Chapter twenty-nine: Ah...Ah....AH-SNEEZE!


(Mac is huddled in a blanket on the couch. A cup of herbal tea in her hands)
Mac: zeh...zeh...xeHAnort!
Jaque: What was that?
Mac: That, my sexy frenchman, was a sneeze.
Jebus: Sounded like you shouted the name of the villian from Kingdom Hearts 2.
Mac: (glare) Are you saying my sneezes are wierd?
Jaque: Yes, that’s exactly what we’re saying.
Mac: Screw you. *cough, hack*
Jebus: Drink your tea, it’ll make you feel better.
Mac: (gives the mug a wary look, takes a sip) Blech! (throws mug) Stupid freaking tea! I hate tea! (burrows down into blanket) I hate being sick.
Jebus: (staring at broken mug) ...I liked that mug.
Jaque: I’ll get you a new one. Mac seems to be more of a bitch today than usual.
Mac: (from under blanket mound) Lovely sentiment from my adoring husband.
Jaque: An honest relationship is a healthy relationship.
Mac: (sticks hand out from blanket, shoots Jaque the finger)
Jaque: I love you too.
Senri: (enters from kitchen, carrying a big bowl of soup)
Jebus: That smells delicious! What kind of soup is it?
Senri: (placing bowl in front of blanket mound) Healthy soup.
Jaque: Any healthy soup for us? (Macs hands reach out and snatch bowl, taking it under the mound)
Senri: No.
Jebus: Why not?
Senri: (points to Caboose, who is entering from kitchen with soup around his mouth)
Caboose: ...Hi.
Jaque: You ate all of Senri’s soup?!
Caboose: ^_^ It was yummy.
Jaque: -_- Why do we keep you around again?
PFf: (bursts through front door) Mac! I brought someone to help!
Faust: (entering behind PFf) Hello.
Blanket mound: XEhaNORT!
Caboose: But Doc already took a look at her.
Jaque: Yeah, and I think he made her worse.
Jebus: Do you think you can help?
Faust: Well, I’ll see what I can do. If you all would kindly leave the room for a few moments?
PFf: Sure. Come on, guys! (they all leave)
Faust: (peeks under blanket) Eliza, hand me my scalpel.

(an hour later. Everyone is in the kitchen, waiting for Mac)
Jaque: What the hell is taking so long? She’s just got a cold or something!
PFf: I’m sure Faust will make her better. Don’t worry.
Mac: (entering kitchen, leaning on Faust and Eliza) Hee! ^_^ Hello everyone!
Jaque: Mac! Are you okay?
Mac: Hee hee....I’m fine as toast!
Jebus: What did you do?
Faust: I replaced a few of her organs, routine stuff. I also gave her some morphine.
Mac: ^_^ I like morphine!
Senri: ...Choo! O_O (glances at Faust) Shit.
