Ivan,

Would you please look in on the horse for me? The Imperial Ass seems to be having trouble getting out of bed today, as the Imperial Sniffles have turned into the Imperial Plague. We apologize for Our impending death and your impending resulting frustrations.

Regretfully,

Gregor

P.S. If this letter caused you alarm, please give yourself a refresher course in detecting the Imperial Sarcasm.

[Gregor is sick as a dog. Apartments adjacent to his have probably heard violent, deep, chesty coughing for about two weeks now. Ordinarily, he'd have on-site approved physicians checking him out and prescribing whatever antibiotic was necessary, but here, he has to actually go seek out help. So. To the Battle Dome clinic he goes, looking specifically to see Adele LeBlanc when she's in. He will wait for her, if necessary.

Afterwards, he's going to the library, then the bakery for coffee and something sweet. Anyone stopping in can see him sitting inside, devouring a psychology textbook and sipping coffee, the cream cakes reduced to crumbs. They are the only thing he has eaten all day. He is not looking great, occasionally falling into bad coughing fits, for which he ducks outside, but recovering fairly quickly. When he heads home, he goes straight to bed despite his plans to work out. And the fact that it's the middle of the day.]

PI--

I suppose we're supposed to be pen pals, whatever that entails. I hope you're adjusting to the village well.

And what does it mean if she tries one that doesn't work?

[He was afraid of that.]

How long would it take to pick up on that?

And what...might you do in the interim?

[This doesn't seem a moment to be particularly tactful.]

That's accurate, yes.

I think that depends on what you might do in that interim.

It is important if it makes things worse.

Continuing to live takes precedence over stopping living 'like this' surely.

Not die! You seem to have at least managed that so far.

It would just be great if they made you not depressed.

Right. Tell me before you start on them.

[Had Gregor been enjoying not having Ivan constantly watching him? Because that might be changing...]

Good. Thank you.

[He's just going to take that at face value, because that's easier.]

's what I'm here for.

[Or as much as what he's here for as anything else.]
