[ Voice and such ]

--t is this?

[ The NV apparently is recording, though only Ella's sleepy voice at the moment. ] Ow my head. [ Silence follows for a few minutes. ]

This isn't... Hello? ... Mandy? [ There's no way someone can fake the confusion in this voice. ] Benny? Slannen ( Read more... )

Ella? Ella, are you okay? What happened to your head? [A friend and a doctor right now.]

[The whole point isn't to give you warning.]

I meant where in your head. The front or the back? [Pauses.] I'm checking your pupils to see how they react to stimulation. Now please hold your head still.

[He raised his finger.] Follow my finger with just your eyes.

[ But but ..!~ Aww. She lowers her hand, with a wry look. ] The front, I suppose.

[ Holding her head still like a good girl, though she smiles because she knows it's because he asked her and not because of that stupid stupid curse. ] It was pretty bad this morning, and now it's really not - like I said, it comes and goes.

[ Also watching said finger. At least her eyes are perfectly clear and focused, so she won't have any difficulty with this task. ]

[He smiles back at her, pleased that she can follow his finger at least.]

You really don't remember anything? I'm not seeing any large bumps or bruises, but I don't see how someone could not remember...weeks of information.

[He starts pressing spots on her head gently with his fingers.] Tell me if it hurts anywhere.

[ She frowns a bit. ] ... No, and I've been here for... a while, according to my roommate. I don't understand it either.

[ Well - she did, but she promised Harry she wouldn't say anything until they could get it sorted out. And if the doctor could at least minimize the raging headaches she kept getting, so much the better. ]

No. . . No... n- [ Okay there. It was like the feel of someone squeezing her head during an already pounding headache, and she flinched back slightly in spite of herself. ]

You have been here for awhile. You're the fastest at picking up foreign languages, from what I've seen. [Smiles sadly, and when she flinches he frowns. Nothing more then what anyone would do, and he can't feel any bruises or contusions.]

Okay. I'm going to give you some painkillers. You can take one ever six hours, and it should help with the headache. Otherwise, just rest, and... I don't know. I'd like to have you come in for an CT scan. But if things don't get better after a day, definitely come into the hospital for a check up. Please.

[ A weak chuckle at that. ] I always was good at that. [ Not that she could remember any of it now. She pauses, a bit apprehensive at the latter. Modern medicine freaks her out, man. ]

A what?

It's called a cat scan. Basically we take a picture of the inside of your head. It takes twenty minutes at the most, and all you have to do is lie there for the duration.

...

You take a picture... of the inside of my head. For twenty minutes.

[ Y'know, she was never really comfortable with modern medicine. This isn't helping, Kenzo :D ]

I...think I'll pass.

It's really very safe. It's like getting an x-ray done. [Frowns slightly.] If you don't remember anything, though, I'm going to have to insist on it, as your doctor.

[ Ella remains skeptical. She's never been to a hospital except for visiting Griffin when he got hurt, and while she could appreciate what the people there did, she wanted no part of it. It was unnerving. And she didn't want Kenzo wasting his time on something that - she didn't think was a medical issue. ]

I remember my home. That's enough for me. And if you're going to insist on it ... [ Pause - here's as good a chance as any to test if Harry's spell really did work. Who knew when it would wear off. ] I'm going to have to respectfully exercise my right to refuse.

Remembering your home is good. But you shouldn't be missing memories of any time, and if you don't do something about it, I'm going to regret not doing whatever I could for you.

[He nods slightly.] All right. But I work at SP General every day. All you have to do is come in and ask for me, and I'll set up some tests right away.

[He gave her a small smile.] But for now, take the painkillers every six hours, and get some rest. That'll probably help you out the most.

[ Ella taps her fingers against her leg, sighing softly. She knew he was right, but she couldn't help but be apprehensive about the equipment they had here. It just ... seemed bizarre. Hopefully she wouldn't need this ...testing. ]

All right. Every six hours. [ Resting should not be a problem. Ella was going to be avoiding the Capri for the next two weeks at least, so that would be plenty of rest she was getting. ] If it helps, it'll be worth it.

It should. [He got up, dusting off his pant legs and putting things back into his duffel bag. He pulled out a bottle of pills, checking them and then handing them over with a small smile.]

I hope you regain your memories, Ella. I really do.
