Hank sits in the small office in the Infirmary and watches Magius. It is the first time Magius has been away from Nina's side in days and he is pacing back and forth across the office. He is worried and tired and Hank has just managed to force some food down him. Now, once more the man glances towards Nina's small curtained bed and then back at Hank. There is quiet for a long moment.

Millitimed to be after this (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/10795742.html?thread=452462046#t452462046), there's a weary, sore, and disoriented Giles stopping by the infirmary.
His blue eyes scanned around, looking for a doctor.

Magius glances up and sees Giles.

"Giles? Are you alright?"

Hank sees him at the same time and hurries forward.

"What happenned?"

"A troubling experience. Ran into a being, a living drug. Any contact with her causes one's mind to enter another realm mentally. Barely survived." Giles sat down in a seat gratefully. Magius might notice the faintest glimmer of silver in his eyes, and a definite feel of magic around him.

"Had to take desperate measures, but I found out something rather important."

Hank nods as he runs the scanner over Giles. He winces as he sees the signs of strain and dehydration. He hurried out for a moment, then was back with two hyposprays and a glass of water. A big glass.

"Here. Looks like you have mutliple muscle strain, dehydration of most of your biody, depletion of most of your natural nutrients and a certain amount of disorientation mostly stemming from the above. I am proscribing you Atheresol, a nutrient booster, as well as a general nutrient shot, and that you eat something salty and drink a lot of liquids then go right to bed. And take it easy the nextr two days or so."

he hesitates then before giving Giles the medicine.

"You know you are still somewhat residually magical, right? I cant tell how, but it clings to you."

Giles nodded, "Thank you, Hank. I will in a moment."

He glanced down at himself, "Oh yes? Curious. I suppose I carried the effects back with me. As I said, I had to take desperate measures. A plea as it were to the forces for strength. No wonder I felt a bit off." Channeling forces through himself, and he had to carry the effects with him for a while. But balance was regained.

Hank nods and holds up the hyposprays.

"If I may?"

Magius watches Giles and nods.

"You dont look at all bad inside, as if you made a decision. It looks good on you."

Giles nodded wearily to Hank, "Go ahead."

He peered back at Magius curiously at that, silver peeking out at times in amidst the blue irises, but knew the magus had keen senses in such matters. "I did. Several in fact. Thank you, I suppose. And here I thought I took a great risk only."

Hank presses the two hyposprays home, one after another, and then nods.

"As long as you get rest, you should be fine. Is it something you should file a report on?"

Hank looks a little concenred.

Magius nods.

"Sometimes a great risk is a decision and a choice made, is often the one we have stopped ourselves from making until we are forced to."

yes Magius is being odd tonight... as usual.

Giles wearily shook his head, "No, I was as much to blame for what occured as her. I could give a description of her just so as to warn others to avoid physical contact with her for the unwary."

He added to Magius, "Indeed. I've found myself often having to make such choices. But I'm sure you understand that very well?"

Hank nods. Then cleans up his gear.

Magius ponders this as he listens.

"I do. Indeed, I do. Life is never easy, especially for a magic wielder. "

He hums for a moment.

"Perhaps a containment spell could be fashioned for this woman, a kind of dampening field that would allow her to talk and meet with people without having her effetc."

Giles nodded, "Excellent idea, it will have to be discussed with her. I noticed she normally takes measures to be careful..."

Hank nods.

"Most people with powers tend to learn ways to preotect others and themselves from them, bvut nothing is perfect."

"Indeed," Giles got up, feeling a little better.

"Thank you for your help. I should go have a lie down."

"you're welcome, and like I said, try to get p,enty of water as often as you can."

Then he nods.

"And sleep well."

Magius smiles.

"I will look you up tomorrow then."
