Imagine: Being Sick {Part 1}
ddlesFloyd Lawton (Deadshot):
He treats you like a child. Making you stay in bed, constantly sitting you up -- even if you’re completely capable -- and giving you doses of medicine now and again. If you have a stomachache he would awkwardly stay in line at a drug store for 20 minutes just to get you stale crackers and Gingerale. He’s only ever treated his daughter when she was sick, so he doesn’t really have any experience with taking care of an adult -- coughs, correction -- he’s never exactly cared enough to care for anyone besides Zoe.
One time when you were sick, he was the first and immediate person offering to take care of you. When he realized how embarrassing it looked, he tried to shrug it off as if it was nothing. “Yeah, so what? I know how to take care of someone when they’re sick. No big deal.” Pause. “Stop starin’ at me, man.”
Chato Santana (El Diablo):
Chato, on the other hand, knows very well how to take care of you. He takes your temperature often and tells you to get up to stretch sometimes. He doesn’t want your bones to ache when you feel better. If you complain your cold it’s obvious he would warm you up. He warms up some chicken noodle soup to help you feel better, even if it’s kind of watery, it helps you feel better at least. When you pass out he tucks you in and you wake up to extra tissues and a book for your entertainment.
Harley...Harley tries, at least? She thinks you’re perfectly capable of doing the same things as if you’re perfectly well. She’s probably the reason you got sick in the first place. Don’t be surprised if she made you eat one of too many pieces of candies and chips. Either that or she slipped something in your drink. Seducing the bae with a surprise drug is even better, right? No Harley, now they feel horrible. Anyway, once she realizes they have to stay in bed all day she goes to Floyd and asks how to take care of someone with (insert sickness). He gives as much advice as he can. Therefore she pretty much treats you like Floyd would. Making you stay in bed, scolding you if you sit up, and feeding you soup and crackers. She hopes you feel better, puddin’.
Waylon Jones (Killer Croc):
Eheh...he...has no experience with taking care of someone whatsoever. It never really occurred to him that you would get sick. In his sewer (nice going, waylon). He tries his best, though! He takes your advice more than anyone else’s, you’re the one sick so you must know what you’re doing, right? You tell him you can get yourself some medicine and whatnot, and once you get everything you need he just tries his best to distract you. TV? Maybe it’ll work. If there’s a movie in place you both would watch action or comedy so you could at least laugh. Or hack up a lung. But what’s the difference? Awkward, but comforting, cuddles also ensues.
