Alora opened her eyes and blinked at the ceiling, then sneezed explosively for a second time and growled, only to sneeze again.

And again.

Grumbling, she held her nose, thinking that she could have taken getting over a concussion with more grace if it hadn't been compounded by some opportunistic virus that had put her on her back for days. But at least the fever was gone now and her stomach didn't feel like it was filing for divorce.

But there was nobody sitting or laying on her bunk, so that meant that Carth and Mission weren't around. That depressed her a little as she pushed herself up against the headboard to have a look around.

"Yeah, well, don't try it."

She chuckled and fell silent for a few moments as she ate, savoring the flavor of the creamy soup, then spoke again. "How long has it been since you actually ate something from the food dispenser?"

"A few hours," he smirked.

"So all that complaining is just you." A slight, affectionate smile showed on her thin face.

"Probably. But I'm old, I have the right," he smirked.

"So old," she teased softly, thinking of the still older-yet-not man that she'd met at the Lunatic Cafe. The one who had given her the white card and told her to keep it safe in case she ever needed help.

"That's right," he said mock-sternly.

[random_xtras]

She chuckled, but then sneezed so explosively and unexpectedly that she bit the tip of her tongue badly. "Mmmph!"

"Ugh, that was nasty," he said, healing her quickly. "careful kid, might loose some of the few brains you've got left if you do that again."
