I lean into my horn. “DON’T BREAK-CHECK ME, ASSHOLE.”
I’m going to gouge out this motherfucker’s eyeball and shove my
cock through their eyesocket. People who break-check like that
need to be fucking dragged out behind the shed and put down like
Old Yeller, except nobody would FUCKING cry because nobody
FUCKING loves them.
I’m so angry about it that I don’t see the asshole zooming up
behind me. You know the type: Weaving in and out of traffic,
zipping ahead, driving like a maniac?
I mean, that’s usually me. But today it’s not. If it had been,
I’d have been way ahead of this red minivan -- and when this
zoomy asshole runs up behind me and wrecks my nice ferrari.
With me in it.
By the time it’s all said and done, my car is wrapped around a
tree, crushed from the side by some idiot in an Audi. The red
minivan is nowhere to be seen. I’m KO in the car; EMTs are on
the scene and the doctor was called in because of an unusual
circumstance:
I’m unscathed. Unconscious, but unscathed. In an accident that
should have killed me twice over.
Fucking massholes.
((Int + Politics + 3 to identify Faye as the mayor’s daughter.))

It's not entirely unheard of around here. People getting hurt,
or rather ending up in circumstances where they should be hurt,
and then come out unscathed. Most people ignore it, maybe
mention it once over lunch, about the lucky car crash victim or
the like. But when you start actually tracking the patterns,
well, you can certainly see that the anomalies aren't that
anomalous.

This one, though, he's sort of stumped on. No signs of injury,
no signs of trauma, but she certainly did get knocked out,
meaning that it's likely not a typical explanation for that sort
of thing. Granted, he has less experience with magical armor
than things like regeneration or self-healing abilities.
She's breathing, check, has a pulse, check, no signs of anything
broken that's simply less obvious.
"Alright, everything's clear at least, get her loaded up, I'll
ride with you," he tells the EMTs.
Once they start to get her out, he then finally gets a good look
at her and recognizes who it is. "Oh I'm sure this won't be any
sort of a problem..." he quietly tells himself.

The other guy in the accident didn’t make it. Pronounced dead on
scene.
The EMTs load me up into the back of the ambulance, and start
driving toward MGH. No sirens, no big rush. It’s a ways there,
too, so it’s not really a surprise to anyone (Well, I mean, in
so much as anyone can know what to expect from this situation)
when my eyes flutter open.
“Ooof.” I groan. I sit up and--
“Ow!”
--accidentally yank the oxygen tubes out of my nose.
“Son of a bitch!”

Gavin leans over as he notices her coming to, though the EMTs
are ultimately the ones trying to calm her down, get her to sit
still, and of course be sure she doesn't pull anything else off
herself.
"Hey now, it's alright, calm down," he says, in as soothing a
tone as he can manage in a moving ambulance. "Focus on my voice
Ms. Rittenhouse," he continues, "Do you remember what happened?
The crash?" he asks.
At the same time, now that she's awake, he's taking another
look, just to be sure there's nothing he missed, but he doubts
he's going to pick up anything notable at this point.

I take a second to get my bearings. The fuck did I just yank out
of my nose?
An oxygen tube?
I look around. I’m in the back of an ambulance. There’s a
doctor. And that’s when it hits me:
Ms. Rittenhouse.
Great. I can already hear my dad saying I better be on good
behavior. That the doctor is only doing their job. That I
shouldn’t be rude. I should be a lady. I should do this, I
shouldn’t do that. Blah blah fucking blah.
“What? I…”
Pause.
“That fucking minivan hit me, didn’t it? I knew it!”
I don’t remember. Obviously.

Well, she's lucid at least. Mostly. Definitely not quite as
disoriented as a car crash victim should be, even if she doesn't
remember the specifics. That's a... good sign?
"I didn't see a minivan there, but that's something the police
will probably want to talk to you about," he mentions. Not the
best thing he could say to her, he imagines, but eventually she
was going to realize the other sirens following them were indeed
cops.
He eventually puts a hand up to try and urge the EMTs to back
off a little, "I think she's fine for now, give her a moment."
Then turning back to her. "It's a bit miraculous, is the thing.
You came out nearly unscathed, other than the fact that you were
unconscious. You're very lucky," he tells her; there's a slight
hint to his tone that he suspects it's something other than
luck.

“What can I say, I’m privileged,” I grunt, trying to deflect it
all with a joke.
What am I supposed to say? Oh, it was probably Ganax, the Lord
of Hate? He has a hardon for not letting me fucking die, you
see.
Somehow I feel like that would just land me in the funny farm.
And while that WOULD be a blow to dear old dad’s career, he’d
probably just play it for sympathy and use me to his advantage.
Ugh. The very thought of him doing that makes me fucking sick.
“Look is this going to take long?” I look out the back window.
Yep, those are cops. Goddamnit. Yes. The answer is yes, this is
going to take long.
“You said it yourself. Miraculous. I’m fine, right?”

She is very much not convincing him.
"It's out of my hands. We'll bring you in to run some basic
tests, to be sure we didn't miss anything, and since a vehicular
collision was involved, the police are likely going to have
follow-ups once we give them the all clear," he explains calmly
to her.

Leaning in, then, as if he needs to take a look in her eyes
(light in-hand despite the EMTs already doing this test), he
instead whispers to her.
"Or, if you're willing to tell me why you're actually alright, I
can get you out of this so your father doesn't get involved,"
quietly said before he pulls back with a nod as if whatever he
was looking for was fine.
It doesn't take the most insightful person in the world to
recognize daddy issues, let alone for the angry daughter of the
mayor. He watches her for a moment, for some sign of
affirmation. The hospital sure is coming up quickly...

Fuck. He knows something’s up.
And he’s got me figured out, too. Knows exactly what I want and
is ready to offer it to me. Goddamnit.
I nod, gently, and then I shoot a glance at the attendant EMT as
if to say the doctor is going to have to wait for privacy. I
have no idea what I’m going to tell him, but it’s gotta be
something and anything I DO fucking say can’t be public. See the
aforementioned funny farm as to why.
We arrive at the hospital and I’m unloaded into the ER. There’s
a ton of people in, so I don’t know why I get special treatment
other than Dad being who Dad is -- which just irritates me on
principle. Preferential treatment is such a pain in my fucking
dick.
Eventually, though, I’m alone in a room with the doc.
“You’re not gonna believe me,” I say blatantly. “And it’s better
that you don’t know. But if you CAN keep dad out of this, I
guess I don’t have a choice…”

The Doctor nods back at her; he doesn't expect her to have a
full-on whispered conversation with him here about the darkest
mysteries of her soul.
With that all set, he tells the driver some specific
instructions about who to contact in the ER and which entrance
to use.
Oddities like that continue, Faye might notice. He's quick to
get the attention of a couple of specific orderlies who had been
busy when others were right there. He spoke to a nurse off to
the side instead of right in front of him. He waited to talk to
an administrator who was busy when another was free. And so on.
It means the room they end up in is empty, and there's no chart
sent in with her.
As she gets into the expected schpiel about it, he raises a
hand. "I'm not going to believe you because it has something to
do with magic or monsters. You developed some psychic power to
regenerate, learned a magical spell that actually works, or
maybe you have some secretive patron you met at a club who gave
you some sort of 'gift,'" he cuts that all off a bit.
"It's better that I don't know, but trust me, that ship sailed.
I'm in it. I have my own secrets, Ms. Rittenhouse. So go ahead,
I'm not about to induct you into any asylum for whatever you
tell me. If it's the truth, of course."
He tries to make it sound like he'll just know if she's lying.
