Who: Corinth and Anders
What: Near heart attack for Anders
Where: Corinth's place.

Anders was still pretty concerned about Corinth. He was feeling better after talking to Micheal, even a little bit. He headed over to Corinth's apartment to talk to her about it all. Corinth had been so close to completely burned out, and Anders hoped to find her at home.

He knocked on the apartment door and didn't get an answer. Corinth was due home half an hour ago, so she should be there. He turned the doorknob and found the door unlocked. He pushed it open, looking in the door, "Corinth? Are you home?" He walked in and saw her lying on the couch. "Oh, sorry, I th..."

Anders stopped. She wasn't moving. Her eyes were open and she was just staring into space. He felt his mouth go dry as he ran over to her. His training took over and he automatically checked for pulse and breath. He found neither and she was cold. He looked her over. He couldn't see any obvious wounds and while people tended to think poison was clean, it generally wasn't. Though she had access to a hospital. She could have found something.

His next instinct was to send a shock to her heart. He put his hand over her breast as he summoned the magic.

	He put an arm around her. "Disorder is my middle name, or it would be if I had a middle name. I don't tend to listen well to rules." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"That's a luxury you humans have. Angels don't really have free will. Our options are very limited. Even moreso here, apparently." She wished Eli were here. He was the one that initially made her an angel, if an imperfect one. But since Eli wasn't exactly the most reliable archangel, even if he were here she probably wouldn't be working directly under him. Eli typically loaned out his servitors, and she may have ended up in the same position.

"Which is why I asked Micheal for help, not you." He knew it wasn't the best answer. It was weird to him. She seemed like she had free will, but it was hard to say, he hadn't really thought about it.

"Who does? I never know what I'm doing, I'm just good at pretending. I don't know a lot about angels and what they can and can't do, but you're amazing. And you deserve something better than this."

	Corinth smiled a bit when Anders admitted he was just good at pretending. "Thank you," she said softly. She still wasn't sure how much good it would do, but it was something. She closed her eyes, taking a deep breath. "I've only got a little while before my next shift." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You should take a break. I'm pretty sure even angels aren't meant to work this hard." She looked so tired and she had just gotten back from a shift. He knew it was a 'bad' thing, but he let a little bit of magic out through the hand around her, just making her a little drowsy. It should be subtle enough that she didn't notice.

	Angels didn't need to sleep.. But they also didn't need coffee, and Corey's stance on that was pretty obvious. She yawned, nestling against his side. Sleep was good. "You're probably right.." she said, eyes still closed. She should call in... But her phone was way over on the table. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Anders smiled down at her. He hadn't meant for her to pass out immediately, but whatever was best for her. He reached forward, doing his best to not move her and grabbed her phone. "You want to call, or should I?" She might already be asleep, and if that was the case he'd just call in for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Corinth murmured something into his chest, but it was completely unintelligible. The chances that she could actually explain the situation on the phone looked incredibly slim. She managed to unhook the namebadge from her shirt and hand it to him, so he would know who to mention. 'Corinth' would probably confuse them, since John Corinth had just gotten off his shift. Her name badge read 'Corey Barnes'.

	Anders took the badge and found the number in her contacts, calling in for her. After he hung up he moved around a bit to get more comfortable. He wasn't exactly tired, but he didn't really want to wake her up either. He got his own phone out to text home that he would be late. They wouldn't mind. (Reply to this) (Parent)
