(( ::Turns into a zombie-kat like somethign out of Resident Evil:: uuuggghhhhhhh ::Girly Scream:: ZOMBIE!!!!!)) ::Slowly gets up, groaning...:: I'm trying to figure out why he'd freak out all of a sudden when he saw us? And what about the compass...and the door? ::laughs:: Just joking, but you were kinda out like a light.. Look... It could be anything... We've eaten any and everything when needed... He managed to land our sleeping place in a nest of leeches. We've been bitten by every insect known to kat... I could stand to sleep for more than... I just did... I need longer... much longer... ::thinks:: Those I'd think were hallucinations... A high fever can do that... ::Gets up, yawning...:: I feel better... though...

Not like sick or poison... No problem, I didn't cook much, I wasn't really hungry.. I don't eat much anymore.. I cooked this small soy-pro steak for you. ::Laughs:: And I used to think soy was something much more sickening... ::chuckles at Max's pause:: I was going to correct that for a second... We both smell pretty bad... ::produces... uh... whatever brings down fevers... antibiotic?:: ((prednisone, prilosec, cyclosporin, bactrum... quinine,... I dunno what's fer fevers...)) ::pauses at Max's words:: What would be causing it, then? :;feels Max has the answer for that one as she takes the antibiotic:: Yea, I know.. the joys of soy.. at least it's edible and nutritious. and with spices it ain't half-bad. ::shrugs:: It's not natural.... ::sniffs again:: He smells funny.... ::remains serious:: In what way? ::as she gives Razor the AB:: (( Well, that's crude... Here. ::hands over the prednisone and a vitamin B-12 shot:: ::dubiously:: This'll help his fever? No. They'll put him onna high tho'.))

But,... something... ::paws at Razor's odd, silvery black coat absently:: (( ::wakes up on prednisone:: Wow! I feel awesome!

Had it... just... being careful not to take too much... or I'll hurt myself... like I've done 'fore... Oh that. Razor dug it out earlier. It makes these funky noises if you "play" it.
