*Comes by Oram's room and leans in.*

abbey: I think the Captain wants me to stop by for a final check after the whole allergy thing. Do you have time to check me out now?

Oram: Sure.

*Oram and abbey walk to the infirmary, where abbey hops up on bed. Oram checks out abbey's neck for swelling then gets out stethoscope.*

Oram: Deep breath. *abbey sucks in air - Oram hears wheeze* Again. *abbey sucks in air - Oram hears wheeze again* Abbey, your lungs still sound pretty bad. Wheezing all over the place.

abbey *whining*: How long is this going to last?

Oram: That's the thing about Panaflex. People who are allergic have lasting effects. Mostly in the lungs. Could be a week or more before the asthma-like symptoms go away.

abbey: A week? Or more?

Oram: How long did it take the last time?

abbey: It took a while, but I thought it was because of the cold I got right after.

Oram: Probably affected it some, but the drug does enough on its own.

abbey: It's going to be a while then? *Oram nods*

Oram: How's the inhaler working?

abbey: Seems OK.

Oram: How often are you using it?

abbey: Couple a times a day. Usually after going up stairs and the like. Or yelling at the Captain. *Oram smiles at that comment*

Oram: Fighting... With the Captain...

abbey: What? The man is insufferable.

Oram: Do you know what it looks like to me? *Oram gives a big grin and raises eyebrows.*

abbey: What? You think that... With him...?

Oram: Looks like.

abbey: Well put that out of your mind, mei mei. He's just not... I don't... Oh! Never mind!

*Abbey hops off table, leaves infirmary and starts up the stairs. Oram follows her to the door*

Oram *yelling*: And keep that inhaler with you! Without it, you'll have problems! Especially with all the yelling!

abbey *yelling back*: Whatever! *abbey stops and looks over railing at Oram* And Doc?

Oram *sweetly*: Yes?

abbey: You've got a smutty mind!

*abbey continues up stairs muttering to herself. Oram hears the inhaler puff when she reaches top. Oram chuckles, goes back into the infirmary and puts stuff away.*

Oram: Definitely. This is gonna be fun.

**On the Bridge with Wash landing on Greenleaf.**

** Through re-entry and coming in to land at the port**

**Alarms wail and the ship shakes violently and starts to drift of course**

*Wash: Whoa, I just lost hydraulics to the starboard engine. Son of a Bitch. Can't keep us level.*

Can’t you compensate? *She gives me a go to hell look*

Ok Ok you’re doing that. Can you keep us from smashing into the ground?

*Wash: That I might be able to do. *She checks her screens and stands up, still fighting the controls, to glance out the window* There's a field. I think I can set us down there.

Do it

** The Book sets down not so gently, in the middle of nowhere on Greenleaf**

Good Job Wash. Lets go check out the damage.

*Wash starts to follow me out, then turns quickly to stand up all her dinos before leaving the bridge*

* Get to the cargo bay and Spots is coming back in from outside*

How bad?

*Spots: Hard to say yet. We're pouring hydraulic. Got to pull some panels to see where.*

* Later, Wash Spots and I all working under the starboard wing.*

*Spots: I need the big spanner.*
*I hand him one*
*Spots: No the big one. Might still be inside.*

I'll get it.

*I round the ship and see Brit piling wood up*

So were gathering sticks today?

*She nods: They were lonely all spread out.*

They were...forget it. Be careful, don’t need you getting snake bit or worse.

*I return with the "Big Spanner" and not long after the repair is complete.*

*As were tearing down the scaffold we hear a loud Whoosh sound. We all recognize it. Fire.
We head towards the sound only to see Brit's pile of wood burning. She holds up 3 pointed sticks with the charred gooey blobs on them.*

*Brit: Fluff Ball?

*sees Abbey walking away*

*runs to catch up with her*

Hey! You! Gamer... fancy... lady-thing... Abbey!

Y' might wanna think twice before venturing away from the boat all by yourself. Hill folks can be pretty nasty in these parts.
