"wait What!?" Allura Stared, Bewildered By Her Paladins.

"wait what!?" Allura stared, bewildered by her paladins.

"do you guys not get diseases?" Pidge asked, staring at her. Allura stuttered.

"we-well of course we do! But they're so rare and dangerous, outbreaks only happen every few thousand years!" Allura stated, making pidge rain an eyebrow.

"really? That's weird. We have thousands of disea-"

"thousands!?"

"-ses on Earth, but only a few are really classified as a plauge." Pidge declared.

"well, what cl-classifies as a plauge?" Allura asked, dumbfounded at how non-chalant pidge was

"oh, well, the most 'popular' or well known one is the black death, or bubonic plauge. It was cause by fleas that carried yersinia pestis. They would attach rats and mice, and then when the animal died, they would latch onto humans, evidentially spreading it all throughout the middle East." Pidge explained, leaving allura both shocked and confused.

"how did you know they had it?" She asked.

"oh, well it's called the bubonic plauge cause it would cause limphnodes to swell to sizes of what, chicken eggs?" Pidge pondered for a second. "I think that's it. Anyways, the limphnodes would swell, and other symptoms were fevers, chills, fatigue, headaches, and the grossest one, necrosis on fingers, toes, and noses." She stated.

"what's necrosis?" Allura asked, and pidge cringed.

"basically, necrosis is when the skin cells start..." She paused, thinking deeply. "Promise me you won't start screeching?" She looked at allura, who nodded I'm affirmation, curious as to why she needed to promise.

"okay. So basically, the skin cells start dying. You loose all feeling in them, and they start decaying completely, even if you're still alive." Allura looked horrified.

"WHAT THE-" she yelled, but pidge cut her off.

"yup. It's gross, but at least we can treat it now. When the black death happened, it killed a third of Europe. It got so bad that there were dead bodies just lying in the streets. There was no cure for it back then, and nobody knew what was causing it." Pidge said. "There are also less 'popular' ones than that one, like Taburculosis, which causes your skin to become pale, you're emaciated, and you cough up blood. Or Colera, a water faring disease which sucks up all the hydration in your system within 24 hours, leaving you so dehydrated you start dying very quickly, though it only occures when drinking extremely gross and dirty water-"

"WHAT THE ABSOLUTE FUCK!?"

Mindfulness can be useful for literally E V E R Y O N E, but I found it particularly helpful for anxiety– this exercise got me out of the house and functioning again.   °˖✧*•  Shop, Patreon, Book, Mailing List *•. ✧˖°`
