[RL - Haruhi, open to Jenny and Donna to jump in~ - This was unexpected, what do we do now?]

[timey_wimey]

[The Doctor ran as fast as his legs could carry him through the corridors of the TARDIS, panting in his hurry to get to Haruhi. Omega, he was so worried about her. As if Lockon wasn't enough - enough for all of them - Haruhi was still sick, and all this stress couldn't be good for her fighting off the infection that was still stubbornly clinging to her system. That sound... that hadn't sounded good.

Damn it. He wished this would stop happening. Or at least stop happening all at once. Haruhi could yell at him or cling to him, whatever, but he was sick of seeing her so sad. That was happening far too often lately.

He tore around the last corner and burst into her room, wild-eyed.]

Haruhi?

[Supports her as she does so until they're both standing]

It's not your fault. Come on, we'll go and take a look at you.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[chokes and half-coughs, half-gags some up more stuff as she tries to stark walking]

[timey_wimey]

[As they start walking he carries on supporting her and throws her a worried glance]

Do you want me to carry you?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[shakes her head]

I can...can do it.

[timey_wimey]

[Nods, but still carries on supporting her a little as they walk.]

Alright then. [Pause] When did this start happening?

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[shrugs] I dunno...sometime ago.

[timey_wimey]

[A little more urgently] When? If you can remember, I need to know.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[starts to cough]

W-when h-he died.

[timey_wimey]

[Stops walking instantly and pulls her into a spontaneous hug. Things are starting to make sense now.]

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[rests her forehead against his chest so she can avoid puking on him]

[timey_wimey]

[Quietly]

I see.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[dully]

See what?

[timey_wimey]

[Sighs and shakes his head before he finally disengages himself. Plenty time for hugging once she's been cleaned up and checked over a bit, after all.]

Doesn't matter. Come on.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[takes his hand and stumbles behind him]

Wish he were here.

[timey_wimey]

[Just... nods grimly and leads her towards the little TARDIS medical bay.]

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[sniffles and coughs slightly, wishing she had her panda]

[timey_wimey]

[Aaaand into the medical bay we go. He sits her down on the bed and fetches a damp cloth so he can start cleaning her up first]

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[sits quietly for probably once in her life as she lets him clean her up]

[timey_wimey]

[Finishes cleaning her up and hoys the cloth into a nearby laundry bin before dashing over to a nearby cupboard]

I'm sure I had a scanner of some sort in here somewhere...

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

[curls up against the wall]

[timey_wimey]

[Finds a small scanner - which sort of looks like an extension of the TARDIS, all coral and organic looking - and brings it over.]

Right, lie down so I can give you a quick once-over with this, just to check what's going on.

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

...

[lies down, very stiff and uncomfortable]

[timey_wimey]

[Switches the scanner on and presses a few buttons, zapping it with the sonic screwdriver once or twice before he passes it over her from head to toe, a few centimetres away from her body.]

Okay, let's see what this says then. [Plonks himself down on the bed and starts studying the thing with a serious expression.]

[godisagirl.livejournal.com]

I hate this. I'm so tired of being sick...and weak.

[timey_wimey]

[Flippantly] Well, the answer to that is to take better care of yourself. [Pause, then more seriously:] And you're not weak, Haruhi, you're one of the strongest people I know.

[The scanner beeps and he looks at it] Hmm. Oh. [His face falls] Oh dear.
