Okay, let's be real. Angel can't stand House. House can't stand Angel. With the vast array of doctorly types in snowhell, there is no conceivable reason she'd ever go to him for medical stuff and expect him to help her out even a little.
Which is exactly why it's what she's doing. He's a dick, but she's happy to acknowledge that he's smart. Smart enough to know that if she's coming to him it has to be for Reasons, and that those reasons aren't to benefit herself. Too much pride, man. ]
Hey. Any chance of you making out a prescription for me? For a dose of a drug called eridium. Which the admin may not even be able to get hold of, but I'm very much in need of it.
[Kesara had thought long and hard about how she was going to present her discovery to House. She'd hoped to do it in person, but she isn't sure when that might happen, and her impatience ends up getting the better of her. It does so before she can think of an appropriate narrative for her heroic find.
So instead she simply sits herself with the little old-fashioned microscope in front of the tablet and grins brilliantly at the camera, all self-satisfied triumph.]
Dr. House, it occurred to me it might be a good idea to list all of the physicians in Norfinbury in the contact list in the survival guide. May I add you to the list?
[She has delayed a few days in finalizing this report, distracted by recent troubles and suddenly leery once more of sharing her location with anyone. She has traveled two days since the last house listed, though, and now that she's beginning to see connections she'd missed before the time seems right to send it.]
Hello Doctor House. I have returned to the tunnel entrance with the food now and I am going to continue onward with the others and explore. I am taking notes and I will send them to you every night so that you will know all the best ways when you come back here.
My head mostly does not hurt anymore; my shoulder hurts but the wound has a good scab and it is not swollen.
[Charlie can hear again and House can probably talk, but their little charades game was fun. Not talking was kind of fun, weirdly. So Charlie just waves at the camera with a smile like he's up to something, then plays a few notes of "Mr. Tambourine Man."
Hey, pal. Remember me?
AC/DC feels like an appropriate choice, so Charlie plays that through. When he's done, he plays a few bars of "Rock With You" with one hand, then looks at the camera expectantly.]
[Typing is getting more painful and difficult, and Ecks would like to get straight to the point. The video message opens immediately to a view of Ecks's left hand, the already uneven skin mottled and covered in boils. She methodically turns it back and forth to show it in its entirety. It's a little hard to say what color any particular patch is supposed to be, but her fingers definitely grow pale toward the tips and she's moving like she's either unable or unwilling to bend them much.
In the past couple of days since that happened, Al has been frantically checking to make sure other people he knows are still around and posting to the network. But there's one grumpy doctor he hasn't seen in at least a few days. He knows this worry will likely get him mocked; and honestly, he almost hopes it does. At least that will mean House is here and alive to mock him.
But he's lost too many people, friends and acquaintances, and he's hurting too much to act like he doesn't still care if House lives or dies, even if he doesn't like him much as a person. Which is why he's calling first thing, voice low and more subdued than usual.]
Hey, it's-- it's Alphonse.
[Obviously.]
If you get this message, please would you get back to me? I haven't seen you around lately and I've been kind of worried.
[A pause, voice growing even softer.]
I hope you're okay.
[Even jerks like House don't deserve what happens in this place.]
so how come when it comes to a girl stitched together out of corpses youre all go on and tell people nobody will give a shit but the moment you see me youre calling me some freakish genetic experiment
so i know messaging you is a mistake and im probably going to regret this whole exchange sooner or later once you start harassing me about something terrible and that in asking this i am basically walking into a bunch of poking and prodding and teasing but what the fuck is the deal with brian and jade i am asking out a real legitimate concern for safety because i have just recently met the guy and holy shit ive got like twenty alarms going off about him i tried asking jade but shes so far up friendships sparkly asshole that it sounds like jingly background music to her
I am in Hsiao▓▓▓▓▓▓ but I cannot come further in because I cannot see ▓▓▓▓▓▓. I waited a day but I still cannot ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓. If I wait more I will have to eat all of the food that I brought ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ leaving food in the cabinets in this house and going ▓▓▓▓▓▓ more food instead. If you can get out of the tunnels there is food in the house.
