[Tim has been pretty absent from the Barge for the past week or so. He's been seen getting food, but he hasn't been particularly sociable...at all, really. He's been in brooding mode. It's a thing he does. So the signs that he's been getting sick have been largely missed, most particularly by himself.

When the video clicks on, there's a groan, and the device wavers for a moment before steadying. Tim is in bed, shirtless because that is how he sleeps, and he's holding the camera above him. And he looks like shit. When he talks, it comes out as a croak. His sore throat went from bad to worse.]

Someone bring me chicken soup. Please.

[His arm gets tired and you all get an extreme close up of his forehead, because that's where he's resting the device. The rest of the audio is muffled, since the mic is like an inch from his mouth.]

Oh my God I think I'm dying. [He's just being a drama queen. But he does groan again, and the picture shuffles and shifts as he rolls over, dragging the covers up over his head before the feed clicks off.]

Aslan and I will have words if anything happens to Zitka. Which, for the record, I don't know if Jesus Lions eat circus elephants.

does too

Words, Timbo. You keep that carnivore in check.

Ill do my best

but he's a jesus lion

he cant be tamed

If you say so.

I do

I apologize in advance if I somehow damage your lock.

[Who are we kidding lock picking is like, second nature at this point right.]

why

clumsy

Noooo dont damage it

I dont want to replace it

Be not clumsy

I've got it under control. [Ye of little faith, because look who it is, with one of those bed in breakfast trays with soup, complete with a straw and spoon, and holding Zitka under one arm.]

How are you feeling?

You're a gentleman and a scholar. [But most of his words are getting lost in his pillow, because he has his face turned into it. He does peek at Dick with one eye, though.]

Crappy.

I can see that. [He sets the tray down on the bedside table, drops Zitka next to Tim and carefully puts the back of his hand to Tim's temple to try and see how bad the fever is, which, you know, would be easier if it was your forehead and/or he had a thermometer with him but.]

Did McCoy come by already?

[So picky, wanting everything to be easy. Pft. Tim just grabs for Zitka and pulls her close, and once Dick's hand is gone, he settles her on his head. Because.]

Yeah. He didn't have future soup. Just a hypo and stuff.

[Because why, elephants don't go on your head.]

You up for some modern day soup? [It might require sitting up and having a tiny amount of coordination.]

[CIRCUS elephants do.

Duh.]

Yes please.

[Sitting up, maybe. Coordination might be asking too much. He groans and pushes himself up, though, letting Zitka fall back and rubbing his eyes.]

[Dick moves Zitka and Aslan a little out of the way before carefully putting the tray over Tim's legs.]

That's the biggest straw I could get my hands on with such short notice, which for the record, I still think might be more effort than eating it with a spoon, but you're welcome to try.

I'll try both.

[And yeah he's taking the straw out, dunking one end in the bowl, and sipping carefully. Then he jerks the straw out of his mouth and bites his tongue.]

...Spoon till it cools down.

Are you okay? [Should he be retrieving some water for you, this was not a good plan, Boy Detective.]

Yeah, I'm just - [Pause to cough into his shoulder] - a moron. [Shut up his plans are awesome. :c]

Only sometimes. [Tease tease.]

You're not going to infect the whole Barge, are you?
