008 (I think. :P) ~ Drunk in the clinic [action/dictated]

[atadiscoverer]

[There's the clattering of something, and the spilling of a pan of surgical scalpels on the ground, followed by some drunken Scottish swearing and some failed attempts at picking them up

[spongetastic]

Um... Are you in the clinic, doctor?

[atadiscoverer]

Uh...

[It takes a while for him to reply]

Aye, I think I am.

[Not the most reassuring response]

[spongetastic]

Maybe you should sit down. [and not touch anything]

[atadiscoverer]

Already there.

[He sounds happy] I wouldnae worry about me. 'm fine.

[spongetastic]

You just said you cut yourself.

[atadiscoverer]

Just a wee cut. It's fine.

[He's already bandaged it, although a bit messily. There are a few drops of blood seeping through the journal page]

[spongetastic]

Still... We have enough doctors. You can take the night off.

[atadiscoverer]

What if they're the same? I dinnae trust this bloody place.

I havenae touched a dram all night. How d'ye explain the fact I'm drunk?

[spongetastic]

I'm still sober. [not that he can do anything medical-wise]

It's one of the castle's tradition.

[atadiscoverer]

This place has traditions?

Why make us all drunk?

[He's totally not noticed the date]

[spongetastic]

It's New Year's eve.

[atadiscoverer]

[A moment's silence]

Bloody hell, already?

[spongetastic]

Yeah. Already.

[atadiscoverer]

Doesnae feel like it...

[A sigh] I would drink some water, try'n clear me head, but...

[spongetastic]

Yeah. It wouldn't really help.

[atadiscoverer]

Aye.

Guess I'll be waitin' 'til it wears off.
