Had she not been stuck there for as long as she was, or been free to come and go as she pleased, she had a feeling she would have quite enjoyed staying in the temple. It wasn't exactly like the infirmary they had back where she had previously lived, but it certainly wasn't bad, in fact it was very similar to the temple the medics had lived at in her first home, the group she had been born to. She wondered how some of her most recent patients were doing right now, she had a few other medics working under her, none who were quite as experienced as her but...she knew she could rely on them. It didn't do much to help the ache in her chest though, that feeling of longing for what she had lost, her job may not have been an easy one, but it had been something she had truly enjoyed, to help and heal, to see her patients walk out of her care, knowing that she had made a difference.
It was getting to be a bit of a routine at this point, one that Wavepool was all too familiar with, considering she had done it day after day for months on end with countless patients herself, her ears flicking atop her head as the medic's voice called out to her. Her eyes brightened as she gazed up from her uneaten meal and up into Roan's own, a soft, only somewhat faked smile forming on her lips, head tilting to the side for a moment as if to ponder his question, though, she already knew exactly how she would answer. "Just fine, same as last time, but thank you for asking." Came her reply, an answer that had hardly changed since she had arrived, and one that she doubted would change at all over the course of her stay here. The quick glance over her the Soothsayer took wasn't missed by the tabby, and it was a struggle to maintain her smile with the knowledge that he obviously knew there was something wrong here. It was unfortunate that there wasn't exactly anything she could do about that faint scent of blood in the air, only pretend it didn't exist, or perhaps claim she opened up one of her cuts on accident, she did have options.
"So, am I free to go yet?" The tabby questioned, hoping that her query would, at the very least, distract him from investigating any further into the scent he had caught, though with luck, today could be the day she could get out of here. "My ribs are well on the mend, the pain is hardly even noticeable at this point, my bruises are all but healed by now, I-" Her next words got caught in her throat as a familiar feeling rose up from her chest, her smile quickly morphing into an expression of discomfort. Her head swiftly turned to the side, a paw coming up to cover her mouth as she gave a short cough into the limb, forcing back the urge to continue hacking up whatever was caught in her lungs as she turned back to Roan, ignoring the continued feeling of rising discomfort that came from the aborted action. "P-Pardon, as I was saying, I'm fine, there's really no need to keep me here any longer." she finished, paw quickly lowered to the floor to prevent the siamese from noticing the red across her white fur, hoping he'd simply come to the conclusion that this short bout of coughing had been nothing more than something being caught in her throat, or a bit of harmless congestion
