Transmutation Interlude 12 - RL Hospital Log PPTH

Jul 02, 2010 23:25

Edward started off asleep. He's unconscious, on his back, an IV draining into his arm. He's wearing blue hospital scrubs because his clothes are trashed. On the table beside his bed, where there is a water pitcher and a glass for him, as well as a remote, are his personal effects. One state alchemist watch, a set of six earrings and a small repair ( Read more... )

Azula had been hanging around the hospital for much of the day. Most of the time she stayed in the lobby or office areas-- she wasn't really supposed to be near the patient rooms without reason or permission, but occasionally she broke that rule, and today was no exception.

She didn't have any particular reason for it, really. She walked leisurely down the halls of the ICU (in her Earth clothes, so as not to be overly conspicuous), glancing into the rooms when the doors were open. She likely would have been kicked out by now, she mused, if most of the people who worked at the hospital didn't at least vaguely recognize her. They probably assumed that she had permission from their Dean of Medicine. Azula liked that. She could go practically anywhere that she wanted.

Passing by a room, she stopped suddenly, frowning. There was something familiar about the boy lying in the bed inside. In fact, she was almost certain that she recognized him from the community.

"Who are you?" she demanded.

Edward had been staring at the ceiling, counting the tiles (he was up to 21) when Azula's voice interrupted his thoughts. He didn't think he knew her, at least at first. His brain was still muddled.

"Could ask the same." Ed said, his tone still harsh with difficult breathing. "I'm Ed Elric."

peoplesprincess July 5 2010, 03:04:46 UTC

That name sounded familiar too, but only vaguely. She didn't even think she'd ever spoken to him before.

"Why are you here?"

cyberelric July 5 2010, 03:08:26 UTC

"I got hurt..." Ed sucked in a harsh breath. "And I was brought here." He had a mask, but he'd pulled it down, particularly because if he could let the pain kick in, he'd maybe start lifting the fog of the medication. "Mello brought me."

peoplesprincess July 5 2010, 03:11:11 UTC

"I see." Mello, she knew-- at least peripherally. "Why were you brought here? Aren't there hospitals on your world?"

cyberelric July 5 2010, 03:14:33 UTC

"Yeah..." Ed said with a soft gasp. "But I shouldn't...go there. There's...trouble." He coughed a bit, shaking his head. "And Chase...Chase is my doctor. Sorta." He shook his head. "Too much...medication."

peoplesprincess July 5 2010, 03:15:44 UTC

Azula raised an eyebrow, remembering her own experiences with medication and sedatives at this hospital. "They like drugging people here."

cyberelric July 5 2010, 03:19:07 UTC

"Yeah...can't feel much...can't tell what's wrong." Edward's coughing fit is pretty epic after that so he relents and pulls the mask back on, pouting a little. Stupid equipment.

peoplesprincess July 5 2010, 03:21:15 UTC

She leaned against the door jam. She was still bored, and she was still waiting for news from Lilith, so a random conversation didn't seem that bad of an idea right now.

"So is Dr. Chase the new 'community doctor'?"

cyberelric July 5 2010, 03:27:15 UTC

"I don't know." Ed murmured, shifting on his arms sluggishly to try and sit up and get a better look at her. He frowns a little.

"I do know who you are." Ed said after a moment. "Azula." He was pleased with his memory at least. "Was...was Dr. Cuddy the community doctor before?" He asked, breathing hard from all that work.

"Besides...if you want to know...I hear what happened to me is on the community. Must be if Mello and Naoto showed up to save me."

peoplesprincess July 5 2010, 03:31:45 UTC

"I suppose. She certainly acted like it, anyway. But now she's lost access so I suppose she can't be anymore." Azula watched his movements carefully, out of habit.

cyberelric July 5 2010, 03:34:17 UTC

Mismatched arms trembled so Ed fell back onto the pillow.

"Ah...I only saw her. Never...spoke to her." He smiled a little. "Chase has seen...me before."

peoplesprincess July 5 2010, 03:35:26 UTC

"She's nice." Azula paused. "Usually."

cyberelric July 5 2010, 03:38:03 UTC

"There are a lot of nice people on the community." He grinned a little.

"But now someone who is my enemy is on the community." He sobered and looked away a moment. "He can't know I'm alive."

peoplesprincess July 5 2010, 03:40:29 UTC

"Everyone has enemies on the community," she said. "Even if they don't know it."

cyberelric July 5 2010, 03:43:10 UTC

"I didn't..." Ed said, frowning. "But now Envy's shown up." He gasped softly. "And he's trying to...sacrifice me for something. I don't...I don't know what yet."
