2 Months later
"Blaaaah" Fionna made the funny noise as she stuck her tongue out upon Bonnibel's request. Fionna kicked her feet back and forth as they dangled off the candy table she was sitting on. She looked around at the laboratory that she was in. This is one room of the castle she had never been in before.
"Don't move." Bonnibel said gently pushing her hand against Fionna's cheek to turn her head. Bonnibel took a good look down Fionna's throat making Mmmhmm noises and nodding her head. Within two seconds Fionna was back to looking around the room and turning her head. Bonnibel gave up and walked to another table, writing on a paper attached to a clip board.
"Whats the word doc?" Fionna asked finishing her inspections of the giant room filled with chemicals and books.
"You seem healthy. I think your bought with the influenza is finished." Bonnibel said. She looked to the smiling girl who sat with her legs kicking back and forth. It was hard to imagine her how she had been for the first month Bonnibel had known her. Fionna had almost lost her life to her sickness, exhaustion, mal-nutrition, dehydration and Bonnibel found her to be anemic as well. Bonnibel had read in books that Marceline had from the times before the mushroom wars and one happen to be a medical journal. 2098 pages, Bonnibel had read through on the anatomy of humans, and they were much more complicated and resilient than candy people. So when she took a sample of Fionna's blood she had matched it's characteristics to that of anemia. Low iron count in her blood cells which leads to different things, like difficulty maintaining body heat, the blood is thin and doesn't coagulate as easily and in severe cases the body stops producing the right amount of blood cells leading to chronic fainting, or at least that's what the book said.
Bonnibel's inner thoughts were cut off by Fionna saying "Hey that means we can go visit Marceline!"
Bonnibel turned to Fionna and looked her up and down. Fionna had taken a real liking to Marceline and has wanted to visit her frequently but with her condition as critical as it was Bonnibel forebode it until Fionna was no longer ill. Bonnibel had been caring for Fionna for the two months that she had known her. Fionna stayed in Bonnibel's room in an infirmary bed. Bonnibel was going to get her a real bed when Fionna was no longer in critical condition but Fionna seemed so infatuated with the bed she had that she didn't want to let it go. Bonnibel thinks she remembered Fionna whispering something about never had having a bed before. But Fionna was always running off. Bonnibel would turn her back for two minutes and Fionna would be off somewhere. The girl had quite the curiosity. But they hadn't seen Marceline much since the night they met Fionna. Maybe Marceline stopped by twice to check on Fionna, but she had only stopped by for 10 minutes then had to leave. Something about her new boyfriend. But within those few moments that Fionna and Marceline interacted, Fionna had grown very fond of Marceline.
Bonnibel thought for a moment. She wanted to see Marceline too. Bonnibel always thinks about Marceline. Always missing her, though Fionna had been a helpful distraction, she turned out to be the perfect (and probably only) excuse to go visit Marceline.
"Alright then." Said Bonnibel to Fionna. "We leave in an hour."
