Faction: E2 Sick and Tired

M'la leans over to whisper in Pyrus's ear.

M'la then stands straight again. "Calm down, Pyrus. All any of us cared about was making you well again. And once that is done, you should probably leave. The powers that be don't want you here. But it just so happens your timing is good... I've been kicked out too. So I can get you wherever you might need to go. For now, though, we just have a few more checks to make sure you'll be OK. Alright?"

Neenalia chuckled nervously as she carefully took the rock with the tongs once it was wrapped, now having to use both hands "I'll take you at your word Hamilton" said with a wink before disappearing to place the rock at the safe(r) place that is the X-Ray room, then will return removing her glove and checking her hand to make sure it isn't swelling or anything.

"Alright friend, so.. who are we gonna call then?" she will approach to give Pyrus a gentle petting to his head with the hand not currently under scrutiny. "And we probably should perform a checkup before you are made to leave.. make sure you'll be okay"

At first Pyrus is shocked and horrified by what M'la whispered to him.  If even a Blissian is eager for his planet to get their hands on it...  No wait.  Maybe he should give a guy who helped save his arm the benefit of the doubt.

"Lotta firsts for me today.  Like feeling sick.  And tired.  Never felt that way before.  Your 'powers that be' are smart for wanting to get rid of me.  As for who to call...  Me, I guess.  Not sure what you could even check up on.  Just gimme a minute to..."

He yawns.  "Yeah.  Me an you, bunny.  We figure out a good way to smuggle the Heart outta here and..."

Another big yawn.  "Wow.  Am I gunna fall asleep for the first time ever?  Wonder if I can dream.  I could really go for something with some kick to it.  Don't suppose any of you have a small reactor core laying around I could snack on..."

M'la says, "Sorry... don't have any of those handy. How much would lava or other such hot things do for you?"

He looks back at Neena. "Looks like we'll be moving him sooner than later for his own sake anyway. His requirements are well outside of what a hospital has to offer."

Neenalia exhaled with relief seeing that her patient was recovering and looking much better now, also her hand seemed to be fine too.

"Alright, you seem to be doing much better, but if sleeping isn't normal for you, perhaps.. we should remain wary?" She tried to explore and inspect Pyrus, get a reading on his temperatures "can you please move your extremities so we can check they are okay? any remaining discomfort? Also, do you happen to know what's your healthy temperature range?"

She gave M'la a glance "well i'd like to make sure he is doing fine before any attempts at moving, how much time do we have left?"

"A lava bath would be great!" Pyrus cheers, "But any source of high heat would be good if you don't have any volcanoes handy.  Blowtorch?  Some thermite?  (That stuff's hot even for me, so I can't have too much or I start getting hyper.)  Even an arc welder...  (Gotta be real careful with that one, though.)"

As asked, he tries to move for Neenalia.  His wings and one arm are perfectly fine, but the reattached arm barely moves at all.  Everything below the chest is moving slow and stiffly.

"About two thousand degrees on the inside.  I start getting really hungry below fifteen hundred.  Discomfort?  Heck yeah!  But feeling a zillion times better than just a few minutes ago."

M'la looks at his watch and says, "We safely have another sixty minutes."

He then nods. "An arc welder? One of the maintenance guys might have one. In the meantime, I think I could put some Thermite together, but that will take an hour and a half once I have the ingredients."

He looks back at Neenalia. "I'll go look for that arc welder and hopefully collect what I need for the thermite while I'm at it. You just see what you can do in the immediate vicinity to feed him some heat."

"w-wait, what? feed what? i dont know the composition of things, i dont want to provide anything that could explode as he stated earlier.. . and im sure there's plenty of materials that are hospital property we cant provide..." she bites her lower lip and adjusts her facemask. "hn.."

She looks around the room then back to Pyrus "im gonna check on your health first before we get you anything to eat, alright? Priorities.." she sighs and resumed her exploration of his body, at the very least she wants to make sure that reattached leg isnt gonna fall off again.

"Where do you normally get nourishment? It could be of great help if you could suggest a place.."

Pyrus tail wags and smiles at M'la.  "Thanks!  Oh hey, don't you guys have hot knives for cauterizing or something?  That's probably hot enough!"

He gives Neenalia an apologetic look.  "Eating is healing for me.  Unless it's a cursed stone that freezes my insides.  Rocks are like protein, energy sources are like carbs.  Where I usually eat?  Gun stores, I guess.  Since my main snack is blaster ammo clips.  But I figure your security guys won't want to donate any without asking lots of questions.  And I really don't wunna cause a fuss."

The reattached arm looks like it was welded on by an over-zealous modern artist with an industrial welding torch.  Not pretty, but it would take a great amount of force to break it off.  Perhaps the body process that allowed for the reattachment also acts as a sort of cast to keep the joint immobilized while the wound repairs itself.  The frigid coldness is gone from the belly area and his lower half is no longer stiff.  The throb that passes for Pyrus' heartbeat has quickened to 50 beats per minute.  Which is still quite slow for creatures his size.  Biological creatures, anyway.  His movements that look like breathing and the rate at which he blinks appear to be normal, though.  Weird because there's little chance he has lungs or tear glands in the traditional sense.

M'la exits the room. Hamilton continues to help as best he can, but... he honestly has no clue what he's supposed to do, so just follows Neenalia's lead of checking Pyrus over so he is at LEAST on the same page.

He goes to heat up a disposable tool in hopes that it will help Pyrus at least a little and offers it to the dragon. "Try not munching? I can re-heat it... unless you think the metal would be good for you too?"

"Well i wouldn't eat any cutting tools for they may be heat resistant and not burst.. but they are still sharp and could hurt you, so be careful. I remember you mentioned granite, thankfully that's rather common... until then tho, hmm.." she frowns "would a propane torch work? the hospital is undergoing some changes so i wouldnt be surprised if we can get our hands on some too..."

She snaps her fingers "we'll try that if we can, im sure a worker may be cooperative if we give him.. a tip" she winks "How much time left do we have tho?"

"Thanks!"

Pyrus noms on the heated tool like it's a lollipop.  He headshakes at the question about metal being good for him and hands the tool back after sucking the heat out.

"Not this stainless steel stuff, no.  Passes right through me.  But copper, brass, bronze, gold...  Stuff like that makes for good seasoning.  But after that freeze I just got, all I care about is warming up, really."

He takes one of the rocks that M'la brought earlier and chews it up as easily as a nut.  He smiles and tail-wags at Neenalia.

"Bunny faid fixfty minutef *gulp* like five minutes ago.  Propane'd be great, thanks!  And I promise to be careful.  Makes for a fun party trick if I chug it, but...  not everyone appreciates five foot flames shooting outta my mouth for a couple seconds.  Alcohol'd be just as good if you've got the pure stuff.  Like 70% pure or better.  Any less and it just turns me into a steam engine.  Choo choo!"

M'la re-enters the room with an arch welder. "...not a thing I'm used to carrying..." he mutters quietly.

He looks at Neenalia with a sheepish grin. "I uh... managed to find an arch welder."

He looks at Pyrus. "Please tell me this doesn't have the potential to injure you..."

Neenalia rested her hands on her hips with a heavy sigh, finally managing to relax a little bit. The strange stone was secured, their patient seemed to recover at a miraculous speed, she didn't lose an arm... so far so good. Her legs were trembling a little from the rush now finally leaving her body and she desperately needed a smoke, but that's gotta wait.

"Brilliant find M'la" she smiles and gave a nod towards him then moved to find a bottle of alcohol to disinfect equipment, then a quick check around the room to make sure there are no burning hazards or worse, explosive ones. No oxygen or other containers in proximity, valves and the like. "We have some ethanol.., we've got so much of this it shouldn't be an issue. Alright, once you are done with the welder take a chug of this if you like, yeah?"

Her ears twitched and fluttered a little, in a better mood now. "And of course update us if you feel anything strange again"

Pyrus head-shakes to M'la's question.  "No more than water has the potential to injure you.  Y'all know you could drown in just a glass full of the stuff, and yet you'll also heat it scalding hot and add dried beans that tweaks your mental state for good measure.  It'll be fine.  And thanks!"

He accepts the torch and powers it up like a pro.  He carefully noms on the end like a mix between smoking a pipe and sipping piping hot coffee, then will occasionally spit out bits of welding rod onto the tray.

When offered the ethanol with "chug" given the green light, Pyrus licks his lips, smiles, and tail-wags.  After a deep exhale, he guzzles down the entire bottle!  His expression contorts in in a sort of, "I'm drinking a mix of supercooled pure lemon juice mixed with pure cayenne pepper extract," way.  Deep inhale, slow exhale combined with gouts of barely visible pale blue flames licking out of mouth and nose.  A dreamy, satisfied look crosses his face.  "Ah that feels so goood."

M'la exhales and says, "What a relief..." showing he had been holding his breathe / nerves this whole time but had disguised it. But the doctors at the hospital know this is just how M'la is. He acts calm on the outside for everyone else's sake and then cools off when danger is past.

He smiles at Neenalia and Hamilton. "Well done on working together under pressure in the interest of the patient."

He looks at Pyrus. "How are your joints now? You moving better? Take it slow, OK...?"

She felt like she wanted to just sit down, her legs trembling with a bit of relief after all the sudden chaos and worry now finally finding release and things apparently being alright.

"We definitely need to share a drink after all this..." she said with a soft sigh, smiling as she watches the patient eat and recover rather nicely, adjusting her mask to cover her lips, a bit self conscious now that she is not so focused.

"Is there anything else requiring our immediate attention Dr Hamilton?" she asked with her hands returning to her pockets

Pyrus wiggles his fingers and toes back and forth just fine, but when trying to rotating his shoulders, the injured one is sluggish and grinds.  He grimaces in pain and takes a few deep breaths.

"I usually heal up faster than this.  Guess I got no choice but to take it slow.  I'll prolly be fine in a few minutes."

Pyrus takes a few more hits from the arc welder.

"I'd offer to buy drinks, but..."

His eyes shift between the doctors.  "I'd probably need to borrow a communicator.  Left my wallet behind.  What planet is this, by the way?"

Hamilton says, "There are other patients. Given Pyrus is on the mend and is no longer an emergency, please move him to recovery and I'll get to work on the next patient."

M'la nods and says to Pyrus and Neenalia, "I'll be with you two." and begins wheeling Pyrus to the recovery area.

"Don't worry, can go for a drink at another time once you are feeling fully recovered and our shift is over" she offered a friendly wink "focus on yourself now~" she approached closer and whispers "If you feel ill again or have other health related questions, you can give me a call and i'll try to help you as best as i can" she said writing her number on the tag she had wrapped around his ankle/wrist earlier.

"See you around M'la, you know where to find me" said before moving to change gloves, mask and clear the room for the next patient.

Pyrus figures his question about what planet he's on must've been taken as a joke.  "Like for real.  What planet is this?"

When M'la starts wheeling him away he points urgently at the wrapped-up Heart.  "Not without that thing.  I can't in good conscious let it outta my sight."

To Neenalia he smiles and tail-wags.  "Thanks!  I really owe ya.  You deserve a real reward that's more than just words.  The kind you can spend!"

When Pyrus goes to point at the wrapped up Heart, he sees a black cat picking it up. She gives him a smile with her eyelids barely open to reveal her glowing purple eyes. She is petting the heart of stone and it is seemingly... beating. She puts a finger over her mouth as she locks eyes with him.

Pyrus notices time is stopped. M'la and Neenalia frozen in time along with everyone and everything else. "Don't worry about the heart anymore, little one. Worry about your friends. I'll be taking back what is mine now."

She picks up the heart, steps backward into a shadow and vanishes.

Suddenly, time returns to normal.

"Well, if you are decided on spending money, you can always buy me a coffee some day, i need the caffeine, specially during interesting days like today" she  gave Pyrus a friendly 'finger guns' and turns to check on the stone-

-and blinks when just like M'la states, she also has a question on where the stone has gone "wha.. it was there, right there i swear, you saw it right??" she rushes into the spot and began to look around, checking every corner and then peeking quickly outside of the room

"Where is it?? I didn't see anyone enter!" she rises her voice, distressed "maybe we should contact authorities, this.. this is getting crazier by the minute"

Pyrus was dumbstruck, frozen in an expression that was a mix of... about to laugh or scream in horror.

"Well.  Um..."

How do you even...  Without sounding crazy.  Or talking about the dark goddess who just shushed you?  Pyrus shakes his head to try and clear his face of his dumb look.

"It's OK, everyone.  The uh... failsafe.  Triggered.  It's now back where it belongs.  And not my problem anymore, thank goodness.  Still.  Probably best to not talk about the darned thing.  Word gets out that you ever saw it... ruthless meanies might torture you for answers on where it went."

He flops back and lets out a sigh.  "Still don't know what planet I'm on, but if I'm treating anyone to coffee...  Oh right.  There's that Ollencorp account I opened for the free stuff they give.  Everyone's got an Ollencorp ATM, right?"
