After a well deserved sleep (about twenty hours once he got going) Guppy is looking somewhat more refreshed and perky today than he has been.
Right now he's by the infirmary, filling in an inane item of paperwork and eating a banana.
The doctor is in

He's abnormally pale and sickly looking, there's a tartan blanket wrapped around his shoulders and he's shivering. There are bruises, just beginning to fade, on him, and several shallow cuts, healed over but still visible. He also seems to be a little bit unsteady on his feet, which is why he sits down, quickly.
"Yo."

"What the hell happened to you?" he asks, getting up to get a closer look at him.

"You eaten or drank anything?"

He doesn't have a fever. In contrast, he feels very chilly to the touch.

He gets up and goes over to the bar, returning shortly with fresh tea and a hot water bottle.
"What happened?"

"I was wondering when you'd give up on trying t'stop me," Atton shrugs. "'S a long story."

"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, but I'm here if you do." he says simply, getting a thermometer out of his pocket and passing it to Atton. "Put that in your armpit until it bleeps."
Ear thermometers are more reliable, but too big and expensive to carry around.

His face a picture of horror for a moment, he then numbly takes the thermometer from Atton, eyes never leaving his big brother's face.

"Hey, don't worry, bro," A hand settles on Guppy's shoulder, and Atton, with some effort, musters a smile. "Y'might've noticed I didn't actually shoot myself, I'm fine. Good, even, or I would be if I wasn't sick. Are you okay?"
