 THE SICK DAY MEME

RULES
► Post with your character, name and fandom in the header.
► They are now, for some odd reason, sick (headache, fever, runny nose, cough, whatever you want).
► Another character replies and is struck with the sudden urge to take care of them (bringing them soup, extra blankets, Sudafed, sexual healing, what have you).
► Go from there!

Go forth and unleash your righteous fury on the unsuspecting. I'm certain after one blistering missive they'll bow to your demands.

[and she's just planting a fleeting kiss right on his lips to be a nuisance]

[tortileghostwriter]

They had better.

[and he's just putting his arms tighter around her to bug her]

[thorny]

Or else they're be stereotypical hell to pay, I assume.

[she's only snuggling in closer because it's cold]

[tortileghostwriter]

Naturally.

[he's only

oh, fuck it. he kisses her.]

[thorny]

[how uncharacteristically sincere of him. not that she really has any room to point that out, considering the way her arms sneak up to tangle in his hair as she kisses back.]

[tortileghostwriter]

[yeah, he's not at his best right now. and his brow shifts a little at that, but he isn't going to break this just to comment on it.]

[thorny]

[it's hard to keep a handle on impulsive reactions when it feels like the second coming of Athena is trying to burst her way through your skull, ok. just take what you get and be grateful for it.]

[tortileghostwriter]

[he was hardly complaining.]

[thorny]

[she figured]

[tortileghostwriter]

[glad that's settled]

[thorny]

[yes, everything can be at peace now]

[tortileghostwriter]

[unfortunately, air is important, so he finally pulls away from that.]

[thorny]

[she levels him with a solemn look, tone mockingly serious]

For all your posturing against biological warfare you're staggeringly horrid at containment. I'll admit to being a little disappointed.

[tortileghostwriter]

[poker face.]

Hardly. It's a quarantine.

[thorny]

I wasn't aware that new procedures required officials to put themselves in harm's way for the sake of checking for infectious diseases.

[please boy you are so full of shit]

[tortileghostwriter]

Given that the infection has already spread, it's hardly an issue.

[is this news]

[thorny]

Ah yes, how could I forget your initial bungling of keeping the immediate area hazard free. My sincerest apologies.

[not particularly. just thought it bore repeating.]

[tortileghostwriter]

If you'd rather I had stopped administering to your care, I can certainly take that under consideration...

[just as mock serious now.

and oh ok.]

[thorny]

You'll recall that I never requested any in-home treatment in the first place. The only reason you were lucky enough to have me cooperate is that it's rather difficult to protest at half power.

[honestly if she had her way she'd have never spent much time in bed at all.

excedrin and fluids can fix this, no fuss necessary. really.]

[tortileghostwriter]

That would never have done at all.

[are you complaining]

[thorny]

Your gross underestimation of my ability to care for myself when under the weather is more than a touch insulting.

[maybe

what if she is]

[tortileghostwriter]

Hardly. I have no doubt that you are able, my problem lies in the idea that you should be made to in the first place.

[then he might just kiss her again]

[thorny]

[oh. well. she supposes that's acceptable enough.]

[tortileghostwriter]

[thought it might be.]

[thorny]

[lucky guess. it won't happen again.]
