When; Saturday, 10/27
Rating; Unknown, but Circus-related body horror in many threads
Characters; Bruce Banner, Luke, Serrure, Sif, Asami Sato, open to anyone in City Solutions or with a good reason to be there
Summary; Bruce has ended up treating several of the Circus' victims and now they're cluttering up his lab and apartment. Open post for people to visit Luke, Serrure, and Asami or pester Bruce (and possibly Sif)
Log;

Bruce's lab and apartment hadn't been intended as a makeshift hospital ward, but there they were. He'd set Asami up in his bedroom and Luke and Serrure were still kept in separate rooms to keep their magnetism from dragging their wounded bodies back together.

He's immediately available by network, but at the moment he's in his kitchen brewing up some chamomile tea. More accurately the water's heating and he has his forehead pressed against the stainless steel door of his fridge.

[ooc: Just set up threads for the various temporary residents for easy visitation.]

Nothing injected at all? I will come off the drugs if it will help to find a sample of. Well, there must be a reason. This is a very long--it is very long for a curse. I don't like being pulled apart, in...I want my magic.

I don't have any experience with anything that would inhibit your magic. I'm sorry.

No, it's not... It wouldn't be. [He makes a sad noise.] Are you nearly done? Can you give me a bit more than what's...I want to be unconscious, please.

Almost done. Just a little more. [He'll just stop talking to focus on getting the bandages replaced.]

Luke... I can give you something to help you sleep, but you're just going to wake up again.

I know. I'm using up an awful lot of your supplies. I don't mind, you know, if you need them. I don't mind.

With this lab I can synthesize pretty much anything I want, I'm more concerned with ending up with a junkie Loki on my hands. [What a horror that would be.]

A which? [No, but he can work out the idea, probably.] I've had years and years and years, Bruce, and I've yet to find anything I like more than fire.

I can't keep you knocked out forever, and Serrure needs you.

Yes. Yes, he does, it's true. I know you're right. Perhaps I could move to his room and you could knock me out for just a little while?

[He thinks about it, not wanting to tell Luke no, but not wanting to have the two of them stuck back together again.]

If I put a partition between the two of you to keep you separated, we can do that. Serrure would probably appreciate the rest too.

[Luke chews the inside of his cheek a moment, before nodding.] Alright. I shall take that.

Then I'll arrange it. Just give me time to get everything set up. You can stay there for now.

Ok. [He feels younger and smaller than he's felt for ages.] I'll wait.
