14: Operation (Open Action, over several days/weeks)

[enchantressofore]

WHO: Chopper Tony Tony (tonytonychopper), Trafalgar Law (getaroom), Adela (enchantressofore), and OPEN
WHEN: Pre-Op, Surgery - August 22nd. Post-Op, Recovery - August 22nd-29th. Aftermath - August 30th onward.
WHERE: Pre-Op, Surgery, Post-Op - Genessia Hospital. Aftermath - EVERYWHERE
WHAT: Thanks to the arrival of a surgeon who makes this procedure a heck of a lot easier, surgery date has been moved up and a certain red head is going to walk on two legs once more!
NOTES: Pre-Op is closed to familiar CR only. People Adela has met more than twice will likely be contacted over it, though if you're not sure feel free to ask me over plurk or private message. Post-op is more open as it's more reasonable that people who know her might have heard through word of mouth via other close CR of hers. Aftermath is open to outright everyone. No warnings save for possible potty-mouth, will change as needed.

"I know he is... And I know he is capable of that," She tried to smile for him, really, but it was still strained and she couldn't help feeling her nerves bothering at her once more.

Instead she looked up to the ceiling, sighing and squeezing his hand because she did appreciate him being there and his presence was a comfort, "It... It feels hard to believe that it is happening so soon. That we have truly gotten this far."

[justicereigns]

"It's okay," Smoker gives her another reassuring grin. "You should be happy." Only maybe she was worried about being happy because that could lead to disappoint. Hm.

"Want to play a word game? To take your mind off it?" He gently squeezed her hand back.

[enchantressofore]

Well, it was more that she was certain she wouldn't know what to do with herself after it was said and done, at least not beyond working on the new motorcycle for Law. When Smoker tried to get her attention again she met his eye though, taking a moment before nodding.

"How does one play it?"

[justicereigns]

"Well, there's a couple," Smoker rubs the back of his neck with his free gloved hand. "One you just say the first word the comes to mind in response to another and that goes until one of you accidentally repeats. Or if you want to keep going then the other person gets a point. And another involves using the alphabet for names and concepts, but that might get tricky since it involves locations that we might not be able to recognize for each other. Oh, and there's twenty questions, and I-Spy."

[enchantressofore]

"... Perhaps twenty questions would be the best choice for now. Would you like to start or should I?"

[justicereigns]

"Uh, you can if you have something in mind already, otherwise I can try to think of one?" a head tilt.

[enchantressofore]

She took a few moments, closing her eyes before looking to Smoker again and nodding, "I have something in mind."

It shouldn't be too hard to him, but it'd be interesting to see if Smoker would get it or not.

[justicereigns]

"Is it a person?"

[enchantressofore]

"It is not."

[justicereigns]

"An object?"

[enchantressofore]

Adela paused, frowning at the bed before shaking her head, "I would have a hard time classifying it as an object... So no."

[justicereigns]

"Idea...l?" Smoker rubs his chin in thought.

If she says yes though, the first word out of his mouth is going to be JUSTICE.

Just so you know.

[enchantressofore]

"No, it is not an ideal."

She couldn't help feeling just a little amused then, wondering if Smoker really will get it or not. She didn't think he'd have such a hard time with it!

[justicereigns]

He hums quietly. "An ethereal element? For example, though not specifically: Snow, ice, and fire."

[enchantressofore]

Adela had to think for a moment or two before answering Smoker, "It is related to an ethereal element by that definition."
