Constellation 09

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[Arthur doesn't look to well right now. In fact, he's actually bedridden. He's also supposed to be resting, but well, he's a bit of a workaholic.

So he's chosen a relatively secluded part of the Plane to bring his bed. He's done his best to get dressed properly, and has managed for the most part, except for looking far from his usual composed self. His work is spread out on the bed and he keeps looking between papers, scribbling down notes on another. Every so often he'll turn and cough into a handkerchief, or try to hold back a sneeze. He mostly fails at the latter.

But, despite all this, even a cold can't keep Arthur from his work]

[b'aww, Arthur. Have a Nine, who also looks far from composed, considering his current...attire. And you know, the wounds, which he really ought to see to instead of wandering around the Plane aimlessly. He gives Arthur a concerned look when he spots him though, and walks over to him.] Looks like you could use a Doctor. [winks]

[bad Arthur, working while sick! Handy will now be trying to collect all the papers scattered on your bed and being very strict and things.]

You look like hell. You shouldn't be working in your condition.

{Diva comes to sit on the bed, but she's very quiet! She's just looking at what he's writing, mostly, and seems totally unbothered by the fact he's sick}

[I am obviously evil Have a Bai leaning over you Arthur!] ...You're working?

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[Arthur pauses, mostly due to the Doctor's own state] -I could say the same for you, Doctor.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[That just means that Arthur will be doing his very best to keep him from gathering] It's just a few hours of work. I've been bedridden....

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[Arthur pauses when he finally notices Diva's presence, which admittedly takes him a few moments]

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[Arthur is not yet used to strange people leaning over him, so he jumps a bit] Y-yes, just a bit of work...

[The Doctor decides to pop up over his bed, to look better at the papers in front of Arthur.]

You're going to sneeze all over those equations, you know.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[shrugs, then winces a bit at the movement] I've had worse. You look like you could use a good rest and a cup of tea.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[He attempts a smile, then sneezes] I've had worse, as well. It's just a little cold...

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[Arthur blinks, glancing up at him] I'm trying my best not to.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[chuckles fondly] Which won't get better any faster if you don't take a bit of a break. And all this will still be here when you wake up. [gestures at Arthur's notes] Not to mention, you'll actually be able to concentrate on it after you rest.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

I've rest it enough. ANd there's deadlines, and other work, and lectures....

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

[He nods.] Yes but you're ill. You should probably be napping. Drinking juice, that sort of thing.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[With the slightest pour] I've already rested.

[charmandsmiles.livejournal.com]

[gently] And it'll all still be there for you right where you left it. You've got as long as you need here, remember? Take advantage of it. [and he will be picking up some of those notes, now] Sleep and tea, Doctor's orders.

[salvagestime.livejournal.com]

Are you sure? You don't exactly look rested.

[handysparehand.livejournal.com]

[has collected a few of the papers but not all of them. Holding the ones he's collected in one hand, he stick out his empty hand towards Arthur for Arthur to hand over the rest. He gives Arthur his sternest look]

Arthur.

{...oh arthur}

You don't need to stop just because I'm here.

[humanwaterdemon.livejournal.com]

[Aw, stuttering, the embressment value is strong in this one] aw, how lovely... What sort of work then? It must be very important if you're so ill?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

[hovering over his shoulder]

Humans are so disgusting.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[Arthur still hesitates] I can rest later, you know. There'll be plenty of time for that.....

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

[He ends up holding them closer] Doctor....

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. I wasn't awawre of your presence until now.
