FTEC, Friday Night

Natalie arrived to find the clinic busier than it had been in a while. She made her patient rounds, then set about finishing some of her tests in the lab.

[OOC: Sorry for the late post. I was on the road, and got to my stopping point a bit later (read: two hours later) than I had hoped. Please use the NPC nurse for medical needs, and if you're still an inmate, I mean, patient, please feel free to start your own room thread. I'll be able to edit tags tomorrow afternoon if needed. Again, apologies for any inconvenience. ::muttering about metro traffic::]

Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke was still here, slightly more awake, and doing the hundred yard stare like he was getting paid for it.

Rory returned from a run to the dorms with several important things.

"I brought you Pop Tarts," she said, holding up a box. "And there's coffee in a thermos, if you want some. And I have books. No Sun Tzu."

Luke gave her a small smile. "Yeah, military tactics are clearly not my strong suit."

"I brought these," she said, walking over and holding up a copy of Grimms' Fairy Tales. "Happy endings for the win."

"Sounds wonderful," Luke said. "What do the Pop Tarts taste like?"

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"These are strawberry," she said, "but they come in other flavors. I like these because they're colorful."

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

"The machine in my room makes purple pancakes," Luke offered. "I can do colorful. I'm just not sure I'm hungry."

Rory tore the...oddly shiny wrapping on the Pop Tarts, and broke off a small piece. "Look, ranbow sprinkles."

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Is that a good thing or not?" Luke asked.

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory held out the piece. "Try it," she coaxed.

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke took it--only because it was Rory who was asking--and popped it into his mouth. "Sweet," he said, making a face.

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory promptly burst into tears.

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke looked panicked. "What did I do? Rory?"

Z knocked on the doorframe and said, "Hey, roomie."

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Hey," Luke said with a small smile as his mun killed LJ for not sending a notification.

He looked like hell.

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[multiplez]

*beats LJ with a stick*

"How're you doing?" Z asked carefully. "And what happened?"

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"I've had better weeks," Luke replied with a forced smile. "And it turns out that lightsabers are really sharp."

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[multiplez]

"And here I thought they just glowed. Is there, um, anything I can do for you? Anything I can get from our room?"

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"I'll be fine," Luke said. "Rory's going to be stopping by to make sure Yoda's okay."

Yoda, it should be noted, had probably not noticed that Luke was missing. He smiled. "But thank you."

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[multiplez]

"Last time I checked, he seemed to be turtling away," Z assured him. "So, um, what happened exactly?"

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Turns out I'm not as good with a lightsaber as I thought I was," Luke said, focusing on the bedsheet. "Or telekinesis."

Which would explain the extensive bruising.

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[multiplez]

Z looked doubtful. "Luke. You'd have to be really truly horrendous to cut your own hand off. I'm not calling you a liar," she stressed. "I'm just saying."

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke shrugged. "Yeah, well."

It was pretty obvious he wasn't going to explain things further. "How are you?" asked in a complete change of subject.

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[multiplez]

"...not the one in a hospital bed."

Re: Exam One: Luke Skywalker

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

"Point," Luke said. "They don't serve purple pancakes here. I'm thinking of writing up a note of complaint."
