Suite 232

Last night, Lilly got stabbed. It gets a little hazy after that, but she's fairly sure that she's going to live... as much as she generally does

"Hey, cable!"

Dean is not so much easy to distract and more uncomfortable as all hell at the moment.

But it ain't every day you realize that dead people can die--again.

Seems kind of shitty, to be honest.

"You get any porn channels up here?"

[awesome_lilly]

Lilly would agree heartily with that assessment.

"Hey, Dean."

She waves at the chair by the couch, careful not to jog her stitches.

"Have a seat. And yeah, I get porn channels, but... I work at a brothel. They're kinda unnecessary."

[hopeitsworthit]

Dean gives her a thorough once-over as he makes his way over to the chair.

And this time (mostly) he's not looking at her tits.

"You doin' okay?"

[awesome_lilly]

"Considering the circumstances, I'm actually doing pretty good."

Lilly smiles a little crookedly.

"The circumstances, however, are pretty sucky. How're you?"

[balletrat]

You got stabbed? Why didn't you call me? That's why I have a phone in the Threshold, so people can call me in case of emergencies! This is an emergency, Lilly!

*And abruptly there's a small blonde whirlwind hovering around Lilly, flailing her hands and looking around for things to fetch.*

Lilly blinks a lot. Pain pills plus whirly Meg is a very interesting thing.

"Uh, I haven't been in my right mind since it happened?"

This is actually one hundred percent true.

[balletrat]

That, *Meg says, severely,* is no excuse. Being in our right minds has never been part of our BFFness anyways - what happened, anyway? Who stabbed you? Can I get you anything?

[awesome_lilly]

"...point."

Lilly frowns a little, focusing on Meg's questions.

"Okay. In order... I think. I got stabbed out in the woods by some girl I'd totally never seen before who got all twitchy in the dark and then freaked out after, so I think it was an accident but still totally painful. And I wouldn't mind some ice water!"

Coyote leans over the couch, peering at the television, which is currently tuned to what seems to be Lifetime of the future!! Space pirates are heavily featured.

"You are still alive. Good work."

[awesome_lilly]

"For a given value of alive."

Lilly smiles brightly up at her.

"Hi, Coyote."

[howling_laugh]

"Close counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and brushes with death." She sits on the arm of the couch and decides not to smoke. You don't smoke in front of sick people, right? Stabbed counts.

"Ah, did I introduce myself already and forget? It does happen."

[awesome_lilly]

"In a way."

Lilly grins.

"We met once before, at my wedding."

Question: do you bring flowers to the girl who dumped you when she got stabbed by a psycho?

Answer: . . . . no. It's too much effort. And Jayne isn't really a flowers kinda guy.

There's no knocking. Knocking is for the weak.

"Heard you got stabbed."

[awesome_lilly]

"...Jayne. Uh."

Lilly blinks at him for a moment.

"Yeah, I did actually. Hi."

[swinging_cod]

There's a moment of awkward silence.

"Need the húndàn shot?" Jayne offers, eventually.

[awesome_lilly]

Mmm, awkward silence! But then Jayne makes his offer and Lilly can't help but laugh.

"Yeah, no. It was a girl and an accident, so that's probably not necessary. But I appreciate the offer."

It's sweet, in the special way that Jayne does sweet.

Inara has heard about Lilly and she is Not Happy. However, being married to Mal has gotten her used to these situations, so she comes prepared. She carries a bag with an embroidered satin short kimono robe, a bottle of expensive sake, a book on caligraphy, a bottle of ink, paper and 3 brushes.

She knocks gently on the door and calls softly, "Lilly? You awake?"

[awesome_lilly]

Lilly is actually both awake and really bored. She's starting to feel better enough that her lack of mobility is getting irritating too.

"Inara? Come on in!"

[ff_ambassador]

"Hey, sweetie," Inara replies, entering the room with a worried smile. "How are you feeling?" She gives her a rueful grin. "I'm sure you are getting tired of answering that question."

[awesome_lilly]

"Nah, it's cool," Lilly assures her. "If people are asking me that, it means I have visitors and I am totally in favor of visitors."

She eyes the bag hopefully.

"Especially visitors with presents?"
