Slow recovery [Open like an open thing]

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

It had been a while after her fight with Kara and Sofia was still feeling the effects. The small bruise on her lung had healed but her two of her ribs were still broken, and there wasn't much to do for them other than rest. And pain medication. To be honest, she was a little out of it from the medicine, but well enough for any visitors that might happen by the medbay. They would be a most welcome distraction. It wasn't like she could do much of anything here.

Another slow day. These sort of things were getting more and more common. At this point, she'd enjoy another monster rampaging through the ship. Letting out a sigh, Irma opted to wander across the ship, finding her way to the medbay. Peeking in, her eyes went wide seeing Sofia there.

"Holy...!" Irma muttered before entering the room. "Sofia? How did you get here? ...No, asking if you're okay would be pretty stupid right now.

"Hello Irma." Sofia smiled, then sighed (and then winced at the sharp pain in her ribs from that sigh). "I got into a fight with Kara. I didn't know she was so powerful. I should have known better." Although oddly, she didn't seem to regret it. Instead she was cold, holding down the simmering rage inside of her.

"Hoo, boy..." Irma said, sighing as she took a chair and sat down beside the other girl. She had a suspicion as to what was the cause of the trouble, but she didn't want to start pulling straws.

"So, you mind telling me what got you to fight someone strong enough to get yourself in the infirmary?" she asked.

Sofia scowled. "Because Julian Keller is a liar and a cheater and Kara would rather insult me than believe me. She didn't want to let me go without a fight. I was too angry and hurt to leave." Although she had tried.

Irma let out a sigh. She was right - guy troubles. And of course, Sofia was sounding a bit like Cornelia at the moment: a bit too hard-headed to let go of some things, especially when it came to pride.

"See what happened? I'd say next time think before you act, but in these sorts of situations..." Irma trailed off. She shook her head a bit a smiled. "I know you probably won't accept 'don't worry about it right now', but at the moment, try to relax. If ya want, I can try to keep you company!"

Nura has been meaning to say "thank you" to Cissie for all that she had done when Nura was in the Med Bay a while back during the Nightmare King's reign of terror. She has decided against zee-zeeing the young girl over the comm and instead coming down to the Med Bay to personally deliver the message of gratitude.

But when she walks into the Med Bay, she catches no sight of the spirited young girl. Instead, she sees Sofia in one of the Med Bay's beds.

She strides over. "Sofia?" Her eyes flick around and notice how bruised the young woman is. "By Cassandra...what happened to you?"

Sofia smiled. "Yes, that would be nice, thank you. How have things been for you?" Her demeanor brightened.

"I got into a fight with Kara." Sofia stared at the foot of her bed, then back at Nura and smiled faintly. "Not the smartest of things to do."

[magictrkswwater.livejournal.com]

Irma returned the smile. "Frankly? Boring I kinda miss my hectic way of life. One minute doing schoolwork, the next fighting to save the universe." She let out a chuckle. "Oh, sure, we're doing the same thing but... oh, you get what I mean!"

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

"Yes, the school here isn't really the same. Not as much work at all. And since the Nightmare King we haven't had very much to do. I would spend my time dancing but I will have to find something else to do." Now that they weren't talking about the fight she was back to her normal self, very happy.

"Frankly, I find the lack of school work a godsend." Irma said. She shook her head a bit and leaned over in her seat, continuing to look at Sofia. "Something else, huh? Had any real plans?"

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

"Compared to what work was like, going back to school is nice." She tilted her head. "Well, I was working with Ava on prom. I need to talk to her at some point about that."

[magictrkswwater.livejournal.com]

"Ahh... prom, yes..." Irma said. She scratched her head and grinned sheepishly. "Hope that isn't too soon - I'm not ready for it!"

[crysteel-future.livejournal.com]

Nura visibly bristles at the tidbit of the not-so honorable Supergirl mention, but she coolly schools her face with a wave of calm for Sofia's sake. She'll chew Kara out later - as her visions dictate.

"Then I suppose that precog flash I had a while back was true about her being a spoiled little brat, hmm?"

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

Oho, Sofia had stumbled onto a conversation that would keep her distracted, oh yes indeed. "Not ready for it? How?" Sofia said eagerly, leaning forward a little- ow, O.K. not leaning forward.

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

Sofia laughed, which made her wince and hold her chest. "Yes. A spoiled brat. That is... putting it lightly."

[magictrkswwater.livejournal.com]

Oh, jeez. Being grilled. "Well, just that... never had one, been busy where I was, Never had a date and the one person who was interested in me I wasn't." Irma said, muttering the last part in hopes she wouldn't catch that.

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

"Oh Irma, then this is your chance to enjoy one. You don't need a date to have fun and like you said, things have been boring."

Nura reaches over to fix Sofia's pillow. "I actually have a plethora of not-nice things to say about Ms. Zor-El, but I think that that would only serve to stir the anger more and we don't want that. Lie back a little, Sweetie. Liiiiiiike that. There. It'll help your ribs heal faster."

[magictrkswwater.livejournal.com]

Irma smiled a bit at Sofia. "Heh, I guess you're right. Kinda still thinking about how everything was back home - how the rest of my friends already had someone and I didn't." she said.

She shook her head and continued. "Now's not the time to dwell on that, though... especially with how you are. Does give a good few ideas to get back at the jerk, though..."

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

"Thank you." Sofia did as advised. "I hope it will not be too long before I'm on my feet. I'd hate to miss prom."

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

"Oh, believe me, I know exactly how you feel." Sofia reached over and touched Irma's shoulder. "The best way to get even is to show people how much fun you're having without them." At least she hoped.

[magictrkswwater.livejournal.com]

"That, or you can just find ways to rain on their parade." Irma said, positioning her fingers like a gun, letting a ball of water form in front of them, then fire it as a stream across the room. "Of course, that's just me!"

Nura retracts her hands sets them on her hips with an encouraging smile setting her soft, full lips. "If you get some good rest and reccuperate without any stresses whatsoever, then you should be just fine."

[ayasofia.livejournal.com]

Sofia grinned. "I'll remember that for later. But really, you should go. It will be so much fun."
