this is all we got and then it's gone;

[atrophied]

Who: The school nurse and his beloved patients
What: what do you think
When: Throughout the week. open night or day.
Where: the hospital wing
Rating: it's House.

[ the school nurse naps on one of the beds, a book open over his face. even here he refuses to wear anything marking his status so in jeans and sneakers he stays. the last person to have commented on his attire had ended up with enlarged purple ears. as he was also the only one with the antidote, he had not had to field any more questions after that.

numerous rumors abound regarding experiments, but they are only rumors. it is also a well-known fact he keeps the entire hospital wing booby-trapped; wander somewhere you shouldn't and you may find yourself with an overnight stay covered in painful boils.

but all jerkass clouds have a silver lining: he can be trusted not to rat the students out to the higher-ups. usually. ]

Like anyone could get close enough to do it.

[ he finally moves the book aside. s'up. ]

I still don't have a cure for the blues, sorry.

[originalcopy]

I don't know man, you're just laying there under a book. Seems like anyone could sneak up on you.

[He shrugs]

Meh, Not like I could really take it if you had it.

[atrophied]

And scare me like you did?

[originalcopy]

Hey, I'm a ghost... I have to at least give it a try every once in a while.

Plus, if I ever did manage to scare you I'd get some pretty sweet bragging rights.

[atrophied]

Goals even after life?

[originalcopy]

Yeah, why not? Pretty boring existence otherwise don't you think?

[atrophied]

Existence is boring.

[amused snort]

You should try it from this end. At least you still have all the good stuff.

[atrophied]

I did. Except I managed to come back.

[originalcopy]

Guess you didn't try hard enough... or maybe you changed your mind.

I didn't really get that option.

[atrophied]

Medicine advances a lot.

[originalcopy]

Can it fix a fist sized hole in your chest yet?

[atrophied]

If you're very lucky.

[originalcopy]

[He unfolds his arms to show the hole that goes strait through him.]

Guess I just wasn't that lucky.

[atrophied]

Not with what's available here.

[ modern medicine >>>>>>>>>>>> bullshit magic. ]

[originalcopy]

Story of my life.

[atrophied]

Isn't it story of your unlife now?

[originalcopy]

Oh, heh... yeah I guess it is.
