Summary: Michael's friends and family are in for a surprise when they see him and they may not be happy with each other either.

Michael had a rough night, but he was glad that Pomfrey had been willing to look after him even though he wasn't a student anymore. Obviously it wasn't her job, but he had been in pretty bad shape when he showed up on the grounds and Hagrid had been walking to his cabin when he happened upon Michael crawling from the Forest, shifting from wolf to human and barely still conscious by that point. With his leg then broken and his burned skin infected not to mention the issue with his eye, Michael was not doing that great when Hagrid rushed him to Pomfrey's care. She had not been willing to risk apparating him to St. Mungo's so she coordinated with them and they said that it was best that he stay there overnight and they would help move him when he was more stable.

He would have liked to say that the restitching of his broken leg had been the worst of it, but with infections in his burned skin, that was definitely not it. The burns were not looking well and he had to have loads of disgusting smelling ointments spread all over his burns and Pomfrey had not yet said anything to him about his eye; she said that he was best to talk to someone at St. Mungo's about that, but he knew that she just didn't want to tell him the bad news he already knew.

Terry had already said he'd stop by which Pomfrey might actually welcome seeing as he had Healing experience and Michael was just glad to be able to see everyone again. After spending three days out in the middle of the forest being tortured and barely fed, it was definitely a welcome sight to have a warm bed and familiar walls and faces to see again, even if his own face was not going to be familiar to them.

"That's the professional opinion in a nutshell. Nothing fancy. It would be shite, but I'm not at work right now, so it doesn't quite count. Changed shifts for the likes of you," he said with a playful smile. "If I were you, I'd want to get that eye checked once you get to St. Mungo's though," he added, the smile faltering somewhat when he looked at it once more.

"What you are going to do is take care of yourself, get plenty of rest and do what needs to be done to get well--and don't do anything too stupid. And just not worry about anything else. Even Shiv. Or Ernie for that matter. Have they contacted the DMLE yet?"

"I feel very honoured then," he smiled in return. When Terry mentioned his eye, Michael nodded. Pomfrey wants a specialist to look at it, but I have a feeling it's not going to make a difference. But you never know, I suppose."

Michael gave Terry another nod. "Professor McGonagall contacted the Ministry after they brought me in here. What could I possibly do that's stupid while I'm under hospital arrest?" he asked innocently? Really though, his skin was still healing from the infections and he did not plan to give it a chance to get worse because he wanted to do anything reckless. "I can't help but worry about Shiv though. She was right there and we were almost leaving together and then that was it. It was over; she's still there."

"Well it might," Terry said, doubting his own words somewhat, but occasionally there were miracles to be had. He hoped that would be the case for Michael, at the very least.

"It's not you that they're worried about. If Fenrir and others are out and about closeby then who's to stop them from doing this to others? Or attempting to capture you once more? They'd probably want to question you to see if they can figure out where Fenrir is--just so they can find Shiv." He paused for a moment. "But then again, you do have a knack for getting yourself into trouble, so maybe it would be a good idea to keep an eye on you too," he said with a playful grin.
