[vaccination]

Date & Time: August 1st
Location: Transport clinic
Characters: Ellie, Joel, and their hot nurse Kaneis
Summary: Joel pops some stitches, Ellie brings him to a magical redhead
Warnings: Descriptions of blood/gore are likely!

Getting anywhere in the rain always seemed to take longer than anything else. Thankfully, they don't get lost on their way to their destination, and Ellie heaves a sigh of relief once she sees the clinic doors. Good. They made it. Her footsteps already feel lighter, any injuries of her own forgotten.

"Almost there. I got the door," she says to Joel, running ahead and holding it open for him. She leans inside. Sure looked like a clinic, or what remains she'd seen of labs and research facilities. Except this definitely felt alive. It felt hopeful.

"Hello? Need some help over here!"

[wilder]

Hm...

Take a deep breath for me and tell me if you feel a very sharp pain.

[vaccination]

Do I have to?

[She groans... quietly.]

More like a dull ache.

[wilder]

Heh, sorry. I haven't been given clearance to the X-Ray machines yet.

[He nods] But hey, good news. Your ribs probably aren't broken.

[vaccination]

So, you can magic me all back to normal?

[wilder]

Should be able to, yeah!

[vaccination]

Okay.

[She sits there. That's all she needs to do, right?]

[wilder]

[He'll finish up the bandage, taking a step away from joel so he doesn't accidentally...cast on him. More concentrating, more white glowing, and what not]

Heal!

[And yep, sure enough her injuries are getting fixed up by white sparkly magic. It's like a bedazzle image without Snoop Dogg ]

[vaccination]

Whoa.

[And just like that, the aches and pains dim. Ellie stares down at herself, awestruck.

It's kind of cooler when it's being used on you.]

Fuck, that is so cool.

[wilder]

Haha, why thank you!

[Doing magic to the newbies is always so much more fun than people jaded to magic]

How's it feel now?

[vaccination]

[She's pressing her hands against her ribs, something that would probably get a cry out of her minutes before.]

It's--fine. Perfect.

[wilder]

Haha, good!

But make sure to take it easy the next couple days, okay? No trying to carry middle aged men or anything.

[vaccination]

[That gets a smile out of her. She looks over at Joel--she'll kick his ass if she ever has to wash his blood off of her hands again, or scrub it out of her clothing.]

That's the plan. I'll make sure he doesn't overdo it, too.

Thank you.

[wilder]

Good. I'll hold you to that. He seems like a type that needs looking out for.

Heh..just doing my job.

[vaccination]

Oh, definitely. It's why I have to boss him around all the time.

[wilder]

Haha, sounds like my sister.

[vaccination]

What, needing to be bossed around?

[wilder]

Nah, more like doing the bossing.

[vaccination]

Oh, so you need to be bossed around.

[wilder]

Hey, I think I can take care of myself.

[vaccination]

With a power like that, I think I fucking believe you.

You're... what, a superhero?

[wilder]

Aha- uh, a what?

[vaccination]

Protector of the innocent, guardian of the unfortunate... hero. With super powers.

[The guys usually have a bit more... bulk, but hey. Ellie knows not everything is like comics.]

[wilder]

Oh- hahaha, no. Nothing like that.

[He shakes his head, shoving his hands into his pockets and giving a shrug]

I'm just a guy who can use magic. Mine's not even that strong compared to other people in my world. Nothing...'super' about me.

[vaccination]

It's just a normal thing, where you're from?

[wilder]

Yeah. Anyone with elven blood can do it.

[Which he doesn't have, but shhhhh details]
