I Would Like Anyone - Student Or Staff - To Pay The Hospital Wing A Visit Should They Still Be Suffering Any Ill Effects After The Events Of Last Week.
I Understand That This Has Been A Highly Distressing Time For Some Of You.
I Cannot Heal That Kind Of Pain As Much As I Would Like To But It Is Often Said That A Friendly Ear For Your Troubles May Work Wonders.
Please Do Not Hesitate To See Me If You Should Have Need Of Someone To Speak To Confidentially.

Well, Now.
That Was Exciting Wasnt It?
I Trust You Have Returned To Your Usual Self Now.

Of Course. Come Along When Youre Ready.

THANKS, DOLLY.

[He arrives within fifteen minutes of their conversation. His body language reads as nothing but pure mental ad emotional exhaustion: his posture is atrocious, slumped shoulders, dragging his feet and there's a distinct redness and puffiness around his eyes that gives away exactly why his head hurts so much. But he still smiles when he sees her, however forced it might be.]

Hi.

[wavesofjade]

[Her own smile is small, and equally forced]

Sit down, dear...

[He obeys and takes a seat on the edge of an unoccupied bed. He presses his face into his hands, lightly pushing his fingertips into his eyes to try and distract from the ache and pressure in his head.]

So...it's been quite a week.

[Dolores goes about her work, finding something for his headache, but it's as if she's simply running through a routine, her mind on something else entirely]

Yes.. it has been.
