Sixth Dark Hole [Action/Phone]

[It was an average for Doc Scratch of 916 Bilko Boulevard. He awoke early, got some coffee and breakfast and went out the door to his job. Being a car salesman sure was hard work, but he was more than happy to serve the citizens of Mayfield their automobiles. At the end of the work day, he gets into his own car and begins driving back home. Home to his darling children, darling wife and wonderful-----

And then he snaps out of it. It's very sudden, but he suddenly regains conscious control of his body.

.....

And he can't drive this car.

Oh for the love of--

[A; In town]

[Today Mayfield decided to undrone him. That's nice and all, but did they need to do it while he was driving a car that he didn't even know how to drive? Luckily, the wonders of teleportation mean that he was able to get himself out without crashing and dying. He dropped onto the ground as a result and got slightly bruised on his human head (which he is now gingerly rubbing every now and then), but he is otherwise unharmed.

The car was not so lucky.

Someone might walk by him, as he stands a few feet away from the dark red car, observing how it crashed straight into a telephone pole. He is noticeably not wearing his regular white suit, but a more tacky beige one. He looks rather disorientated, so warning to all those that approach: he may not be as smooth as he normally is on the uptake.

Alternatively, you might come by just as he waves his hand and watch as the crashed car momentarily glows green and then vanishes from sight.]


[B; Phone]

According to my calendar, it seems I have been droned since the end of August. I do appreciate the break, but they should practice a bit on the 'undroning' portion. I can't comment much on the experience, but I digress. If anyone could inform me on any major events that happened during my absence, I would be quite thankful. Spare me any personal stories, because I admittedly don't care and I don't have the energy to feign care.


[ooc: Off hiatus officially with this.]

[He'll be back only a few seconds later, now with a bag of ice and a paper towel covering it in his hand.]

Like this?

[He never really had a head injury like this before, so he has no clue what to do really.]

Close. But I think this will work better.

[She takes out a handkerchief from her purse, wrapping the paper towel and bag of ice in it.]

There. Just hold that over the bruise, and it shouldn't swell too badly. If your head hurts at all, it will help with that, too.

[He moves to hold it over his head, but quickly flinches from the cold of the ice.]

This is really too much of a nuisance.

I'm afraid so, but a bruise would be worse.

How long do these bruises take to heal? Pardon me for all the questions, but I am not use to having a human head just yet.
