|[Lucky (NO SPRITE)]
|Uh. Who are you supposed to be?
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Howdy!
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Sorry, am I in your way? I thought this was, like, the fitness room.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|I had a bit of a scare the other day, with some chest pain.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
| So, I've been trying to be a little more cautious about my health.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|An old buddy of mine used to tell me, "You've only got one body! You better treat it right!"
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|I should've listened. And after getting a lil' spooked on that train ride, I figured I could at least give this hospital a visit.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|How about you? What are you in for?
|-
|[Lucky]
|Oh, uh...something about a rotator cuff. Can't use my arm.
|-
|[Lucky]
|Now I'm stuck here. It sucks.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Hmm. How about we do a workout together?
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|That friend I mentioned showed me all kinds of stretches.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|But before that, I wanna feel the difference in strength between your two shoulders.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Let's try something...
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Hold your arm out and gimme a big thumbs up.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Good! Now flip it to a thumbs down if you're tired of me already. 
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|I'm gonna gently cup my hands around yours.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|You'll feel a slight push from me, but try slowly moving your arm up and down.
|-
|
|[placeholder for misses and whatnot]
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|I think that's enough!
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Now, we'll do the real thing.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Relax and let your mind wander. You might hear people from outside.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|That's perfectly fine. Just clear your mind, feel the rhythm, and do the reps at your own pace.
|-
|{{Sprite/Miner}}
|Let's begin. 20 reps, now.
|}
<small>''[After 5 reps]''</small>
{|
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Yo. Did you see who got admitted here the other day?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Lucky Jonronero.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|...who's that?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Seriously? The...baseball player? On the Middlesea Scales?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Like, one of the biggest names on the team?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|...
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|All-star pitcher? And, as of this season, number one for homeruns?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Not ringing a bell. I don't do baseball.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Okay. Well. He's a local celebrity.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|That makes two of us!
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|...not really, no.
|}
<small>''[Phase 2]''</small>
{|
|[Lucky]
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">"One of the biggest names on the team"...</span>
|-
|[Lucky]
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">...if that's so true, how come nobody's reached out?</span>
|-
|[Lucky]
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">No phone call from Coach, no visits from my teammates, no flowers or "get well soon" card...</span>
|-
|[Lucky]
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">All I got was a couple of pieces of fanmail. At least someone remembers me...</span>
|-
|[Lucky]
|What's the point of all this again?
|-
|[Miner]
|It's just a little test. And yup, looks like that shoulder got real weak.
|-
|[Lucky]
|If it's so weak, why don't I just work out? Pump it back into shape.
|-
|[Miner]
|Ha! If you try to lift weights, your body'll topple like a stack of twigs.
|-
|[Miner]
|You need some gentle tension...
|-
|[Miner]
|Oh! Hold on a tick...
|-
|[Miner]
|I've got some bungee cord in my bag!
|-
|[Miner]
|This'll be perfect. Now, grab the cord.
|-
|[Miner]
|Slowly pull it inward, without turning your body.
|-
|
|[placeholder for misses and whatnot]
|-
|[Miner]
|That's the exercise!
|-
|[Miner]
|Easy, right? Just feel the rhythm, and let your mind wander.
|-
|[Miner]
|20 more reps, now.

|{{Sprite/MrsStevenson}}
|Doctor...um, if it isn't a bother...
|-
|{{Sprite/MrsStevenson}}
|...would today be a good day for me to see my husband?
|-
|{{Sprite/MrsStevenson}}
|I still can't find him.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|What? Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, ma'am...!
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">(Ian!!! When we did the hand-off, you were supposed to move Mrs Stevenson to her husband's room!!!)</span>
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">(S-Sorry!!! I was busy. Everything was kinda falling apart, remember?)</span>
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|So sorry for the wait, follow me, we'll get you moved right away.
|-
|{{Sprite/MrsStevenson}}
|Oh, thank you kindly...
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|I'll make sure the nurse knows where you're staying now, and we'll move over all of your belongings.
|-
|[Mrs. Stevenson]
|Will there be enough room for all of us? Even my children?
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Wait, your family is here too?
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|I think she means the birds.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Oh.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Uh...yeah, there'll be room! We'll get the whole Stevenson family together!
|}
<small>''[Phase 3]''</small>
{|
|[Lucky]
|I wasn't expecting everyone here to be so...chatty.
|-
|[Miner]
|Why not?
|-
|[Lucky]
|I don't know. Every hospital visit I've ever had was all business.
|-
|[Lucky]
|Get in, get out. No small-talk, no life story.
|-
|[Lucky]
|Aren't we here to get patched up so we get back out to work?
|-
|{{Sprite/Samurai}}
|...
|-
|[Lucky]
|Anyway. I know you're tryin' to help, but...I still don't really feel anything.
|-
|[Miner]
|Exactly! It doesn't hurt, right?
|-
|[Lucky]
|Uh...no?
|-
|[Miner]
|Then you're doin' swell!
|-
|[Lucky]
|Alright. I did your workout. Now what?
|-
|[Miner]
|Now we rest up for a second...then we do it again!
|-
|[Lucky]
|Again?!
|-
|[Miner]
|Yep. The point isn't for it to be difficult...it's for you to do over and over. Like a routine. 
|-
|[Lucky]
|And then...I'll be back to peak performance?
|-
|[Miner]
|I can't promise that. But if you keep at it...you'll get your movement back eventually.
|-
|[Miner]
|Let's do another set.
|-
|[Miner]
|This will be our cooldown, so let's do them slower.
|-
|[Miner]
|Hold the stretch for three beats for each rep, instead of one.
|-
|
|[placeholder for misses and whatnot]
|-
|[Miner]
|Great job!
|-
|[Miner]
|Let's end strong! 20 reps, and then we're done.

|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Knock, knock! Good morning, Mr Stevenson!
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|We have a special guest for you today...
|-
|{{Sprite/MrStevenson}}
|Wha...?
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Your wife is here! She's going to be moved to this room.
|-
|{{Sprite/MrsStevenson}}
|Sweetie! Ohhh, look at you, your leg...
|-
|{{Sprite/MrStevenson}}
|Stacy! There you are!
|-
|{{Sprite/MrsStevenson}}
|You had me worried sick, you know.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">(The reunion! It's finally happening!)</span>
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">(Oh my god, Ian, look...she's holding his hannd so gently. Now his lip is starting to quiver...)</span>
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">(H-he's gonna cry...I can't handle it...)</span>
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Everyone, come in here!
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Aw, now that's a precious sight. You lovebirds are back together!
|-
|{{Sprite/Hailey}}
|Ohmygoshhh, you two are so cute!
|-
|{{Sprite/Logan}}
|Woah, the birds are flying in on their own!
|-
|{{Sprite/MrStevenson}}
|I'm sorry for worrying you. Could you find it in your heart to forgive a clumsy old oaf like me?
|-
|{{Sprite/MrsStevenson}}
|In a heartbeat.
|-
|{{Sprite/Hailey}}
|Awwww!
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Someone go get the Intern! Where are they?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|I think they're doing some other thing, with that baseball guy.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Really? They're missing out- oh my gosh, he's showing her the photo he kept by the bed!
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|*sniffle*
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Ian's crying! Ian's actually crying for real!

<small>''[End of session]''</small>
{|
|[Miner]
|Phew! Good workout.
|-
|[Miner]
|I think we'll stop for the day.
|-
|[Lucky]
|Are you sure? That was...short.
|-
|[Miner]
|No need to push ourselves! One day at a time.
|-
|[Miner]
|Great work today!

{|
|[Miner]
|What do ya think? Was that too much?
|-
|[Lucky]
|Somehow...I feel fine!
|-
|[Lucky]
|I mean, my shoulder's still busted like hell, but...nothing we did was hurting it.
|-
|[Miner]
|Great! It was a good thing we took it slow.
|-
|[Miner]
|We can do it again tomorrow. Same time. As long as we don't push your body past what it's ready to handle, it shouldn't hurt.
|-
|[Lucky]
|Th-thanks.
|-
|[Lucky]
|Heh. I'm sure you didn't think when you woke up today that you'd be helping <span style="color:#00ffff">Lucky Jonronero</span> with stretches, huh?
|-
|[Miner]
|Haha. Sorry? Should I know you?
|-
|[Lucky]
|Oh. I play for the Middlesea Scales. Play baseball, I mean. Or, at least, I used to. Before all of...this.
|-
|[Miner]
|Well, Lucky, I'm glad I was able to meet another friendly face. I guess you can call <span style="color:#00ffff">me</span> the lucky one!
|-
|[Miner]
|I also met a girl named Hailey, she recommended I come here. She seemed like a ray of sunshine too.
|-
|[Miner]
|Since I'm here, I might as well make the most of it and meet everyone.
|-
|[Miner]
|Next time you wanna talk workouts, you know where to find me. Have a good one, Lucky!
|-
|[Lucky]
|O-oh, uh...sure!

{|
|{{Sprite/Janitor}}
|Did you see the new guy? With the hard hat?
|-
|{{Sprite/Janitor}}
|Now that's a guy who does some real back-breaking labor.
|-
|{{Sprite/Janitor}}
|I could tell as soon as I saw him. Even just the look in his eyes. That's a weary soul.
|-
|{{Sprite/Janitor}}
|His skin's all worn from the sun. The way he sits...there's an air of exhaustion around him.
|-
|{{Sprite/Janitor}}
|Complete opposite of that computer whiz guy. With the bloodshot eyes and the delicate fingers.
|-
|{{Sprite/Janitor}}
|For me, the miner's a kindred spirit. I hope he enjoys the nice air-conditioning in here.
