Continued from (x). @eolaii (if this is alright)
A click of heels in the hall, a shadow through the door. Angela was coming. She looked tired, as though she hadn’t slept. She barely had time away from the lab, not with so much worry about her projects mounting. But lately she only found support (and solace) from Dr. O’Deorain. One of the few who was encouraging. It should not have been comfort, but it was.
She was reading off a clipboard as she entered the lab, hair falling over her face and glasses. “Moira, I was looking over some of the gene panels you gave me about Gabriel and I-”
She looked up then to see her on the floor, eyes widening at the sight. One of Moira’s arms was an angry, abused purple, different from a bruise but yet growing under the skin all the same. The clipboard clattered to the floor then as Angela broke into a sprint.
“Moira! I’ve got you! What happened, what do you need?” She crouched at her side, gently rolling the other woman’s head, fingers pressing against the soft skin of the taller woman’s neck to find her pulse.
