Waking up is weird to Moxxie. Well, it felt weird at times. Weird or drenched in sweat from nightmares. When he was passed out from pain or knock out it was different. Same with those naps.

Now, waking up after being poison from a bug bite was exhaustion. That what it felt like pure exhaustion as his eye lids open.

He just stared at the ceiling for a while. A little blurry from his vision but can wasn't as bad in the past. Not wanting to move but knows he has too. Turn his head slightly and just stared.

"Hello Moxxie." Dr. Medea smile at the imp. His voice was very quiet.

"Why?" Why you so damn close.

"Too be fair I was checking up on you. Good timing. Here you go."

Moxxie stared at the outlines of familiar glasses and reach out to take them. Felt, sluggishly slow when he did this but didn't let it bother him. Put them on but barely move besides move his head again. Then he realizes who was in the corner.

It was Maria and Striker. The pair of them passed out on the chairs. It was a bit funny to see of the height difference. He remembers one time how Madre was taller of the pair till Striker grew height. Now can really see it as Striker grew a bit extra. The pair heads were resting against the wall. Striker hat on his lap, some point took off his coat. Madre clothing look the usual besides the hair that was cut.

"I should mo- "Try to sit back up but the Doc hand on his shoulder and push him down slightly.

"They are fine. Them and your buddies were about to rip me apart to not stay here while you rest. Got yourself quite a group." Dr. Medea chuckle.

"Where?" Where the others?

"They went out a bit to get some late breakfast. Been staying here or at your Madre place. A lot of back and forth to keep an eye on you. How your right arm feel?"

Moxxie blink and look at it. He forgot about it actually. "Why is it in a cast?"

"Because your bones actually got broken. Yes, they are healing but have to play the part you know."

"Oh." Right, those mandibles did crush down very hard. "How long was I out and what happened?"

"Four days. Well, Striker woke me up as he broke into my home. He yelling as he held your pass out form. To wake me up. Also, you as well since you passed out. Good thing my home the health clinic. Told me about familiar creature that you told me about. Then showed me your arm. I'll need to ask you how that specifically happen but later. I had to do what I can and make it look like I was working as he wouldn't leave the room. Stop, the infection of your arm along with a fever you were getting. Then your Madre arrived. One of your comrades called her. Then they arrived your boss, the Millie girl and their sibling, a hound girl, and well a few others. At that point I had to kick everyone out as I couldn't work with all the screaming, yelling and useful intel thrown around. Then well this next part you will have to play along."

"Huh?"

"You see after you got better after the second day. No, fever and the infection went down. Look like you were destroying the poison. Stolas arrived and wanted to see you. He checks you and wants to know how I fix it. I told him that 'Puppet' came when I made everyone go. They remember you when the bug slammed you into a wall. He destroyed the poison and 'told' me to tell Stolas if he comes. That he will call back. I just stop the fever. Stolas believed it but you will have to check your phone later."

"You are one life saver Doc." That took a lot of relief off his shoulders. No, one didn't put two and two together. Yet.

"Well, it's part of the job or else ill lose my license." He chuckles.

"Would still do it."

"Very true. The others had mixed feelings but please you were better. But the sleep began to worry us."

"Madre." Moxxie looked at her and cursed softly at himself for worrying her.

"Barely left your side. None of them did really." He sighs and clean his own glasses. "What happen to get that bite."

"I got distracted when I was chasing the bug. Bit me till I had to punch it to let go. Felt. Nothing at first but to just get those things out of here. Destroyed them. Then we'll try to wave it off till hopefully the next day to get at Madre home. Yet wasn't meant to be." Moxxie sighs wearily. "Now have everyone taking care of my ass."

"Probably will get your ass kick too."

"Yippie."

Answer a few extra questions for the Doc till he had to go. Got the clinic to open after all. But to call if he needs help with anything. Along with to try not to break his arm. Moxxie was soon alone, well the only one awake, and think for a long time. Already planning ahead. Wanted to take his phone out from Stolas but weary about one of the two waking up.  

He glances at his arm in the cast. So, he can't use this arm. So, will be put on hold to do any kind of Fault work. Well, he can just have to hide it from Millie and Ivy on why their stuff already made. Now for IMP don't know what Blitz would do. How long does an arm usually heal? At least one that should be normal. Normal for Imps. For, Blitz he remembers was five weeks. For himself like a couple of days.  But would have to pretend for six or seven weeks. That's going to be so annoying to pretend. Maybe can bring it down a few weeks from 'Puppet' healing.

Stop his thinking process when he heard some sound. Move his head. "Madre?"

Maria woke up and was rubbing her eyes. Then she heard her child voice. Look at a pair of tired eyes at the bed and walk over to his side. Smile down tiredly and sit on the bed to pet his hair. "I wish I can ground your crazy ass."

"So, sad." Moxxie snorts tiredly. "I'm sor- "

"No, sorry. Will talk about it later. You need to rest and relax. Especially, with your broken arm."

"It's fine."

"No, grumbling." Ruffle the hair softly. "You got some crazy, mess up coworkers. Glad you found them."

"I can't tell if your adding Millie or not in the mix."

Maria snickered softly. "Ivy will be pleased your awake been texting me on your health."

"You two are too protective."

"Oh, please. I'm a cool Mom."

"Cool?"

"Watch it."

Moxxie snickered at her pout look. "You need a bath."

"You're no better."

"Madre go wash up and eat. I'll be fine."

"I know you are but it's the others that a different story."

"Their crazy but not too crazy."

"Your boss."

"Blitz is a different crazy but not cruel."

"If you say so."

Moxxie glance at Striker direction who was still resting. "Did you two um talk?"

"We did." May or may not almost got in a fight with him. Just for putting them out of the loop all that happen. Yet couldn't be too furious at the reason. Just very alert around him. But he doesn't need to worry about it. She leans down and nuzzle the top of his head. "Don't worry about it. Okay?"

"Fine." For now.

"I'm going to go get us some food. No, buts."

"Dangit."

Maria snickered and nuzzled her child again. "I'll be back."

Moxxie nods and watch her leave till her tail closes the door. Let out another sigh and glance at Striker direction. Whelp got to lay here and do nothing.

Five minutes later.

Striker got hit with a pillow. He sprung up from the chair and tore the pillow in half when his other hand grabs his dagger. Feathers flying in the air. He calms down till realized the situation. His ringed eyes snapped at Moxxie direction.

"Are you for real Critter!"

Worth it.
