[ataraxites]

CHARACTERS: Ensemble production!
LOCATION: Medbay.
WARNINGS: Sickness, body horror, etc.
SUMMARY: Sickness central. Treatments, dying slowly, related events.
NOTES: Divided by days a la medbay organisation log in the comments!

You're not feeling too well. The last couple of days have been - rough. The medbay seems to be a bit more full than usual, but you're sure it's nothing to be worried about; whatever the illness is, it'll go away once you've rested and gotten a check-up. Right?

You mean from before? Do you think that's what happened to the old crew?

[if Raven sounds thoroughly confused, it's because she absolutely is. Captain Ward would have... said something, if monsters were to blame for the disappearance of their od crew. right? that's not something you can hide forever, and if they were really brought here to help run the ship, risking the chance of losing them all the same way... no. no way. right? ]

I'm really glad you're alright, Charles. [ now that she's worried all over again ] And I'm sorry for being so crazy before you left. It was just nerves... everything.

[excessivehubris]

[Gently brushing his hand along her shoulder, Charles gave a wry little, humorless chuff.]

Raven, to be perfectly honest I can not claim to be thinking much of anything at the moment.

[He genuinely did not want to start speculating when he could barely thread two coherent thoughts together.]

It was from before, the carnage was old but there were no bodies or even pieces of bodies to be found. It is ... unsettling.

[Here, he would have wrapped his other arm around her were it not bound to his side. Instead he pulls her closer and continues to gently rub her back.]

I am glad we were able to find the necessary medicine to help you and the others. There is no need to be sorry, Raven. This situation has been trying, for all of us. No one would fault you, your reactions to being so ill.

[ she just hums at his response, not exactly itching to think about the gory bloodbath that she didn't get to see, and might not ever see. were those labs still open to them? or were all those hallways locked again, so they couldn't explore or look into what happened? not that she could really do anything in a science lab, but she knew there were people that could. which raises a few more questions, really, but. no, it could wait. she finally sits up then, leans back so she can look at her brother properly, even if she's squinting a bit. ]

I guess I should let you sleep, huh?

[ she sounds reluctant, but she's also grinning, because yes, she would keep him here as long as he'd have her company. it's not like she can get out of bed just yet. not without help. ]

Were you thinking about staying here? Or heading back to your room? I could walk with you.

[ half because she wanted to make sure Charles got back okay, and half because she just wanted a reason to get out of the medbay for a few minutes. ]

[excessivehubris]

You will certainly not.

[Have some big brother knows best firm tone Ms. Raven! Not the least of which also being that he's not going back to his room, because Erik may be there and right now seeing Erik would not be a good thing. However, he's not about to try to explain why that is the case!]

I am going to go find a quiet place to get some sleep, however. It has been a long few days and you still need to rest. Please, no breaking out of here until you are given the all clear, yes?
