"Already there then?" Aron smiled and handed Dawn one of his pancakes. "How's math coming for you?"
Daniel smiled, wishing he had the energy for just more than a kiss. Even if he had it, Scott and Mia wouldn't be so understanding.

"Into long division and geometry now." Dawn answered, between bites. "And thanks."
"Get a room, guys." Mia laughed as she passed by.
Kendall stayed beside Ebony. "This might sound redundant, and maybe unneeded, but you're going through hell. I can see that. Please let me shoulder some of that load."

"Already in a room." Daniel answered quickly. "I know it is called a clinic, but it is technically also a room." He lied down. He still had some fever, though it was nowhere as near high as it had been when he came in.
"You're welcome. Come to me if you got any problems with math. It is very important in engineering and mechanics, so I know it pretty well." Aron said.

Ebony gave a deep, forlorn sigh, "It's so painful... I can barely cope... I just feel like giving up..."

Phoenix blinked for a moment and pulled alongside the Viper. "Look Ebs, its not helping any just staring out that window."

"I just... don't know what to do..." sighed the Viper.

"Well how about we get you away from the court for a little while," Phoenix said.

"Forget about the case for a while and clear your mind. It looks like the weather will be OK for the day." Kendall glanced at the clear, cool sky.
Mia brought fruit drinks over to Daniel and Liska. "Do you think you can hold something down now?"
"Mr. Khalil thinks I'm pretty good in math." Dawn spoke of one of her teachers. "He says we should concentrate on sciences and engineering to hold our own in this world."
"Darcy n' me are helpin' each other at readin'." Misty added.
Someone else was also approaching Aron, with two children in tow.
The dogs picked up their pace as they saw Delfina riding in the distance, and started to bark.

"I don't know until I try." Daniel said and took one of the drinks. "This is the first time I am a hospital or clinic not because of an injury. I never even got the chickenpox." He took a small but long sip, he had barely eaten anything in 24 hours.
"Let me then be your tutor at engineering once you get there." Aron chuckled. As getting in more comfortable position, he saw Shakeen out of the corner of his eyes.
"Hey Shakeen!" He said cheerfully and stood up to greet her and her kids. "How come you are here?"

"Would it help...?" asked Ebony, "I never had any time to be carefree in any point of my life..."
"I can understand what it was like to have a life like that," agreed Ricardo, "Remember, I lived it myself. But, I agree. It might be a good idea to revisit some of your old haunts."
"They're only memories..." said the Viper, "but so many... and they're all I know of my younger days..."
"And some of them were happy days, as I recall," Ricardo pointed out.
"Yeah, what are you guys getting at...?" asked Ebony.

Delfina had ridden out far until she got to the main road leading to Cortez. She dismounted Spirit and led him along the side of the road, walking beside him.

"Why don't we go see your guy's old stomping grounds and see whats all changed," Phoenix said.

(((((OOC: Stupid internet acting up... grrr...)))))
Ebony blinked for a moment, not quite comprehending at first, but seeing that the arguments of going were reasonable. She nodded slowly, "Alright..."

"Someone here needs his teeth worked on." Shakeen put a hand on the shoulder of her son, who scowled reluctantly. "Julian brought us over so that my boy can get braces in and not have an overbite as he grows." There was a dentist at Ash Mountain, an older gentleman who had been retired from the profession for a time prior to the blowup and who had come in with his son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren. He'd had the foresight to take some basic tools and supplies with him, but the rest he'd had to improvise.
Dawn and Misty giggled a little. The boy's eyes strayed towards Dawn, and he blushed.
"I'd really be interested to see your old haunts." Kendall said. "It's still part of who you are."
"Just take it a little at a time." Mia said. "You've gone a long time without anything."
Rocket was first, pulling up alongside Delfina and whining. Shadow came after.

'Well... I guess it would be alright to show you around..." said Ebony.

Delfina turned slightly, but her expression was dull, "Oh, hi guys."
Spirit snorted and turned his attention away from the dogs.

"Come on," Phoenix said. "It might be fun."
