My brain hurts.

Almost 48 hours.

I have no idea how you LAN-party geeks can stand the taste of Red Bull, but I have to admit, chase it down with some Excedrin and you can keep sharp all through the night. I think I recall eating ... something on Monday.

Reactive frequency white noise generators were the easy part, once Doctor MacTaggart brought down the vibranium paneling. Stuff's a bitch to work without a plasma torch, though. So, of course, they brought me a plasma torch. I love this place.

Fiber-optic sutures, now THOSE were a stroke of genius. I can't believe no one thought of that before. Wait, yes I can. Because I'm the most brilliant mind on the planet, baby!

I helped save someone's life over the past two days, they tell me. And I'm not sure if that's more of a rush than all the caffeine. And, I mean, it was easy. No one gave me any shit about needing materials or space to work or soda or anything.

Now if I could only remember how the hell I got back up to my room. And where the hell my pants went.

I made something that saved someone's life. This is so cool.

...It is Monday. Still. For almost another half hour. I hope you've eaten since last Monday.

Want a snack? Oatmeal, venison, some of the approaching-infinite variety Lorna's been producing? I've been chased out of the medlab again on the grounds of minimizing the exhausted people to the absolutely necessary and most experienced.

Damn, Rahne beat me to the offering of snacks.

Either way: you get a blank check, for this. Anything I can do for you, you just ask.

We weren't exaggerating

You did save Alison's life. Thank you.

Oh, you might be interested to know, Hank's back. Dr Henry McCoy, in other words. He's very impressed with your work - he'll probably hunt you down in the morning to babble at you accordingly.

Did you draw up specs for your final result? I'd love to see what you came up with - did some research on fiber-optics last year and I'd be interested at how you were incorperating them.

And isn't the plasma torch fun? Now that Dr. McCoy's back the interesting physics lab ought to be properly open again and you can probably get permission to play with all the toys!

Thank you, for Alison and for everything.

Totally cool

What you did for Alison, that is. Thanks, Forge. But Dude, eat. Red bull is cool. My soda of choice is root beer though.

You're probably going to be doted on by the MedLab staff for a while, just letting you know. Again, thank you.

Dude.

One. I think your pants are draped over the screen for my computer. Dunno, since I was asleep when you got in.

Two. Water bottles in the minifridge. Lots of 'em.

Three. You are awesome. Seriously.

[x-foliate.livejournal.com]

Your pants are in my room.

...

No, they're not, I just like making everyone double take. No sleep humor.

Good work, you. I seem to be on day slightly into night duty -- I'm the red shiny one by the way, did we go over that part? -- so I can't stay long, but good work and hurrah and Coke for breakfast still sucks. A lot. My teeth are rotting out; I can feel it with my tongue. I might be stealing your Red Bull while you sleep. Evil cackle etc.

Now. I am off to face my arch nemesis... The Med Lab Flooring. We'll see who's tripping who today, oh ho.

My caffeine vector of choice for all-nighters is usually Mountain Dew or Jolt. Can't stomach Red Bull. Well, I can't really stomach Mountain Dew or Jolt, either, but when it's in a good cause...*shrug*

I imagine you'll be getting congratulations and 'blank check' offers from everyone who cares about Alison at some point, so consider me adding myself to the list. Anything I can do for you, just name it.

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

yes, yes yes, we love you.

go shower. PLEASE. I did!

and now you know why we do it :)
