Lyra turned at the new voice. If she remembered her cheezy serial novels correctly, her next line should be “Give it to me straight doc: am I going to live?” Of course, that was a stupid question, and everypony knew it. Were she in actual danger of perishing, she’d be in the Intensive Care Unit, with the best unicorns in Equestria working on her, and she probably wouldn’t be conscious. Given that there weren’t even any monitors running, it was a fair guess that she was in stable condition.
