Being so immersed in his thoughts about creatures (ironically, he really liked Thestrals), Jake jumped when he felt a hand on his shoulder and his eyes snapped open. Guh, he hated being a difficult patient... but still...

The beach... yes... he could do that.

Jake closed his eyes once more.

"Playful creatures, Mr. Upstead. Creatures that make you happy...," she mumbled. Snidget worked extremely well, for the nose made quick process then. A slight popping noise was heard, which sort of made Gabriella wince. It was a necessity, though...the sound of the bone beginning to pop back into place. She spared another smile towards Marcus, who was being really helpful when it came to his...nephew, cousin, relative? If thinking of the beach would help, Gabriella was all for it.
Yes. He could hear the waves... but he could only feel pain... and a weird sensation in his nose, as if the feature was play-doh that was being remolded...

Weird.

The boy was just trying to remember what it had felt like, the first feel of sand, when a popping noise (which in his opinion was LOUD) was heard, and Jake's eyes snapped open. That had freaked him out. Jake reached for the man's arm and squeezed it tight.

Feeling... queasy...
