Welcome back from the break where we catch up with Aoife and Áine…while Aoife still looks very scared….
Welcome back, Rawr. 😀
Unfortunately, if this is anything like U. S. hospitals, they’re about to be parted. 🙁
If the Formorians attack, Aoife being Aoife, will she try to use Aine’s Bata? And, if so, what might happen?
That’s a good question can any women use the Bata’s? I seem to recall it making one of the girls sick to hold it to long, but could Aoife use it? good god that’s would be a scary thing. Garda Rachel just though she was dangerous before!
@Howard: Well, it has been implied that Aoife has some degree of sensitivity to the spirit world. For example, back in the Ghost chapter, we saw that Aoife can see ghosts and has been able to even before the Bata Neart came on the scene. (although she does see them as orbs rather than as distinct figures.)

So I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Aoife turns out to be able to use the Bata Draiochta at least a little, especially if she’s in a very stressful situation (like being attacked by Fomorians.)
@Kessy: Garda Rachel still doesn’t seem convinced that Aoife had noththing to do with the earlier explosions, so if Aoife DOES manage to use the Bata Draiochta it will confirm Rachel’s suspicions–no matter WHAT Ashling says. ^^
@Howard, Kessy & Delta: Aoife has shown to have some natual contact with the spirit world, so it wouldn’t be impossible. You know well she’d be more into getting trained as a witch….but would she be able contain her excitment enough to safely learn any magic….I dunno, the results might be a lot more explosive than Ashling’s try 😀
@Azreal: They won’t necessarily get separated. It is only a small regional hospital, and they’ll need Aoife’s help to learn more about what happened.
@Azrael: I don’t know a whole lot about how hospitals work, but my impression is that when a young otherwise healthy person comes into the Emergency Room unconscious for no apparent reason, the staff’s top priority is generally going to be to get the real story out of the patient’s friends. Aoife may be in for some guilt tripping along the lines of, “We’re not the police and we’re not your parents. We’re only here to help your friend, and we need you to tell us the truth so we can do that. If there’s something seriously wrong with her and you don’t tell us what really happened, we may not be able to do anything.”
@Kessy: Yes, but they generally take the conscious party aside to do that while the nurses and orderlies start prepping the patient, checking vitals, hooking them up to monitors, and so forth. And then of course there’s always the paperwork to be done.
