Oh thank god.

They can go to a hospital to get the two way transfusion going now - Lorica won't get more blood but the fluid guiding will hopefully help.

Permalink

Lorica cooperates perfectly nicely with the two-way transfusion machine and peers at it curiously. She does occasionally glance nervously at Lia to make sure she is having a good enough time with this.

Permalink

Lucien waits an hour for the guiding to get Lorica's backlash as far as down as it can go with the blood transfusion.

Permalink

She sits there looking at her phone the whole time. Occasionally frowns when she passes donation requests but she's all out of money.

Permalink

Lucien aks her for her phone once he notices what she's looking at on it.

Permalink

Oh sure he can have it.

Permalink

Oh good. He would probably have insisted on taking it from her eventually but this way is so so much nicer.

Permalink

 

Now she's just kind of sitting around bored.

Permalink

"You want a pen and paper?"

Permalink

"Journaling?"

Permalink

"Oh, I can't do that because I'd let you look at it if you asked so it won't work."

Permalink

"I won't ask - does that fix the issue?"

Permalink

"Okay." Lucien can go back to waiting for the remaining fifteen minutes of the hour.

Permalink

Lia texts him before the hour is up.

starting to build up backlash

think that Lorica is just giving me back my own blood

or my healing isnt keeping up with the transfusion 

can still keep goin if its important though

Permalink

Sigh, its close to maxed out impact I think anyways. If you can stick around while Lorica and I chat about plans that'd be good but don't need more of this if it's not going to be a long term option. Also I might have trouble finding time to guide you if you want more than skin contact.

nw i can get a hookup

"Hey Lorica, how are you doing?"

Permalink

"That's good to hear - I think this is as low as we're going to get your backlash using this method so I wanted to talk about how we should handle the rest of your awakening while you are... as sane as you are going to get under the circumstances."

Permalink

"Well, how do you want to do it?"

Permalink

Sigh. 

"I'm not sure - can you understand why I'm concerned about you using your power?"

Permalink

"...I wasn't going to go to the hot world without the suit. I wouldn't be able to bring anything back that way."

Permalink

"I'm glad you can notice that that's what I was worried about - I'm worried that you won't think of a risk like that next time or you'll go exploring without a suit or something like that."
