6th Flight [Video/ Action for travel buddies] [Backdated to the morning of the 4th]

[The 'gear has a strange angled shot of Carol's back that seems to indicate a rather small camera man (or electric flying squirrel). Carol's hands are on her hips]

Mar-Vell, come on, I don't want to put you back in your ball.

[The 'gear bounces a little as the shot moves to take in Carol's side. In front of her, blocking the door, is her Dragonair who only coos in response to his trainers words.]

I'm fine, I promise. Now let me out, I have to go warm up.

[Mar-Vell just coos again, refusing to move. Even through the less than quality picture it is easy to see that Carol does not look fine. Her hair is pulled back from her face, revealing paler than usual skin already slick with sweat.]

[Tony and Pep make their way over, Tony's fiddle with his gear, his other hand in his pocket. He saw the feed and that's why he's here.]

Okay. If you know me at all like you say, then when you hear this next part you should know it's bad.

You should be in bed.

[Carol's eyebrows can not go any further up her forehead when Tony says those words. On the one hand she knows she must actually look like hell for Tony Stark to say that.

On the other she's being stupidly stubborn at the moment and not wanting to admit that she can actually get sick again.]

I'm fine, Tony; just didn't sleep well last night.

[Tony looks up from the gear with an eyebrow raised ever so slightly.]

Ever heard the phrase "Can't con a con man"? Because right now it seems twofold some kind of weight here. Because with both of you out of action, I'm in charge. Besides, Pep likes fussing over everyone.

She can fuss all she wants after the tournament.

[Carol gives him a grin]

Come on, you said you'd cheer me on.

Thing with Pep, you can't reschedule her worry. She's like her namesake like that. Makes her kind of pushy really.

[He looks down at her, as she stands just beside him worrying at her paws while watching Carol.]

I never said I wouldn't be cheering. I just think, some rest, advil, and passions is in store for you right now. Well at least what passes for passions. Or doctor phil, all afternoon TV is terrible and good for when you're at...

[He gives her another appraising look.]

Death's door.

It's not so much reschedule as temporarily postponing.

[Carol smiles at Pepper]

I'm fine, Pep, don't worry. I've done more with worse.

[Mar-Vell coos and rubs up against Carol side.]

Honestly, I'm not at death's door.

Three to one means you're outvoted, so at least sit down, have some coffee and a panini or something.

[Her voice is barely a mutter]

I can't.

[He tilts his head slightly as his eyebrow also raises]

What do you mean. Can't?

[She grimaces, knowing exactly how he's going to react to this]

My stomach's been turning all morning.

[He tilts his head a little then runs a hand through his hair.]

Yeah, that could make things a little awkward I guess. Though really, food and liquids are probably going to make you feel a little more, uh, settled or something.

I'll munch on some crackers on the way there.

You're still coming, right?

Well I did promise, and being here I can't exactly put things of while I work on cars or my suits. So you bet I'm going to be there.

Wait, is this a nervous thing. The not eating. Because I really didn't think you're the type.

Can't be a nervous thing if I'm not nervous.

You want to walk to the stadium with me?

If that was true, then psychologists, and psychiatrists wouldn't be a thing.

But yeah, sure, I can walk with you.

[He nods and just starts walking, knowing she'll walk with him.]

[Carol's match was disastrous. Luckily Katara was able to tell pretty easily that her opponent was very sick and knocked her out of the ring as gently as she could. A Blissy helped Carol into the medical tent and gave her some water which she then promptly threw up into a bucket the shrewd pokemon had left by her bed.

Yeah, she's a mess. Also grumpy. Very grumpy. Carol Danvers doesn't get sick. Ever. ~~except apparently now~~

[Tony strolls into the tent, hands in pockets tinted sunnies on, looking around before heading over to Carol.]

Well that was. Well I'm going to go with different, seems more diplomatic. Can't, say that's a good look for you either.

[He looks around the tent with distaste, he's never enjoyed hospital like places, too much hygiene, too much order. It makes his skin crawl.]

Next time, maybe when the always squishy mortal says you look like hell. You listen to the always squishy mortal. I'm more than just a pretty face.

Redundant question, but how do you feel?

I feel like I wish your shoes were more expensive so throwing up on them might mean more.

[Carol groaned and rolled onto her side. She tried to muster the energy to glare at Tony, but only got about halfway there.]

I know, I know. You were right.

You know, you haven't been the first person to say that.

[Tony just looks at her half strength glare with a mild look.]

Of course I am, I'm a genius, it's kind of the whole point of our being. They looking after you?

I'm sure I won't be the last.

[Carol just groans]

They keep bringing me crackers to eat.

I sure hope not. It's part of my angle.

I don't class that as looking after someone. Last time I had to be in hospital... Well before Afghanistan. I had a personal nurse, with Happy bringing the burgers.

[He looks around to see whose eye he has to catch to get Carol more attention.]

I'm fine, Tony. There isn't much they can do for me right now.

[Other than eat crackers that she throws up a few minutes later.]

They called a doctor, he'll be here any minute. It's just a flu bug.

Perhaps it isn't my place to say, but you don't look well. Your pokémon may have a point.

[Carol looks down at the gear, seeming to notice it running for the first time. She gently takes it amid squeaks of protest from Blitz.]

Thank you for your concern, but I'm fine. I've done more with worse.

Be that as it may, your pokémon are clearly concerned. In my experience, they tend to have fairly good instincts. It might be worth it to reconsider going out.

I really appreciate your concern, but I'll be just fine. I might not do as well in the tournament as if I had a full night's rest, but I won't die or anything.

[ she frowns, very clearly concerned- she's a bleeding heart, this one ]

Fighting in the tournament seems ill-advised. I fought in it last year, and it was rough going.

I'll be fine. Trust me.

Actually, speaking of the tournament, I really need too go.

I... all right. I've said my piece, as have your pokémon, in their own way. Good luck, and don't push yourself too hard.

[...Congratulations, you've made one Winry Rockbell worried.]

I don't think you should put them back into their balls, when they're just trying to help.

[Carol frowns]

I don't want to, but I need to get down to the arena so I can warm up before the tournament.

[Winry frowns too.]

It's not my business, of course, but you kind of look like you should be resting instead of doing that.

I'll rest before my match.

Speaking of, I really need to go.

[...How come she always finds stubborn people like this?]

I really hope you do, because that could be a really bad situation for you.

[She's not done yet! Just checking if they let her go before anything else.]

[Hey girl. Meet another girl, who -- would actually say the same things as you if she was in your position. But when she's not? Well, seeing that kind of behavior kind of gets her worrier side showing. This isn't going to end well, right?]

Or you could stay in and not worry about what happens on the outside, when you clearly have other things to worry about.

[Shaking her head, picking up the watch from Blitz]

There's nothing to worry about here. I just didn't sleep well last night and they're all freaking out about it.

Did that work to convince yourself? Because it doesn't work very well against a girl with healing powers.

[Though she's not freaking out either. Actually, you're kind of free to do whatever you want in her opinion, she'd really do the same in that situation.]

...Not that I have the powers here, but you really look more than just tired.

I don't need to convince myself. I know my own body.

[Well, she's pretty sure she knows her own body. It's difficult gaging things without the enhancements she had back home, but she's sure she'd know it if she couldn't fight.]

I had a bit of an upset stomach, but it's nothing too big, just ate something that didn't agree with me.

I seriously hope you do.

[Coming from a girl, who knows her own body too... Well, usually anyway. After all that training she's done to stay in shape even without her powers? Yup, she's pretty confident she knows her body even without things from back home.]

Okay. [Still not completely convinced, but anyway.] I hope you feel better soon. Maybe we'll see at the tournament, since I'll be there too.
