8: Dearest Dr. Cuddy...

[samuraiprosecutor]

Consider yourself currently out of my good graces. I went to work this morning only to be rebuffed. Apparently I'm too contagious to be around my co-workers. A disappointing waste of time and gasoline and energy.

At least I was able to bring more work home.

Perhaps you wouldn't have been sent home if you hadn't been so stubborn Saturday, which is not Dr. Cuddy's fault.

Is it the flu then?

[samuraiprosecutor]

I am assuming so. It hasn't been formally diagnosed.

Getting sick in the first place was Cuddy's fault. So far I'm still half convinced it was a clever plot on her part.

[ttly-an-arab.livejournal.com]

If gets worse, you should; a prescription of Tamiflu will help it along a little.

And she would benefit from such ploy how...? Or are you convinced it was just out of sadism?

[samuraiprosecutor]

Hm. It's not that serious.

Sadism isn't a good enough reason? I believe she might have been trying to teach me a lesson about the benefits of vaccines.

Dude. If you're sick, you should be resting, not working. Otherwise it'll take you even longer to get better.

[samuraiprosecutor]

This sounds familiar.

My workload is too full for me to be sitting around doing nothing because of a common illness.

[know-sacrifice.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but if you're sick, you're probably not able to concentrate as much on what you're doing, and if you're sicker longer because you tried to work while you were sick...

[samuraiprosecutor]

I can concentrate perfectly well. It's the flu, not ADD.

Why does no one believe that I'll be over this soon? I'm not exerting myself. It's only paperwork. There just happens to be a hellishly large amount of it that I need to take care of.

Miles Edgeworth I suggest you stop being foolish and rest.

[samuraiprosecutor]

Et tu, Franziska?

Re: [locked like a locked thing... cause she's showing concern]

[whipprosecutor.livejournal.com]

You'll end up making errors while sick, that's all.

Re: [locked like a locked thing... cause she's showing concern]

[samuraiprosecutor]

Rest assured, I will not be making any foolish errors.

((OOC: He totally appreciates the concern, btw. XD))

[maraich]

You'd get more work done if you took care of yourself first.

[samuraiprosecutor]

I would also have much less time to do my work in.

[maraich]

But you'll work faster because you won't be groggy and sick!

[samuraiprosecutor]

By the time I'm not 'groggy and sick' I'll be back in my office, tending to many large stacks of paperwork, or in court, or investigating in preparation for court. I'd rather get done with it now than wait until later when I have further responsibilities to take up my time.

More soup?

Have you used any of the medicine I brought you?

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

Edgeworth, you came to a hospital. Contrary to popular belief? People are sick there.

[samuraiprosecutor]

I'm not unconvinced that you lured me to the hospital, strictly in the hopes of me catching the flu.

[drcuddles.livejournal.com]

I think that's the paranoia settling in.

[tourmalinefey.livejournal.com]

You did WHAT!? Edgeworth, you shouldn't be doing work if you're SICK! It won't get better if you don't let yourself rest!

[samuraiprosecutor]

Others have already beaten you to this particular advice. Many, many times.

((OOC: Sick Edgey is a cranky bitch. XD))
