Ashley rubs his eyes, groaning slightly

Ashley:"Argument?"

Pockets Sun Feb 12, 2012 3:52 pm

Nikki: I told you earlier, Colin said something to Mandy that was taken the wrong way and they had it out.

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 4:28 pm

Alex sighs and heads out of the room and heads to the front desk.

Alex: You got any John Does been in a Car crash?

Jabberwocky Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:01 pm

The middle aged lady looks up at Ewan, past the glasses with a chain to dangle off her neck

"John Doe? Hmm nothing has come through my fi- wait...There was a car accident apparently. About umm forty minutes ago...Two males, both mid to late twenties...Head on collision...One in...critical....one..."

she pauses, hesitating for a moment. It's clear she doesn't want to say deceased but it's clear in her eyes

Ashley:"Every bloody thing 'e says is taken the wro-"
He takes a deep breath
"...Sorry."

Pockets Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:06 pm

Alexis closes her eyes for a moment.

Nikki: Well... now we know what probably happened.

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:08 pm

Alex: Well.... let's start with the one who isn't....... um.... what about the guy who's critical..... I think it might be my brother in law.

Jabberwocky Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:17 pm

Ashley:"Ah I'm sure 'es fine. Just needed to blow some steam off...aye?"

The woman cocks her head at Alex
"Brother in law?...How did you...get here so fast?...Um either way if there is any documents. Um, photo ID anything like that so that we can make a positive match with him first. Would you or your wife have anything like that on you?"

Pockets Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:19 pm

Alexis nods.

Alexis: Yeah... he always manages to get himself out of trouble as much as he gets himself in trouble.

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:23 pm

Alex pinches his nose and sighs.

Alex: Uh yeah..... we do..... I'll be right back.....

Alex walks back in the room looks at Lexi, Ashley and Nikki. Then goes and takes Colin's driver's license out of his wallet.

Alex: Um..... just double checking.

Jabberwocky Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:26 pm

Ashley:"Sometimes it seems thats all yer brother knows...I guess the apple didn't fall too far from the tree huh?"

Ash watches as Alex takes the wallet, and looks over at Alexis as he leaves

Pockets Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:27 pm

Alexis' eyes widen.

Alexis: Double checking what?

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:31 pm

Alex: Speculating isn't helping anyone sweetie.....

He goes back to the desk.

....that's him, Colin Connor O'Ryan.

Jabberwocky Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:40 pm

The woman looks surprised
"O'Ryan? But he was here about an hour and forty five ago. Um what was it...injured hand I believe..."
typing...
"Yeah hand fractured in 3 spots, dislocated knuckle. He was bandaged up and..."
she takes the ID
"One moment please."
she stands, walking to the back and out of view

Ashley:"I'm sure everything is fine."

Ten minutes later the woman returns with a doctor
"You are Colin's brother in law?"

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 5:56 pm

Alex: I am.

Jabberwocky Sun Feb 12, 2012 6:07 pm

"I wish I had good news. At this point...we aren't sure if.......We are still working on him right now. Your family is welcome to stay in the room your wife has been staying in for the time being. I can inform you all as to any updates. Um did you want me to break the news?"

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 6:16 pm

Alex takes a deep breath and nods.

Alex: It would probably be better that way, yes. I'm sure the family will have questions.

He leads the doctor back to the room.

Jabberwocky Sun Feb 12, 2012 6:59 pm

The doctor enters the room, glancing at the babies before turning to the family
"Colin was in a serious car accident. He's in critical condition but we are doing all we can."

Pockets Sun Feb 12, 2012 9:42 pm

Nikki: Oh... God... the ambulance before... that was for him....

Alexis sits down hard on the hospital bed.

Alexis: ... no ....

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 9:55 pm

Alex sits next to Alexis and just stares at his wife.... his expression changes.... as if he's trying to do extremely difficult maths in his head.

Pockets Sun Feb 12, 2012 9:57 pm

Alexis notices Alex's expression.

Alexis: What is it?

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 10:03 pm

Alex looks towards the doctor.

Alex: I need a full list of his injuries.....

He looks back towards Alexis.

..... and I need my salts.....

Pockets Sun Feb 12, 2012 10:05 pm

Alexis looks uncertainly hopeful.

Alexis: You think those could help something like this? I thought those were more for minor injuries?

Cruel Britannia Sun Feb 12, 2012 10:12 pm

Alex: I can't make any promises.... I've never tried making up a batch for something this major before.....at the very least.... maybe I can heal enough of the minor injuries that his immune system can focus on the major stuff.... maybe it can do something.... it can't hurt to try.....

Pockets Sun Feb 12, 2012 10:14 pm

Alexis: Maybe his hand anyway.

She looks very bothered.

Jabberwocky Sun Feb 12, 2012 10:30 pm

"Sir with all due respect, please have some faith in the medical staff here at the hospital."

Ashley is stunned, finally blurting out

Ashley:"I want to see me boy."

"You can all see him soon"

Ashley:"I want to see me boy NOW!"

the doctor looks at Ashley apologetically

"Mr.O'Ryan, I am a father too. You will be the first one allowed in the room to see him....Um is his mother...?"
