Grasshopper 3, The Incident [Narrative]
It'd been a rough few weeks. He'd made a decision to end his relationship with Ignis only to have the man disappear. He had to watch the man depart on platform day and hold his child as she mourned the loss. His other kid, Peter, was a mess with losing May and still not over Gwen leaving- not that he blamed the boy at all. Wei and his son leaving had been hard to watch too.

So, he coped as he always coped- by working. The pressure to find a cure for a boy who deserved to have his life back spurred him on as well. Working closely with Peter and sometimes Conan, he knew they were getting close. With just a little more coffee, a little more bourbon, he was sure they were going to get that breakthrough.

He'd woken up early and returned to his work. In a beaker, he added a chemical compound he'd created over the last few days and watched the reaction. He winced as the reaction kicked up an awful smell. Turning to write some notes, he felt the room start to spin. The coffee cup fell out of his hand and broke on the floor. Coughing, he couldn't catch his breath. Putting a hand to his chest, he felt pain lance through his body stemming from his heart. Just when he hit the floor, he didn't know but the world turned black.

The Rescue [Closed to Kitty, the Doctor, and whoever else she might need (medical people, idk?)]

When Kitty finds him, he's on the floor barely breathing. It's not quite a heart attack but the symptoms are really similar. A few of the coffee cup shards dug into his skin when he fell. He needs help and fast!

Grasshopper 3 (late) and Grasshopper 4, Medical Room [OTA]

He spent the majority of the day asleep. Slowly sometime that evening, Tony woke feeling weak and disoriented. He groaned finding himself in the medical room. That was never a good sign.

[ooc: Feel free to come bug him after he's woken up.]

She takes the ring from him, quietly staring down at it for a moment or two as it lies in her hands.

Then Madoka slowly nods.

"Thank you, dad.. I'll make sure to keep it safe." There's no way she could lose something that important, after all. And it'll be a nice reminder of Tony - and even a bit of Ignis - while she's out on the mission.

The girl puts it in her pocket, but mostly so she can move to instead wrap her arms around her dad in a hug. She's trying really hard to be careful though, she doesn't want to make his hurt worse! (Although it's not like Madoka has much in the way of physical strength to begin with..)

"I'll still miss though, dad. I know I'll be okay, and I know you'll be okay.. But I'll miss you anyway while I'm gone."

It's definitely the right thing to do. If he hadn't pulled back first, Madoka wouldn't have been so sure if she would have been able to do it.. After all, she also doesn't want to let go. Even though she's made her mind up that she definitely wants to go along on the mission, it's so hard to say goodbye to her dad. Even if it's just for a week or two.

It's why, even as he pulls back and the hug ends, Madoka still sits there for a moment more. She just silently stares at him, a smile on her face that's genuine, but that also has something that's just a little bit sad in it. But after a moment she manages to pull herself together enough to move off the bed.

"Okay. I'll make sure to do something cool enough that you can brag about it to everyone."

.. well, she's not so sure if she'll manage to do that, but.. managing to stay alive is also pretty cool, right? Clearly.

"Bye, dad.. See you again soon." It's so tempting to linger, but Madoka quickly turns around and leaves the room before she won't ever be able to pull herself out of there. She knows they'll be reunited soon enough - so she just has to focus on that.
