[Liam is off screen coughing for a moment before he leans his face back into view with a blanket wrapped around his shoulders tightly. He looks and sounds decidedly unwell., but also a bit panicked.]

Guys, this is like, really important you gotta listen to me. I think I might have bird flu. That's really dangerous right? So--

[He turns away to cough.]

So we should like, quarantine the mountain! And if you've been near me or Julien you should stay at home for a while so it doesn't spread.

[He reaches out from under the blanket and hold the laptop by the monitor, as if taking someone's shoulders, and looks into the camera seriously with red rimmed eyes.]

Trust me, I know what I'm talking about I'm a prince.

I have some. I'll bring it over, and some soup. [Shame he has no nettles here, and it's not worth going back to Locke to harvest some from his patio. Maybe if Liam's 'flu' (and Gabriel finds himself rather unkindly thinking it's nothing more than a cold) continues he will.] I can leave it by your door if you're really that concerned.

The Elvenking? King of all elves, do you think? [He sounds a touch unsure about that, mulling over what he knows.]

[Liam looks unsure about the idea of Gabriel coming over.]

I don't want you to get sick, though... wear a mask?

...Maybe, that's what it sounds like. I have no idea though, that's all I know.

[Gabriel holds back the urge to roll his eyes. Really, Liam, Gabriel's glad that you care, but he can look after himself.]

If you'll allow me to come and look after you I'll wear a mask, but I won't need one from the other side of a door.

Have you remembered anything else lately? [Gabriel asks, trying to distract Liam from feeling miserable.]

[Liam pauses a moment then hesitantly nods.]

...Okay.

[At the question, he looks up in thought.]

I found out about this guy named Gandalf, but... I don't know if I want to talk about that. It's part of the bad echo. Other than that, I got a cool arrow holder to go with my bow.

[Gabriel takes a deep breath and for a moment his eyes go glazed at the now familiar feeling of an echo hits him. Give him a moment to come back to his senses and regather himself, remember what he was doing and what they were saying, and then he'll reply with:]

Gandalf? An old man, a wizard? Pointy hat and staff, long beard? And... and a silver scarf. [Whoops, sorry, normally he wouldn't bring it up when Liam said that he didn't want to talk about it, but with the new memory still fresh it's hard not to.]

[Liam knows that look, but it takes a moment for it to register.]

Whoops. Sorry for the echo... Yeah that's the guy.

[For a moment he looks to the side. The memory was uncomfortable.]

I think he was a friend... but... I don't know.

[Gabriel waves a hand, and then gives a low chuckle.] This one's much preferable to the last one that you managed to trigger. [No balrogs here.]

I think I was on some kind of... council with him.

Ah - but I should get you that soup. [And change the subject because Liam is clearly uncomfortable.]

[Liam wonders what the last one was, but decides maybe it's better not to think about it too hard.]

Huh.

[He nods reluctantly.]

Yeah... okay. Just bring a mask. You never know... I appreciate it, man.

I'll be up as soon as I can.

[It's about twenty minutes to half an hour before he knocks on Liam's door and then lets himself in. He doesn't actually own a mask, but he has a bandanna around his neck and a tray in his hands, carrying all the things that he promised.]

Are you really going to make me wear this?

[Liam had gotten up to answer the door before Gabe walked in. He... probably looks far more unwell than you thought he would. It's obviously more than a cold, since he's clinging to the wall to stay steady.]

Yeah, definitely. Just to be safe.

[He has to stand there and cough minute, Gabriel, talk to you in a sec.]

[If only his modelling agency could see him now, they'd be crying. But he does pull the bandanna up once he's put the tray down, if nothing else to stop Liam from worrying. Although now that he's with him, he's concerned to see how bad he actually is.]

Get back into bed. I could have let myself in, you know. [And as he says it, he moves closer, ready to support Liam if he needs to.]

[Liam holds up a hand to stop him from getting too close.]

Just dizzy, one sec.

[He makes it back to bed okay and pulls the blankets up high to his chin.]

Thanks for doing this, man.

I was hardly going to leave you. [He watches Liam retreat to bed worriedly, before crossing over to the bed and setting the tray down for him.]

You need to keep drinking. If you run out of water, call one of us to get some more. I don't care if you're worried about infections, it's more important that you drink.

...Yeah. Yeah I will.

[Liam grimaces as he shifts a little so that he's more upright, and pokes his arms out of his blankets. There is, thankfully, a pitcher of water and a glass nearby, but it's almost empty.]

You have that echinacea? I'll take whatever else you have to throw at me, too, man.

[He did trust Gabriel to have more natural remedies, after all.]
