Pomfrey says I'll be able to breathe properly again, but she won't tell me when. All this coughing and chest pain and general lack of air is not on at all. And these meds are doing all sorts of shite to any coherency I should have. I'm getting really fucking tired of passing out and having to take overly-strong pain potions and I'm worried about

I'm glad you're ok.

[goldracquet]

Thank you. How are you faring? I don't think you were injured, were you?

[simplypadma]

Are you feeling up for visitors? Maybe someday I'll come by and you'll all be awake at once.

I'm fine, but bored and lonely. Is there anything you want me to get you from your room? Michael already sent me for his chocolate stash.

[goldracquet]

You're perfectly free to come by -- I can't guarantee I'll be awake, but if you let me or Pomfrey (or both) know when you'll be by, I can probably convince her to leave me alone so I could actually talk to you.

That's very nice of you. There are a few books and magazines on my bedside table (one of them is about tennis, so that should tip you off) -- if you could bring them next time you stop by for whatever reason, that would be ace.

The medsaren;t so bad

More time unconsxious, less time incapacitated.

Bwesides, right now I'm not too sure I want tto be coheremt quite yet./

I don't like them much. I prefer control over my mental and physical faculties. Well, physical control is out thanks to whatever the fuck happened to my lungs, and I have to give up mental control as well. It is very unpleasant. I understand, though, why one could like them; I just don't myself.

Your tennis and my Quidditch. I totally understand, and am apparently more to the coherant side. Though I will be quite pleased when I can sleep of my own will and not induced.

I get the feeling the first few days home we'll be doing a lot of sleeping anyway.

Ha. Funny as I call your place home now.

[goldracquet]

I agree -- being able to fall asleep on my own would be much nicer than staying down after passing out for lack of oxygen.

Merlin, I hope so. It's good I have some downtime before tennis starts up, and I hope I'll actually be able to play.

I'm glad.

Or having a vile potion stuffed down your throat and by the time you count to 'twenty' you're asleep.

Me too. I've got until mid-July before Quidditch, and if nothing else I can go and watch.

I just hope that my bed is sufficiently comfy or we're going to get into it.

[goldracquet]

Exactly. Besides, potions for that sort of thing either make dreams unpleasant or make you feel like you haven't gotten any rest at all -- or both, perhaps.

Watching... isn't half as fun as actually playing, but at least it's an option.

They're both the same at my house. None of this inequality in mattresses that goes on here at school!

I WANT TO BREATHE AGAIN.

[greenthumbbones]

Me too!

[goldracquet]

I agree completely.
