Thirty-Eighth Theory [Action]

Feb 23, 2011 12:08

[Before Don goes out this morning, he leaves a note on the kitchen table.]

GONE TO THE SMITHY.
BACK TONIGHT.[Two days ago he was angry with his brothers for being overprotective, but today everything is different. He genuinely wants them to know where he is, because they've all just been reminded how suddenly a person can vanish ( Read more... )

[When Don comes home that night, he's greeted with a blast of heavy metal music loud enough to make his eardrums pound. The bass makes the whole house rattle on its foundation.

Bang!

Or maybe that's just Raphael throwing the furniture around again. The impact of whatever he's just thrown makes the floor shake.

And Raph's screaming. It's impossible to make out what he's saying over the noise, but the anguish in his voice is palpable. It's a stark contrast from Leo's stern but far gentler tones struggling to cut through all the chaos on the other side of the bedroom door.]

[Leo retrieves the can, and sets it in front of Raph]

I know. [A little push of healing magic should be all the prompting Raphael's body needs to empty its stomach.]

[Action] meanandgreen February 27 2011, 02:22:20 UTC

[The healing magic jolts his stomach, and he projectile vomits bile and mucous, partially missing the garbage can.]

[Action] honorthecode February 27 2011, 02:30:23 UTC

Leo's watching him with concern, while keeping out of the firing range. He'll reach to add a, he hopes, comforting hand hand to one of Raph's shoulders.]

[Action] i_speak_softly February 27 2011, 02:36:02 UTC

[While Raph is recovering from that, Don will take advantage of his temporary immobility to focus another shot of healing magic on his arm. A few minutes of concentration, and the wounds will be mostly closed.]

[Raph hangs over the garbage can, eyes closed, and convulses with dry heaves that wrack his whole body. But there's nothing in his stomach. All he can throw up is more threads of mucous.]

I d-d-don' feel g-good. [He moans and heaves again. And even with his brothers' hands on him, he just can't stay upright.]

[Action] honorthecode February 27 2011, 02:52:49 UTC

[Leo will tighten his grip a little to try and keep Raph up right. But the vomiting was only adding to the others weakness.]

Don, anything else I can get for him? [He's definitely wanting to do more to help.]

[Action] i_speak_softly February 27 2011, 02:55:35 UTC

He'd probably appreciate some water. [For his own part, he'll rub Raph's shell - no magic now, but only the simple healing power of touch.]

[Action] honorthecode February 27 2011, 03:11:47 UTC

Got it. [He'll make sure Don's got him, before he's slipping out of the room. Shortly later he's coming back with a glass of water. He crouches down by Raph.]

Here Raph, this will help. [He'll help lean Raph back enough and help him, to drink the water if needed.

[Action] meanandgreen February 27 2011, 03:14:04 UTC

[He just wants to lie down, bros. He hasn't even opened his eyes since he started vomiting. All Leo will get in response is a moan.]

[Action] i_speak_softly February 27 2011, 03:27:57 UTC

Just leave it. [He'll help Raph lie down, making sure he's on his side in case he vomits again, stuffing some pillows behind his shell to make the awkward position more comfortable.]

[Action] honorthecode February 27 2011, 03:39:56 UTC

[He sighs, and finds a place to set the glass down. He moves to grab a towel from somewhere to clean up the vomit that missed the can.]

I think we should move him to the couch, or our bed at some point. [He can't stay on the floor forever. Between him and Donny, they should be able to carry him to the couch]

[Action] meanandgreen February 27 2011, 03:43:14 UTC

[Raph moans again, long and low, before puking up more mucous. He's never gonna drink like this again. Never. Fuck, he's never gonna drink at all. He'll never touch the stuff ever again.]

[Action] i_speak_softly February 27 2011, 03:50:12 UTC

Let him get this out of his system first. [He stands up.] Did I miss anything else while I was out?

[Action] honorthecode February 27 2011, 04:34:12 UTC

[Leo nods. They didn't need him vomiting on the couch. He straightens up.]

Nothing else. Everything all right at the forge?
