Magnus sits down at her desk and opens her inbox, clicking to compose a new message.

Will,

Raya wishes to bring in a Healer--a friend of hers from the Institute--to heal Dr. Addy's hands. Would you please be present upon her arrival? More details soon, once Raya and I consolidate a day for her friend to fly in.

And to touch base with Raya,

Will scowls at his computer and has to start over again three times before he manages a civil, if brief reply.

Magnus,

great thought. Zack used to really enjoy basketball and I know he's had some other issues with things he could do but can't now. Getting his hands more functional should help him adapt better.

Got the lab thing squared away yet?

Will,

East, level 2, room 34. It's all set up for him, and I'm having equipment shipped in today. Would you like to tell him?

She sets her jaw, resisting the urge to ask how that one hell of a headache he must be experiencing is treating him. And how throwing up into the wee hours of the morning went. She knows because, medications aside, she passed by his door last night, though she'd never admit it was just to make sure he was alright.

Afternoon briefing rescheduled an hour later.

M,

I'll let him know, thanks. Almost ready with the results of his detailed eval, too. I'll forward those to you when I have them.

Hitting send, he contemplates the glass of alka seltzer sitting in front of him, his seventh or eight today because he refuses to let a self-inflicted case of hepatatoxicity slow him down. Shaking his head, he begins to sip the foul brew.

Her fingers tap restlessly over the keys as she muses.

W,

There's Zofran in my cabinet. You're welcome to help yourself.

She sighs and closes her e-mail again, returning to the memo she'd been typing.

I have indeed, Anna still agrees to come across to heal his hands. Kurt can bring her whenever you're comfortable.

Raya,

Thank you for your quick response. Anytime this week will be fine, just let me know ahead of time so Will and I can be ready to meet her.

Take care,
- M

[veiled_hellion]

You're very welcome. Anna looks forward to meeting Zack.

-R

She sends the message and sighs; she wants Anna safe, which means mostly staying in Salem Center, but she also wants to see Kurt and Logan.
