Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lawrence frowned. "I doubt it. It's probably stress related and altitude. Delivery takes a massive toll on the body. Unfortunately, my age and various licensing laws prevent me from making any official prescriptions or taking any action beyond the use of readily available potions and whatnot, " he sighed. "Problem with potions are that they only heal lacerations or such wounds obtained in battle. Things like the common cold or whatever you're suffering probably won't be affected by them," he put his hand to his chin. "For now, just take it easy. The gardens are wonderful when you need to escape the stresses this place brings," he said.

Lawrence picked up the picture and looked at it. He chuckled slightly. "She's adorable. It's hard to believe we were all once that small and young," he said smiling. And so innocent. Life moves by so quickly. One moment you're playing in the sandbox and drinking lemonade with your parents; next moment you're trying not to cry when your family is getting cut down, he thought. He clutched his chest and dropped the picture. No! Not now! Please not now! he thought. He pulled a bottle out of his medical bag. He tried to open the bottle, but his shaky hands couldn't hold it. He fell to the ground.

Lawrence was unconscious. His breathing was shallow at best. The bottle he was trying to open lay on the floor.

Meanwhile, in the other dorm, Eric suddenly felt something. He quickly stood up. "Excuse me kirune, but the massage will have to wait. I've got a bad feeling about this," he said.

Eric kicked the door in. He noticed Lawrence was out cold and namine was holding a pill bottle. "Crap! He grabbed the wrong thing," he said. He rummaged through Lawrence's medical bag and pulled out a filled syringe. "I hope this is the stuff," Eric said jamming the syringe into Lawrence's leg and Injecting him with the medicine.

Lawrence quickly woke up and grabbed his head. "Did you have to stab me that hard?"

Eric rubbed his jaw. "You're welcome! I just saved your life a*****e," he said. Lawrence blinked a few times and regained his composure.
"Did it happen again?"
"Yes It did. What triggered it?"
"I don't really know. I think it was that picture over there," Lawrence said pointing to where he dropped it. Eric walked over and picked it up. "You were a pretty cute kid nami," he said placing the picture back on the shelf. He sighed. "Now I'll have to explain what happened here won't I?" He said rhetorically. He sighed and looked to namine. "Could you toss me that bottle?,"

Eric unscrewed the cap a took a pill. "Allergy medication. My eyes have been irritated all day. Thanks nami," he said. Lawrence tried to stand, but couldn't. Eric sighed. "Ok, first of all, on behalf of both of us, we formally apologize for the coarse language used. Now, about wha happened here, Lawrence has had a physically weakened heart since birth. It took an even worse dive when he gained PTSD from seeing his family cut down by heartless. Sometimes when he's under a lot of stress or sees something that reminds him of that day his heart can't handle it. He essentially has a miniature heart attack. That shot I gave him was basically andrenaline to get his heart beating again," he looked to Lawrence. "He hasn't had this happen in nearly a year. Unfortunately, this is the most stressful time for him since its when his family was cut down before him,"

"Why don't you just give them my medical records and make a biography of me you jerk?," Lawrence said angrily sarcastic. Eric sighed. "Don't try to talk right now Lawrence. You're presently in a state of..."
"weakened state due to shock. Yeah, I know. I can talk all I want now. I can get up to," he said standing up weakly. Damn, I can hardly feel my extremities. My eyesight is piss poor right now as well. Why did it have to happen today of all... Crap! I thought I was over it. Come on Lawrence! That was four years ago! he thought.

Eric sighed. "I wouldn't recommend that namine. Any strong emotions right now could take him out. We're also out of the medicine he needs. I know you sympathize with him, but his body doesn't need any kind of stress. Even a sympathetic kiss could stress him out," he said.

Lawrence sighed with the kiss. He closed his eyes. Mother... Why did you make me so weak? He was to weakened to wake afterwards.

Eric sighed. "I'll be right back. I have a call to make," he said leaving the room.

Eric sighed and placed his hand on kirune's shoulder. "I'll explain later. Right now I need to make a call. It's really important," he said quickly waving goodbye and walking out of the room.

Several minutes later, Eric returned to the dorm with a bottle of pills. He walked over to Lawrence and popped a pill into his mouth. "You're not dying on me now," he said.

Lawrence woke up seconds later dazed. "Bloody brugada syndrome. I can't stand my own weakness," he said. That day. It was today wasn't it? I thought I was over it. Why must it haunt my mind so? he thought. He took some deep breaths. "Im alright," he said. He stood up and walked out of the room in a huff.
(Exit Lawrence)

Eric nearly fell over. "Gah! What's grabbing me?" He furiously shook his leg until he saw it was Alex. He lifted his leg up and smiled. "Where've you been little buddy? I haven't seen you in weeks. Oh crap," Eric said as he fell backwards. He grabbed his back. "I really thought I could do that for a longer time," he said chuckling. I'm really stressed about Lawrence now. He left in a huff. Where would he go? I'll wrap things up here and then search, he thought.
