Imagination day 17 ; voice

[stardustofdawn]

[The surgery is complete and a success. He is resting on one of the beds in the medical room on the second floor. There are several layers of gauze wrapped around his head and he wraps himself up with blankets. It's a weird sensation to actually feel something in those sockets, as it has been years, and he realized he has eyes. But he's not ready yet, as he used to the darkness.

It must have been many hours, but he was knocked out. Upon awakening, the unpleasant side-effects of the anesthesia wear off, and he's starts waking up, feeling groggy after sleeping for a long time, that he's too weak to even call out to anyone nearby him, so speaking into the device]

Hello...? I think I'm all right? Is this thing even on? I'm awake. I'm okay, just had a very long sleep and a very long dream. I think all I ever wanted right now is blankets, pillows, and this sweet called ice cream? My head doesn't feel so good.

I'm going to lie down for a little bit.

Comments

[strawberryprotector]

A good idea. I'll be by to check on you in a few minutes now that you've come around from the anesthesia.

[stardustofdawn]

Ichigo, is that you? You mean lying down, right? What kind of medicine is that? Made me feel very sleepy.

[strawberryprotector]

Yep, it's me. And yes, you probably should lie down. The medication, and Glorfindel-san, kept you asleep and dulled the pain of the procedure. I'll be there in a few minutes to check on you.


[ooc: Any complaints about the next tag from Ichi being in person?]

[stardustofdawn]

I understand, so that's how it works. I'm lying down now trying to relax, so I'll wait.

[ooc: Go right ahead and let it be an action tag!]

[strawberryprotector]

Ichigo knocked on the door of the room before opening it, so he wouldn't startle his friend and patient. "I come bearing ice cream. And with a small furry friend, to boot." He came over and took Xingchen's hand to put the ice cream bowl into before lifting Shiro up into the man's lap. "It's my cat, Shiro. Pretty soon, you'll be able to see what he looks like."

[Video-->Action?]

[azrthmtrnznthos]

It's on. I'm coming to check on you.

[Hopefully the voice was familiar--Raven had been one of the people helping heal and pain-block for Xingchen. Even if she'd kept herself in the background.

There's a pause, before she speaks again.]

I'll bring some extra blankets and pillows first.

[stardustofdawn]

Oh, can you hear me? I think your voice is familiar, but I didn't catch your name.

If you can bring that, I really appreciate that. Thank you very much.

Video--->Action

[azrthmtrnznthos]

I'm Raven. You managed to activate the ICP. I'll see you shortly.

[Which is as close to a goodbye as he's likely to get. It would take the walk along the train from supplies to medical, but Raven will knock before entering. Bringing two extra pillows and some extra blankets with her, bundled up in her arms.]

Hello?

[stardustofdawn]

Hello? [With a cheerful upbeat] Hello! Come in, Raven.

[When she notices him, the patient has a blindfold around his head. He may look familiar because they're actually roommates]

Now I think I can hear you clearly. Raven, is it? You're my roommate.

[azrthmtrnznthos]

[He'd looked familiar before, but it had also been in the rush and bustle of surgery. Raven had been more focused on her task at hand then.]

We are, and yes, it is. I have two extra pillows and some extra blankets.

[hotheadwarmheart]

Hey there! So you were the one getting the eye surgery the lady doctor mentioned. And it looks like it went well, so that's great!

Laying down would probably be a good idea, yeah, but so long as the docs don't have any objections, I can definitely swing by with some ice cream.

[stardustofdawn]

[He's lying down as Ichigo ordered to rest off the side-effects of the meds, so closing his eyes and hearing the voice]

Ah, who's that? Lea, is that you? Are you going to bring me ice cream, really? [With a cheerful upbeat] What kind of ice cream?

[hotheadwarmheart]

Yep, it's me.

And I'm bringing you the best kind: sea-salt ice cream. This is a big occasion, so we gotta celebrate.

[stardustofdawn]

Of course it is. I think the surgery is a success.

Sea salt ice cream? I can't wait to try that. You're going to bring it over for me, really?

[hotheadwarmheart]

Yep. Consider it the icing on the cake for getting your vision back. I'll grab the ice cream and be right over, OK?

[Video]

[ayao]

Daozhang Xingchen, what has happened? [Meng Yao has fallen out of touch with...many things. But this is concerning. The man looks like he has been operated on?] I will gladly bring you something sweet.

[stardustofdawn]

[Oh? This voice he doesn't recognize, voice soft, and sleepy]

I have an operation. Eye transplant. Mm, side-effects of anesthesia. So I am very sleepy but hungry. So ice cream is what I want.

[ayao]

...may I ask where the eyes came from? [Does Xingchen know?] What flavor would you prefer?

[stardustofdawn]

I think my nephew Wei Wuxian bought it for me. I'm sure it's perfect. [But he's blind, what does he know, he isn't picky! He just go with it]

[With a cheerful upbeat] Oh whatever you could find! Vanilla, chocolate, or both. Both are good.

[marriedanidiot]

Are you alright, my dear?

[stardustofdawn]

Hello...? Yes, I'm all right and just woke up from a very long dream.

Just a little woozy from the meds, but it does help with the pain.

[marriedanidiot]

"That is well." She sighs, relieved. "If you need any help with the pain, do let us know."

[stardustofdawn]

He also sighed, relieved. "I'm going to lay down and rest for a bit. The medicine will wear off then. But still, you have my thanks for checking up on me."

[only_one_wei]

[Dropping by to check on the uncle!]

"Uncle! You are awake!" Wei Wuxian came into the room with a bound. "How are you feeling? I hear that the operation went well!"

[stardustofdawn]

[He turns to the direction of his nephew, speaking softly in a groggy voice]

I'm awake, I'm awake. Just groggy from the medicine and woke up from a long dream, but I think I'll get better. How about you? Are you all right?
