03 | Action & Text

Who: Airy & OPEN
Where: Genessia Hospital
When: March 29th - April 3rd
What: After these happenings. She's in the hospital for a few days before being allowed to head home and some text's to friends.
Warnings: Talks of Blood and injuries.

[Airy doesn't remember the first 12 hours in the hospital which saves her from at least twelve hours of boredom. She isn't good at staying put and thinking about her kidnapping makes her head spin and then hurt. She can't have caffeine or anything else she enjoys because of the medicine they have her taking and the steady stream of blood being pumped into her arm. Her ankle and shoulder are bandaged but the painkillers stop them from hurting.

The worst part about painkillers is that they make it to hard to focus on things like reading or writing but it isn't enough to just knock her out and make her sleep. She ends up playing a lot of candy crush on her phone; after sending a few somewhat awkward texts to those she knew.

Her stomach rumbles and she drops her phone onto her abdomen as if that might make the insistent feeling go away. Airy really likes eating, specifically breakfast, and while the food here isn't awful it isn't very good either. She misses real food and that fact alone makes her sad.]

Text; OPEN

I'm bored. Anyone interested in talking? Or telling me a story? Any distraction?

Private Text; Danny & Dave & Nathan

Thank you for saving me.

Private Text; Cas

Sorry... I have the candy and real, not spidery moving twinkies. Something came up... I don't know when I'll be able to stop by. I haven't forgotten though!

I'll see you soon okay?

Deal!

[SHE CAN HELP!]

Either. You can chose from all the songs you know, even future ones, but I want to hear it if possible.

[ he folds his arms across his chest, face going blank while he thinks it over further, uncharacteristically silent. there's some serious thought going into it. what song. would be him. in music form. it's a difficult question.

he wants to pick something cool. he wants it to be the best song ever. he doesn't know if that suits him. he considers throwing a joke song out to make her laugh instead of thinking as hard as he started to about it. yeah.

after a long pause he plays one of his untitled sound clips for her with a fraction of a smirk on his face. that's what he picked. the song that autoplays after it, is not. he just shrugs at it.

sure. that can be him. whatever. he doesn't know what the actual answer would be. ]

I got nothing.

[Airy laughs softly as the second song begins to play.]

I'm sorry. Too much pressure? You'd definately be a cool song but one with rhythms that you might not expect so maybe something that blends different types of music together. Something unique. [She looks up at Dave curiously.]

What do you think of that?

Nah. There's no pressure. I've just got too many sweet tracks. [ plays it off. too much pressure. he listens to her, bites the inside of his cheek in thought. something unique? blended? ]

So. What you're saying is - I'm the shuffle button? [ is that a good thing ]

[Airy laughs at Dave's conclusion.]

That's not what I meant but we can go with that. That's pretty cool. Shuffle button is the best, isn't it?

[So not a bad thing.]

I wonder what I'd sound like...

[Airy's now deep in thought.]

It is until that embarrassing track you definitely didn't want playing in front of people starts up while - [ the next song starts. his timing is impeccable. ] Oh my god. [ slides his hands up under his sunglasses and puts his head down in them ] Fucking squiddles.

[ he picks his head up after dropping his hands and putting his glasses securely back into place. then grabs his phone to quickly find a song to switch it to. ]

Yours would have to be something that borders on classical. Let's see...

[Airy can't help it. She bursts into loud, unhindered laughter as the sound of squiddles fill the room. She wipes away at the tears that have begun to gather at the corner of her eyes.]

I'm sorry. I don't mean to laugh. They sound so cute. [She doesn't hate the song, in fact, Airy sort of likes it.]

I don't even know what squiddles are but I bet their adorable.

[She tries to subdue her laughter.]

Classical? I don't think I'm that classy.

[ groan. the tables have turned. he's over it fairly quickly - or doing a good job of pokerfacing any embarrassment. ]

I don't know. It's this stupid fucking TV show about cute squids having tickle fights and being best friends based on actual eldrich fucking horrors. Jade was obsessed with them so I was trying to remix it for her. I forgot that was in there.

[ shaking his head ]

You don't have to be classy to have a pretty instrumental piece.

[Airy continues to smile.]

I like it. It sounds cute and squids are adorable.

[At least the cartoon ones are.]

I'm not very pretty either Dave. What sort of instruments are you thinking?

Guess I'm getting you some squiddles for your birthday now.

[ shrug ]

Strings, maybe.

If you can get them here.

[It'd be cool to see.]

Strings sound cool. Like Bitter Sweet Symphony? [She has no idea when that song came out.]

Challenge fucking accepted.

[ how the fuck is he going to get his hands on a squiddle. why did he say that so confidently? he has no idea. ]

Possibly? [ what song is that. he'd probably know it if he was listening to it, he thinks. he can't be bothered to remember the names of songs. ] Like an actual symphony. A very clear leimotif that everyone would buy if your life had a soundtrack and use as their audition to fucking Julliard then dance to it at their wedding.

[ his thumb hovers over his phone, circling around like he's unsure if he wants to share what he thinks sounds close enough to what he's trying to describe or not. it's not really his style. he seems to decide against it at the last second, chickening out on sharing anything that doesn't have a heavy bass line. the song now playing has nothing to do with anything now. he didn't make it. snoop did. ]

[Airy just shakes her head, she hadn't meant it as a Challenge but she'll be excited to see what he comes up with.]

The song isn't an actual symphony, I don't think. [She needs to learn more about music now.]

Snoop dog? [She smiles remembering the song.] Ah, I remember my mom hated this song. It was sorta funny though, all the kids in school liked it. It was really popular.

[She doesn't have it on her phone.]

Didn't think so. But yours should be.

[ return of the tiny dave smirk. ] This song is the shit. What'd your mom hate on Snoop for?

[ he'll send it to her later, along with any other song he played. ]

My song should be a symphony? That sounds complicated...

[She likes his smirk, it suits him.]

Well swearing, content, and he's not a really nice guy in his songs.

[Her mom likes mommy things which aren't at all vulgar. Things like Cinderella movies and old movies with a lot of dancing.]

Complicated to play with a single instrument, sure.

[ there it goes. it's a fickle thing. ]

Wow. Your mom would not fucking like me.

[ swearing? check. content? check by way of inappropriate rambling. nice guy? he's kind of a prick sometimes but not check. 2/3. ]

[Airy laughs and then shakes her head.]

You don't know that. Though you might like her. I'm pretty sure she can do anything. She's a software engineer and works from home.

I'm not as smart as she is.

[She doesn't understand most of what her mom does.]

So I'm complicated? [Maybe this song metaphor wasn't a good idea because Airy isn't sure what Dave means.]

I'd probably like her. I haven't met a mom I haven't liked. [ or thought wasn't hot... ] That's neat. My mom's totally a scientist.

[ he shrugs. sinking a little bit lower into the chair, lounging in it. ]

What? No, like. I mean- [ how does he phrase this ] Harmonious.

Harmonious is a very pretty word.

[Airy looks just like her mom, only younger.]

A scientist? What sort of science did she specialize in?

Yep.

[ get it, airy? you're pretty. ]

I don't know. I only got one convo outta her after we met. All science? She got the science genes. Rose's mom was an astronomer, I think. Probably an astronomer. Let's go with that.

[Airy doesn't get it and moves on. Her brows furrow in confusion.]

One conversation with your mom? Who's Rose?

[So far Dave's mentioned Jade and John to her but it's hard to keep track.]

Yeah. Well. Okay. She's not really my mom mom in the proper definition of mom. We're totally related but she didn't raise anyone or actually have kids or anything and we're the same fucking age because shenanigans so it's kind of messed up to call her that but she said it was fine. I only spoke to her for twenty-two minutes and thirteen seconds. The actual mom I've never met. [ muttering quietly to himself again ] Wow. That sounds depressing when it's said like that.

[ crosses his arms again, picking at the fabric on his sleeves ]

Rose is my sister. Twin. Sharer of all DNA slash good looks. You'd like her. She's the one with the prose-y talents.

Edited 2016-05-02 02:58 (UTC)

[It does sound depressing but Airy keeps smiling. She doesn't claim to understand time stuff.]

Rose is a pretty name. I bet she's awesome and really pretty. I didn't know you had a twin.

[She remembers them talking about that, and honestly she wishes she could met Rose. They'd totally be friends.]

You're basing her prettiness on how fucking gorgeous I am, aren't you? Damn right, I'm really pretty. I'd be a hot chick. [ did he just call his sister hot again? fuck. whatever. he'd bat his eyelashes if she could see him doing it. ]

Yep. Twin. Made at the same time using the same goop from the same people. [ by john?? it's easier to never try and explain his birth. ]

[Airy laughs.]

I was... I hope that's okay.

[Dave is the sort of weird that Airy can't completely understand but she doesn't hate it. It surprises her considering how much she'd try to be completely normal.]

Any more songs you want to listen too?

[She yawns but tries to ignore it.]
