[ The screen snaps on to reveal the backs of theatre seats. They seem all but empty, except for ones occupied by the owner of the phone and the individual beside her. The tuft of brown hair and Rudy-like nose that peeks through the edge of the screen answers that question. ]

You take your little sensitive ass up there and let me in. Get out of the ( Read more... )

Mindy? [In the brief flash of video the rush of blood all looks to be from the face.] Pinch your nose, just above your nostrils.

That's not gonna help.

It's a start. Did you just take a knock?

Yeah, Jackie Chan came through the movie screen and socked me in the face.

[ Still mumbling. ]

all of those punches are faked. [He has no idea, and not too much interest in that variety of movie.] Can you try getting your screen back on? Or Rudy's.

Of course they are. Sloppy too.

[ Her attempts to divert the conversation wend with a muffled augh. ]

I'm fine.

I don't really like to diagnose by audio, but I can tell you you're not sounding it.

I scratched an old scab.

Stop being a doctor, Chase. Don't need it.

[ She never goes to the doctor. She's too strong for that, she believes. ]

You know the only people who ever tell me that? Not doctors.

Let me see.

Fuck off. Who do you think you are, my Dad? S'not any of your business.

[ Her voice is harsher, a darker tone that she takes when she's in disguise. It's all panic and fear the boils over in this slur. ]

[That doesn't hurt, but it's something he instinctively wants to protest about. Instead, he turns to business.]

No, I think I'm doing my job. If I can't see that you're fine, I'm going to have to send someone out to you.

[ The camera snaps on for brief seconds, revealing a fresh streak of blood smeared against Mindy's nose, lips and chin. There are small and large cuts, scrapes, printed here and there on her face. Ringed around her right eye is a light dusting of blue-- the beginning of a bruise reforming. However, Chase's eyes may not be fast enough to catch it, for those seconds are very brief. ]

It looks bad. Doesn't hurt that much; Rudy's gonna go get bandages. [ Suddenly, spoken more harshly-] If I need a doctor, I'll go to the hospital. Right now, stay out of it.

Sometimes when it looks bad but doesn't hurt like it should, it's because we're in shock. One of the ways the body tries to protect itself. Rudy needs to hurry. [Meanwhile Chase is already paging a call in, unaware two others are also going through. And, because he can't help himself.] How the hell did you get torn up like that?

[ And she just glosses over the first part. Mindy's a stubborn brat with little tolerance for being instructed what to do, specifically in that tone so common for adults; more so, while under physical duress. ]

Said it's none of your business.
