Isla
If they had known each other a little better, or if Everest didn't give such handle with care vibes despite the brilliance of his eyes or the crookedness of his smile, Isla might have playfully jostled him for that look. As it stands, though, she can only give a self-deprecating sort of smile in response and glance back to his notebook. A book that, surprise surprise, contains more than just notes about Stormbreak's initiatives.
He flicks away from the pages before Isla can get a better look, though it's with a gentle raise of her eyebrows that she listens to his comment. "For a man so busy, I am sure you don't need to be a doctor to know that you are getting an inadequate amount of rest," she says. "I'm sure your mother would say the same." Isla, however, is not his mother, and it isn't her job to police his schedule, so she turns her focus to other matters.
"Oh, that's a very clever idea," she says, of involving others without formal medical training. "I used to train others in basic first aid, back in the early days in the Grounds." It's a fond memory, and Isla nods her approval as Everest jots the points down. "Those in Torchline would definitely turn up for a free drink. I'm not sure if Stormbreak is quite as thirsty, though." She grins.

sooner or later, we all have to wake
