Christian opened up the clinic, hoping Lilly would stop by for a follow-up examination.

(He also hoped she wouldn't turn out to be psychotic and spray paint his belongings with obscenities.)

Nadia, alas, was not Lilly. She also didn't have Moral with her. She does, however, have a feathered, belled stick and a rather unpleasant expression on her face due to the fact that she had to stay up all night and shake this stick every half hour, apparently to keep bad spirits from sneaking in through her concussion.

She's mostly just hoping someone will tell her to go to sleep. Possibly for an entire tv season week.

Christian looked up as Nadia came into the clinic. He recognized her as the girl with the annoying robot at the music store. "Can I help you?" he asked.

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia squints slightly at the doctor. Oh. It's him.

"Ms Weatherwax told me I had to come back in today to see if bad spirits had snuck into my brain."

She's just a touch too tired to realize how completely insane that sounds. After a moment, she shakes her stick at him.

"...bad spirits?" Christian repeated. "Don't tell me, you came in for an exorcism?"

[nadiathesaint]

It takes Nadia an extra moment to remember what "exorcism" means, but when she does she shakes her head. Very very carefully. "I got hit on the head yesterday in class. And the creepy witch lady said that my head was cracked and bad spirits could get in, but she gave me the stick to keep them away, and to come back here in the morning." She shrugged. "I'd say she was crazy, but this is Fandom."

"You were treated by a witch doctor?" Christian repeated in disbelief. "Come here, sweetheart, let me take a look at you." He pulled out a penlight and flashed it her eyes. "Any dizziness or vomiting? Headache?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Dizziness, yes. Headache, very yes. Didn't throw up, though." Nadia let herself be examined with some relief. Odds were good this guy wouldn't be giving her any silly 'graggla graggla gree' phrases to be repeating to herself all night. "You can give me painkillers now, right?"

[sexydoctor.livejournal.com]

"I can give you some painkillers for the headache," Christian said, "but you need to avoid any physical activity for a few days. Just get some rest. Do you need a doctor's note?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Um, probably." She thought for a moment. The lack of sleep and the headache were combining to make that very, very difficult. "I think I have a midterm today. Ohhh, that's bad. I think a note would be a good idea." She looked at the doctor again. "Sorry about the robot thing."

"You're lucky it didn't poke holes in my suit," Christian said, only half-kidding. "What's your name, kid?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Nadia," she replied dutifully. Then looked at him suspiciously. "You're not plotting revenge, are you? Because the other guy who looks like you might already be doing that, and I really don't need more than one person plotting revenge on me."

Christian blinked at her. "No, I need your chart, assuming the voodoo priestess made one."

[nadiathesaint]

"Oh. Okay then. There were a bunch of us who came in at the same time, so she might not have had time to make charts. Can you check to see if Professor Mac got treated, too? I think he broke his leg."

[sexydoctor.livejournal.com]

Christian rummaged through the charts. "These are useless," he muttered, starting a fresh one for Nadia. He wrote down her symptoms and diagnosis and asked "Last name and class year?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Santos, freshman." She tried to get a look at the chart. "I got burned, too, but those don't hurt so much any more."

[sexydoctor.livejournal.com]

"Let me see," Christian said, setting down the chart. "What were you doing to get these injuries?"

[nadiathesaint]

"Fighting robots." Nadia holds out her left hand, first, which has been scorched along the outside edge of the palm. "They had lasers."

[sexydoctor.livejournal.com]

Christian examined her hands. "They look good, there shouldn't be any scarring," he said. He wrote a doctor's excuse for the midterm and a prescription for painkillers from the NPC Pharmacy. "If you get nauseous or have more dizzy spells, come back here, okay?"

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia nodded. "Thanks. You're a lot nicer than the witch lady." She held up the stick again. "Do you think she'll want this back?"

[sexydoctor.livejournal.com]

Christian gingerly took the stick between thumb and finger and hastily dropped it behind the desk. "I'll make sure she gets it," he said.

[nadiathesaint]

"Okay." Nadia stood and slowly made her way out the door. "Bye."

"Seeya, kid," Christian said, then settled back behind his desk with his copy of Maxim. He was reading it for the articles, really.
