this needs to stop happening
Who: Gilbert Nightray & whoever wants to visit
When: afternoon of the 17th
Where: Skye Medical
Summary: Xigbar's creepy monster dog-thing messed him up good for his part in the newcomer hunt raid. He never saw it coming.
Warnings: slight spoilers for PH, mentions of blood and injury
Gil has been overcome by the darkness a few times in the last few years. For the most part, every time he's gotten out of the situation with scratches and bruises, a couple larger wounds, a bullet wound once. But this time had been different. This time the monster seemed far more interested in hurting him; in killing him. And it was quick enough to do damage while he floundered through attempting to use Raven and failing, miserably. The familiar pain in his left hand told him that he was putting too much strain on the Hatter and B Rabbit's seals, and he'd hesitated as he'd been struck.
Again. And again.
If he'd been conscious, he would have told whoever transported him to take him home. If the Core reacted the same way that it did last time, he'd be healed in no time. A day or two, and he wouldn't have to waste time away from his master in the meanwhile. But he stays asleep during the pick up, transport, and the initial check-in to the hospital. He doesn't wake until halfway through the day, several ribs shattered, a wrist and ankle broken, a concussion, bruises and cuts and gashes up his neck and across his chest and legs.
And every single one of those injuries is healing, slowly but surely, without anyone needing to lift a finger to help him.
Crap.
His eyes snap open at the sound of familiar, rhythmic beeping. That's all it takes for him to realize where he's ended up, the memory of this morning rushing back all at once. Crap, crap, crap! Not good!
He doesn't bother to check if anyone else is in the room first before throwing back the blanket and attempting to run as fast as his healing feet will take him, no matter how many wires and tubes are currently attached to him. Stop him, egg him on, catch the aftermath upon failure. He'll be here for a couple of days.
[ooc - have at it, visitors. also I'm still sick, so tags will probably continue to be slow, but I promise I'll get to them all! thank you for putting up with me!]

Friends? I'm glad they found you...
[And he very briefly glances up over Gil's head, where he remembers seeing that mass of black feathers before.] Raven... is your Chain, then?
no subject
Break and Reim are both members of Pandora back home, like me. Oz is...
[My reason for living.]
...my master.
[He knows he's mentioned being a servant, but still, some people look at him funny here when he uses the word. This world is different than his own, but the idea of nobility is antiquated on top of everything else.]
Mm, that's right. It was a risk to call him out during a fight like that; the Core's pull affects the both of us worse than normal when I'm on that side of town.
no subject
And now he's trying to imagine Gil and what's presumably an oversized Raven. Does it peck things to death? Can it fly??]
Is it safe to call him out elsewhere?
[Maybe he could see it sometime...]
no subject
[The price of a legal contract.]
But - it's not a big deal. It's not enough to kill me.
[So clearly that makes it okay.]
no subject
Ah... I understand. Even if it's not, there's no need to overtax yourself.
no subject
[But after saying it, he leans his head back against the pillow and drapes his free arm across his eyes.]
Just 'bad luck'...
