April station log

CHARACTERS: Sabriel, and the rest of the crew.
LOCATION: Downtime on the station
DATE: Late April through early may
CONTENT: Sabriel recuperates, and does stuff with the rest of the crew
WARNINGS: Possible discussions of death? Nothing other than that.

Early days

[Sabriel sleeps for the first day or so- between the fight with V'Rizz, and the healing, and tryingt to anchor bits of Taeum... It's hardly surprising that she ends up collapsing shortly after arrival, sleeping for almost a day in the infirmary... and spending a bit more time resting in bed- or trying to. Sabriel sings, sometimes, although her taste in songs is both old fashioned and morbid.

But more often, she's reading a spellbook, or writing down notes- sometime some indecipherable notes about binding and sealing, but other times, it's something far more understandable- notes about the orb, and past missions.

And trying to get out of bed as soon as she can, even if she's a little wobbly the first few times- but a little more stable each time.

Unfortunately, she has to be stopped from trying to heal the other patients, but at least she's awake now?]


Training

[Eventually, after she's recovered her strength, and has finally been released from the infirmary, Sabriel gets back to training. Some of it's rather mundane- sword drills, and hand to to hand forms, plus some practice with a dagger- but also magic.

For that, Sabriel practices with training dummies, aiming projectile spells at them and occasionally leaving scorch marks on the walls- or for less directly damaging spells, simply practicing calling up the marks as quickly as she can before dismissing them, the spells blinking out of existence almost as fast as she calls them up.

If approached during any of this, she'll smile politely as she completes whatever she was doing, before offering the interloper her full attention.]


Would you like to spar?

Downtime

[The common living area is considerably more spacious than the sleeping rooms, and Sabriel can e found there as well, curled up with a book, or writing down notes.

She can also be found meditating in the sunlight room, beneath the simulated shade of one of the trees, or in the kitchen, helping to prepare meals. She's perfectly happy to chat, although if you're in the kitchen, she may try to enlist her conversation partner in meal prep.]


Back to the infirmary (Locked to McCoy)

[Sabriel's feeling better now- her exhaustion gone, her bruises mostly healed- and so, when she goes back it's less for medical care, but instead to to learn the basics of anatomy- and to teach Charter magic.

She's brought a spellbook along- one that covers the basics of magic- not just the marks, but advice for connecting to the Charter, and discussion of the other, practical details of Charter magic.]


Doctor McCoy? I'm ready to start.

Miscellaneous/Wildcard

[None of these work? PM/talk to me on plurk, and I'll write up a custom starter.]

[ Grimly: ] Not soon enough.

But eventually, yes.

Unfortunately, there are probably are.

The work we're doing now - before I came here - is to try and ensure those people can't claw their way into positions of power again, or even feel emboldened enough to try it.

Of course, it's the same on PLANT's end, too.

If only it were so easy that those morons would just go and fight each other instead of using their own power or manipulation skills to use others who'd rather not deal with that shit.

But then again, that's not very far off from what just happened, here.

I'm glad it turned out ... better. This time.
