Excisor Gets a Visit from Omen

[16:04] <~Pink|DM> It is hard to say if Cueball lives up to her name- People tend to be pretty divided on what mental image the name itself conjures up. Omen has found the woman with the southern accent and bronze colored hair to be pleasant, sometimes overly friendly if anything- usually she was on comms when Omen was patrolling. If she was pissed off at being called in to take the place of Verdict and Backlash, ...
[16:04] <~Pink|DM> ... she showed no sign of it. "You ready, hon?" she asks the ward as they pause outside the hospital room door.
[16:08] <Teruzi|Omen> Omen straightened her costume a bit before answering. "Yes, I'm ready"||
[16:11] <~Pink|DM> She smiles, gesturing for her to proceed. "I'll be right behind you," she says. But she looks about your age, so you're gonna get to do most of the talking. Figure Director Tarde'll be less likely to rip you if things go well- but if you need me I'm right here!"
[16:14] <~Pink|DM> From Ellie's perspective- that is, Ellie in the bed and not the one outside(and a good thing they don't know each other's names yet!) - not much has happened. A brief chat with a couple of doctors, and with her parents. She's technically free to go, but they'd rather get some fluids in her first. And, of course, the PRT is coming around for... well, they were supposed to be around an hour or so ...
[16:14] <~Pink|DM> ... ago but... surely they were held up for something important. Ahem.
[16:19] <Zeus|Excisor> While waiting for someone to come talk to her (and for her cat to be found), Ellie amuses herself by testing out her powers. Mainly by messing with her bed sheets while trying not to shread them with her claws. However, there's only so much she can do while sitting in a hospital bed. She hopes that the wards or whoever show up soon.||
[16:22] <Teruzi|Omen> After the ... incident with Kid Gloves, Omen was determined to make up for her blunder. And giving a good first impression was important for that. She knocked on the door before going in. "Um, hello. I really hope this is the right room?"||
[16:32] <Zeus|Excisor> Ellie looked up as the costumed girl entered, her body above her sheets from her experimentation. 'Finally' she thought to herself, 'Strange that she doesn't know the room though'. "If you're one of the Wards, which from the costume I assume you are, then yes, you probably have the right room. The PRT guys earlier told me to expect someone." She studied the girl and her companion, their costumes looked awesome. "Did you guys find Ozzie yet? He gets aggressive when he's scared and I don't want him getting hurt."||
[16:34] <~Pink|DM> Cueball follows Omen in- she is moderately tall and athletically built- she makes white spandex look good in precisely the way that a lot of folks don't. She offers the girl on the bed a pleasant smile, glancing towards Omen's cat carrier. From inside, some very angry feline eyes glare.
[16:34] <~Pink|DM> ||
[16:38] <Teruzi|Omen> Omen stopped dead for a second when she saw the woman behind the door. Her leg was ... gone. She tried to hide her shock, and was thankful that her mask covered her face. The sounds coming from the cage of the cat roused her to action. "Oh, so his name is Ozzie. I think this little fella missed you" Omen came close to the woman before carefully leaving the
[16:38] <Teruzi|Omen> cage on her, taking care not to hurt her. "And yes, I'm a ward. My name is Omen and it's very nice to meet you"||
[16:39] <~Pink|DM> The cage wobbles oddly as it passes the space where the missing leg would have been, before settling onto the bed. "Mow."
[16:39] <~Pink|DM> ||
[16:41] <Zeus|Excisor> Ellie's eyes go wide with happiness "OZZIE!" she squeals gleefully, quickly opening the carrier and freeing the cat, making sure that her claws were staying incorporeal for this, she didn't want Ozzie to get hurt. "Thank you Omen. Thank you, thank you, Thank you." She lifted the cat into her arms and leant back onto her pillows, letting him settle, curled up on her chest.||
[16:47] <Teruzi|Omen> Omen couldn't help but giggle at the womans' reaction. "No, it's the least we could do" She debates with herself wheter or not to mention the injuries. "I'm really sorry about your accident and about, uh, your leg."||
[16:50] <Zeus|Excisor> Ellie, deciding she could have some fun here said "Thanks, I'm still a little scrambled about what actually happened." While she spoke she used her phantom leg to hook under a corner of the sheet. "As for the leg, well I think I can manage." She lifted her leg, causing the sheet to apparently levitate off the bed, a cheeky grin spreading across her face.||
[16:52] <~Pink|DM> Cueball whistles softly. "That's some trick," she says with a grin. "I'm Cueball, by the way."||
[16:54] <Teruzi|Omen> "Oh Lord" Omen jumped backwards a little bit from the surprise. "... you startled me" She can't help but smile a little. "I don't think I've heard your name?"||
[16:59] <Zeus|Excisor> Oops, she'd been so happy to see Ozzie she'd forgotten to introduce herself. Except, should she give them her actual name? No, not yet she decided. "Heh, sorry." she sad, a slightly guilty expression on her face, "I haven't picked a name yet, though I've had a few ideas. My favourite is Excisor, but I don't know if it's taken yet or not." And if you thought that trick was startling she mused, wait until my next one. Suppressing a giggle she looked at Cueball "I'm glad you liked my little trick." she said, grinning.||
[17:00] <~Pink|DM> The woman grins back, subtly prodding Omen in the small of her back towards the bed. ||
[17:03] <Teruzi|Omen> "oh, you already have an idea for a name. It took me waaaaay too long to come up with one." Omen bit her lip before continuing, thinking about her words for a bit. "Excisor is a great name, I hope you get to keep it"
[17:05] <Teruzi|Omen> "And, well, I don't want to annoy you but since you already choose a cape name and all." She got close to the bed and sat on the corner, making sure not to sit where Excisor's leg would be. "I guess you already thought about becoming a hero?"||
[17:09] <Zeus|Excisor> Ellie considered the question for a moment before saying "Something like that yeah, I want to help people" Glancing down at Ozzie she added "And animals. I was going to be a vet, but I don't think I'll be continuing that path. I rescued this little guy off the street you know."||
[17:21] <Teruzi|Omen> "Well, you know. God never gives us more than we can handle" The sentence ringed a little bit hollow to Omen now, but it felt right. "I think you should focus on getting better now, Excisor. I just wanted to pass by and give you Ozzie back, he missed you a lot." Omen was not completely sure how pushy she should be, but she had a feeling this was not a simple
[17:21] <Teruzi|Omen> 'how you do' visit.
[17:23] <Teruzi|Omen> "When you're feeling better, and you think you're ready to help people, you should come by the headquarters." Omen smiled widely at Excisor "I would love to see Ozzie again. And I think you will make a great heroine"||
[17:27] <Zeus|Excisor> "Thanks Omen." Deciding to have a bit more fun, Ellie carefully lifted Ozzie, settling him in her arms, before swinging her legs out of the bed and standing up. "The doctors said I could leave when I wanted, I just wanted to wait for Ozzie first." She grinned, waiting for their reaction.||
[17:30] <Teruzi|Omen> "Um, Excisor. You still have your IV" Omen moved quickly to support the woman, but she seemed fine without her help. "I, uh, wouldn't believe that you were in a car crash if people hadn't told me"||
[17:31] <~Pink|DM> She also only has one leg.
[17:31] <~Pink|DM> Though that doesn't seem to be stopping her.
[17:33] <Zeus|Excisor> Remembering the IV drip Ellie glances down "Oops, forgot about that, it's just a saline drip though, I was a bit dehydrated or something from the crash." She watched the two capes' confused expressions "Any guesses as to how I'm doing this?"||
[17:37] <Teruzi|Omen> "I, uh ..." Omen was left speechless for a moment. A brief image of a woman claiming that the Lord had healed her flashed through her mind. " Um, is that your power?"
[17:37] <Teruzi|Omen> ||
[17:38] <~Pink|DM> "Really good sense of balance?" Cueball quips.
[17:38] <~Pink|DM> ||
[17:41] <Zeus|Excisor> Ellie couldn't restrain herself and giggled. "Omen was closer. It is part of my powers." She grabbed the loose sheet from the bed and wrapped it around her leg. "You've heard of how Amputees claim they can still feel their lost limbs? My power made that a bit more literal." She idly tapped a hand against her leg.||
[17:41] <~Pink|DM> "Glad it wasn't your head, hon."||
[17:42] <Zeus|Excisor> "Yeah, that would've been weird, though then i'd be needing a horse to fill out the costume."||
[17:43] <Teruzi|Omen> "that's very handy" Omen cringed right after opening her mouth.||
[17:53] <Zeus|Excisor> "Anyway, thanks for coming to talk to me. Could you let the nurse know that I'm ready to go, on your way out? At least I assume you guys are about to leave, I'm sure you're pretty busy after all." She hoped that didn't come off too brusque and decided to add "It was good to meet you both, I'll be sure to come by the HQ when I'm fully back on my feet. Maybe I'll have some costume ideas by then."||
[17:55] <Teruzi|Omen> Omen smiled at Excisor before shaking her hand. "It was nice to meet you too. We'll be sure to speak with the nurse" She turned to Cueball and give her a short nod "I hope to see you again Excisor. And bring Ozzie!".||
[17:58] <Zeus|Excisor> "You bet, I'm not letting him out of my sight for a while at least." She nuzzled the little guy's head, he was so cute when he was cuddled up. As the two capes turned and left she phased through part of the bed before lifting herself into a sitting position. That was going to be handy.||
