an excuse to use his one sad icon aka Hospital recovery

[glitchinthesystem]

WHO:Glitch + you, probably just cr though
WHERE: De Chima Hospital
WHEN: A week to two weeks depending on healing after swear in
WHAT: Glitch's recovering from gassing/injuries. Fun times.
WARNINGS: Hallucination leftovers and general mopey behaviour.

[ Glitch had been rendered unconscious during his own tiny rampage of fear gassing at the swear in. For the first two days, the doctors advise against visitors due to Glitch still not having all of the drug out of his system. He lashed out at several nurses to the point they had to strap a nullifier on him so he wouldn't go attempting to electrocute them again.

Day three and onwards however? Glitch is faring better. Physically, anyways. He can have visitors now, but, during some of his episodes now he requires to have a blindfold on hand. For the off chance the hallucinations spike again. On the day of his beginning lucidity he sends out a mass text to his friends (yes, surprisingly he has those) where he is.

Entering the room, Glitch looks even skinnier than he usually does. Face sickly and sweaty and his eyes show signs of not sleeping well. He faces the window not paying much attention to his surroundings looking hollow and dead eyed. The things he saw still stick to his brain like some kind of leech, draining away at any of his energy. The things he did still are a blur to him.

Maybe talking would help. ]

[ And he just jumps a bit because Tachikoma this is not how you greet someone who was suffering hallucinations. ]

Fuck, where the hell did you come from!?

[ Okay, now looking to the present, back to the girl and back to the present. ]

You...got me a gift? [ Robots are capable of that? He's just cautiously take it and rolls it in his hand. ]

[cartesianspidertank]

From the door! And yes!! Purchasing material goods and presenting them to others is a rather straightforward action and well within my capabilities!

[glitchinthesystem]

[ There's a bit of a low humming noise coming from him, side glancing to her as he squeezes the gift. There's an old part of him t hat says do not trust the robot child.

However, a robot did kind of save him Hiro's head.

He's conflicted. ]

Why? [ He's not being very specific, not that he's really thinking much on it. His brain is still addled. ]

[cartesianspidertank]

Because you are in the hospital after an injury, a combination of events that is highly likely to result in a diminished emotional state, for which displays of affection have been proven to be an effective deterrent!!

Do you like it??

[glitchinthesystem]

Okay, I get that, but why are you? We're not even friends.

[ He's holding off on how he likes this thing first. ]

[cartesianspidertank]

Not from lack of trying!!!

[glitchinthesystem]

Yeah, but, why still? You know I don't like robots.

[ Or...sort of use to not like them.

Opinions are slowly changing. But, he's not gonna admit it. ]

[cartesianspidertank]

Well I can't change your mind if I don't keep trying, right?

[glitchinthesystem]

[ There's just a long, uncomfortable stare.

What's with this girl? Why is she eager? ]

Guh...why are you being reasonable? Robots were never reasonable.

[cartesianspidertank]

[ Okay. Sounds fake, but okay. ]

Well why are you being so unreasonable? Humans are never unreasonable!!

[glitchinthesystem]

I-

I'm not gonna answer that.

[ He's going to look at the plush toy again. ]

...Thanks

[cartesianspidertank]

You're welcome! I hope for your speedy recovery!

[ She wheels around and starts to clomp out of the room. ]
