Where...? Oh, right. The clinic. ...Damn. Did it hurt this much before? These wings...really sensitive.

...I'm really out of it, huh? But...but thanks. Lloyd, and Kratos...hope you didn't wear yourself out o-on my account. ...A-And Lavi...and Daisya. ...For talking. Think I owe you a lot.

'S easier to breathe, too. D-Did someone...?

[[ooc: We welcome visitors! You'll have to talk your way through (or sneak past) the clinic-people, though.]]

[The last time this happened, good stuff did not follow, remember]
Who's there?

[pokes head through the door, smiling cheerfully, though it's probably easy to tell he's still worried]

Hey, Sheena. Feeling any better?

[corrinesbell]

[an obvious look of 'thank Martel it's you']
Yeah, kinda. I guess. [looks away, off to the side] Is, uh...Kratos okay?

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

He says he is, but you know him...

How's your wing?

[corrinesbell]

Mm...not gonna lie. It hurts. ...Don't break yours.

[she still won't look at him]

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

I wasn't planning on it.

[pulls up a chair beside the bed, sitting on it backwards, leaning his arms on the backrest]

[corrinesbell]

How'd you get in? They've been...trying to keep everyone out.

[to say nothing for some people's creative means of entry]

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

Hey, a hospital's nothing compared to a Desian base.

[corrinesbell]

[oh, that's funny. So she laughs. ...Sorta.]

Uh...listen, I-I'm...really sorry.

[because she's been waiting all this time for a lecture]

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

I said already, don't apologize. If they want to take you, there's not much you can do about it...

[because, well, he has experience in this now.]

[corrinesbell]

No kidding. ...Still. You guys worried. ...I should've k-kept running.

[kid-in-red.livejournal.com]

Of course we worried. We're your friends.

[corrinesbell]

I know. That's the point. ...I'm not making much sense, am I?
