Is it cold in here?:
It's a standard move in US employment law to offer a departing employee a severance package above and beyond their contract on condition that they accept it as a complete settlement and sign away their chance to sue. Dora is probably savvy enough to do just that.

There is someone in the wings who could be a Deathmole vocalist. Sven can sing. Could anything fulfill the Principle of Maximum Awkardness better than Sven singing to Faye in the hospital?

What would be the worst song he could sing?

Method of Madness:
...anything he wrote?

jwhouk:
Interesting... she has "several portfolios of blackmail material." Once she has sobered up and gotten to a place where she can function, can she take said portfolios to Dora and say, "give me my job back or else I send these out to Tai, your parents, Sven, and the local newspaper"?

Is it cold in here?:
"Oh, there's this NDA in your severance package, just something the lawyers insisted on".

OK, now my mental picture is Sven singing "Can't get your smell out of my sheets".

--- Quote from: valkygrrl on 27 Jan 2015, 08:34 ---For whatever reason, I can't stop dwelling on how that IV reduces Faye to being one handed.

Restraints seem a far more humane option than crippling someone's hand. There's a bazillion other veins available.

I'm confused. You said your hand was out of use until they removed the IV. If someone was restrained, wouldn't both their hands be out of use/'crippled' until they were removed? How is that more humane? Wouldn't it be doubly bad?
(plus the stuff about dislocating your arms or not being able to roll on your side if you're choking or whatever)

Also, Faye probably would need the IV either way, for fluids and probably medicine. So, having it there to add a benzo or something to wouldn't really be any difference in how much she was already restrained by the IV (physically- obviously she'd probably be pretty asleep once it was added). (Edit: and also, they probably would have an IV in her even without the fluids and stuff, just the needle in. That way, if she crashed, they wouldn't have to deal with finding a vein or wasting precious seconds). Also also, more to do with the last paragraph above this, restraints are terrifying, she's drunk, and last time she described suffering psychosis, which may be expected this time (medically, I doubt they've asked). Terrifying+Confused(and maybe also terrifying) generally is bad.

Warning - THERE HAVE BEEN A BILLION POSTS YOU ARE NO LONGER RELEVANT

I'm probably projecting. Not being able to use a hand when they could have used any other vein is highly unpleasant. In restraints every body part is still functioning and available for use should the opportunity present itself.
