Case 147 [Audio]

[manofgnee]

[Hanna opens up his audio with a huge fit of coughing, as if his lungs have come loose and are falling out.]

H...heh, sorry...guess I got s...si...

[He stops and starts sneezing again, coughing heavily once more.]

...sick...

Dunno how that happened...

...Doll, dya mind checking on the puppies for me? T...Timothy, dya mind feeding them...?

I think I'm going back to bed...

[With another awful cough, he turns off his device.]

But 'm sick. I don't want you or anybody else I care about to get sick...

[deadly_legacy]

We're going in a circle. Expect soup and company soon. Do you need anything else? More blankets? Medicine? Orange juice?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...probably tissues, too.

And you be careful. I'll feel bad if you get sick because of me!

[deadly_legacy]

I promise to stay healthy! [As if she can keep a promise like that.] And I won't forget the tissues.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Do what you need to stay healthy, Euph.

[deadly_legacy]

Don't worry so much. I'll be fine.

[And maybe an hour later there will be a knock on your door.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Hanna shuffles over and opens the door, giving Euphie a small smile...but he looks pretty miserable, so.]

Hey, Euph.

[deadly_legacy]

Oh, Hanna...

Get back in bed. I'll bring you the soup. [She has a bag full of supplies for him.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[He laughs, before turning away and coughing again.]

Sorry...I woke up with a cough and it just got worse...

[He smiles weakly and nods at the bag.]

You're the sweetest and the nicest, you know that?

[deadly_legacy]

I think it must be a curse. So many other people are sick today too.

[She blushes a little.] You give me too much praise, Hanna.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

OH, really...? Hope it doesn't last too long...

[He shakes his head, still smiling.]

I'm being honest.

[deadly_legacy]

Maybe you'll be all better by midnight! [She hopes so.]

[She smiles at him again and shakes her head.]

Didn't I tell you to get in bed?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh, I hope so...
[Not likely, because torturing Hanna is fun.]

Haha, okay, yes ma'am!

[deadly_legacy]

[And she will just unpack a couple of things and get the soup all set up. It's still hot but it needs a real bowl and a spoon and the next thing you know there will be a pink-haired princess moonlighting as a nursemaid stepping right into Hanna's bedroom as if she lives there.]

I hope you like chicken noodle.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Hanna smiles, looking up from his bed.]

I love it...and you look really pretty today, Euphie.

[Yeah, his inner voice is always more vocal when he's sick.]

[deadly_legacy]

[She blushes slightly.] I didn't do anything special. [She may have put a little more care into what she wore knowing she'd be seeing him.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, you still look really pretty today...

[deadly_legacy]

Thank you. [She sits down on the edge of his bed with a tray that she places on his lap complete with soup!]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you!

[He smiles and scoots forward to properly reach the soup.]

[deadly_legacy]

You're welcome.

[She just watches him eat, or watches away from him so it doesn't seem like she's watching in a strange way. After a minute she reaches over and brushes back his hair.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Aw gee...he smiles and blushes a bit at her.]

It's really good, Euph. Thank you so much...

...you know, if there's anything you want, let me know, I'll get it for you, okay?

[He's sick, but she's still his guest.]

[deadly_legacy]

Hanna, that doesn't even make sense. [Smiling at him.] Or did the soup cure you?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I wish...then I could be a good host...

[deadly_legacy]

You are a good host. I'm a perfectly happy guest. See? [Smiles]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, okay then. You know where everything is if you want something, okay?
