the Lord is waitin' to take your hand

[ He didn't notice immediately. He had some pills left over. It wasn't until two days after he was himself again that he knew. He wished for a bottle of Vicodin. Nothing materialized. Nothing fell from the air. No ghost came in bearing one. He wished for a pill. Nothing again. When he ducked inside the supply closet where the narcotics are kept under lock, he uncapped the white bottle there and shook a few pills into his palm. Their color was off. He popped one into his mouth and spat it back out. Sugar. His pills turned into sugar.

That had been yesterday. He fled the clinic the moment the symptoms began. He has no desire to be seen in this state by those incompetent fools. He doesn't want their false sympathy or their judgment. The hell do they know? Nothing. Everyone there is the same. Simpering. Worthless. Stupid.

He had found an empty room to hide in, which is where he is. However, his loss had kicked in with a vengeance. He recognizes the signs of withdrawal, but they're sharper now. His leg feels like it is on fire. As if the pain wasn't debilitating enough, the blind panic robs him of what little sense he has left. It's dark and it's stifling and a trapped feeling lies slickly on his skin, slithers into his veins, settles heavily into his heaving tissues, screaming.

He just wants a pill. He just needs a pill. Just one.

He can't be alone anymore.

Pulling his journal toward him, he flips it open.

You better be up.

Come on.


Watson, you idiot.

I'm on my way.

[Which he is! He grabs his medical bag and heading straight for that room. He'll knock and then see if the door is open]

[His eyes widen just slightly when he sees House. Normally, it would be even wider eyes but man when you spent all of yesterday cleaning up a four day old corpse...well, you're looking pretty good House next to that]

Ah- yes, of course.

[He wishes for a bottle. What the hell is this about?]
save_the_souls: (I...what is going on in here?)

[...Standing right in front of that door that's been slammed on his face]

[What. just. happened.]

[He tries wishing for another bottle of Vicodin and breaks open a pill just to lick a tiny portion - grimacing when he gets the nasty medicine taste. Yep, definitely not sugar. He tosses away the half pill and shoves the bottle into his pocket, opening the door and walking in]

I'm sorry, but what is going on?
save_the_souls: (huff)

Why did the pill turn to sugar?
save_the_souls: (listening intently)

[He bites his lip, a bit frustrated]

What about other types of painkillers?

[He only flinches very slightly at the glass shattering. A long pause]

What is it that's causing you pain? The leg...or being unable to take those pills?
save_the_souls: (life is a battlefield)

[He stares right back]

So the latter then.
save_the_souls: (huff)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2012-06-15 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
And what will you do?

[he'll give him a minute of silence before speaking up again]

Well?

[Ugh...]

[He's turning to go]
