Nightly Entertainment

[stillbecoming]

This resurrection of Nightly Entertainment is due to my selfless decision that the time had come, and unrelated to the fact that I'm stuck at my desk writing final papers.

If your character is capable of nausea, how do they deal with it? How do they treat stomach-flu or analogous viruses? If they're not capable of nausea, how do they react when it happens to other people?

Let's see, so, Melpomene basically gets sick for under a day, and then whatever was in there purges itself. So she doesn't really get serious viruses. However, she can experience the effects for a full 24 hours, if they start exactly at midnight.

Lamia, I don't think, is capable of any sort of human feeling whatsoever-- and that includes nausea.

Dr. Horrible just sits on his sofa and secretly wishes his mother were there, but instead tries to think comforting thoughts about bank robberies and nailing Captain Hammer to the wall.

Due to the point where Gmail chose to cut off the sentence, I did not read "nailing Captain Hammer to the wall" quite the way you intended. I think.

So Melpomene always gets a 24 hour flu type experience? Not bad!

YEOW. Hahaha. That'd make for some interesting slash...

... BUT NO. It's "to the wall."

And yes. I base most of my stuff on Melpomene and wounds-slash-sickness on the whole gods healing within a day, re Prometheus.
