DT7: Third Wheel

by **Isabel Galen** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 2:43 am

"Dammit, I just can't get it." Isabel said, taking a step back from Will, still looking shaky.

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 2:49 am

"Maybe because he's technically not alive right now?" she wonders, glancing at the scanner to see if it picked anything up during the attempt.

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 3:01 am

It sure did. Boy, did it ever.

The thing had gone HAYWIRE as Izzy had tried to heal Will--the cracks, apparently not visible to the naked eye, but visible to the scanner, had been vanishing and reforming on microscopic levels!

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 3:05 am

"This is weird... It's like the cracks have been reforming as you healed them."

by **Isabel Galen** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 2:16 pm

"So I was doing something...." Isabel said "That makes sense, with how it felt while I was trying to do it."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 3:06 pm

"Weird---maybe my body thinks this is the 'natural' state,so there's nothing to heal?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 3:36 pm

"Or when you're not 'alive' there's no normal state to be healed to."

by **Isabel Galen** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 3:41 pm

"That makes sense." Isabel said."That would explain why I can't heal inanimate things."

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 3:43 pm

"I wonder what'd happen with wood..."

by **Isabel Galen** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 4:27 pm

"Only one way to find out."

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 6:03 pm

"Maybe something a little fancier, to boot..."

And with that, Will shifted and twisted away, growing taller and spreading out...into an impressive looking tree.

With a significant gash down it.

by **Isabel Galen** » Tue Jun 28, 2011 9:52 pm

Isabel put her hands onto the tree, trying to heal him. Like before, she couldn't quite reach the injury, but she was closer than she had been. Almost. Just a little bit more and........

she fell to the ground, in a heap.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 1:59 am

"Isabel! Are you okay?" she asks (carefully) dropping the scanner as she kneels down next to her.

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 12:34 pm

Isabel didn't respond, although if Sara checked, her breathing and heart rate seemed normal.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 12:57 pm

"Oh crap, oh crap... Isabel, can you hear me? Wake up!"

"Computer, I need, like, a wet cloth or something..." Which, after the DR generated it, she proceeds to wring out over Isabel's head.

by **Isabel Galen** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 5:22 pm

After a moment, Isabel's eyes fluttered open "What happened?" she asked.

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Jun 30, 2011 2:11 am

"No clue... You were trying to heal him and you just passed out all of a sudden."

by **Isabel Galen** » Thu Jun 30, 2011 2:13 am

"Ugh." Isabel said "That happened last time too."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Jun 30, 2011 2:31 am

"Maybe you should take it easy."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jun 30, 2011 6:58 am

The tree was bending over her, concerned, as well.

That's a little weird, isn't it?

by **Isabel Galen** » Thu Jun 30, 2011 5:55 pm

"Yeah, I think we've proven I can only heal Will when he's a vertebrate."

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 2:01 am

She nods and picks up the scanner again.

"Can you shift that away yourself, Will?"

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 5:57 am

"Sure thing..."

And then....well, not much. The gash slowly--very slowly--began to close.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 12:56 pm

"Huh... That's taking a lot longer than usual..." she mumbles, holding up the scanner to see if anything's different.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 1:04 pm

The cells had some sort of...charge or something in them,

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 1:40 pm

"That's weird... The scanner's showing something but I have no clue what it is."

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 2:43 pm

"Don't look at me," Will said, sort of shrugging the branches.

by **Isabel Galen** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 4:38 pm

"Did I hurt him?" Isabel asked, concern cutting through her headache and disorientation.

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 5:31 pm

"I have no idea. Does it feel any harder to heal yourself, Will?"

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 6:15 pm

"Um....no, it doesn't FEEL any harder...just, uh...it's not....quite doing it..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 6:52 pm

"Hmm... Maybe it'll make more sense once we get this data evaluated..."

by **Isabel Galen** » Sat Jul 02, 2011 12:45 am

"I hope so." Isabel said, not sounding happy about how things had gone.

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Jul 02, 2011 11:56 am

"It's all right, it's all good..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Jul 02, 2011 3:38 pm

"And we got a bunch of data out of it, so it's not like it was a waste. Do you two want to call it a day for now or...?"

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Jul 02, 2011 3:39 pm

"We could--or if you wanted to get more data on stuff, I can stand up, too. See what wear and tear does, or whatever? Or---hey, you're the scientist, I dunno," the tree chuckled.

by **Sara Stanton** » Sat Jul 02, 2011 4:35 pm

"Well if you're up for it..."

by **Will Stanton** » Sat Jul 02, 2011 4:49 pm

"I'm up for anything you want to do---if Izzy's feeling alright, that is.

I mean, even without the power, help is always nice," the tree...sorta smiled.

by **Isabel Galen** » Sun Jul 03, 2011 1:06 am

"I'm feeling a lot better already." Isabel said.

by **Will Stanton** » Sun Jul 03, 2011 1:48 am

"Fades quickly, does it?"

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 1:19 am

"Yeah, I start feeling better pretty quickly." Isabel said.
