While the other agents were interrogating the captured giant or taking care of civilians, Rebecca was hanging out in her own private room at the infirmary!  Unconscious.  Again.

The room is empty for now and the teen doesn't seem to be awake.  As much as she hates the place, she'd probably be running out of there if she were able, hospital gown or no.

Eric's sitting on the chair next to the bed. He is fiddling on his phone waiting for her to wake up.

After some more time phone fiddling, there's a quiet grunt from the bed!

He'd set the phone down and turn to look at Becca.

"Back to the land of the living?"

"Do I have to be?" She opens her eyes and flinches, immediately regretting it with a pained groan. So bright.

"Don't tell me." She knows where she's at. And hates it.

"Good." Another groan, this one with dread as she looks at him, waiting for her eyes to adjust or the room to start doing funny things like pulse when she's trying to look at Eric. It feels like someone decided it would be fun to take a sledgehammer to her head an never left a memo.

"Why am I here?"

Still staring, gaze unfocused as she frowns.

"English, Eric."

"I fell off a..." She closes her eyes. Looking around feels like someone's turned lasers towards her eyeballs. It doesn't help fill the gap, however.

"The guy we went after?" He had been described as a giant, she remembered that from the briefing.

"How the heck did I manage that?"

"I unno. I wasn't there. But I'm taking you off field duty until you learn to go five feet without hitting your fucking head again."

He rolled his eyes.

She closes her eyes with a sigh.

"No you're not." Apparently she needs a helmet whenever she walks out of the pod.

She doesn't point out that half of the times haven't been on the field. It was pointless. She huffs and keeps her eyes closed.

"So how fucked up am I?" Because clearly her best friend is going to know.

"Well you have horrible taste in men, you seem to have an odd fetish for being stabbed by a man over twice your age, and I'm pretty sure you don't have underwear on under that hospital gown."

He shrugged.

"So normal?"

"You're right, my taste in women is much better." She sighs, wondering how long she's going to have to be here.

"What is my life even?" Her eyes fly open as she looks at Eric with a scowl! "Hey!" She was a bit late on the underwear comment.

"Oh? What's your taste in women then?"

Very curious.

"Hey what? I'm just asking."

"Hospitals let you keep them unless there's surgery there or something," she states in a flat matter-of-fact tone. "Pants, too. Usually." One foot peeks out from the side of the bed as she pushes herself upright and tries to turn towards Eric to get out of bed.

"Speaking of clothes, where are my--whoa." She holds on to the railings of the bed as the room spins, but doesn't sit back. The sooner she can get out of here, the better.

"Hey I'm just playing."

He said with a chuckle. Until she tried to get up. He'd zoom in to try and steady her. Not really careful about touching her arm as his focus was making sure she didn't fall. He'd try and ease her back into bed.

His efforts to help are only partially successful, since Rebecca's already pushing herself to ignore the dizziness and get out of bed anyway. However long she's been here has been more than long enough.

"No." She waves her hand at him, no intention of rotting him as he touches her skin. "I need to get out of here." Her jaw sets in a hard line with the word, stubborn enough to keep pushing, even if Eric's taller and has more muscle than she does.

Gonna nope right out that door.

There's a slight tapping on the doorframe of the room.

"Hope I'm not interrupting anything too private."

"Of course I'm alright." Scoooooooooowl. So much.

"Only my escape," she huffs at Taner, recognizing him from earlier. It does give Eric the chance to get her back in bed.

"Looks like you came out of it well," she adds to the newcomer. Who is not trying to be helpful.

He totally gently pushes her back into bed.

"Nothing private. Just this bonehead trying to get out of bed for some reason."
