Vanora Silverwaters felt a touch ill at Eva's question. She was a warrior and she had seen grievous injuries in her days but the memory filled her with revulsion. What she could remember of it anyways before she succumbed to blood loos.
"I'm not sure you want that answer." she said with a grimace.
"You?" she asked.
"I'm not sure you want that answer." she said with a grimace.
"You?" she asked.
EvaLazaro snorted, nodding in understanding, her own memories of what brought her to the hospital enough to turn her own stomach... but mostly for one reason. "My own stupidity," she said quietly.
She looked down at her arm, wrinkling her nose at the patches of rotting flesh, fighting the urge to weep. Closing her eyes, she leaned back into the pillow and took a deep breath. Yes... stupidity.

"Is that so?" she asked. Her head was starting to clear more, maybe the drugs were working out of her system, though the discomfort and pain of her injury was becoming more apparent in her expression and words.
"I could say the same, but it doesn't get me my arm back. Live and learn." she said with a hint of dry humor to her words.
"I could say the same, but it doesn't get me my arm back. Live and learn." she said with a hint of dry humor to her words.
EvaLazaro bit her lip. "Yeah... live and learn..." she echoed, slowly... sadly. "But... you can only learn if you remember..."
She lifted a finger to prod at the edges of the rotting flesh on her arm, wincing all the while. "I'll probably lose mine too," she frowned.

The young girl poked a head into the room warily, a sickly-colored green robe tossed over the hospital gown all admitants were required to wear. Her eyes caught a woman she didn't recognize, but they brightened when they fell on Vanora. She bounded into the room, seemingly normal as always, and came up to the side of her guardian's bed. "Hi, Miss Vanora! I hope you're feeling better." Odd, if the sight of the missing arm disturbed her, it didn't show.
Vanora Silverwaters moved to sit up when she heard Cheyenne but she was still weak and she lay back again. "Hey there, I was wondering what you were up to. And I'm fine, never been better." she said with a grimace.
"How long have I been here?" she asked.
Though distracted by the entrance of Cheyenne, she hadn't forgotten Eva either and gestured towards her with her hand, "That's Eva." she offered.

EvaLazaro turning her head at the arrival of someone new, a visitor for Vanora, Eva closed her eyes, trying to give the two some semblance of privacy in this impersonal setting. Hearing the introduction, she opened her eyes and smiled at Cheyenne for a moment, nodding in greeting before squeezing her eyes shut as the movement reawakened the brutal pounding within her head again.
"Just a couple of days." Her eyes went back to Eva at the introduction, and she shifted nervously, with a noted lack of polite offering of a hand. Instead she gave a small half-bow, and put on the kindest smile she could muster. She managed to do it without spitting up into her mouth, which she was rather proud of, but of course she wouldn't say something like that out loud. It was painfully obvious, however, that the rotting flesh captured her morbid attention more than it should have. "N..nice to meet you, Miss Eva."
Vanora Silverwaters groaned. "Been feeding yourself alright?" she asked. The girl was more than capable, but she was still concerned for leaving her to fend for herself for days.
"You alright Eva?" she asked. "Do you need a nurse?" she added.
"You alright Eva?" she asked. "Do you need a nurse?" she added.
EvaLazaro lifted an arm and waved dismissively. "I'm alright, really..." But was she? Would she ever be?
"I'm just going to... close my eyes... don't mind me... I'll probably fall asleep soon anyway..." She felt awkward, realizing that she had no one to come visit her... Well... Sir Redway had... and the woman who had put her here in the first place... but she had no friends to come... no one to be concerned that she was here except for the one who had erased her memory of any friends to begin with... It saddened her... far more than she wanted to admit...

Vanora's voice pulled her attention from Eva, and the smile returned to her countenance. "They've been feeding me all kinds of yummy things! Milk and soup, and some wobbly stuff they called jell-o. It was good!" Bright blue eyes went down to the empty stump where Vanora's arm once was. "The doctors couldn't get it back on?" She frowned slightly, a taint of guilt in her eyes.
Vanora Silverwaters grimaced at the question, "Don't worry about it. I hear I have you to thank for being alive eh?" she asked. She didn't really want to talk about how she lost the arm in front of the child.
"Those magic lessons must be coming along." she said.
She cast Eva a look. The woman didn't exactly seem alright, but hey it wasn't her business.

“
Yeah, that's what the nurses told me, too. But..." She glanced out the window a moment. "I don't remember doing anything. I saw you....and....all the blood....and then....I fell asleep. Or something. The doctor said I passed out. But he said that just means I fell asleep, so I don't know why they don't just say it that way."
”
Vanora Silverwaters chuckled lightly, noting that Cheyenne at times could be such a typical child, but noted also that at other times she couldn't shake the feeling that the child was older and wiser than herself. She wasn't sure if she would ever make heads or tails of the girl
"Sorry you had to see that." she offered with a grimace.
"Sorry you had to see that." she offered with a grimace.
She smiled sadly. "The doctors said I was ok to go, so would you mind if I went to Gambit's and got some tea? They won't give me any here."
EvaLazaro had been listening without intending to, her eyes closed, her head turned away. Perhaps it was the stress of the past few weeks... Perhaps it was the horror at not remembering a good chunk of her past... perhaps it was finding out that people wanted to kill her, wanted to enslave her, wanted to own her... and not knowing why... whatever it was, suddenly, Eva wanted nothing more than to cry.... but she didn't.
Vanora Silverwaters waved a hand towards the door, "Of course not, go on. I should rest anyways." she said, though in reality she was eager to get out of this blasted hospital.
She cast Eva a glance, the woman really didn't look well.
She cast Eva a glance, the woman really didn't look well.
With a grin, she skipped out the door, robe and hospital gown floating behind her. She disappeared around one corner, and after a beat reappeared across the doorway, sheepishly heading in the other direction.
Vanora Silverwaters smiled as the girl skipped off. Cheyenne's pleasant demeanor was quite infectious. She turned her head towards Eva though once the child had departed. "You sure you're doing alright?" she asked with a frown.
EvaLazaro bit her lip, taking a deep breath. "Yeah... just... could use some pain meds, thats all," she muttered. She tried to force the previous thoughts from her mind... "Besides, aren't I the one supposed to be asking about you? You just got here..."
Vanora Silverwaters snorts lightly, "I've felt worse." she said. While not exactly true, Vanora was very good at taking things as they come and was taking her injury quite in stride under the circumstances. Live and learn she had said, and that's how she took most things in life.
"Pain meds wont do much for that arm, the doctors doing anything for that?" she asked.
"Pain meds wont do much for that arm, the doctors doing anything for that?" she asked.
EvaLazaro turned her head to look at her arm, fighting her own inner disgust. "They have no idea what it is... what's caused it... they don't know what to do and everything they try makes it worse." She frowned and closed her eyes. "I should have just left... I shouldn't have ever stopped in that stupid bar in this stupid city."
Vanora Silverwaters snorts. "You can't live your life afraid to do anything just because bad things might happen. A life like that isn't worth living." she said pointedly.
"Shit happens. Learn to give it right back and make sure the day you go down, you go down staring it in the face." she said pointedly as she shifted to try and get more comfortable.
"Where I grew up, old age was something few reached. You learned to enjoy life, no matter what it may throw at you. Life's too short to spend hiding from it." she explained.

EvaLazaro turned her head to look at Vanora, her brows furrowed. "But there's so much..." She sighed, shaking her head before grimacing and lifting her hand to her forehead. "I've spent my whole life running... and what I haven't run from, I've forgotten... and having forgotten, I don't know what I'm running from now, and why I should be..."
Vanora Silverwaters chuckled briefly, "Maybe it's a blessing, the not remembering. If you don't remember what you're running from, seems as good a time as any to stop. Take things as they come. Dig a new niche for yourself in life and don't let anything take it from you." she said.
"New beginnings are hard to come by." she said.
