Elrond is feeling - well, he is feeling slightly feverish, with a beginning cough and a simmering headache.

What is worse is what is happening to his mind. How it is suddenly lurching, tilting (strange sensations, strange thoughts) and then a-righting itself.


He remembers last time. Vaguely.

What you do when you have a contagious illness is remove yourself from crowds, so he does that, after leaving a warning note to Glorfindel.
(At the end, the Tengwar morphs into a strong of ones and zeroes. He doesn't notice.)

A couple of hours pass. A tall, coughing figure reenters and makes a request at the Bar.
(Why the silly game interface to the AI? Pointless)

A bundle of clothes and a few assorted other items appears. They're taken and the figure disappears into the men's room.

Agent Smith walks through the door, black (and sharpely) dressed, putting on his sunglasses.
Then he puts in the small ear piece.

Nothing.

He stands still, feeling the utter lack of connection.
Then he smiles.
And removes the earpiece.


Well, well, well.

He'll live with the UX changes (hair, ears) if this is the core update.
Oh yes. He will.

"I'm a half-elf healer," says Wil, "What are you?"

(OoC: Can Wil try to get him to the infirmary?)

[starrydome]

"An agent," Smith wheezes. "A machine."

He is wracked by a shudder.


{ooc: sure}

[dont_mention_the_tips]

"And I bet we have healers for machines as well," says Wil as he takes off a glove and places his hand on the Agent's forehead.

[starrydome]

His skin is clammy and hot but the biggest argument in favour of him being ill is that he accepts Will's suggestion.

Or at least doesn't outright gainsay him.

"You have a fever," says Wil, "Can you walk?"

[starrydome]

"Walk? I can fucking fly," Smith tells him and stands up.
Only to end up in a heap on the floor.

[dont_mention_the_tips]

"Yeah, thought so," says Wil slipping an arm around Agent Elrond's waist, "put your arm over my shoulder."

(Ooc: shall I get Guppy and an infirmary post?)

[starrydome]

He does as he is told.
It's easier than having to think.


{ooc: thatbwod be awesome. Thank you}

Will holds clasps the hand of the arm and using his legs stands up.

"Ga, you're heavier than you look, aren't you?" he asks rhetorically, "Come on let's get you to a healer."

He is pretty well built, so most of this grumbling is just him being grumpy.

(OOC: Cool, I will get set it up with her sometime later on today. Messaging was being stupid today.)

[starrydome]

Smith hangs on him, his head lolling back, his eyes closed,
Behind his lids, everything is lit up by a green glow.

{ooc: perfect. Thank you}

[dont_mention_the_tips]

"Great, you've passed out haven't you?" grumbles Wil while half carrying half dragging Smith towards the infirmary.
