The Doctor is in the house...

What does a Doctor have to do to get a drink around here?

[He pours them each a measure and clinks his glass to Hawkeye's before answering.]

Afghanistan. Sand, sun, and automatic weapons. [John takes a swallow of his drink.] Not fun but never boring. [It's probably the nicest thing he could say about it.]
nursewrangler: (Huh?)

[personal profile] nursewrangler 2013-02-11 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
I would have paid for boring....

[Hawk was about to take a drink when something that John said sunk it...]

Wait... Afghanistan? What are you guys doing out there?
flatmatewatson: (orange vest)

That's exactly what most people were saying. Honestly I'm not sure myself in the end. [Another swallow] Got myself shot, I suppose I could say I was over there to do that.
nursewrangler: (Huh?)

Wait wait wait... hold on a sec. Let me rephrase the question.


Is it a state secret? I wasn't aware that they were sending our boys down to that part of the world. The Korean war just ended for cryin' out loud!

[Then Hawk immediately switched to Doctor-mode...] Oh yeah? Any detrimental effects?
flatmatewatson: (contemplative)

[personal profile] flatmatewatson 2013-02-11 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
[He rubs at his shoulder as if remembering when he was shot.] No, it healed well enough. A twinge now and again if the weather's bad but nothing more. [We'll just leave out the part where he had a cane for a few months.]

[John's brow furrows] Korean war ended awhile ago, I think. [Er, mun isn't quite sure when either :S]

How about you? Any injuries?
nursewrangler: (Working)

Awhile ago? July 27th, 1953 is the new Christmas for most Americans....And that was only last year.

[Hawk waved a hand at the next question...]

Nothing physical.
flatmatewatson: (apprehensive)

[personal profile] flatmatewatson 2013-02-11 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
....are you sure about no injuries? [Because that was definitely the wrong year.] Maybe a head wound or something small? [Amnesia, perhaps? John's still thinking like a doctor.]
nursewrangler: (Chat)

[personal profile] nursewrangler 2013-02-11 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Naw, no injuries.

[Hawk tries to wave him off, but he manages to mumble..]

Just some good ol' fashioned PTSD...[Throw in a nervous breakdown and a bad drinking habit and there we find our problem.]

[He heard that...and nods, taking another swallow of his drink.] Well, we all get that. One way or another. [After the war was probably harder than during, going back to a 'normal' life.]

I have a psychsomatic limp that came up after I got home. Took awhile to convince myself that it wasn't real. [Sherlock helped with that.]

[Hawk regards John...

Psychosomatic limp?]

Oh yeah? That's too bad... What did you do? How did it go away?
