Doc

If misery truly loved company then John would have been happy to see the Doctor -- or even really be aware that he was there. Apparently this was the exception (or company, or misery) that made the rule, because his response to opening his eyes and seeing the doctor's face above him was to groan, deeply and with feeling.

"Anyone die yet?" he asked, and yeah he was really worried about the apparent plague that had stricken the town. His voice sounded rougher than usual and he was short of breath as hell because a damaged throat, plus a red and swollen throat with inflammed tonsils, tended to make things a bit... wheezy, as well as ragged.
