[Some days she can still her aching and twitching limbs but others it's harder. She stayed home from the clinic at PPTH because she was combating something much worse today. She brought the drugs from the drug program back with her. They make the pain and the lack of control lessen. At first she sits on the rug in front of the television trying to

I don't know if you noticed, but your Hallmark moment kinda hit the big screen. ... You okay, Sam? [ She's not bothering to filter it, because she thinks it's pretty obvious which of them she's more concerned for. ]

Nope. No, that would be a surprise to me...[ Sam did not notice. 8( Boo. He's startled and ... not happy to know that people saw that. Possibly everyone. He picks up the portal, though, taking it out of the room for a few minutes to talk. ] She's getting worse, Ruby. And I can't do anything about it.

That's the problem with humans. Flimsy. [ It comes across as brazen and she softens her expression after a minute. Right. She shakes her head, almost solemnly. She knows it's a wasted effort, but she has to present the option. ]

You could, you know. Take care of it. It's been a while, but that's the thing about old tricks. You've got angels operating in the out field and one specific angel who could owe you a very big favor, Sam. Tap a vein, sign a waiver, and Dad's all-access pass could get your girlfriend touched by an angel.

[ He's about to look pissed and a little appalled at her insensitivity but the look on her face changes, and he remembers that even over time, she's still... well. Ruby. He rubs a hand over his face, shaking his head. ]

What, you think Cas would do something like that? [ You don't mean Lucifer. D: RIGHT? ] I don't even know where he is.

Not exactly the all-star I was thinking of. [ She gives a nonchalant shrug. She's not pushing him, just presenting the option and thinking it might just be good enough. ] You want her healed, don't you?

You can't seriously mean who I think you're meaning, Ruby. [ ... She brings up a good point, though. I mean, really. ] Of course I do. I just don't want to have to take measures that extreme to do it.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize there was a "too extreme" when it came to saving your little girlfriend. You wanted a way to do it, Sam. All I'm doing is providing. Same as I've always done. The only question now is if you want her better bad enough.

What am I going to have to give him, Ruby? Any idea? Do I make her better and never see her again because he still needs a meatsuit that can handle him? Then what, he tries to blow this place to bits again? I want to save her life. I want her better, but not if it means sacrificing everything else. She'd never forgive me.

She'd be protected. Do you want her healthy or do you want her happy?

[precogging]

Both! Why the hell is it so hard to be able to have both, Ruby?

[thatdemonbitch]

Is this your first day in your life? Question kinda answers itself. She's involved with you. It's a miracle she gets a choice.

[precogging]

She has a disease, Ruby. It's not my fault this time.

[thatdemonbitch]

Doesn't change your luck. Doesn't change that you could help her.

[precogging]

[ SIGH. ] So what do I do? Just... Call him out?

video; // out of earshot

[thatdemonbitch]

Depends how serious you are about taking the plunge here, Sam. I don't wanna get you all set just to find out you're getting cold feet.

Tell me what I have to do. [ Angryfacejawsetmansam. ]
