If I've leaned two things from anime and manga, it's that the common Japanese cold is potentially lethal, and that the best thing to do for someone who's fallen unconscious (for any reason) is to grab them firmly by the shoulders and shake them violently while yelling their name.
This feels like watamote, tomiko fuses with that annoying elf from that one anime/manga to create a level of patheticness. I'm routing for the childhood friend here.
