiet.
"...not even all that bad! That's what I told the other guys, but did they listen, noooo. Just like you're not listening. I can walk, you know. I'm just not because imabitlazy--SHUT UP! You didn't hear that, I didn't say anything. Yeah that's right. CARRY ME! Do your job! What are you, a monk or something? Oh, you are a monk, my apologies. Nice haircut, idiot! Metisa's Commune of Grace and Bowl-Cuts, is that what the sign out front said? Well it should!"
The curtains which were drawn in such a way so as to enclose two separate beds in a "room" fluttered, and in came a monk and a nun carrying the loud pyromancer on a litter. They set the litter down on the empty bed and Visha rolled off of it and onto the bed proper. As the monk and nun were (hastily) preparing to leave, the nun looked at the occupant of the other bed and said sheepishly, "I am so sorry."
And then they left.
Visha immediately flung her attention onto the occupant of the other bed. The right side of her body, her clothes and skin, were charred and blackened haphazardly. Curiously, all of her hair was still there, orange as it was and definitely not burned off or smattered with soot or ash.
"Can you BELIEVE this!? Oh, dur, just because there was a little fire let's blame the PYROMANCER! Honestly! The nerve! Like I don't know how to stop a fire if I really wanted to stop one. I wasn't even doing anything. IIIII~~ was just minding my own business, my own absolutely non-fire-related business, see, and I was just as surprised as EVERYBODY ELSE!"
Visha flopped over onto her side to face the other bed's occupant. Said in a voice that was inexplicably twofold quieter and calmer than just a second ago, "Hi. I'm Visha. So how'd you end up here at this rinky-dink hospital? No, wait. I'll guess. Can I guess? I'm gonna guess."
Someone is going to have an eventful stay at the Commune of Grace and Healing.

So I'm trying out using the "quick write" tag for this thread. Essentially, I think the tag would be good for indicating threads that are meant to be short. Little stories, quick RPs that don't necessarily have to go for long. I think "quick writes" would be good for test-driving new characters, odd or quirky situations, little bits of character building, seeing how well two characters get along, establishing an acquaintance between two characters that could be built upon later in other threads, and small slice-of-life events and everyday moments (not every thread has to be epic). That's the intent, and I want to see how it works. Join me and let's see.
