Professor Strider, I Would Like You To Make Your Way To The Hospital Wing At Your Earliest Convenience.

[Of course, 'I would like you to' means 'I demand', and 'at your earliest convenience' means 'now'. It isn't often that she puts such force behind her words, but it's not only for an after-match check-up that she wants to see this particular professor. Dolores knows that she involves herself in the mental wellbeing of the students perhaps a little too much, but she rarely feels the need to take it beyond herself. Usually, she is able to make them feel better, but she has never before met a child so hurt and conflicted as Dirk Strider.

It worries her, and more than that, she finds that she is also concerned for his uncle. She and the professor have shared a few conversations, and her opinion of him is good, though she had rather heavily disapproved of his conduct after the match. That, however, is not for her to judge. She's sure he has had enough berating from others for it.

When Bro enters the hospital wing he will find her making one of the beds near to the door, by hand rather than by magic. It's the kind of repetitive, menial task that allows her to get her thoughts together and in order]

[Bro opens his mouth to respond, but something in that look stops him for a moment. The sad look gets to him far more than it should and he feels bad that somehow the conversation ended up turning into one that would make her feel bad.]

I don't believe that. Not for a second.

[Considering their previous conversation on the journal, however brief, he decides it's probably best not to push the issue. He doesn't want to upset her more than he already seems to have done.]

Fine. But honestly I really don't know what's left to talk about.
