sloooowwwpooookkkkeeee [written/action]
[Silver is Silver is Silver. Upon finally waking up, he immediately tries to pull himself up... And it's a bad idea. His head spins. Despite the fact that he's awake, he's still very weak, and trying to act like he's not gave him a big reminder of that. He rethinks his actions and slowly pulls himself up into a seated position.
So where is he? What time is it? How long has he been out? ...Where's his journal? That's the most important thing right now, he has to-
There it is.]
[His handwriting is downright awful, but it's legible, especially since he's slow enough about it. And he only has one thing to say.]
Is it over yet? None of you died, right?
[The you is directed at the people he knows, but he is far too drained to make that distinction or ask much else. ...Might be a good idea to let him know just how late to the party he is.
Or visit him. There's always the visiting option, although that option might not be pretty; as long as it's been, it still doesn't change the fact that he more or less looks like he's about to die, like he won't open his eyes if he closes them again. He barely even has the energy to hold himself upright.
But company would be nice, especially since he's... Not exactly going anywhere. He has his Pokémon, of course, they're all but hovering over him because he's okay and he's finally awake (jeez guys, calm down,) and he even has Chandelure in his arms (because he needs to be reassured that everything's alright and that he Did Good,) but it would be reassuring to see that everyone's, you know. Okay.
And absolutely not the other way around, because he's totally just tired.
Yep.]

I'd ask a question now, but I worry you'd die from lack of oxygen.
[Action]
But he knows Shikamaru is right. Not to mention he's sick]

[Action]
What's, up dizzy spell, when did you get here. Hey vision, please come back to him.
Okay. Okay. Leaning back. Breathing. Wait your vision to come back. Easy. Something to drink. He has something to drink, right? Yeah. Drinking. Drinking is nice.
This really sucks.]
[Action]
Shikamaru's feet come from off the bed without a word, and he reaches with his good arm for a thermos he saw sitting there. Here you go, Silver.]
[Action]
[Masaomi doesn't move. There's just a lightly forced smile on his lips]
[Action]
It was this or death. I took the option with a chance at survival.
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
But I get the picture.

[If Masaomi's trying to indicate something by tapping at his ear, it's completely lost on him. He lacks the awareness to pay it any mind. Even if he did, well... Jewels and items don't protect people from crazy illnesses. Nothing could have prepared him for that.
But next time he'll do better. He has to do better. He has to keep moving forward.]

It was one. It was just one. We barely got Raven outta dealing with one and kept heading towards the evac.
We were exhausted. She had a limp. Our Pokémon were wiped. Another three showed up.
So I made this guy here burn my life energy for ghost fuel. Turns out that when you suddenly flash a gigantic amount of bright purple fire everywhere, it catches a lotta attention.
I know we incinerated at least ten more before we got to safety. Everything got really black and hazy towards the end.
Now quit calling bullshit. I don't do bed rest for only a couple of messed up sick people. [So maybe he's a little blunt and lacking in sympathy right now. So maybe he's a little touchy because Gold was giving him heat for it. It's still true.]
[Action]
He can understand perfectly the situation (knows it intimately from the other side because he's sat beside one too many hospital beds in his life). And it's this understanding that has him hold his tongue until the end. His voice is one level too calm.]
Did I say I was talking about then? Look. In your shoes, if I were out of options, I might do the same thing. Regardless what comes out of this guy's mouth [Masaomi] he might have too.
[Because he knows from his gut that Masaomi has that potential. If it has been Linda? No second chances for her. Isn't that why he sent her back?]
But this isn't about this time or even about what we would do. This is about next time. Next time, be better prepared. If you're not helped by precautions then, you didn't take enough of them.
[And he knows you're smart enough to do that, Silver.]
[Action]
[Quietly, irreverently, mostly to himself. He sort of glances at the ghost lantern if it's in the room, rolling his eyes lightly]
[Action]

...he is a lot younger than them. The age different between them is the same he has with Konohamaru.]
[Action]
Shikamaru knows he'll get it later on though. If not on his own, something will make it click just at the right time. He holds his hand out for the thermos instead, if Silver is done with it, as a peace offering.]
[Action]
[Action]
It's really tempting to be petty about it, but... He relents and shakily hands his empty thermos over to Shikamaru.]
I know you're right. [And that I'm not allowed to be frustrated.]
[Action]
Worry about it later.
[Action]
[He can't help it.
He can't help but be irreverent]
