Dedalus had told her to stay home today.
Not told, exactly, because that would have been rather odd, but he'd somehow found out that another nurse needed to switch shifts with someone, and put together that Eliza was free and--yes. She'd been home for about half an hour into the shift she was supposed to have when she received an emergency owl about covering in the maternity ward.
Which---ended sending her up to Spell Damage for half an hour, which sent her back down to the second floor. Eliza found some weird sense of calm in the chaotic halls of Mungo's; even though everyone was always moving at a rapid pace, they all knew what they were doing, and that eased her worries.
Eliza had noticed Peter because she noticed everything, and he seemed to look very sick. She remembered him from school, and she'd seen him around Dedalus--sort of. Or whenever Dedalus was around Peter's other friends, really, but she did recognize his face and name, and he was looking ill in a hospital...which she worked at...
"Are you feeling all right, Peter?" she asked softly, eyes full of concern.
