[action; infirmary; locked to katara and toph--read ooc note]

[Once the bones had been set and the sling tightly bound around his upper torso and shoulders to keep the one arm close to his body, Zuko was still unresponsive, but his breathing did manage to even out after a while. His chest rose and fell with each deep breath he took while unconscious, completely and blissfully unaware of whoever was in the room with him an hour after Katara and Toph had hurried him to the Infirmary for Dr. Kadowaki to tend to what Katara couldn't heal on her own.]

[ooc; right after this; if word ends up reaching the other atla cast, this is also open to you guys as well since ... well they were all in the class prior to this happening :)]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[He's just going to lay there and say nothing, maybe listen with half-interest to what the other two are doing while trying not to think too much on what Katara's doing. Zuko knew she could waterbend but this ... this is entirely something different.

[Ack! Death! Toph swipes at him, waving her hands to try and make the germs dissipate. Gross!]

[Noticing that Zuko isn't showing any more signs of pain, Katara lifts her hand from his skin, letting the water release back into the basin. She gives Zuko a quick glance before turning around and walking back to Sokka, and without warning she begins to inspect him, fingers pulling his chin down to get a better look at his tongue. She may be pulling down his eyelids, as well.]

Don't breathe on Toph! You'll get her sick.

[Haha, BREEE--ERK.]

'Ata'rwa! Ge'ffem... hnnn.[Sokka slumps with a sigh, giving into Katara's ministrations. Most of his weight's on Toph's shoulder. Good thing she's a sturdy little rock girl, huh?]

[Glances at them from the corner of his eye and snorts, attempting to carefully and slowly lift his free arm to feel the sling holding his other arm tucked in close against his chest.]

[More poking and prodding, and making small noises that sound much like disapproval. Finally she steps back and places her hands on her hips.]

You're going straight back to bed after you take your medicine!

[The door bangs open --yet again-- and Aang leaps in with a gust of air and an armful of fruit.]

Zuko! I came as fast as I heard--

[He notices the rest of the group already gathered around Zuko's bed and skids to a stop right in front of them.]

--Oh. Everyone's already here.

[She better not get sick, Sokka. Or else. She will find your room and lick everything on your side so you get sick again. And then metalbend you inside.]

Gross.

[It's like a big party! Katara brightens when Aang pops in, and momentarily forgets about nagging the sickly Sokka.]

Aang! [She then looks between the Airbender and the cot where Zuko's laying down on. Really, it's strange how everyone seems to be friends with Zuko. It still isn't processing in her mind.]

Uhm, did you come to check on Zuko?

[Toph, that is disgustingly diabolical, he has to hand it to you. Sokka lifts his head up when Aang bursts in (and Katara takes her probing hands away).]

Fruit! Hmm. Any hotdogs in there? A hotdog would be great right now.

[He looks at Toph.] I wonder if hotdog bending has merit. Maybe if we put some metal in them--

WE COULD HAVE A HOTDOG THEATER NIGHT!!

[Right. We'd all like to blame it on the fever.]

Edited 2010-08-26 12:19 (UTC)

Yep! I brought fruit. [He grins in response to Katara's question, lifting the fruit as if no one saw it.]

No hot dogs, Sokka. I don't eat meat, remember?

Here, let me take those-- I'll wash and prepare a few.

[Katara takes the fruit out of Aang's arms, placing them at nightstand just to the side of the room. Picking up one of the peaches, she walks beck to Zuko's bedside, feeling a bit awkward as she holds it up for him to see.]

Uh... do you want some? And don't talk! Just blink twice if you do.

[Like he's going to listen to her. His voice is a little raspy and quiet but she can probably hear him just fine.]

No. I'm fine. Uh.. thanks.

[Katara lets out a small noise that sounds suspiciously like "hmph!" before heading back to the table and bending a bit of water to wash several fruits, including an apple and a pear. Grabbing a few paper towels from the nearby sink, she then formed a small blade out of ice to cut the fruits, dividing them evenly into four portions.

She then goes around and hands a paper towel filled with fruit slices to everyone excluding Zuko, and arrives to Sokka last.]

Make sure you eat them all-- they'll help with your illness! And no hotdogs for you, I can't imagine that'd be any good for you while you're sick.

[Fruit popped in Toph's lap... she picks up one piece, poking at it before eating it. Mouth half full, she speaks.]

Hotdog theater night will come next week, when you're mentally able to handle such awesomeness.

[Sokka holds out a hand.] Aang, just because you don't eat meat doesn't mean that you couldn't be bringing some for Zuko. They're very nutrious! And meaty! And--

[When Katara plops the fruit down in his hand he sighs but crams a slice in his mouth anyway and rests a forearm on Toph's shoulder, leaning on her.] Tell Zuko to eat his! It'll help him recover from his giant lizard bites. [And he sniggers before leaning in towards Toph and whispering.] Next week. Holding you to that.

[Zuko is just going to roll his eyes at Sokka, close them and lay there half-listening to them babble.]

[Aang sighs, not expecting Sokka to understand anyway and turns his attention to Zuko.]

Zuko, you really should eat something.

[Katara almost glares at Zuko's cot at Sokka's suggestion, but Aang's added worry makes her sigh. Begrudgingly, Katara walks back over to Zuko's beside, a napkin of fruits in hand.]

You're not going to get any better on an empty stomach.

[Dr. Kadowaki pops in now, and she's surprised by the sudden gathering of cadets in the infirmary-- were they all sick? But realizing that they're simply visiting the newest patient, she gives them all a warm smile.]

My, looks like you have a lot of friends, Cadet Zuko.

[She bustles over to the other side of the cot, glancing up from her clipboard to check him over.]

Any more pain, dear?

[He had opened his eyes when he sensed Katara near his beside and heard her speaking to him, but before he could open his mouth to reply the doctor had entered.

Zuko looks displeased at the 'you have a lot of friends' comment but doesn't say anything about it.]

Not right now, no. [He then makes the mistake of trying to look over at her, biting back the groan. Gritting his teeth, the tendons in his neck strain against the skin and he's only causing himself more pain, unintentionally; he squeezes his eyes shut and goes pale all over again, breathing shallowly through his nose.

Stupid- stupid--]

You're not supposed to move--!

[Forgetting that Dr. Kadowaki is standing on just the other side of the bed, Katara summons a sheath of water to glove her hand. Immediately she presses the hand to his neck, the water glowing under her touch.]

[Dr. Kadowaki expected Zuko to express some pain especially with the type of injury he was sustaining, so she wasn't alarmed when she heard the wince come from him. However, her eyes widen as she watches the young girl move into action, seemingly controlling the water to do something.]

Dear, what are you doing?

[Zuko only has to wait a few moments before the pain gradually fades to leave a dull ache in his shoulder, his breathing evening out bit by bit, face relaxing. There's still a crease in his brow even as he opens his eyes to look at the waterbender.]

Yeah... What are you doing? What have you been doing this entire time? [Quiet, raspy words laced with pain, he can see the glow from the corner of his eye but never takes them off of her, watching her face the entire time.]

[Katara looks up at the Doctor when Kadowaki voices the question and manages to look a bit sheepish-- she has forgotten that her healing powers aren't know by anyone of this world. Her eyes flicker down to Zuko when he voices his own wonder as well, and detecting that the pain hasn't fully alleviated, she keeps her hand on his neck.]

I'm... I can heal with my waterbending. It has to do with controlling the flow of chi in the body. [And she conveniently leaves out the fact that she can possess control over blood as well-- no one will ever know, if she can help it.]
