He giggled and watched as the nurse turned back around and he tried to slide off the table but was met by her again this time holding a potion.
"Umm...I don't think that's a good idea," he said as he took the potion. Looking around at everyone he shrugged and drank the potion completely. Handing the glass back to her with a grin he hopped off the table and grabbed Fia's hand. "Alright let's go."
Gabriella simply frowned as Miles urged her to levitate him once again. Had she not been previously warned about his hyperactivity, his comments just might have annoyed her---and Gabriella
did hate to get annoyed with the children. She narrowed her eyes at his 'not a good idea' comment but otherwise remained silent. When the potion was gone, a small smile appeared on her face.
"Did you enjoy the milk, Mr. Vorkosigan?" she asked, nodding towards the empty phial. Yes, she'd just given him a nice, healthy dose of milk, full of calcium. When she was growing up, her mother always said a healthy dose of calcium was perhaps the best way to calm a child and help he or she have a peaceful night's rest. It had always worked in the Ashford household, at least.
"It'll calm you, hopefully, without triggering your allergies."
When he took hold of Fia's hand and announced he was leaving, Gabriella swished and flicked her wand to close the slightly ajar door.
"Mr. Vorkosigan, must I tell you a third time to wait calmly until I dismiss you?" she asked. She waited a few seconds, swished and flicked her wand again, then...
"You're dismissed." The door opened just a bit.
"Have a nice day...both of you. Remember to get some rest, Mr. Vorkosigan."
