*Maggie is visibly relieved to see Van der Mullen go, but exhaustion is starting to hit her again, and she looks very tired*
*She looks at the pills uncertainly, then back and forth between the two of them . . . but she trusts them both, so she takes the glass from Cora and the pills from Bard, swallowing them one at a time. She then holds the glass in both hands, sipping at it slowly*

*Bard watches Maggie take the pills, feeling a wave of relief: as though the greatest part of the battle is over now*

*The gatorade tastes rather strange to her, but she makes herself finish the glass, not wanting to worry Bard and Cora any more than she already has*

*She leans back against the pillows, drained* I think . . . perhaps I just . . . need te rest, for a moment. . . *Her eyes start to drift shut*

*Bard sets the glass down. He draws the blankets up to Maggie's chin, and seeing her breaths become slow and regular, he whispers*
Rest well, Maggie....
*He turns to Cora.* I'll stay here with her, Cora. You can go if you need to.

:::Cora a sighed:::
At least she was able to recieve some medication... :::she nods to Bard:::
I will go see that Van der Mullen is not out of place...he seemed disoriented. Kept looking at me...
:::She walked to Maggie's side, and just looked upon her::: Rest up, Maggie. Goodnight. :::She looks once more to Bard and then heads to the hall:::
*Exit Cora to Main*

*Maggie sleeps steadily for some time, occasionally shifting or talking as she dreams, but resting more soundly as the medicine gets into her system*
*Eventually, her eyes flutter open again. Still half asleep, she gazes around the room, gradually recalling where she is*

*Bard is sitting much where Cora left him, looking weary and only partially awake. When Maggie stirs however, he springs to life*
Maggie! How are you feeling?

*An expression of concern settles on her features as she looks at him, but she smiles faintly to try and reassure him* Better . . . . *and even though she's still not looking anywhere near as well as she normally does, she does seem a bit less pale, and she's certainly more alert than she was before*

I'm glad... *he reaches over to the night stand and picks up the thermometer*
Let's check that temperature, shall we?.
*he holds it out for Maggie*

*She nods and takes the thermometer, studying it briefly before putting it under her tongue as she did before*

*When the thermometer chirps, Bard removes it from Maggie's lips*
99.4... better. Ready for some medicine?

*She nods again, pensive as her eyes fall on the bottle of aspirin* These things . . . they're from your time?
