Ah ha, I think even Kai would be impressed at Kilian's fighting skills. Because I sure as hell am! XD Though I dunno, what do you think, Kuro? The fighting has been happening in the Shin-Ra tower.

OUCH, that must suck! I'm sorry D= Get that wrapped up, or... actually, whatever helps, seeing as I am probably not the best to ask about burns...
No worries, we know you will!

That's good. I had a burn on the side of my elbow once, but it was from a really really REALLY hot lightbulb. I still have the scar, and it happened like two years ago XD
So what has been going on with Kai? XD Because he like missed the best fight eva, lolol. Though you dun have to answer that, I'm just happy that my fighting roleplaying skills are improving.

Yeah, no kidding. The whole scabbed-over burn was the side of twice the size of a dollar coin. XD;; The scar is now the size of a normal dollar coin.
LOL, and he didn't invite Kilian to the hot springs... looks like they're even XD

Hehe. You don't put ice on burns!! As much as you'd like to it makes it worse! If you have any Aloe Vera in the house, put that on where you got the burn.
Nice to know stuff about it.
Aloe vera is used for treating a wide range of conditions like diabetes, constipation, psoriasis, burns, and wounds.
Aloe Vera Benefits:
Aloe Vera leaves have a load of minerals, amino acids, and vitamins. It is a well known anti-inflammatory and has antibacterial and antifungal properties.
How to Use Aloe Vera in Your Diet:
Aloe Vera is available in many forms like liquid extracts, gels, dry extracts, and juices. There are many Aloe vera recipes.
You can supplement your diet with aloea vera juice, which is made from aloe vera gel. Aloe vera juice helps achieve weight loss and keeps the digestive system healthy. A mixture of fruit juice, water, and aloe vera juice can be taken every day; it acts as a detoxifying agent.

Cool the burn. Hold the burned area under cool (not cold) running water for 10 or 15 minutes or until the pain subsides. If this is impractical, immerse the burn in cool water or cool it with cold compresses. Cooling the burn reduces swelling by conducting heat away from the skin. Don't put ice on the burn.
Cover the burn with a sterile gauze bandage. Don't use fluffy cotton, or other material that may get lint in the wound. Wrap the gauze loosely to avoid putting pressure on burned skin. Bandaging keeps air off the burn, reduces pain and protects blistered skin.
Take an over-the-counter pain reliever. These include aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others), naproxen (Aleve) or acetaminophen (Tylenol, others). Use caution when giving aspirin to children or teenagers. Though aspirin is approved for use in children older than age 2, children and teenagers recovering from chickenpox or flu-like symptoms should never take aspirin. Talk to your doctor if you have concerns.
Minor burns usually heal without further treatment. They may heal with pigment changes, meaning the healed area may be a different color from the surrounding skin. Watch for signs of infection, such as increased pain, redness, fever, swelling or oozing. If infection develops, seek medical help. Avoid re-injuring or tanning if the burns are less than a year old — doing so may cause more extensive pigmentation changes. Use sunscreen on the area for at least a year.
Caution
Don't use ice. Putting ice directly on a burn can cause a burn victim's body to become too cold and cause further damage to the wound.
Don't apply butter or ointments to the burn. This could cause infection.
Don't break blisters. Broken blisters are more vulnerable to infection.

used to have an aloe plant...but uh..we kinda killed it last year to treat sunburns.. sweatdrop
glad I didn't ice it right away... still had work to do for another hour.. I did run cool water over it though.. and by icing it I meant, had a ziplock baggie with some water and icecubes after getting home. switched to coldpack after seeing the baggie was getting things rather wet..
it's a nice, non-painful bubble now.

Haha, uh oh! A new Facebook addict!
Haha, you can just call me Aerith. S'what everyone mostly calls me. xD But hmm..I'm trying to avoid using to many characters right now, as to not get people stuck since I been going afk a lot lately and just not in the mind set to RP certain characters. lol. I'd say he's probably there in one of the rooms, which ever he picked out or maybe gone somewhere in Midgar? lol.

M'kay, I wondered because I was wondering if I should have Hikaru run through the whole house, looking. xD But she won't now, lol. I can understand the reason. Though right now, I'm wanting to roleplay as much as I can before the 15th comes along, because I'll be jumping on the plane and heading to see my bf in his hometown, Minneapolis {I can't believe I spelled that right on the first go o.o}. He has a 10-day leave, woo!
