Room 507, Thursday Evening

[not_in_the_book]

It had been a fairly quiet week; Ronan hadn't done a whole lot over the weekend other than graduation itself -- and that one battle with the weird decoration tiger thing -- and had spent most of the week in quiet reflection.

Or, y'know, killing Skrulls, but that was almost relaxation.

Today he'd stuck to staying within his room, and had the door open as he cleaned, dancing and singing along to some quiet jazz.

[Expecting one! Open-ish, although I may crash soon so there might be some SP involved.

[ETA: No, I totally didn't brainfart and forget that Ronan was doing stuff yesterday. Of course not.]

Dinah knocked on the door jamb, looking vaguely guilty. "Ronan? Have you got a minute?"

"Dinah, hey!" Ronan waved her in, smiling. "Yeah, sure. What's up?"

"I sort of got knocked in the ribs yesterday. Tahiri said a couple were broken," Dinah admitted. "And I took some of this potion I got from Rikku, and they don't feel too bad, but I was kind of hoping you could check? I have staff practice with Arthur tomorrow."

Ronan was suddenly all business. "Let me take a look," he said, walking over to close the door. "If you don't mind, I mean?" he added, keying a privacy spell on the door and walls.

"Go ahead," Dinah said in relief, carefully lifting her shirt on her left side. "It doesn't hurt much, but I got hit with a big hammer, even if it wasn't directly."

"Yesterday, right?" Ronan asked. "Yeah, I took a photon blast to the arm. It's still kinda sore." He leaned down to take a closer look at the injury, pulling up his diagnostic spells. "Doesn't look too bad -- you took a potion, you said? I think it may have fixed the worst of the damage. They're still cracked, but they're aligned and mending. I shouldn't have any trouble healing them the rest of the way."

"Are you sure?" Dinah asked, anxious. "Because I can wait if you're still hurt or it'll take too much out of you. I was stupid, I let him get too close, so...."

"What? Oh, no, I'm fine," Ronan assured her. "Wasn't anything a bit of a spell and a good night's rest didn't fix, and I've been pretty much relaxing all day today, too. Now, this may burn a bit, or feel itchy -- that's fine, that's just the sensation of healing being massively sped up, all right? It's a side-effect of the particular spell I'm going to use."

"Okay," Dinah said, slightly nervous, remembering how it felt when he'd healed her mostly-fixed nose. She tried to hold still, and kept her eyes on him, waiting.

The spell came easily, as healing did now, and it was the work of moments to feed Dinah's body the power it needed, to tell the cells, "You know what to do. Here, do it faster!"

As the words finished, Ronan straightened, a little wobbly but recovering quickly. "That better?" he asked.

Dinah lowered her shirt, then stretched out her arm, sideways, then above her head, smiling brilliantly at Ronan. "Fine! Thanks, Ronan." She gave him a concerned look. "Maybe you should lie down? Are you okay?"
