Pained, but steady. My nose is broken, as well, so it's a bit rough breathing, in general. I'm taking Tramadol in the evenings and ibuprofen during the day. I'm guessing it's a hairline fracture more than something serious for my ribs.

[It better be, because Claire is not looking to perform yet another emergency pneumothorax in terrible conditions, okay, Watson? Okay.]

What are your plans? I'd like to see you. I know you are one, but you doctors are really good at not taking care of yourself. I'm new, impartial to whatever happened that got you in that situation, and I'd like to help.

Are you going straight to the hospital, or are you stopping at the clinic for some rest?

I'll be heading to the clinic with my patient while some traveling companions gather food tomorrow. We're not planning to stay, though. I need to get to the hospital. I have a friend who's going to meet me there.

[He's the asshole up a little ways.]

I appreciate your offer of help, but you don't need to come out of your way for me if you've got any other plans.

what kind of plans would i possibly have? one, i don't know anyone here, so i have nobody to meet

[Yep. She's a little bitter about that.]

two, you need assistance, which i can give you. and three, the hospital seems like a good place to look for supplies, isn't it? so i might as well.

don't protest, Dr Watson. it'll just make me more determined.

I feel like I ought to be saluting and saying, 'M'am, yes m'am!'

I just didn't want to interrupt if there was anyone else you had plans to help. We should be down at the hospital in three or four days if the weather stays clear.

[She smiles again, even though he can't see it, and nods appreciatively.]

Maybe you should be

so far, nobody else has come forward with any injuries that need looked after. I'll be making my way south tomorrow morning, but i am not sure yet how long it will take me to get to the hospital. I shall keep you posted!

Thank you. I'll look forward to meeting you in person, Claire. Still sorry to spring all of this on you when you've only just arrived.
nursetemple: (you think you're impressive)

Better this than to be left stewing with my own thoughts and nothing to do, John.

Touche.

[Work is his distraction, too.]

Keep warm on the trip here, and good luck. If you need anything, let me know and I'll try to keep an eye out for it while we're on our way south.

Thank you. Just looking to find more medical supplies - makeshift will do as well, really. But don't worry about me. Just keep pressure on that stab wound, alright?

Sure. I'll talk to you soon.
