033 - [Accidental Audio Post//Action] Alive

[not_alaska]

[The sound of a heart monitor can be heard beeping rhythmically in the background, soft breathing.]

Mmn.

[The rustle of sheets and papery hospital clothes. A soft, warm voice.]

Hey.

[ooc: backdated to this morning, the action is open to anyone who wants to visit. She's not actually injured any more, just a little dizzy from blood loss and

action;

[weaponxanimal]

[Logan blinks slowly, a weary smile wants pull at his face but not enough to break through the seriousness.]

Hey.

action;

[not_alaska]

[He looks rough, but she's just happy to see him right now. It's strange, she doesn't feel any pain. Just a little dizzy, and there's an IV pulling at the back her hand.]

How long was I out?

action;

[weaponxanimal]

[Hasn't he always been rough? Logan stands up and comes closer to the bedside. He tucks a strand of hair away from her face.]

A day.

action;

[not_alaska]

[Rougher than usual. She can tell the difference, now. Her eyes close for a moment when he touches her face.]

Did I...

[She doesn't want to ask, but it feels necessary.]

Did someone get there?

action;

[weaponxanimal]

[His throat tightens and he lowers his eyes.]

Luke came.

action;

[not_alaska]

[She can tell from his expression. It's a non-answer, she didn't make it. It makes her feel sick to her stomach for a moment.]

I felt someone, I remember.

action;

[weaponxanimal]

[For lack of words, Logan nods.]

Things bein' how they are here, you're in for a full, speedy recovery.

[Optimistic...kind of. He should apologize. He should have done more. God knows what else could have been done but--]

George....

action;

[not_alaska]

Yeah, I can tell. The scars are back.

[She pulls herself together quickly enough. There's a big difference between almost-dying and actually dying, but she's here now, isn't she?]

Logan, don't start. I'm okay, I'm alive, right?

[Reaching out to touch him.]

action;

[weaponxanimal]

[He takes her hand, careful of that IV.]

You better be alive or I'm gonna have to have a few words with some deities. And I don't think they'd like what I'd say.

I'm glad you're back.

action;

[not_alaska]

I'm sure you wouldn't be the first in line.

[Squeeze!]

I'm glad I'm back too.

action;

[weaponxanimal]

I might be the last one too.

[Squeezes back.]

When you feel like gettin' up I'll take you to get some real food. I seen the slop they serve here. No wonder people here are sick.

action;

[not_alaska]

[It's a good thing he's changing the subject, because seeing him upset only make her feel worse.]

I still feel a bit weak, but I'm sure that won't last.

[Tugging him closer, a hug would make things better.]

action;

[weaponxanimal]

[Both arms wrap around George and he holds her comfortably tight.]

I got you a chance a clothes. Figured you didn't want to walk home in a paper gown.

[Logan presses a kiss to her temple.]

action;

[not_alaska]

[Holds him gently, eyes closing. He smells much better than antiseptic and starch.]

I love you.

[For the clothes, or in general? Hey, she just died, she's allowed some sap.]

action;

[weaponxanimal]

[He gladly would trade the antiseptic stench for blood any day. Logan registers her words only as he leans for a kiss. They give him more incentive to make her happy...whatever those words are for.]

action;

[not_alaska]

[She smooths her hands over his hair and welcomes the kiss, relaxed in his hold. This was worth waking up back in this place again.]
