Fourth Diagnosis; Written

[likesroleplay]

So is the Castle prone to messing with family dynamics? Is that something I should come to expect or what? Because first it gave me a baby with Haymitch of all people, and then it threw me in this strange family and if this is the sort of thing they do all the time here, well I guess I have no choice but to get used to it.

At least I shouldn't have to worry about any family the castle provides me with being quite as messed up as my actual parents are. A family reunion without my mother sneaking off with the caterers? Always a plus in my books.

Still, I think I'm beginning to see what people meant by this place sucking. We never had magic or anything like this back home. As much as some of my friends seemed disappointed by that fact, I can't help but wonder if we weren't maybe better off.

[Dairine is going to ignore the magic talk right now in favor of focusing on what's clearly the most important part of this statement.]

Wait, wait, wait. Back up for just a minute.

You had a baby with Haymitch? As in crabby, drinks-all-the-booze-ever Haymitch?

Not willingly! I guess the castle stuck a lot of people with kids that week, and decided the people to stick a baby with should include me and Haymitch. I'm not sure why, other then maybe a sick sense of humor.

Oh yes, the castle children. That was an interesting week.

You have my condolences.

[Haymitch, on the other hand, is going to be teased mercilessly about this.]

Haymitch the drunk?

Are there any other ones?

Ha ha. (Very dryly.) He must have just loved you.

[likesroleplay]

No, I think he couldn't stand me, honestly. He was always calling he crazy.

[not_like_the_rest]

Crazy and annoying? That's just a home run for him then.

[likesroleplay]

Well, there was a lot of other insults in there too, he seemed to have a never ending supply of them, honestly, but that was the gist of it.

[not_like_the_rest]

He's fun like that. Later, crazy.

Look on the bright side. Death's not permanent here. [ No need to feel guilty about a patient dying. Always a plus point. ]

...There is that! I mean, that's good, right? At least if we can't save someone, it's not permanent.

Yup. I'm just hoping House hasn't been taking advantage of the fact. He's been known to do some really, and I mean really, crazy stuff back home with the patients. Don't get me wrong, they usually work out fine in the end, but... it can get a bit much sometimes.

....You know Dr. House from home? [There's a tone of sympathy in her voice. Her experiences with him have not been great so far.]
