I'll try, but we might end up all passing out without realizing it again.

[recession]

...I didn't want to think about that, in this situation.

[ He's been kind of high-strung about it, counting the days and recounting what happened what day on the previous week. He's hoping it's not the case but you never know. Except we both OOC know. ]

Just be sure to rest.

[turbulency]

I will. I don't want to make more work for you, doctor.

[ smiles ]

[recession]

Good.

[ Putting a plate of fruit on the bedside. ]

If you feel like eating. Fruit is easy, at least. Sugar for the mood, goes down easy.

[turbulency]

[ Looks at it. ]

Will it make me high?

[recession]

If you eat a lot of it, yeah.

But I'm hoping it'll be a good sedative substitute in controlled amounts.

[turbulency]

... That's smart of you.

[ eats it politely ]

[recession]

Just trying to make the best of what we've got to work with.

[ Also his canon is 1942 he probably doesn't have major qualms about giving an 18 year old morphine if it came down to it. Then again he doesn't let Marina have alcohol despite them both being European so maybe he's weirdly progressive. ]

[turbulency]

Did you get the medical supplies from the cultists?

[recession]

I did. I requested them from Death upon our first meeting.

[turbulency]

That's really prepared of you. I can't remember the last time I had to get patched up with a bandage...

[recession]

...The circumstances are... I had reason to be prepared in case.

Get injured often, Mr. Geto?

[turbulency]

I used to, but it's been a while. My friend would always heal me up after, anyway.

[ Thanks Shoko. ]

You must've seen a lot worse than this, in any case.

[recession]

I have, but it doesn't make these situations any less pleasant.

Just because a wound is "better" than what I've seen doesn't make it any less serious.

[turbulency]

How long have you been in medicine?

[recession]

...A couple of years now...

[ He says it ponderously but it's not like a mysterious thing on purpose I just don't have an actual timeline. ]

I was taught by the Baron whose manor I worked for. Pretty renowned in the field, apparently.

[turbulency]

You're telling me that you're a famous doctor?

[recession]

Me? Hell no. Ask just about anybody my name and I'm pretty sure the answer would be "who?".

[turbulency]

But you worked with a fancy Baron...

[recession]

That doesn't mean anything. Do you know the names of every famous person's butler, assistant, student, just because they were associated with them?

On the front lines of war, we're all the same.

[turbulency]

[ ? ]

You fought in a war?

[recession]

Yeah.

Every able-bodied man in a nation dragged into the Second Great War has probably seen it. And the First one too. Just about every man and woman and kid's seen some level of war.

[turbulency]

How long ago was that? The one you fought in.

[recession]

Not that long ago...

Barely been over a month, including my time here right now.
