[ it's just a voice post, because amy pond is just vain enough not to want to spread her puffy face over the network when she's ill, and she's feeling too awful to put any effort into her appearance, either.

her voice, too, sounds wrong- hoarse, interrupted by coughing. ]

Well, this is bloody miserable.

[ attached to the voice message is the fragment of a text message that, instead of finding its intended recipient, is now all over the network: ]

--- want pretzels. and ice.

I mean this politely: keep your misery to yourself.

[ it takes her a while to reply. her head hurts a lot, all right, focusing is a bother. ]

How was that polite?

[trynotodie]

salty foods might help.

[ that text was supposed to go to rory only, not to everyone, and she's not read her own message back to find the misfire, so- ]

[ Gwen's not sure why a text like this would show up on the network? But now she's got a craving for pretzels. ]

pretzels would be so good right now.

[ for what it's worth: amy isn't sure either. even with how tired she is, she's caught on to the fact that it's made it to the network instead of rory's inbox, though. ]

right?? wish i had any

[timeisluck]

guess the kitchen wouldn't stock them ...

would they?

text;

[postscriptum]

not sure i want them enough to risk making the trip to find out they dont

text;

[timeisluck]

good point.

text;

[postscriptum]

you also sick?

text;

[timeisluck]

yeah, unfortunately.

i was going to go to the labs in like 1 hr but i can barely leave my bed.

[postscriptum]

bloody space flu

text;

[timeisluck]

seriously it's the worst!

but guess it was bound to happen. the pods and the medbay checks can't catch -everything- right?

text;

[postscriptum]

sure wish they could, though, yeah?

text;

[timeisluck]

if it means not feeling like a gross bag of germs anymore, then definitely.

text;

[postscriptum]

pretty sure it'd mean that

text;

[timeisluck]

oh - another thing i wish i had: ibuprofen.

idk if you've been getting these killer headaches but i had one just this morning. i might just drag myself to the medbay later to see if they've got any on this ship.

text;

[postscriptum]

its not ibuprofen but they've got stuff

text;

[timeisluck]

really?

oh, thank god.

text;

[postscriptum]

yeah. so it's worth the trip

text.

[trynotodie]

[trynotodie]
