[33rd consult; video | action at the hospital]
[Wilson's got an overnight shift today; not a bad deal, of course, since it's given him Friday off, but then... when midnight comes around in the City, you never know what's going to happen. So it turns out that in the middle of his shift, he's suddenly found himself... significantly smaller. Not especially shorter, but certainly scrawnier - his lab coat hangs loosely, draped over his hands comically. And so it is that the device falls from a pocket as it shifts, hitting the ground and activating. The angle grants the viewer a vantage point from the floor in front of a stunned teenager.]
No, not this again...
[He can be grateful for small things, of course; even if it's been a while since this curse hit him, and he was hoping to never see it again, his mental status is at least intact. And so he looks around, not exactly sure of what to do for the moment. It's a bit daunting to face the idea of pulling off the rest of his shift looking like a 17-year-old, even if he's still himself. It's at this time that he collects a file that fell out of his hand when midnight - and the transformation - hit, noticing the device as he bends over.]
Oh damnit--
[He reaches over to the device, and the video feed ends. Rising back to his feet, he puts the device back in his pocket and gets his papers back together.]
