Transmutation Interlude 12 - RL Hospital Log PPTH

Jul 02, 2010 23:25

Edward started off asleep. He's unconscious, on his back, an IV draining into his arm. He's wearing blue hospital scrubs because his clothes are trashed. On the table beside his bed, where there is a water pitcher and a glass for him, as well as a remote, are his personal effects. One state alchemist watch, a set of six earrings and a small repair ( Read more... )

Winry had nearly worn a hole in the linoleum of the waiting room floor. She had never had to wait like this before. She'd been Granny's assistant during the surgeries that saved Ed's life originally and when his automail ports had been installed.

She knew everyone here was worried. That went without saying. But she couldn't help but think Ed had been too lucky, too many times. Until she could see him for herself, she wouldn't know if he'd be okay. When the doctor said Ed could see visitors, she grabbed Al's gauntlet, squeezing the leather as if he could feel it.

Winry pushed through the door, biting her lip, taking in how pale Ed looked, the tubes running in and out of his body. Clinically, he looked okay, but she couldn't quite look at him clinically. "What were you doing, Ed?" Her normal yell barely came out as a squeak.

He looked towards the familiar voice and he smiled weakly and spoke, his voice still rough, he'd clearly damaged his lungs somehow. "Winry..." He sucked in a small breath. "Better not have been...crying."

"P-promised, didn't I?" Her voice cracked and Winry swallowed, trying to get control of herself. She made her way to the bed, red eyes indicating that she either hadn't slept in a while or possibly had been crying. Leaning over the bed, Winry kissed his forehead softly then pressed her cheek against his. "I was so scared."

cyberelric July 3 2010, 18:11:03 UTC

"Yeah I know. Don't cry Win. As you can see, I am perfectly alright...alive anyway." Edward rasped a little and put his flesh hand over hers weakly.

Naoto was reminded of another blond young man who had a penchant for getting himself seriously injured while she waited for news of Edward's condition. She sat there, nursing a cup of coffee, and wishing desperately for something a little stronger... something to help calm her nerves.

She waited the long hours in the uncomfortable plastic chairs in the waiting room. Finally, it was her turn to see him.

She padded softly into the room, her cabbie hat held in both hands.

"Hello, Edward." She forced a smile. "How are you feeling?"

cyberelric July 3 2010, 04:14:56 UTC

"Hi Naoto." Edward said. Despite his looks, the fact he was stable, he still sounded like he was injured. At least he was stable.

"I'm alright." He said and gave a weak smile. "Could...go for lunch, right?"

truthinfortune July 3 2010, 04:23:58 UTC

A small laugh slipped out of her. Edward had very nearly had a brush with death not six hours ago... and he was already talking about food. Frankly, Naoto was surprised to see him conscious. He really was made of sterner stuff than she had imagined...

"I'm afraid you're probably going to be on a mostly liquid diet for the next few days," she said, taking a seat in a nearby chair. She set her hat on her lap and reached for Edward's left hand. "But I promise to treat you to Aiya's, once you're well enough."

cyberelric July 3 2010, 04:27:06 UTC

"Look forward to it." Edward said with a small smile.

He held onto her hand and made an attempt to squeeze it. It was feeble, his usual strength sapped. It would take awhile to get his strength back. "Win was here..." He coughed. "They're okay."

I'm late because I'm on slwoatus -.- it ends tomorrow notbritishgdit July 3 2010, 14:06:18 UTC

Chase entered the room a few seconds later. He been motorizing the boy since he arrived here. Every time he had to leave Chase asked the nurses to keep a special eye on the boy in case something happened. Thanks to Cuddy he managed to find a room for Edward and they didn't had to fill any papers, something impossible to do when the person treated didn't even belong to that world.

The hardest part was to ignore House and his sarcastic comments about if he was hooking up with one of the nurses and that's why he was leaving at the first opportunity. He managed to hide it and avoid House, but the blond doctor new that he was getting curious and that was never a good thing.

"Welcoem to the world of the living." He said, checking one of the machines that controlled Ed's meds.

cyberelric July 3 2010, 18:15:25 UTC

"Thanks I guess." Even with the mask on his face, Ed's breathing is a little laboured and his voice raspy. He coughs a little but doesn't complain too much.

"Do I have to be on so much? Can't...can't feel anything."

notbritishgdit July 3 2010, 23:06:59 UTC

"You don't want to feel anything, trust me on that. There's no need to feel pain." He checked a few more machines and Ed's stats. "Don't talk, your ribs are broken. The surgery took more than we expected."

cyberelric July 4 2010, 02:25:46 UTC

"How'm I supposed to tell what's wrong with me or how I'm doing if I can't feel it?" Edward asked, with a small frown. "I have to...we don't have...this stuff. Whatever it is."

Al was waiting patiently for his turn to go in and see Edward. Knowing that his brother was alive and stable was all he needed. Of course he wanted to see him, but he could let the rest of their family in first, secure in the knowledge that his turn would come around. After all, Alphonse spent a lot of his time waiting.

When the last of their little group had come out, Al took his turn, sidling sideways through the door to fit his giant bulk.

"Hi, Brother."

cyberelric July 3 2010, 18:17:10 UTC

This time Edward had been dozing, he'd fallen asleep near the end of Chase's visit and was coaxed out of his rest by clanking armour. "Al...you're safe. I'm glad." Weakly, with a wobbling arm, he held it out in a fist in Al's direction, symbolic of one of his brotherly fistbumps.

ironysoul July 3 2010, 23:39:10 UTC

YOU MAY HAVE YOUR FISTBUMP BIG BRO.

"Of course I'm safe, you big dummy," Al said, after gently bumping Ed's fist with his. He took a seat next to the bed.

"When you're better I'm gonna yell at you."

cyberelric July 4 2010, 02:27:20 UTC

"I'm shocked." Ed offered sarcastically with a weak smile.

[an eternity is a mild descriptor for how long it felt that kanji had to wait to see Ed. the stupid dumbass had gotten himself in over his head and now...damn, was he gonna get a punch in the arm for making him worry. he walks into the room as quietly as he can and sist down with a whump in the old, overused hospital chair next to ed's bed.]

You friggin' dumbass.

cyberelric July 4 2010, 03:30:15 UTC

[Ed follows Kanji's movements with his eyes, they're half-lidded, but he's good at fighting medication.]

Ah yeah. Somethin' like that. [His voice still sounds like he tore apart his lungs, fortunately he didn't.]

topsiclevacuum July 4 2010, 03:36:57 UTC

Somethin' like that? [his voice is loud and pissed off.] What the hell do you mean "somethin' like that"? You got a damn metal pole stuck in your stomach and tore it out and then tried to fix it yourself! That definitely makes you a dumbass!

cyberelric July 4 2010, 03:46:49 UTC

I tore it out? [Edward asked, looking genuinely surprised.] I don't remember that.
