Work Text:

"Keep pushing yourself like that and all you'll get for your effort is a broken leg."

Wendy snorted. "What's the worst that could happen - I end up in a wheelchair?"

Barbara forced back a sigh. "No, but it certainly wouldn't improve your chances of being approved for a Rewalk."

Wendy's only response was to move her arms faster. Considering she'd been on the parallel bars for almost four hours straight, it was a miracle that they hadn't fallen off.

"At least stop for a snack," Barbara continued. "You must be starving."

"I had a big breakfast."

"Leslie won't be pleased when she hears you haven't been eating."

"You know, Gordon, sometimes I think you want me to hate you."

For all their arguments, it wasn't as if Barbara could fault her for getting nowhere. Not even a month before could Wendy have transferred herself so quickly and easily to her chair. Give her another month and even that might not seem like much of an accomplishment.
