Who: Logan, Dani
What: Logan visits Dani to cheer her up.
When: During the 'no mouth/silence' plot.
Where: Irvine General.
Ratings/Warnings: PG-13 for no mouth.
Status: Complete!
The day was shaping up to really, really suck, though Dani had a hard time focusing on the sucking anyway. The drugs they'd put her on for pain were very nice and mixed well with the chemo medicine, putting her in a sort of hazy, floaty state.
Normally those states were attributed to alcohol or pain killers, and none of those memories were particularly good, but Dani had a hard time caring about that. It was more a problem for when she was out of there.
Her biggest problem right now was that there was nothing to do but wait, and that gave her plenty of time to think about how Wrex was leaving. And leaving part of the ranch to her. She didn't know what to think about it, but that didn't stop her from thinking about it while she trained herself up some pokemon. Why did Snorlax always look like he was trying desperately to get up?
Logan didn’t know. He was a little depressed - losing one’s mouth definitely didn’t help with that, but Eli wanted to move in with her boyfriend, and his home was going to be a little lonelier with out her. It was depressing. So he decided to go and cheer someone up to see if it would cheer him up, too.
He figured Shep could leave Dani alone for a few hours right?
He knocked on the door, then entered.
Shep wasn't there. Dani thought she probably had a lot of paperwork to sign right now, and things to work out with Wrex. She looked up when the door opened, wondering who was walking through it this time, then pointed at Logan and stared.
He had no mouth. Dude. Where had his mouth gone? That was weird. Silence was one thing, but having no mouth? How was he supposed to EAT? Man he must have been going crazy without the ability to drink beer. That amused Dani.
She pointed again, right where his mouth should be, and laughed, even though no one heard it.
Logan shrugged a shoulder. He even tried to pop a claw and make a mouth, but it healed right up. His brows furrowed in a scowl, then he flipped her off with a claw and sat down next to her. He made a vague gesture like ‘you okay?’
Dani gave him a look for even trying the mouth trick, rolling her eyes and crossing her arms a bit. Then she shrugged a shoulder noncommittally and pointed at the drip into her arm, like any problems she did have were easily solved there.
Logan nodded his head, then pulled a notepad out of his pocket. He scribbled and held it up to her.Enjoying yourself?
His handwriting was pretty horrible. Dani squinted at it a bit, then held up a finger and pulled out her starkphone. There was a kind of notepad application and she tapped out a response in it, then showed it to him, Trying to. Glad I'm almost out of here. The drugs I'm on are nice. Surprised you aren't hooked to a beer IV.
Not a problem with me, I can last longer without food. He had tried to snort beer though…. He looked at her, and at the equipment and sniffed. Then he wrote. Shepard leaving you alone?
Dani snorted, and tapped out, No, I think she's convinced herself that sexual healing is an actual thing.
She looked exhausted from it, but not particularly miserable about the idea. Who would be?
Logan smirked. He wouldn’t be miserable about it either, but really she needed some rest. I’ll try to distract her for a bit so you can get some rest. Damn, you look wiped.
I'm really fucking exhausted. It was bad with the radiation, and pretty bad with the other drugs, but this stuff I have to be in the hospital for. Dani stopped tapping letters on her keyboard and just shook her head a bit. Then she grinned and added, It's kicking my ass but it's worth it. I'll be fine. But I could use a break from her attentions, not gonna lie.
Logan nodded, and noted on his pad that he’d distract Shepard for a day or so so that Dani could get herself a break. He flashed a grin at her, then added Need me to sneak any food in?
Even though it was likely to make her sick, Dani's first thought went to cheeseburgers. She grinned and tapped out: A gigantic cheeseburger, with bacon. Mayo, lettuce, onions.
After a bit she added, Have you seen Wrex? He's supposed to bring paperwork.
Not yet. I’m sure he’s on his way, Logan replied, pulling out his phone to order her a cheeseburger. He showed her the order.
She looked the order over, then gave him a big thumbs up. After a second, she tapped out, You know what would go great with that cheeseburger? A beer. Mmm, beer.
Dani smirked at him as she showed him the text she'd written on her phone.
Now that Logan could assist with. He pulled out a cooler and took out a root beer for her, then put a finger to his mouthless face.
She'd been trying to tease him, since she had a mouth to drink a beer with, even though she couldn't drink a beer anyway. But she was actually still pretty happy to see the root beer. She grinned at him and took the bottle from his hand, giving him a look like 'who am I going to tell?'.
The bottle was hard to open, and after struggling with it for a few seconds she held it back out to him.
Logan rolled his eyes and cut the top off with a claw. Really, that was all he was good for, wasn’t it? But at least he’d made Dani’s day. He hoped.
His eyerolling was met with an adoring look. He knew he was good for more than that, and Dani thought he was being a little silly. She saluted him with the root beer, and knocked a bunch of it back.
Good Company, Good Drinks, Good Food. It was turning out to not be such a bad day after all.
