[today, Oliver arrives on the Plane with a bed in tow. not just any bed, but what appears to be a standard-issue hospital bed from the 27th century. he is also wearing a hospital gown, and he has an oxygen tube hooked to his nose and an IV in his arm, although the appartuses the devices were attached to don't seem to have made it to the Plane

[Leela has forgotten, temporarily, that she is supposed to be angry with Oliver. She doesn't recognise the machines that he has been attached to, but they are cold and sterile and he has clearly been badly injured.]

What happened, Oliver? What did you do?

[oliverplus]

[Oliver has no idea who this girl is or why she should think he did something to land himself here. well, besides his track record, maybe]

I didn't do anything! Somebody attacked me!

[anoblesavage]

I did not think you had wounded yourself. [Carefully, as if the person who had attacked might still be near, Leela drew closer and moved a hand to the hilt of her knife.] Who was it?

[oliverplus]

[shakes his head] I don't remember.

[startled by that] Hey, what are you doing?

This will not hasten your recovery a bit Ollie. Sorry.

[semantating]

[ Suddenly, there was a clown! Or rather, a very clownish sort of man with an odd sort of look and an odd sort of dress, as well as an odd sort of manner all about him. And he has CANDY. In a little tin, no less. Or, well, he did. He ate it all, though, sadly.

... Those IVs, they explain nearly nothing to him. Stupid technology barrier. But he is fairly sure that is some kind of medical something-or-another, so Break shall simply take a shot in the dark. ]

If I DO happen to be your hallucination, would you mind refilling this tin for me? It's dreadfully annoying to always run out so QUICKLY, you see, Mister Day. I see you're faring far worse than our last conversation to boot!

[oliverplus]

[JUMPS SEVERAL FEET. way to startle him, Break]

Whoa! Uh...hello. [he isn't sure what to say about the candy tin, so he latches onto the easier topic] Our last conversation?

[semantating]

[ Sorry Ollie. S'how he rolls. ]

He doesn't recall a thing!

Oh, he recalls some things, but not this something in particular, it seems.

[ Oh my god did that doll just move on its own, make clicking noises, and talk in what sounds like a higher pitched version of Break's voice? Yes. Yes it did. ]

Mister Day, do you remember the other day?

[oliverplus]

[his eyes widen when the doll starts to talk] Hey, that's cool!

[blinks] Which "other" day, exactly?

mind a latecomer?

[bodilesswarrior]

[Barbara rushes to his side as soon as she sees him, radiating concern]

I hope you didn't need that IV, Oliver. [she's scrutinising him, now, gaze quick and sharp]

I know hospitals can get tedious, but really, this was just reckless.

Not at all!

[oliverplus]

[just blinks at her, then averts his gaze. her concern is making him uncomfortable, even though he doesn't understand why he's feeling so worried all of a sudden]

[and that comment? that was just confusing] What did I do?

\o/ <3

[bodilesswarrior]

[her frown deepens] You didn't choose to come to the Plane?

<3!

[oliverplus]

[blankly] To the what now?
