[ooc: backdated to Sand In Your Eyes (end of)]

Hello, Hermione here, currently writing this from the exit of Ra'esh's temple.

We've found water for the sandworms in a pool, in a cave. We also found a woman in that cave. Her name was Marath, she was alive, and she was tied to the altar and chained. We've set her free - and if anyone has a word of criticism about that decision, by all means, convince me why any living soul should be chained to an altar and left to rot and to thirst and to die. I'll wait.

Anyway, Marath's people are the ones who occupied Uruksithar. She claimed she was left behind because she warned them not to go into the desert. Once freed, Marath ran (rather athletic for someone of her condition if you ask me) and left myself and Vi locked in the temple.

Don't worry, we're out now. Keep an eye out for Marath, if you can. And don't drink the water from the cave if you make it there, it felt...oozy.

( he's scandalized, gold star revoked! )

Now why'd you go and do a thing like that?

[reparo]

To look for the key!

[homeostatic]

How deep was this pool?

[reparo]

Knee-ish deep? Not very deep. And we didn't stay in it long.

[homeostatic]

( there's just a deeply-exasperated sigh. he's pinching the bridge of his nose. )

Okay. Let me rephrase my earlier statement:

I need to see both of you immediately. Have you changed out of your contaminated clothing, at least?

[reparo]

Yes, I caught the exasperated urgency, Doctor.

[homeostatic]

Well then hustle. Talk 'n walk, Granger, I'll meet you halfway.

[reparo]

Look, it'll be easier if you stay put and we find you. I will hustle.

[homeostatic]

It better be 'we', you go on 'n tell Vi she can't escape.

[faceblocker]

i'm fine don't worry about it

[homeostatic]

By golly, are you a doctor?

[faceblocker]

by golly, i've got plans

[ of the made up 'avoiding unnecessary check-ups' variety. ]

trust me i've been covered in worse

[homeostatic]

Well change 'em, it'll either take five minutes now, or countless hours later if that liquid starts meltin' your skin off.

[faceblocker]

hermione already did a thing with her wand it's fine
not like i'm a sponge, it didn't just soak into my skin or anything

[ Or who knows maybe some of it did, but look he is probably going to have to hunt her down if he wants her to be seen... ]

[homeostatic]

Magic ain't the be-all and end-all, 'specially if you don't even know what you're looking for, Vi.

( He's already on the move! )

[faceblocker]

i can't remember the last time i saw a doctor and i don't see why i've got to start worrying about it now. my skin's not gonna melt calm down

[ she is heading to camp and gunning for a Caitlyn hug and if he gets in the way of that...!

well just try it. ]

[clavesregni]

Vi, you should let him take a look at you.

[faceblocker]

seriously? afraid you'll catch something?

[ Oh wait what if Cait does catch something. ]

fine but only because he said five minutes

[clavesregni]

I'm afraid you'll catch something.

2/2 (surprise!)

[faceblocker]

[ Caitlyn...is making her see the doctor... ]

ok but i'm leaving after five minutes no matter what the hell you're up to
