28th Death

[twisted_baroque]

[Dextera's handwritting is a bit shaky today for some reason.]

Is it okay if someone came to the lobby? I thi...

[but the pen slides out of his hand before he can finish writing and there's the sound of the journal hitting the floor along with Dextera's unconscious body. looks like the weird blobs got someone else.]


[ooc: open in the lobby if anyone wants to drag the mute to the clinic!]

I think there would be more, if it occurred to him to ask...

[blabs]

[ she thinks about that. probably yes. dextera's world is Weird, after all. she glances up at felix, and then tilts her head. ]

Hey, don't I know you?

[lord_wizard]

[He frowns, clearly not sure if he remembers her]

It's possible. I have been here awhile.

[blabs]

I guess I've been here a while, too, if almost-a-year counts as a while... [ squinting more. ] Yeah, I've definitely seen you more than once before.

[lord_wizard]

[He thinks a moment] You went on the last expedition, didn't you?

[blabs]

[ she makes a face. ]

Yeah, I did. Blehhh. That turned out great.

[lord_wizard]

Yes...

[Meaning, no, not really.

He pauses as they approach the clinic]

I might recommend...giving the next one a miss...

[blabs]

[ she is sorta planning a secret trip with a friend, but shhh. ]

Why? Are you guys going some place new?

[lord_wizard]

What? ...No. Not that I aware at least. But I'm there will be others, I'm sure...

[He'll make sure of that fact if he has to, even if he probably won't go himself.

Felix walks into the clinic and hands Dextera off to one of the doctors, a grim, worried expression on his face]

[blabs]

[ she bites her lip, and hangs back to watch them do their thing. ]

[lord_wizard]

[A few minutes later and Felix returns with a sigh]

Well, that's it then...

[blabs]

[ she frowns ]

So he's just like the others? And we gotta wait?

[lord_wizard]

[He nods]

So it would seem.

[blabs]

[ sad face... she watches the doctors, then sits in the nearest chair. ]

I'm just going to wait here for a while.

[lord_wizard]

[He nods]

Suit yourself.

[He moves to leave, then pauses]

What was your name again?

[blabs]

[ absently: ] Annie-Lou. You're Phoenix or Felix or something, right?

[lord_wizard]

The second one.

Would do me a favor, Annie-Lou, and inform me if he wakes up?

[blabs]

Yeah, I can do that, I don't mind at all. When he wakes up.

[lord_wizard]

...of course.

[He wishes he could be that optimistic]

I'll speak to you later.

[And away he goes...]

[blabs]

[ she gives his back a little forlorn look, and resumes watching. bai. ]
