You've reached Ray's phone. Good for you. Clearly I haven't answered said phone, so you're just going to have to leave a message. Suck it up, princess.
[The brief moment of relief at seeing him fades into worry, and Nick sits down in one of the chairs next to the bed, pushing the hand not trapped in a sling through his hair.]
Well I almost bled to death, my arm is completely useless, I think the doc said I had a concussion, and I have like nine million stitches. Well. That's a bit of an exaggeration. My bad knee was giving me trouble earlier, but hey, morphine.
[he shrugs.]
All things considered though, I can say with full confidence that I've had worse.
That just means that my track record for survival is ridiculously good. I'm the Highlander. Or something.
[Ray doesn't catch the awkwardness, he's a little too busy rubbing at stitches on his forehead that he really shouldn't be fucking with but DAMN IT IS ITCHY.]
Fuck if I remember, doc mentioned it while I was all shot up with pain killers. Week or so? Better not be longer than that, I'm going to lose my fucking mind.
[blugh antenna. Blugh nick stopping Ray from doing stupid things. blugh blugh blugh]
Oh, there's something else too. There's little metal things like, in my spine now. I mean I can't see them because they're behind me, but that's what the doctor said.
Like, little metal... ports? That egg thing I got a while back is supposed to plug into them, I think. Aaand I kind of think that might be important at some point. Sherman confiscated it. I need it back.
Dude. I'm pretty sure most of the time you love being a pain in the ass. ...but you're welcome. I'll, uh. See what I can do to make them shut up about the antenna, too.

Have they said how long you'll have to be in here?

Date: 2014-03-25 07:23 am (UTC)Maybe you are the Highlander. An alien Highlander with antenna.
[All right, awkwardness gone at that, Nick makes a face at him and reaches over to pull his hand away.]
Don't do that, you'll end up making yourself get stuck here longer. No one wants to see your lose your mind. More than usual.
