Setting Up - Act III
Where, Magnen faces the full consequences of her actions, and interacts with several people while in the hospital (and several people pass through OOC, and Josh plays a game for a bit)....
[1:33 AM]
Officer Steve wakes up[1:33 AM]
Officer Steve calls for a doctor[1:33 AM]
Doctor Doram: OOC: FINALLY a role, I'm perfect for...[1:34 AM]
Magnen: (I was just thinking that)[1:34 AM]
Doctor Doram pulls the curtain aside.[1:34 AM]
Doctor Doram: Ok, let's see.
[1:34 AM]
Venexis: Heh[1:34 AM]
Doctor Doram picks up Steve's chart from the foot of the bed.[1:35 AM]
Doctor Doram: Well, your legs were broken, but I'm not seeing any nerve damage.
[1:36 AM]
Officer Steve: horay!
[1:36 AM]
Officer Steve: so how long will I be in for doctor?
[1:36 AM]
Doctor Doram: Those are compound fractures, though. It's going to take a while to heal.
[1:36 AM]
Doctor Doram: I'd say at least six months.
[1:37 AM]
Doctor Doram: Then the next part will be up to you.
[1:37 AM]
Venexis: (sounds like the force could use a new recuit after all <3)[1:37 AM]
Magnen regains conciousness[1:37 AM]
Officer Steve: awwwww
[1:37 AM]
Doctor Doram: That's going to be at least a year of physical therapy.
[1:37 AM]
Officer Steve: a year?
[1:37 AM]
Magnen finds right arm in a cast and left arm with an IV[1:37 AM]
Doctor Doram: If you want to walk again, you better take this process seriously.
[1:37 AM]
Officer Steve: I can't stay here that long! I need to do police stuff!
[1:37 AM]
Venexis: (you actually lose a ♥♥♥♥ ton of muscle mass and stuff in casts)[1:38 AM]
Officer Steve sighs[1:38 AM]
Venexis: (if you're not careful you can immediately break something again)[1:38 AM]
Doctor Doram: Well, you better be glad you are alive. Car crashes kill hundreds of people every year, and the police are involved in many of those crashes.
[1:39 AM]
Officer Steve: I guess it was my own fault anyway
[1:39 AM]
Officer Steve: I've gotta start being less reckless
[1:39 AM]
Doctor Doram nods sagely. He also notices Magnen stirring.[1:39 AM]
Doctor Doram turns back to Steve.[1:40 AM]
Doctor Doram: You're gonna be tied up here for a while. Better get used to it.
[1:40 AM]
Officer Steve
[1:40 AM]
Doctor Doram puts Steve's chart back at the foot of his bed.[1:40 AM]
Officer Steve: Can you let officer Dave know?
[1:40 AM]
Doctor Doram: THAT, I can do.
[1:41 AM]
Officer Steve: also, ask him to bring me some of those donuts he was telling me about
[1:41 AM]
Doctor Doram: Get some rest, officer. You've earned it.
[1:41 AM]
Officer Steve tries to go to sleep[1:41 AM]
Doctor Doram pulls the curtain back around Steve, and heads over to Magnen's bed.[1:41 AM]
Magnen: Oh crap-
[1:41 AM]
Doctor Doram: You awake, young lady?
[1:41 AM]
Doctor Doram picks up Magnen's chart.[1:42 AM]
Magnen hugs and buries face in pillow[1:42 AM]
Doctor Doram: You. Are in a lot of trouble.
[1:42 AM]
Doctor Doram flips through a few pages.[1:43 AM]
Officer Steve snores quietly[1:43 AM]
Doctor Doram: Although, your injuries aren't as bad as the Officer that crashed into you.
[1:43 AM]
Magnen: I was gonna return that car, I swear...
[1:43 AM]
Doctor Doram: Save it for court, young lady, my job is to get you healthy, and that's all.(edited)
[1:44 AM]
Magnen: 
[1:44 AM]
Doctor Doram puts the chart down, and frowns as he looks Magnen over for a moment.[1:44 AM]
Magnen hangs head in shame[1:45 AM]
Doctor Doram: You've broken your arm, and injured your back. You've also lost a lot of blood.
[1:45 AM]
Officer Steve:(protip: donate blood)[1:46 AM]
Doctor Doram: You may also have a mild concussion, but there is no good test for that other than observation.
[1:46 AM]
Venexis: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/western-university-researchers-develop-concussion-blood-test/article33503930/ relevant :OOO
The Globe and Mail
Western University researchers develop concussion blood test wit...
The test comes with a 90-per-cent accuracy rate, a previously unheard count in the medical community working to unlock the mysteries of the brain[1:47 AM]
Magnen mutters something about car keys into pillow[1:47 AM]
Doctor Doram: Thankfully, there's a new test we can try.
(Thanks Ven)[1:47 AM]
Venexis: lmao[1:47 AM]
Venexis: Science is wild[1:48 AM]
Doctor Doram: And the stitches in your forehead seem to be holding well.
[1:49 AM]
Doctor Doram: We're going to hold you for a couple of days for observation, but we're going to have to turn you over to the prison system for the rest of your treatment.
[1:49 AM]
Doctor Doram: I hear Shadowsquid Penitentiary has excellent medical facilities.
[1:50 AM]
Magnen: I don't wanna gooooo
[1:51 AM]
Doctor Doram: Well, you should have thought of that before you stole a cop car, and went on a destructive joy ride across the city.
[1:51 AM]
Doctor Doram: Do you have any family?
[1:52 AM]
Doctor Doram crosses his arms over his chest.[1:52 AM]
Magnen hugs knees a bit[1:52 AM]
Magnen: ...No sir.
[1:53 AM]
Officer Steve dreams about green men going to space[1:53 AM]
Doctor Doram: Nobody at all? No parents, grandparents? Where do you live?
[1:53 AM]
Magnen: ... not that I know of
[1:54 AM]
Magnen: been on my own for a while now
[1:55 AM]
Doctor Doram frowns, but softens a bit.[1:55 AM]
Doctor Doram puts his arm on the side of the bed.[1:55 AM]
Doctor Doram: Well, these are serious things you've just done.
[1:56 AM]
Doctor Doram: I'm not sure exactly what will happen, but with an officer injured, they are going to be especially harsh.
[1:56 AM]
Doctor Doram: You are likely going to be tried as an adult, and with nobody to turn to, you will likely see hard time.
[1:57 AM] TheMMMification:
OOC: How come this RP is in the ooc channel?(edited)[1:57 AM]
Magnen: (cuz it started here and we didn't move?)[1:57 AM]
Doctor Doram: OOC We were talking about setting things up, and then it got out of control.(edited)[1:59 AM]
Magnen Silently laments choices[1:59 AM]
Doctor Doram uses a crooked finger to gently lift Magnen's chin up.[1:59 AM]
Doctor Doram: Don't get too discouraged, little one. I will see what I can do.
[2:00 AM]
Doctor Doram turns and pulls the curtain back around Magnen.[2:00 AM]
Doctor Doram leaves the room.[2:01 AM]
Doctor Doram: OOC: This would be a good time for you to try to talk to the cop.[2:02 AM]
Magnen shakily stands up[2:03 AM]
Several alarms go off as the bed registers the weight gone.[2:03 AM]
Magnen: Ah-
[2:03 AM]
Magnen sits back down[2:03 AM]
The alarms go quiet again.[2:04 AM]
Magnen calls out to the cop[2:04 AM]
Magnen: ...Sir?
[2:05 AM]
The producer asks where @joshio01 's actor is.
[2:06 AM]
Magnen: (looks like he might be afk)[2:07 AM]
Officer Steve stirs, having been slightly awakened by the alarms.[2:07 AM]
Officer Steve: What do you want?
[2:07 AM]
Magnen: I... I just wanted to apologize.
[2:07 AM]
Magnen: I'm sorry about your legs.
[2:08 AM]
Officer Steve: You're sorry? You were taunting us and driving back and forth nearby until I got another car to chase you down.
[2:09 AM]
Magnen: ... I didn't mean to go so far...
[2:10 AM]
Officer Steve tries to shift his weight, but it only increases the pain in his legs. He whines lightly before shifting back.[2:10 AM]
Magnen Sighs.[2:10 AM]
Officer Steve: Right, kid.
[2:10 AM]
Magnen: I was just gonna drive it to the donut shop and ditch it.
[2:11 AM]
Magnen: But I saw your partner and I panicked and started hightailing it.
[2:11 AM]
Officer Steve: Typical.
[2:11 AM]
Officer Steve harumphs, and tries to turn away.[2:12 AM]
Magnen breathes slightly heavily.[2:12 AM]
Officer Steve frowns at the sound of Magnen having trouble breathing, and turns back.[2:13 AM]
Officer Steve: You ok, kid?
[2:13 AM]
Magnen: I'm not asking you to lower the sentence, just-
[2:13 AM]
Magnen coughs[2:14 AM]
Officer Steve: Look, that's not up to me. I'm just a cop. I bring 'em in, and the lawyers take care of the rest. You should probably talk to whoever they give you for council about all that stuff.
[2:15 AM]
Magnen: Haaah
[2:15 AM]
Magnen: I'm already doomed there-
[2:15 AM]
Magnen coughs again[2:15 AM]
Officer Steve: You got any family, kid?
[2:16 AM]
Magnen: No sir.
[2:16 AM]
Officer Steve frowns deeply.[2:16 AM]
Officer Steve: Homeless, eh.
[2:16 AM]
Officer Steve juts his head towards the ceiling briefly, and looks away for a moment.[2:16 AM]
Officer Steve: This freakin' world.
[2:17 AM]
Officer Steve sighs.[2:17 AM]
Officer Steve: Look, kid. This is gonna suck for ya, but you're young, and clearly without any other guidance. The judge MIGHT go easy on ya.
[2:17 AM]
Officer Steve looks very tired.[2:18 AM]
Officer Steve: I'll see if they'll listen to my input on it at all.
[2:18 AM]
Magnen: I'm sorry.
[2:19 AM]
Officer Steve: I think you might really be.
[2:19 AM]
Officer Steve: It probably doesn't count for much, but I guess I can forgive ya.
[2:19 AM]
Officer Steve settles back a bit, and falls quickly back asleep.[2:20 AM]
Attorney Lisa peeks around the curtain at Magnen.[2:20 AM]
Attorney Lisa: You awake?
[2:20 AM]
Magnen Yawns and stretches a bit.[2:21 AM]
Magnen: Yes ma'am.
[2:21 AM]
Attorney Lisa puts some files in her hands down on the bedstand, and reaches a hand out.[2:21 AM]
Attorney Lisa: I'm Lisa, your attorney.
[2:21 AM]
Magnen: shakes hand[2:22 AM]
Attorney Lisa smiles weakly.[2:22 AM]
Attorney Lisa brushes some hair out of her eyes.[2:22 AM]
Attorney Lisa: I've been appointed by the court to represent you.
[2:22 AM]
Attorney Lisa: You are in a LOT of trouble.
[2:23 AM]
Attorney Lisa sits down on the chair by the window, and angles so that it faces the hospital bed.[2:23 AM]
Attorney Lisa picks up the files, and starts flipping through a few pages.[2:23 AM]
Magnen twiddles thumbs nervously[2:24 AM]
Attorney Lisa: Several cameras caught you as you went through the city, and you caused an accident that put a Police Officer in the hospital.
[2:24 AM]
Attorney Lisa: His family is VERY mad, as is the rest of the police force.
[2:24 AM]
Officer Steve: I appear to have forgotten that parachutes do not work on the moon[2:25 AM]
Magnen: (nice job)[2:25 AM]
Officer Steve stretches arms[2:25 AM]
Magnen: (also hope you caught up, Doram filled in for you earlier)[2:25 AM]
Officer Steve: gooooood morning hospital
[2:26 AM]
Officer Steve: what are you guys doing now?
[2:26 AM]
Attorney Lisa rests the files on her lap, and brushes a wisp of hair out of her eyes again as she looks up.[2:26 AM]
Attorney Lisa: I'm consulting with my client, officer. I'll try to be as quiet as I can.
[2:26 AM]
Officer Steve: great
[2:27 AM]
Officer Steve: I go into space for 3 MONTHS and you guys replace me
[2:27 AM]
Attorney Lisa raises an eyebrow.[2:27 AM]
Officer Steve: (a fast forward button is very helpful during space travel)[2:28 AM]
Attorney Lisa: OOC: True.[2:28 AM]
Officer Steve: so...time to catch up
