FTEC, Saturday Night

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy? So not in a good mood.

Okay not that he ever was, but an inability to take care of his temper via 1) Drinking or 2) Loud swearing was not helping matters.

He nodded with approval when he saw the sign that Alanna put up. After thinking about it, he added:

And when I find out who did this I am taking their balls and FEEDING THEM TO THE TRASH COMPACTOR

He started smoking and keeping an eye out for trouble.

[ooc: As always, for patients coming to FTEC 6pm or later Fandom time.]

[ooc: As of 1am Eastern the FTEC players are in bed. Anybody coming in before the Sunday day shift shall have to mod the nurse for their care. Night!]

[fandomtroopers]

The troopers made a very dramatic entrance. Those up front pushed open the doors and quickly made room for their two buddies who were carrying Seras between them.

Tommy crushed his cigarette into an ashtray and came over. He couldn't speak but he could give a WTF? face with the best of them.

Seras looking embarrassed as well as injured indicated with her hands that she's like something to write with, please.

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy grabbed one of the white boards that the nurse had picked up earlier and handed it to her with a marker.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras stepped down from the Trooper's makeshift chair and gave them a thankful wave.

She took the white board and wrote:

NEED BURN CREAM
AND BANDAGES
KNEE ALSO HURTS

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy nodded. Since she'd mentioned the knee, he motioned to ask if she wanted to lean on him while they went to an exam room.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras pursed her lips.

The Troopers might still be around and she didn't want to hurt their feelings by having them think she's just let them carry her. Also, as the adrenaline in her system began to dissipate, the pain in her knee became more noticeable.

She nodded and accepted Tommy's offer of help.

[fandomtroopers]

The troopers, their one moment of glory gone, turned around and headed back outside. Maybe they could rescue someone else!

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy helped take her weight as they went over to Exam 1. He guided her onto the table, then snapped on a pair of gloves so he could start to work.

He pointed to the word BURN on the whiteboard, then gave a questioning look to indicate where?

And yes, he was hellaciously annoyed that he couldn't talk during all this.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras held out her hands which had burns from when she'd tried the hairspray trick on the footman.

They were also bleeding from the broken glass on the floor where she'd fallen.

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy gave her a wry look. He'd seen too many dumb kids to not be able to guess how she'd gotten those burns. On the other hand the Troopers hadn't arrested her, so he stopped caring at that point if she'd done it to be a vandal or in self defense.

He got to work cleaning the wounds of broken glass and other debris.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras, who had often been on the recieving end of looks like that, often under somewhat similar circumstances, glowered back at Tommy.

She'd have stuck out her tongue, but she was trying to maintain her dignity, there.

He hit upon a particularly large piece of glass and she winced and gave a silent yelp.

So much for that.

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

If she'd been a guy, Tommy would've called her a wimp. But she wasn't anymore so he motioned for her to wait a sec and went to one of the cabinets.

He came back with a spray, indicating it could help her hands if she wanted it.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras, quite sensitive about that matter, picked up 'You're a Wimp' vibes, and resumed glowering.

She did hold out her hands, indicating that she agreed to their being sprayed.

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy gave her a look back to indicate he didn't give a rat's ass about the glaring.

He sprayed her hands to temporarily numb them, then resumed working to clean out the debris.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras felt her skin go numb.

Oh, that's what it does.

She watched Tommy work on her hands some more and then realized something. God! How could she have been so bloody stupid?

She snatched her hands away and grabbed the white board again.

Quickly she scrawled

HAVE TO WARN
IT IS DEMONS
EVERYONE NEEDS TO STAY INSIDE
DON'T LET ANYONE IN

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy read that, then gave her a look. He gestured towards FTEC's sign as a way of pointing out it was going to be a little hard for him to keep everyone out.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras winced and nodded.

Then she wrote:

WAY OF KNOWING WHO'S AT DOOR?
VIDEO CAMERA? BUZZER?

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy motioned for her to give the board back.

Sanctuary spell

He couldn't believe he'd just had to write that. Or that, in theory, he needed to thank that Veronica chick.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras nodded.

Then, she bit her lip and wrote out WAY TO WARN EVERYONE?

The look she gave Tommy might be described as beseeching.

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

That one Tommy was stumped on. He shrugged to indicate he didn't know. Then he wrote.

Not leaving my post if people need help. You can stay here if you want to be safe.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras bit her lip and shook her head.

Her injuries were minor. She didn't need to stay when she could get back and warn the others.

She held out her hands again, indicating that she'd like Tommy to continue, please.

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

Tommy nodded and got to work. Her hands cleaned, he applied a burn lotion and wrapped them up. He then went on to check her knee.

[union-jane.livejournal.com]

Seras flexed her fingers in their bandages and watched Tommy examine her knee.

She could still bend it, though it did throb, a bit like it felt after having it kicked in a football match.

[ladder62.livejournal.com]

After checking it out, Tommy wrote. Probably sprained.
