They are feeling better, He is feeling worse

Damn this bug was persistent. It got so he was feeling so bad he had to stop visiting Mac because he didn't want her to get sick with anything else while she was getting over her mutant thing

Alice dodged the bullet that was the sickness, and frankly that was just as well she might've dived out the window for good measure. Being locked up in her room and treated like a pin cushion sucked though.

What she didn't expect to find was someone practically lying dead to the world after the illness had apparently been cured. Or was at least on the way to being cured enough that Alice could actually leave her room.

"Yo," poking his shoulder, Alice looked around to see if this one had been air dropped and was some kind of biological weapon, "you dead or what?"

[ooc: Dunno where you wanted this set, lemme know if you had anywhere in mind and I can change things.]

"Yes" he groaned and covered his face with his arm. His muscles were so sore even little movements took real effort. He kept telling himself that he just needed to man up. It was easier said than done but it was just a bug. It wasn't like he was going to die for real. It just felt like it.

Blindly, he groped around for his water glass but when he found it, it was empty. Jesse made a little whiny sound. "can you get me some water?" He said pathetically. "Please."

((ooc: This is cool. Thank you. I was just going to post again where he was miraculously in the med lab and he didn't know how he got there but this works better.))

Usually, under normal circumstances, Alice would snort and walk away. But this? This was like turning her back on a kicked puppy, and even she wasn't that mean. Sighing slightly, Alice leaned over and picked up the glass. "You should be in the medical."

Taking the glass, Alice wandered over to the counters, getting ice as well as filling it up with fresh water. It wasn't like it was warm here, but the kid sounded like he could use the ice.

"Here," placing it in his hand seemed a better idea than letting him flail around for it. "Drink that and then shift. Medical. Before you infect someone." She thought they'd already gotten everyone locked up in medical.

"Medical is full." He groaned as he reached for the water. He really didn't want to have to sit up but he didn't want to spill it all over himself. He was already damp from his own sweat. The fever was a bitch.

Sipping the water, he sighed and looked at the woman standing over him. She was a teammate. One of the new ones. "I'm not going to infect anyone. I'm just going to sleep it off."

"Right," She didn't need to stand close, she could see the sweat on his forehead, the wet on the back of his shirt along his spine, the fact that he could hardly hold up his own head. She wasn't stupid.

"I don't care if they're full. I don't care if they've got the black plague." If she had to, she'd knock his head off the table and drag him by the scruff of his neck. "If you have the flu, you're gonna spread it around here. Fuck knows our powers are wired enough without people hacking up their lungs or whatever and blowing the buildings up." Apparently someone could do that.

"So, if I have to drag you there, I will, but you're going to the medical and getting some fucking antibiotics for that."

She just wasn't going to let this go. He didn't even know who she was or why she took it upon herself to come into his room and hassle him but growing up the only child of a strong willed woman, he knew the tone of a battle lost.

With a frustrated groan (and a not so nice glance to the blond), Jesse threw his covers off and forced himself to sit up. This was some bullshit. He just wanted to sleep it off. He didn't need some chippy making a federal case out of a bad cold. But hell, if they could off her him something to at least knock him out then maybe it would be worth dragging his sick ass across camp.

"Fucking happy now? I'm going. You win."
