"And we might want to come up with a plan that scales."

Permalink

"We are kinda lacking in terms of bodies that can heal people, so I could, like, let some blood into some containers but then we have an issue of transportation… So, yeah, planning is probably a good idea." He shrugs and does his seatbelt up. "Right now we should possibly get back, though, it's getting a bit late."

Permalink

"Is it... bad that it's late? Given your vampireness?"

Seatbelt!

Permalink

"… No but you all presumably need to sleep? If you'd rather I can go drive other places and we can work all night or something."

Permalink

"– I mean, you'd literally be saving lives. So we should maybe do that."

Permalink

"We shouldn't push ourselves so far we literally cannot cope but yes it sounds like a worthwhile endeavor. Also we had a couple of tests to run."

Permalink

"We did," agrees Theo. "Should we go do another hospital and then go do the tests?"

Permalink

"Sounds good."

Permalink

He gets out his phone and finds directions to the other hospital and starts driving.

Permalink

And Sadde looks at him from the corner of his eye every now and then and bites his lips.

Permalink

Theo carefully keeps his eyes on the road.

Permalink

Poor Sadde will pine quietly.

The next hospital takes about half an hour to get to. "I will go scout again, then, and be back once I know what it's like?"

Permalink

"I'm honestly thinking we might be superfluous."

Permalink

"You might be," he agrees, "but since I'm going to be running around holding my breath and using echolocation for the first bit, hopefully meaning I don't lose focus, then running around with one of you afterwards while I'm not, you might be of some help or at least reduce the worst-case scenario."

Permalink

"Yeah, probably."

Permalink

"Back in a bit."

Off he goes.

Permalink

This hospital has no conveniently open emergency exits.

Permalink

How much security is there at – any of the doors? He's only going to start echolocating once he's inside and can actually do it effectively.

Permalink

There is a nonzero amount of security.

The employees' door is, however, a large set of double doors that opens on card swipes. Perhaps he could jump in while someone else was walking in or out...?

Permalink

If anyone seems like they're walking in or out, sure, he could. He's conveniently fast and nimble, how… convenient.

Permalink

Isn't it just? And look there's a couple of nurses.

Permalink

– And he's in, and he's looking what's around, and then provided it's all safe he is shutting his eyes and paying careful attention to his surroundings and he already stopped breathing earlier.

It continues to be uncomfortable. But bearable.

Permalink

This hospital is larger and more spacious and has more blood banks and a larger ICU.

Permalink

And now he knows where everything is and he can go back to near that employee door and pay attention for when someone's leaving and then follow them out!
