I push up my sleeves and very gently examine her leg. After I've gotten an idea of the damage, I start my healing touch. "This might get weird but it's how I work." I feel like if I don't warn them they may interrupt.
(OOC: Healing touch incoming.)
I kneel down beside the trapped woman, examining her as best as I can. The head wound clotted, which is good, though she may be concussed. I need to get a look at her leg, but not with that bike in the way. I motion to it, like get on with it alread…
"Yes, I am a doctor, and I don't really appreciate being dragged out to the hills." I reply, yelling to be heard over the sound of the bike.
I really don't like AJ talking to Metro like that. If he wanted to frak her that'd be fine, but the fact th…
I sigh. Stupid candies and their drama. I smile weakly at Metro, hoping like hell this works out ok. I mouth 'stay' like it's a question, though I know if the girl demands it he won't have a choice.
I get on Ruth's bike, not really liking it, but n…
I step in between Metro and the girl, palms up. "Woah now, let's not cause any more injuries I'll need to fix later." I use my best 'everything is fine' voice, which I've gotten unfortunately good at.
"I will come with you, but please do not grab m…
"Oh, you meant a politician from earth. I thought it was some new cult or something I hadn't heard of." His words echo my own gut feeling. It's... unusual to be welcomed like this, even for a doctor and a mechanic.
"So what's the angle I'm not seei…
"An Earther politician? What is that?" I'm not sure why he says it like it's a bad thing. That's the thing about Metro- sometimes his sense of time is faster or slower than what I feel like it should be. We're both over a hundred years old but I don…
I actually turn down the croissant- Lenovo needs it more than me.
"You go ahead, unless you'd rather I go with?" I don't want to step on his toes, and I'd rather get the work done here than be some display of goodwill or something.
He seems ok, U…
"Sure." I agree. "Unless by a few who need checkups you mean a couple dozen." Even then I'd do it, which he can likely see. Bleach would be a huge help and painting the place would go a long way in making it feel like my clinic, rather than just som…
"Alright." I nod. "Bring them over. I don't have beds, but I brought some equipment."
I get his hesitation, I do, I'm just tired of everyone on this planet immediately distrusting you if you much as hint at wanting to do good. And what have they do…
"Thank you so much." I say, trying to savor the pastry instead of devouring it. I am certainly not used to hardholders that are this friendly. I want to take him at face value before assuming he had some ulterior motive, but I can't help thinking it…
I'm thankful to those who give blood and respect the choice they make.
After working hard for hours the smell of bread is heavenly. I don't even remember eating anything today.
"Yes, that's me." I have to resist the urge to offer my hand out to …
Threats to my safety are more obvious- Wendys being first and foremost, though I don't feel that dread that kept me awake so many nights. Happiness is twofold- I'm afraid his programming will result in someone taking or hurting him. I hate that he i…
I gladly accept any help cleaning up Card offers in exchange for examining the folks he brought in with him. I'd likely have done that for free but people don't take something for nothing here. If he has any adults with him I explain the situation w…
The feel of my skin on his thrills me, making me move faster, breathing heavy. I kiss his jaw, his neck, his ear, nuzzling and nibbling.
The build up is slower, but I can feel it coming. "I'm going to feel bad if I have another one before you." I …
"You're a machine, you know that?" I say, grinning. Not that I have a single objection.
Once he moves up enough for me to kiss him, I do so- no tentative little sweet kisses, either. His body presses into mine and that fire inside me that seemed a…
I obediently take my shirt off, tossing it aside. My eyes flutter closed, my breath panting. That indescribable tension builds. My hips rock back and forth. My hands grasp at the sheets.
When he pulls his mouth back I let out a disappointed breath…
"Oh, I'm sure I'll be talking to god shortly, I'll make sure to thank him." I smirk. Warmth spreads through me, but also tension. I want to kiss him, touch him. To join our universes together- it feels corny to think of, but that's how I feel.
At …
As his hands move up my legs my head arches back of it's own accord. My hips tilt toward him lifting my lower back up. That smile! It makes me hungrier for him, though I wouldn't have thought it possible.
I plant one foot on the bed and try to pus…
"That sounds like just the kind of problem you are excellent at solving." I reply playfully while kicking off my boots.
He is beautiful. And mine. "I love you." I say softly, surprising even myself. It's not the first time I've said it, but I don'…
I give him a look- "That's not true! We had a bed on the Ascendant!" Not that I got to see it much, but still!
I lay back and watch, jealous that time hasn't visited him like it has me. I sometimes worry about that- about aging into an old woman w…
I let him lead me- giving no resistance- and smile coyly at him. "Well we certainly can't have that- an unsatisfactory bed just will not do."
I close the distance between us and reach a hand around to the back of his neck, pulling him to me while I…
"Oh, yes." I reply, I can actually stretch out on this bed! I'd like to take a running leap on this bed, but I know better. Things aren't new on this planet, you have to take care of your things or they break.
"It's wonderful, thank you." I say.
I haven't heard of the Hops, but I'm not surprised. The Ascendant is an oddity on this planet. I wonder if there are and more ships that landed here. Probably not- they are ideal for habitation, so I'm sure they would have been found already.
"Mmm…
