Farewell Happy Fields!

☯

What: Aftermath of Anoli Attack: Hospital
Where: Leo Ward - Caduceus Hospital Headquarters
Summary: It is the aftermath of the Anoli attack on the Closing Ceremonies. The injured have been taken to Caduceus Hospital Headquarters, and it is time for reflection, visting, or old-fashioned escapes from the hospital rooms.
Warnings: Mild squick if people want to describe their wounds in explicit detail.

Caduceus Hospital Headquarters. It has a distinguished history within Hinoto-Ri, boasting of a staff of well-trained Healers, as well as possessing the most cutting edge medical technology possible. There was no limb they couldn't reattach, no organ they couldn't replace... - they even claimed to be able to bring someone back from the dead (with the small disclaimer that it could only occur under certain conditions and with an obscene amount of luck).

So needless to say, the hospital was more than well-equipped to deal with the aftermath of the Anoli attack on the Closing Ceremonies.

---

Nearly every hospital bed had been filled by an injured patient that night. The A&E room had been in constant chaos, with civilians crying and shouting, searching for loved ones, or demanding to see doctors or healers to help so-and-so...

There had also been plenty of reporters milling about, shouting and crying over the status of the Mayor's Secretary, and whether the Red Lion had really died at the scene, or if he was still alive and well within the safety of the hospital's ICU.

By the time morning broke, there was a false sense of tranquillity within the hospital. The healers had been pushed to their limits with the sheer number of patients being wheeled in and out of surgery, but otherwise, the situation had finally gotten under control. Now, both civilians and visitors were merely waiting for word of the conditions of their injured friends and family...

[Welcome to the winding down of the event! You are now at the hospital, where you may be visiting the injured, or be one of the injured yourself! Those with RED injuries will be in the ICU, and those with YELLOW injures will be in normal wards, for obvious reasons. Those with GREEN injuries wouldn't have had to go to the hospital at all, so they are free to come and go as they wish!

You may all start your threads and mingle!]

[He shrugs then, if she's confident in getting in then she's confident.]

Lead the way then, Miss Mia.

[beautifulmemory]

[Lead the way, she shall! She pauses as she sees the construction and the rescue efforts, getting quite a good look from a distance at first.]

A simple code can't be reset... so they have to build it by hand. Right?

[prototype_blues]

Right. The world isn't a huge computer that you can just mess around with when it stops working right, so fixing things take time.

[And skills, and people who have the time and skills to do all that. But he doesn't say those parts, they're implied.]

[beautifulmemory]

But if a piece breaks, it's less likely for the whole thing to fall apart. And it has a deeper meaning.

[She starts walking around, giving the air a slight sniff. It was still pretty smoky, and there was a lot of activity.]

Hmm... I can probably only get through during that peculiar time. When things are lit strangely... then I can go wherever I so please.

[prototype_blues]

[Blues just makes a "hm" sound now. He hasn't actually done anything during the 13th hour himself, "sleeping" during that time for... health reasons.]

Then it'd probably be best to come back then, right?

[beautifulmemory]

Probably. But there is a lot of things to explore during that time... if you're careful about the monsters. Though, I manage well enough to keep them away.

...So! What do you think would be interesting to look at?

[prototype_blues]

[Something interesting? he... can't really think of much.]

Uhm. Not really, a city is a city to me.

[beautifulmemory]

Then I'll show you something that's appeared. It's familiar to me. Nothing special. But maybe you'll find it interesting.

Are you ready to go to Aries District?

[prototype_blues]

[What. Wait, what.

IS THIS A DATE?!]

Ah, um. Sure?

[Awkwards all over the place now.]

[beautifulmemory]

[If it is, expect a very prissy little kid getting passive aggressive at you...??]

Alright. It's time to try this rail system.

[TRANSIT. It's a strange thing. Buuuut she'll lead him aaaall the way to the Aries district... and towards the little islands. She points out towards the middle of the water, where there's a slightly misty island silhouetted.]

There. We have to find a way to go over there. I recognize the shape, so I didn't bother going, but you might find it interesting.

[prototype_blues]

[Woo, TRANSIT. Blues isn't used to actually riding inside most forms of transit or having the other passengers being aware he's there so brand new world woo!

And when they get to where she wants them to be he actually leans forwards and squints. Not that Mia can see that.]

No boats? And you can't swim, I'm guessing?

[And with his core how it is, he wouldn't risk going into water anyway.]

[beautifulmemory]

...Boats! Right. Although I've never used one, I've seen them floating around Mac Anu.

[There was often a very grouchy and reflective blademaster riding them. Sometimes he'd bother her...]

Help me look. We'll get over there with one. It'll be fun.

[prototype_blues]

Never used one either, been on one before though.

[Oh man, he's sort of hoping they don't find a boat just because neither of them know how to steer one.

What if it sinks?]

Alright, I can do that. Look for one I mean.

[beautifulmemory]

[No such concerns from Mia! She starts looking for one lying around. It can't be that difficult...]

I've found one.

[A little rowboat! She doesn't even wait, going right ahead and climbing into it.]

Come on! Let's go.

[prototype_blues]

[WELL... that was easy, Blues will join her by the little boat and go about trying to get in it after her.]

Being hasty won't do you any go-- [Whoop, looks like the Unlucky Arcana kicked in as mid-sentence, and mid-getting on the boat, his foot gets caught on the edge of the boat and...

instead of ending up in the boat, and possibly doing damage to it, Blues ends up in the water with a big splash.]

[beautifulmemory]

[Mia laughs spiritedly, after making sure she didn't fall out. She looks over the edge, smirking down at him.]

Don't damage yourself.

[prototype_blues]

[Thank goodness the water isn't too deep near the shore, or else he'd have sunk to the bottom and Mia wouldn't be getting a response back.]

I wasn't planning to.

[He stands up, bringing a hand to his face and Mia may hear a slight "ugh" from him and... it looks like some sparks? are coming from him too.

If a robot could look ill? Blues is looking it, while soaking wet.]

... Maybe you can show me the thing out there some other time?

[beautifulmemory]

Hah. Come here.

[She holds her hand out to him!]

[prototype_blues]

No, I need to go.

[He shakes his head, which ow, bad idea as he ignores her offered hand and makes his way back onto the shore.

The fact he's even telling her he needs to leave is better than what he'd normally do, which is just take off.]

[beautifulmemory]

[She hops off, grabbing his hand and pulling it towards her.]

Not yet. Let me see. Show me what's damaged.

[And she's not letting go, even though she fully expects a violent and loud reaction.]

[prototype_blues]

[It's not violent, or loud, but Blues does try pulling his hand away quickly.]

No.

[One simple word, really, but it;s true. He can't exactly show her what's wrong because it's not something he wants to show anyone.

Ever.]

[beautifulmemory]

I'll fix it. There's no point in stopping here and giving up, after all.

[prototype_blues]

It's not something that can be fixed.

[Now he doesn't sound all to happy, and his facial expression matches his tone of voice too.]

[beautifulmemory]

It's the water, right? That's something small. I can fix it, so we can go.

[She holds onto him! She's not about to let go.]

Don't run away. Trust me. I want to show you something from my world. A piece that I belong to, and that belongs to me.

[prototype_blues]

It's not just the water.

[He's trying to be calm, but dang she's got a grip for a cat.]

I'm not running away either.

[Now he sounds insulted!]
