#sick in public

[jurassicsickfics]

Little something that came to me in the middle of the night so pardon if it's a little out there, but I found it adorable.

A sick celebrity having a public event that they know they can't get out of, so they ask their assistant if they know a way to get through it without puking everywhere and embarrassing themselves. Assistant tells them not to worry, that they've got a trick up their sleeve.

Later, during the event, sick celeb realizes they have to throw up so as soon as they can get away from the cameras and paparazzi, they rush to assistant. Assistant gives them a wink and hugs them tight to their chest. Celeb wonders what they're doing but when they look down they see that assistant has attached a barf bag to the inside of their shirt/dress.

"Genius!" Celeb thinks, as they lean in and puke into the bag, passing it off as a casual hug and then act like nothing happened.

You don't wish your disability was worse or more visible, you wish your disability was taken seriously. Please stop confusing the two, I guarantee you would not get the support you need JUST by being more severe or more visible. Please listen to visibly disabled people when we tell you it isn't better on our side

having a great time continuing to love sabrina and enjoy her music despite people deciding she's reached her limit as Successful Woman Who Is Everywhere and it's now time for the obligatory This Woman Sucks Actually And We Don't Want To See Her Anymore follow up stage

they should invent a transmasculinity that doesn't come with a weird guy following you to the parking lot elevator at 3am demanding to know whether you're a man or a woman that'd be epic

Oh so YOU GUYS can monologue for hours but my man yorick tries to have a nice conversation after regaining his ability to speak AND YOU GANG UP ON HIM???? I see how it is!!! The double standards are crazy!!!

“I’m sorry, excuse me, I’ve just… I’ve got to use the bathroom.”

It’s always said with equal parts urgency, embarrassment, and discomfort.

Add in belly rumbles or a hand resting/rubbing the upset tummy. Plus the occasional stifled belch.

The surprised or sympathetic pause and then the “usual” reactions to such a confession.

Usually the sick person blushes, but sometimes they’re so pale they only manage to briefly close their eyes in embarrassment (or to allow a wave of nausea or lower belly pressure pass), only before desperately looking around for the most private, readily available restroom.

Unmasked and making everyone sick.

I’ve been hearing about people showing up to work sick, testing positive for covid, and not wearing a mask and working sick, despite the CDC’s recommendation that people “Stay home and away from others”, and even after feeling better they say to mask when resuming normal activities.

CDC - Respiratory Virus Guidance March 1, 2024 Preventing Spread of Respiratory Viruses When You're Sick When you go back to your normal activities, take added precaution over the next 5 days, such as taking additional steps for cleaner air, hygiene, masks, physical distancing, and/or testing when you will be around other people indoors. This is especially important to protect people with factors that increase their risk of severe illness from respiratory viruses. Keep in mind that you may still be able to spread the virus that made you sick, even if you are feeling better. You are likely to be less contagious at this time, depending on factors like how long you were sick or how sick you were.

All year long I keep hearing stories about people who are actively sick and coughing and refusing to mask in confined spaces like subway trains and crowded workplaces. And even people refusing to mask when asked to by trapped elderly people in airplanes and healthcare settings. This is a very dicey situation with the coming American public health dark age and the threat of bird flu and mask bans.

"Here," Danny slides his business card over, and Victor fries takes it.

"Contact my parents, go to Amity Park. They can explain and answer every question you have, Mr. Fries."

Victor, still in his suit and staring, frowns. "What about Nora?"

"I can promise you, she will be alright. I'll give you daily news of her condition and make sure everything is on top condition."

Mr. Fries hesitates, glancing at his frozen wife. He contemplates it, the decision and its cost if he were to trust.

"Nora can't handle transportation in these conditions, but with me here, she will get enough ectoplasm exposure that will make her liminal." Danny explains carefully, eyes crinkling as he looks at the man.

"She will turn into a ghost and come back. Anger may be stronger than love, but love is one of the main emotions one will form in the Infinity Realms."

Victor exhales shakily, breath tinted white from the cold.

"The same will happen to me if I depart to amity park?"

"Yes." The halfa nods. "You will be exposed to ectoplasm like every other civilian there, but unlike here with Nora, my parents will make sure you understand every little thing about this process."

"And if she does come back as a ghost... how long...?"

Danny bites his lip. "I'm not sure. Once her ghost forms, she will be under my protection, many know to not go against me. She will learn of her new culture and then of the traditions."

He explains slowly, making sure Mr. Fries is concentrated and on line with every word he tells.

"Her memories will slowly trickle in, but she will remember and most likely go and find you."

Victor, the ever careful man he is, tilts his head. "How will she come back?"

"My parents again, they have a portal. She will be led to it by associates and friends safely. You will meet her at Amity Park, that's why I suggested moving in the first place. She won't be strong enough to leave amity at first."

"Why me? Why us? This program is not public, and you can not possibly be joking either."

"Valid," Danny shrugs at his gaze. "Call it fondess or maybe attachment, but Nora really grew on me despite... not being very expressive."

—

(They talked for so so long, until Victor Fries aka Mr. Freeze finally agreed and left.

Danny gave them the privacy needed for their temporary goodbye, he would help them, he'd promised so.

And Phantom doesn't break promises.

So he helps Mr. Fries escape Gotham, made sure he arrived at the meeting place with Jazz, and gave updates on Nora in her cryochamber.

He would buy flowers for her, talk, throw jokes, despite no answer.

Aunt Nora's life would flicker at a time, and sooner than later, Danny knew her time was up.

He left when Victor came back, got her out of her sleep, and held her for her last moments. He was here when Victor departed again, ready to prepare his new apartment at Amity for Nora's arrival.

He felt unbridled happiness when the news came back months later that Nora managed to get back. She became a winter spirit like he is, more alive than she was in the last live.

Danny was happy for the Fries family.)

feel like since covid first hit , so many people forget basic germ theory , sanitation , and public health , all in effort to own those libs or flip off government whatever - to be honest , even some doctors get too lax .

realistically should wear masks if must go out when sick , no matter what that sickness is , to try and contain spread . as well , do not cough or sneeze out into open air , as much as possible . understand sometimes these things come on too suddenly to pull up elbow , especially with full hands , but even some containment is better than none at all .

what is mild sickness for one person can really ruin weeks , months , if not life for someone else , and there is no way to know who that will be , so please be courteous for sake of all .
