entranceway | 03

[Maggie looks a bit paler and much more exhausted than usual, but puts on as warm and chipper a front as she can. She's clearly sitting on the floor as she posts this.]

Hello again, Wonderland! While it's good to see all of your lovely faces, those nine flights of stairs up to my room are a considerably less welcome sight. Would someone be so kind as to help me up to my bed? A couple of someones if necessary? I've had an eventful week and I'm not at my best.

Once that's managed, I intend to stay there for a few days at barest minimum.

I'll be hosting horror movie marathons tomorrow night and the night after, in room 969, barring Wonderland-interference. Prior acquaintance not required! If horror isn't your cup of tea, feel free to stop by during the afternoons instead. Incidentally, non-metaphorical cups of tea will be available, or your hot or caffeinated beverage of choice. Hope to see you soon, darlings!

((Spam tags for movie night or afternoon visits also welcome!))

[Private to Mahir, Shaun, and Georgia]

[More seriously, dropping any pretense:]

How long was I gone? Let me find my bed, and then all of you get over here before you ask what you've missed back home.

[She doesn't want to do this more than once.]

[Huh, that's lovely. And his first thought is that it is related to Wonderland, and between events. Always a concern in the back of his head.]

You able to walk at all, or need to be carried? Where you at?

Sounds like someone needs a superhero.

[He gives her his most charming grin.]

Oh my god you are such a dork.

I can walk from my bed to the bathroom on my own. Stairs are still a bad plan.

[Tim is super in the mood for all kinds of distraction.]

It happens I'm in the mood for any kind of movie--including horror. Need someone to make a library run?

Friend of yours, Tim?

[There's the cheering up she needed.]

That would be you, I assume. Are you volunteering your services?

[She summons up a smile. When someone calls himself a superhero, the appropriate response is obviously joking flirtation to cover up just how worn out you are.]

So carried up to your room. Fair enough. I'm already on the floor, but could help with that if you don't find anyone else. [Because he's betting around here, most would volunteer.]

I'm actually sober and everything.

Looks like you have a few offers to get you up to your room, so I won't bother with that--it's been at least a few days.

[He looks worried and he's definitely biting back about a thousand questions.]

You okay?

He is a Super friend, as a matter of fact.

I have someone proclaiming himself a superhero below you, so I'm probably set.

Stop by my room at some point, though, would you? I like company, and if I can't play hostess quite as well as usual, there's always closets.

Just not right now. I have a feeling I'm about to be tackled, hopefully only metaphorically, for news from home.

A bit longer than that on my end.

I will be. Gunshot wound, less than a week ago, no major damage to any organs and you got me to medical professionals in time. [She does specify 'major,' though. She'll be fine, but she suffered more than just blood loss.]

As if I'd ever turn down a library run. Surprise me, please!

Yeah, that gig apparently comes with tights. So wouldn't claim it, so good luck. If they're in tights, scream.

[He couldn't help himself.]

I can make that happen. So this was getting shoved back home and not someone here?

You got it.

[And toward the evening, Tim will arrive with The Fly, The Mummy, and Dracula.]

Knock knock.

"I'm too lazy to get up, let yourself in!" Maggie calls out. She's fairly certain she recognized that voice. She has already dragged herself over to the couch and sprawled there rather than her bed.

Think I'll be alright. He comes vouched for by one of my favorite people in Wonderland.

Wonderland is thus far blessedly free of the CDC. No suspects to watch out for.

"I come bearing movies," Tim says, shutting the door behind him. "Some classics in your favorite genre that will hopefully be entertaining enough to keep your mind occupied." He's not sure what happened to get her laid up, but it was clearly very serious. He doesn't buy the "too lazy" comment for a moment.

Stop talking to your mirror, Tim.

The one, the... apparently not only Superboy. [He waves an arm and nods.] And yes. I figure between the super strength, flight, speed, and tactile telekinesis, I can get you up there comfortably and fast.

Presumably a week, though we didn't catch it for sure til a few days ago.

[But it's usually a week. She has no reason to think Maggie would be an exception to that rule.

She also has a whole lot of questions about what she's missed back home, but at Maggie's request, she keeps them in. For now.]

Do you require medical assistance? You don't look great.

Are we seriously at "I know you are, but what am I?"

[They've only spoken once before, but the fact that Jay hasn't seen his fellow movie night host around the office in at least a week has been enough to get him a little worried.]

[She's back, though, and that's good. She can't walk, though, and that's considerably less good. He could probably drag her upstairs in a pinch, but it sounds like some other people have it covered.]

As the, uh...as Shaun's gofer, I guess, 's there anything I can get you? Like...stuff to watch? Something from the kitchen?

I'll never turn down something to watch. Pick a movie and come over after I've had a chance to settle back in and talk to Mahir, Shaun, and Georgia, please.

Tactile telekinesis? [Talk to this fiction nerd about your superpowers, Kon.]

Perfect. I'm under doctor's orders not to exert myself just yet. I'll be in the entrance hall. [In other words, she's not moving at all until someone gets here to carry her upstairs.]
