blessed are the curious, for they shall have adventures
As nurse Milligan told Finn yesterday, he cannot take all of his medication at once. And she knows he knows where it is. So at least that hardly needs to be said this time. Even so, he finds himself standing at the nurse's station, watching her knit with quiet curiosity until he gets her attention. However long that takes. "Hello. I am here for my prescription," he says softly, as if she's the dragon guarding some treasure room beyond. (Because she is).
He doesn't expect to get the prescription just from that, of course. But perhaps the sound of familiar voices will at least alert Doctor Hart to his presence, just as it had the day before. And if not? Well... Finn will get what he came for, and he'll leave. And his disappointment will be crushed underfoot with the safe knowledge that this was probably a terrible idea anyway.
