[000] Open Log: Month 3

[This is an open RP log for visiting Al during the third month of his recovery. He will be in a medically induced coma for the first week of this month.



Al has suffered a severe setback in his recovery and will not be doing well at all. Bonus: Intravenous nutrition, hydration, and medication!

Better drugs -- Al may be less sensitive to sensory stimulation. He may also be a little more loopy.

Al will not be very alert/able to talk. He will have shorter periods of clarity in which he is more lucid.

Al is hospitalized and in Intensive Care. Visitation will be restricted to ten minute intervals and feel free to attempt a visit, only to be turned away.]

10 minutes? Pfft yeah right.

[There's no way in hell they will displace Ed after ten minutes and he will be sitting there, all day every day while Al is in a coma. Half the time he will be sleeping against the railing, and the other half, grasping Al's hand tightly.]

[Somewhere around the sixth day, he's getting somewhat desperate at watching Al sleep.]

Hey Al...aren't you better yet? Honestly...

[He scoffs.]

We're all here you know, hanging out, spending time with you. How rude is it to sleep through it all?

[Ed smiles just a bit.]

Hohenheim told me he told you about himself. That ass, huh? [His tone softens.] We owe him so...[He swallows and sits up a bit.]

Alphonse Elric, you get better right now. Winry and I have a wedding to have and we only have nine months to get you ready. I mean...if Hohenheim is going to die in a year and this memory...I want to give it to him so...if this is the case, then you damn well better get ready!

Re: 10 minutes? Pfft yeah right.

[They'd taken Al off the sedatives a few days ago. Now it was just a matter of waiting for them to flush from his system so he could wake up normally. But so far, he hasn't. He hasn't changed much at all since the first night they brought him here -- not breathing on his own, his heart barely beating.

But his eyes shift under his eyelids as he hears Ed's voice.]

Okay, Brother. [He whispers it -- if Ed wasn't listening, he might miss it entirely.]

[Of course he's listening!]

Damn right. You will get better, Al!

[And that's the first sign of life Al has shown since they put him under.]

[And Ed is grinning, pleased, but Al doesn't look like he's getting up so, he can sit quietly, holding Al's hand.]

[Rachel is here to sing to you, Al! She comes with... actually nothing but herself and one of her hideous outfits, no sheet music necessary here.

And knowing Rachel, well, it's Barbra Streisand.]


Memories
Light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were

Scattered pictures
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were

Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? Could we?

[Al is in a medically induced coma, Rachel, so he can't tell you that your voice is beautiful. Or that your sweater looks like a kindergartener's. But if he were awake... well, he probably still wouldn't mention the latter. But thank you.]
