He was sick. The flu is Rose had said. He didn't even know how it felt until now. It was horrible. He felt like he was wasting away. He had learned first hand how to bow to the porcelain god. If that didn't bring humility he didn't know what would.
He had taken up most of the bed during the day. He forced her to actually go to work a few times just because it wasn't fair for him to be that much of a child about it. He was currently curled up under blankets in just his boxers. He was hugging a box of tissues as well. It wasn't good.

He did however jerk a little when he heard her voice. He was running a fever and he was jumpy at just about everything. The people outside. The people who ran in the hallways. It all felt like it was going to make his head bust open.

[Therefore he decided to remedy the problem - get up and make something. He was careful, his special ninja-skills quite helpful in getting out of his room and to the kitchen without a sound, but of course as soon as he opened the cabinet all hell broke loose. And by hell, he means multiple pans - too many for him to catch all at once.]
[Once the ringing in his ears stopped, he waited. He didn't even breathe. Surely that wasn't as loud as he thought it was...]

[Oh, that's it. Whoever this was was feeling the full wrath of Zatanna.]
[She threw on her lavender robe over the black spaghetti strap and dark purple pajama shorts, not bothering to tie it off, and headed out for where she knew the kitchen to be.]
[When she appeared in the doorway, however, mouth already open to deliver a verbal beat-down...she froze.]
...Robin?
[She had been expecting Wally. Or M'gann. Or even Captain Marval. He was always hanging around, wasn't he?]
Don't tell me the kitchenware's finally decided to retaliate. I knew it was only a matter of time.

[Okay, you can do this Robin. Play it cool.]
[He stood back up, grinning up at her real big and shrugging. Whoops?]
I'm no match when the spaghetti strainer and the frying pan decide to team-up against me. I know my limitations.
