[She blinks at him when he opens the door, a little surprised by how haggard he looks.]
Well don't you look about as hale as a fish in the dirt; sheesh, kid, why didn't you say you were dying? I could'a been here faster--obviously there was no time to be wasted in the first place.
[That was an attempt at levity, for the record. Stepping inside and closing the door behind her with one foot, she takes a moment to regard Stellaluna, looking a bit impressed, actually. She's just so... colorful.]
Never seen a bat like that before, I gotta say. [And then without ceremony she just sticks one hand out and plants her palm firmly against his forehead. Then she just clicks her tongue and makes a vague pointing gesture.]
Go siddown before you fall over, Mr. Fahrenheit. [And with that she moves toward the kitchen. Her bedside manner could use a little work, it's true, but she's on a mission and efficiency is paramount. Setting the paper bag down on the counter, she pulls out a box of orange tea, several jars of spices, a lemon, a small jar of honey, and an unmistakable bottle of Jack Daniels whiskey. She holds up the bottle and wags a finger at Riku, grinning.]
So, just for the record, you're underage and this is for medicinal purposes only. Otherwise I'd have to arrest myself for contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and that could get awkward.
