Dumb and Drummer

Built with a generous grant from one of the University's benefactors, this clinic serves as a small teaching hospital as well. More severe injuries are stabilized, then transported to Muir Island. It also houses the University's research laboratories.

Will came back into the medical area and strode right over to Will's bed.

"Goob. Up and atom, c'mon, we've got work to do."

"I'm sorry for being concerned," Sam says, quirking a brow as she leans in the doorway.

How long she'd been there was hard to say.

"Mmm. Concern's all well and good, but nothing gets fixed by sitting on your ass," Will shrugged, dismissing her concern. "C'mon, up and atom."

"I mean when Tereza gets banged around, you go out on the warpath. When this one," he said, jerking his finger at the other Will, "and the Skrull get beaten down, you can't be bothered to even check things out. Good to know what it is that gets your panties in a twist."

"Yes, because it's far beyond the powers of the Morrigan to locate someone located down a hallway.

What's eating me?. Guilt, maybe. You wouldn't think it, but between the two of us, the one getting his head fucked with and working at a vampire's beck and call sure as hell had a better time than the one supposedly safe here. He got released back here as a placebo, in order to make the X-Teams not chase after Miriam. He would have been better off with me, rather than with the glorious and oh-so-caring staff and classmates at Xavier's Passive University, that's what's eating me.

Now are you coming, or not?"

"That's a long list, but we can start with these bastards.

Oh, stop lying there and get up. Start getting into character," Will said, turning to the other Will. "Cowboy hat, tight pants, massive inferiority complex. Should be a cinch for you."

"Um...right," Will said, quickly glancing between Will and Sam to make sure everything was on the up-and-up and he was allowed to get out of bed. "Haley. OK, I can....I can do that," he said, as she slowly began to morph.

"You've gotta show up to the meetings.

They're trying to recruit some of us, specifically. Haley, uh, Tereza, Aiden and...that weird girl from Room 131, the one with the freaky bio powers.

If they want to recruit them, they can have them. As bait, specifically. When they come to get our Tofu Texan here, we beat their skulls in," Will explained. "Better him than the actual Haley, who's filled with all sorts of breakable things. Beat up our ace in the hole, and he'll either enjoy it or write a mopey song about it, depending."

"Someone's got to stay out of the way to actually pull the surprise attack. It'll be moderately surprising when their targets attack, sure, but what if they have a telepath or something on their side and sniff it out? You need the second angle of assault to really put the pincers on them.

Then again, if you want to go all hairy, that's your perogative. Two and one or one and two; it's all the same to me."
