[Rapunzel looks absolutely miserable...she's pale, her nose is runny, and every time she tries to talk, she starts coughing and sneezing

You're sick. [Stated as this should be obvious, but still polite and kindly as a doctor should be in such as situation.]

[tangledintower]

I'm sick....?

[Mother has told her about sick...rather, the plague and horrible murderous viruses.]

Do I have the plague? Am I gonna die?

[doctor_tangent]

Yes. Looks routine. Unless something more pesky. Or have a compromised immune system. Should pass within a few days.

[tangledintower]

I've never been sick before...

[brokemysmolder]

This is precisely why people wear shoes.

[He sounds both amused and concerned.]

You'll be fine. You just need handkerchiefs, chicken soup, and lots of sleep.

[tangledintower]

Eugene...I've never been sick before...am I going to die...?

[brokemysmolder]

What did I just say? You'll be fine. Don't worry! I've been sick LOTS of times, and look how well I turned out!

[hesitates, then a little shyly]

Do you want me to come over?

[tangledintower]

[She's quiet for a minute, because she's coughing.]

...yes please...I'm scared, Eugene...

[justcautious]

You never 'ad a cold before? Or is it sommat worse you've got...?

[tangledintower]

No, never...I've never been sick before in my whole life...

Do I have the plague? Am I gonna die?

[justcautious]

You've never been sick...

S'prob'ly not the plague. Looks like it's just a cold. It don't last too long.

[tangledintower]

So...I won't die. Okay.

...how bad can a cold be?

[mghtbconcussed]

Coughing, sniffling, sneezing? Cold.

[tangledintower]

I've never been sick before. Not even with a cold...

[mghtbconcussed]

Lucky duck! It was bound to happen eventually. You'll probably be better in a few days? In the meantime, make some hot tea and add brandy to it. It will help. So much.

[tangledintower]

...brandy?

[heelsandlaw]

I'd say you have the cold. Stay in bed and drink a lot, that's the best you can do.

I'll make you some tea, if you'd like.

[tangledintower]

Okay...that sounds nice, thanks...

[ A little later, Cameron comes in with a box of tissues and a can of tea. ]

Hey there. How are you feeling?

[tangledintower]

Pretty lousy, I'm sorry to say...
