[ Less than twenty minutes ago, Lamb's room appeared uneventfully over the network. Now it appears again, with a frantic face in front of the monitor. ]

Doctor. We need a doctor in here!

[ Alex's face is sort of sallow and pinched, slightly-raised red blotches climbing up his throat and jaw. The doctor's not for him, though. He keeps glancing ( Read more... )

What room and floor?

[ A sharp, relieved intake of breath. ]

Nine. Room nine. Seventh floor.

I'm on my way.

[Simon grabs his bag and hurries upstairs. He doesn't bother knocking when he gets there--as long as the door is unlocked, he just walks in.]

[ It's most definitely unlocked, and will stay unlocked until the lock stops being smashed.

When Simon arrives, he'll see Sofia Lamb seated on her bed, back to the wall, hollow-eyed, barely breathing, motionless. She could be a corpse if not for the faint, occasional movement of her chest. There's an empty syringe on the floor, some distance away - it was kicked there.

Alex is standing beside her like a guard dog, his eyes on her face. He whips around as he hears the door open, fist raised, then realises that it's the doctor who's arrived and lowers it, breathing shakily. ]

[Delta accesses the feed. Oh, he's pissed, but does nothing other than leaving a little paper trail that he was here.]

I am a doctor. What happened?

[impolite VIDEO] 40410 August 1 2010, 19:44:36 UTC

[ Alex looks relieved for a second, but then recognises - the insane crocodile guy? ]

You're a doctor?

[indignant VIDEO] angel_junk August 1 2010, 19:49:47 UTC

Looking for an otologist I see. In that case I may not be able to help after all.

[dictionary-needing VIDEO] 40410 August 1 2010, 20:21:16 UTC

[ ...he has no idea what an otologist is. But he doesn't have time to ask, and he might not have time to be picky either. ]

Wait - look - my friend's sick or something, I mean she's not moving, she really needs a doctor.

[His voice is smooth as silk.]

Somethin' wrong, son?

[ Alex's face darkens like a thundercloud as he recognises that guy, yeah, that one, the one who broke her arm and bet he did this too, the bastard unless it was that guy Subject Delta, she even warned about him or it could've been any one of the violent madmen running around this place or maybe it was a collaboration-- ]

What the hell do you want.

[audio] worldentire August 2 2010, 21:43:36 UTC

Well, aren't you pleasant this evenin'. Here I was, hopin' t'make sure everythin' was okay, and you're shootin' me down. I see how it is, son.

[ A likely story. Sofia's already let him know in no uncertain terms that this guy is not to be trusted. (She also said that he deals in Plasmids, and don't think that that hasn't been preying on Alex's mind this past week. But he hasn't acted on the knowledge. He's chosen not to act on that knowledge. Very important word. Very important fact. The choice is his.

It's scary how fast he's started viewing as tiny victories things that should be given.) ]

Like you care about her.
