[Powder Miner]

Panacea finds him hauling a boulder to a stock pile, chanting a work-tune.

[Telgin]

She flags him down with a wave of her hoof.  "Powder!" she calls to him, trotting closer.  "There's somepony who was asking for you.   In... the hospital."

[Powder Miner]

Panacea finds him hauling a boulder to a stock pile.

[Powder Miner]

"Huh." Powder parks the boulder in an out-of-the-way spot before moving toward the hospital. "Who?"

[Khenal]

"Well I probably wont get deported. When Virtue realized that I'd be executed for my crimes she got all sad about it, and told me that she wouldn't send me off. But then again, I am currently chained to a bed so I guess I might."

"Um... I don't think this will change her mind, Jaxler.  What, uh... are you going to do after they unchain you?"

[jaxler]

"I'm gonna go binge drinking for the next couple days, and after that I honestly don't know what I'm gonna do. Its not like I have anything to do during the day anymore."

[Khenal]

"Join the militia?  Become a hunter?"

[jaxler]

"I honestly hate killing things, and the militia is full of ponies that really don't like. I'd ether get put into a group with Sarrisa or stiletto... no offense. And it's not like I have any special talent or anything aside from shooting things until they stop moving and taking pony's stuff, both of which I really don't like."

[Khenal]

"No offense taken, Jaxler.  I know you don't like her, and I appreciate that you don't talk ill of her around me.  Um, maybe learn a craft?  Stone or wood, or maybe join me in the furnaces?"

[jaxler]

Jaxler shrugs as best he can in the chains.

"I guess, I used to be pretty good at whittling. Maybe I could try my hoof at woodcrafting and I suppose I could try to help with the furnaces."

[Khenal]

"Um... can I get you anything?  Food or a drink, something to, uh, read?"

[jaxler]

"Well I do need something. You see that bucket of water over there... spill it, then offer to refill it, but instead of going and filling it with water fill it with the strongest drink you can fine, and don't let Panacea know whats in it."

[Khenal]

"Uh... I think she'd be able to smell the alcohol.  Anything else?"

[jaxler]

"Not really..."

[Khenal]

I sit next to his bed and give Jaxler a small smile.

"How about some company?"

We talked for a while, oddly happy even with my friend chained down.  Eventually, he drifts off to sleep, needing to rest more from his concussion.  I quietly make my exit afterwards, wondering if there's anything that I could do to make him feel better.
