iamthefirechild\u00a0said:\u00a0She didn\u2019t want to wake up. Awake was pain, and flame, and trying to do far more than she\u2019d ever been capable of on her best day. She cried out intermittently in unconsciousness, something in her still trying to resist the\u00a0seizures<\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Merlin cursed silently as he reached his and Gaius\u2019 chambers and found a note from Gaius saying that he had to take care of an emergency for one of the visiting nobles. Even with the bits of training he\u2019d had in medical care, he had no idea what to do about seizures. He prayed that Gaius wouldn\u2019t take too long and checked to see if the girl had a concussion\u2014unconsciousness was serious, after all.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Somewhere under the pain and fear, she recognised someone trying to help, and fought the muscle spasms even harder, sliding up through layers of unconsciousness. She couldn\u2019t quite surface, though; just close enough that some of the emotional energy diverted into fire again, limning her fingers in flame.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He jumped back slightly at the sight of the fire.\u00a0Um, I don\u2019t know if you can hear me, but I need you to please put out the fire,\u00a0<\/em>he tried to tell her through telepathy.\u00a0I really don\u2019t want you to either get caught using magic or accidentally light the bed you\u2019re laying in on fire.\u00a0<\/em>Biting his lip, Merlin tried to figure out what to do without panicking. He didn\u2019t have enough control over his magic yet to risk any healing spells.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Oddly, though her hands were swathed in fire, nothing \/caught\/ flame. Slowly, the flames sank into her skin, leaving behind nothing but a memory — and then a muscle in her back contracted, pulling her into an agonising arch for long moments before letting her go. Another cry was torn from her lips while she strained against the spasm, strained to reach the surface of consciousness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
