Hospitals and Visits, Oh My!

[punchvolcanoes]

Who: Sick animals and you
What: Hospital visits!
Where: FDC's Pokecenter
When: Anywhere between the 13th to the 21st!
Warnings: Guys being guys. Mons being mons.

For the next few days, everything was a blur for the both of them. Sasha felt sick to her stomach from everything, being unusually quiet apart from the small talks to the people online. But she was afraid no one would ever want to talk to her again after what happened. Guilty didn't even begin to scratch how she felt, especially after fights broke out in school that seemed to imply her attack was the catalyst. It felt terrible.

Most of her days, she spent watching the IV needles run down and drip, looking over at Vinnie but moving her head away before he could look at her and trying to replay the scenario and see what she could have done otherwise.

She could try to learn from this.

On the other hand, Vinnie had no regrets about his own actions. He was convinced that if he'd personally done anything different, pulled any punches, the results of that day would've been much, much worse. Inevitable as it was, it was the consequences that followed which weighed on him, as much as he tried not to show it.

His sister was tearing herself apart. His trainer was disgraced and his family worried sick. And he had disappointed anyone who might've been his friends. Somehow, he had to make it better. In comparison, his own grief felt irrelevant. Maybe even selfish.

It was probably why he was spending more and more time in his human form, even if it kept opening up his wounds. That way, he wouldn't have to be reminded of what he'd lost in Volgin's mutilation. Two leaves, amputated. It was enough to cripple him as a Venusaur.

Vinnie wanted out of this bed. To stop feeling nauseous and weak and get back into action as soon as possible. Maybe then he'd feel less helpless against everything.

[OOC- please post your date of the visit at the start of each log post 8Dc Also Char shows up after the 15th due to a gun shot to the tail. Green team is facing Red Team after that.]

I hope backdating this is okay; December 14th

Nephenee didn't know the Pokemon involved, but she did know this was all too close to things back where she came from, not too long ago. And it made her sad. So she decided to visit the pokemon and see how they were, and brought some flowers along, too. She knocked on the door to the room where they were kept. Maybe she could help a little?

Sasha was a mess that day, the bullet was going to get operated on later that night, and so there were fresh tissues all over it, and she still had breathing apparatus. She looked up at the person...not knowing who it was, felt a bit ashamed.

But she did manage to raise a clawed hand in greeting.

Wow, so these were kind of like Laguz. And since she didn't know anything about why there was a fight, she was very happy to be in the neutral zone. For all she knew, these poor things acted out of self defense.

She walked a bit closer.

"I know we've not met and all, but I heard ya'll got hurt pretty bad...so I wanted to come see ya."

Man, last time she'd seen a dragon, she'd either fought alongside them, or had to kill them to save her friends. The memories sent a shiver down her spine.

Blink, blink. So she was a new student Or teacher. Sasha couldn't tell anymore. But it was nice that some random stranger thought it would be good to visit them; in fact it made her feel much better than a few minutes before.

However her lack of speech would make conversation pretty useless, so she let Vinnie continue to talk.

If by talk, you mean, lift his fat frog-dinossaur head drowsily to stare at the newcomer. He didn't recognize the girl either, but it was obvious that she came to them in sympathy.

The nurses had been giving him hell about transforming right after surgery. He did it once already and boy, was that a mistake. Chunks of skin missing, blood everywhere - how the human form was affected by Pokemon injuries was still an unperfected art. The best they could do was treat it and hope the wounds wouldn't open up every time he changed.

This not-quite-a-dragon-more-like-a-toad-flower creature tilted his head slightly, curious about the stranger. He looked ill, and his foliage seemed decidedly incomplete.

Okay dinoflowersaur she isn't sure what you look like, but you look very sad. So she comes over and tries to pet you on the head, if you allow her.

Despite being a bit gruff about accepting pats from strange girls, Vinnie didn't protest. The flowery reptile let his head rest back on his padded reptile paws, and closed his eyes with a soft, low grumble.
