4 - Waking up is hard to do

[jillykitzinger]

[Audio to start. Why? Because Jilly has just woken up up from her coma, and no one needs to see her in a hospital bed, sans red lipstick.]

I was going to ask why I'm waking up in the hospital.

But I think I'll ask about this instead.

[She turns on the camera, which is pointed at her legs beneath the blanket. Or at least what should be two legs

[uberwaldian]

Oh, dear. Were you in a coma, too?

We're having fairies today. They're getting a kick out of driving everyone mad.

[jillykitzinger]

Is that what it was? A coma? Doesn't a person have to be injured to be in a coma? The last thing I remember is looking for someone.

Fairies. I don't suppose anyone has fairy repellent?

[uberwaldian]

Not this kind of coma, apparently. I fell asleep in my bask-- in my room and simply didn't wake up for two weeks.

George has been giving them tea. Apparently that works.

[jillykitzinger]

Two weeks? With no explanation?

[She wonders how long she has been out cold.]

Tea? [Fairies...and tea. This was just the dumbest thing.]

[strangehstorian]

You might have been in a coma. I'm very sorry.

As for the snow ... do you still have legs under that? If not, perhaps you should call a doctor.

[jillykitzinger]

I think they're skiing down my legs. I think that's what the mountains are.

This is really just...I mean really? What am I supposed to do, just lie here until they're gone?

[strangehstorian]

Oh! That would make sense.

I can try to talk to them, perhaps, but they are not very reasonable creatures.

[There's chattering from behind Chromie and a book goes flying at her head. It freezes in mid-air before it can collide. She doesn't look alarmed so much as exasperated.]

[jillykitzinger]

[Her eyes widen as the book freezes.]

Did you do that, or did they?
