Scene 8 - 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy

Nov 10, 2008 12:27

I fear all good intents have been for naught, for I do see such sickness about. Find thou a physician, I beg thee all, 'fore little troubles grow and cause thee thy deathbed for to seek.

Dearest cousin, and dear friend Dawn, I shall brew thee tea and sit by thy sides as oft as I might. And pray thy hurts and sickness pass anon.

McGoogles and I are going to take over the world, and the first things up against the wall are hospitals, Jello, and absent families. Want to come?

[ooc: Have a cranky Dawn! And she's not really referring to Kyle or Tosh-- okay, maybe just a little-- so do not let the Tosh-in-your-head feel guilty, hear me? :P]

Mine own family's absence is nothing of their fault, I fear. But I shall join thy crusade against Jello if thou wilt have me.

[ooc: Tosh-in-my-head: *guilts omg* <3]

No, see, that's part of the sulky part. Blaming people for things that aren't their fault. It's one of those teenage requirements.

Down with Jello. Rah, rah.

...Come sit with me again, when you can find a spare second?

[ooc: Dawn sez I WILL TELL YOUR JACK AND HE WILL POUT AT YOU.]

I would give away all want for blame, were only they here.

Sit I shall, an it brighten thy day.

[ooc: Noooo, not the pout! D:]

Ditto. But since they're not, instead I'll indulge in some quality sulking and fantasies about how they'll all be sorry when I waste away and perish of tragic, tragic loneliness.

Thanks, Juliet. Hospitals give me the heebies in a bad way. Friendly faces are good.

[ooc: MOO HA HA HA HA! OH YES THE POUT.]

Juliet shall not let thee fade from loneliness. If family can'st attend thee not, friend shall. No warrior like Tybalt am I, but a Capulet the same, and betwixt thee and sadness shall I stand 'til thou breath'st well again.

...

I find chocolate helps make sadness stay away. You could think of it as your weapon of choice! 'And thus with chocolate and friendship did Juliet slay the plague beast'.

Thanks, by the way. All requests for chocolate aside.

Ay, I do agree, it does carry such powers. I shall fetch us chocolate anon, to be our weapon 'gainst all manner of threats and ills.

'Tis my pleasure, dear friend. I hope only that I may aid thee in recovering thy bright spirit.

Does it guard against being a silly, selfish, jealous little girl?

My spirit is kind of less than bright, huh? I don't do sick well. Like anyone could not know.

...

You know what would help? Stories. Lots of them. Tell me about where you're from?

Ay, it doth do so admirably. And I shall hope that thou dost never learn to be sick gracefully, but rather stay hale and attend illness only fleetingly.

Talk of fair Verona? Ay, an it please thee. Though 'tis not much full of excitement, I fear.

Dawn? Are you alone?

I'll be there soon. I was yesterday, but you were sleeping.

Alone, that's me. Kind of a theme.

Also, now with 100% more self-pity!

Anyway. Tosh, you should be resting. Go back to sleep before Jack makes you.

I- I'm sorry, Dawn. I'll come and sit with you.

He can't make me sleep, unless he drugs me. And I think he may be just a little afraid that I actually will shoot him.

Oh my God seriously. Can't a girl be self-absorbed and thoughtless and not have people be hurt?

I'm not mad at you, Tosh. I mean, I kind of am, but I'm also mad at Kyle and the fact that my toes are cold and my left hip itches and my hair isn't cute and my shirt has a hole in the cuff and McGoogles doesn't have any stuffed animal friends and I already finished my book. And throw in the Parcheesi wondertwins for good measure.

I'm sick, I'm cranky, and I'm feeling a little better so now I have more energy to devote to resenting everyone and everything ever.

...Be nice to Jack. You should have seen his face yesterday.

Yes, but she can't expect people not to feel guilty over not being there for her when she needs them.

You can be mad at me, Dawn, it's all right. Wish I was there to take care of you, like a sister should. But Martha's brilliant, you know. She'll have you home in no time at all. And don't be angry with Kyle, he spent ages in that chair next to your bed.

...He broke into the flat and made me tea. And held me. While I slept. No one's ever done that for me. Not since I was little.

No, see, Sunnydale 101. I feel guilty for making you feel guilty and then say only I have that right to that guilt. Hero? Kind of synonymous with 'martyr' and 'emotional idiot' back home. I wish Buffy was here. Her shoes are way too tiny for me. They pinch.

...Yeah. I know. I just... I wi- No, bad word. I'm having issues. Later?

Don't tell him I told you, but he went all panicked and protective. I think he likes you, Tosh.

Tosh? Is Sam okay, do you know? Last time we talked I totally shut him down, and I haven't heard from him since.
