Let me take a look at your eyes first. I can't immediately do anything, but the data is important.

But —

[ Sighs, sitting up fully now ]

Alright. But then you tell me what you need.

I will.

[Pulling down his goggles and going to do a scan over her eyes.]

I'm going to touch your head for better angles.

[Time to move her head back and forth.]

Good. Thank you.

[ she's pliant, letting him do whatever he wants … unless he happens to touch her right temple at any point, whether it's a lingering touch or an incidental brush. that would earn a violent flinch and korone immediately pulling away.

Otherwise: he gets to see something that looks a little like cataracts, except it affects the entirety of her eyes rather than being concentrated over the pupils. ]

[There is definitely an accidental brush and his hands jerk away a moment.]

[A pause.]

Noted. [Then hands are on her again, but away from the temple.]

Hm. That monster was a nasty piece of work.

I can fix this.

But it requires surgery to do so.

We should give it a few days to see if it fades like most things do here, but I'll see about getting a clean room together for it and talk to Leo if it doesn't.

[ shhhhhe's fine she's fine that's fine. it's fine. (he may have felt faint scars under his finger, like scratch marks.) there's a bit of tension, but she relaxes again soon enough when he avoids the area ]

Huh? It's not just a status effect?

[He absolutely did. He's good at memorizing details quickly.]

It looks like you got cataracts over the whole of your eye.

I know how to do eye surgery though. I researched it for Raph's eye.

[ MAKES ... A FACE ... ]

Oh. Cool. [ aaaaaaaa ] I'm gonna cross all of my fingers and toes that it doesn't come to that, for both our sakes.

It would be for the best. Surgery is extremely stressful. Even if Leo would be taking the lead for it, I would need to focus on the technical aspect, so I would be nurse at best.

Leo is our usual medic for a reason though. He's quite good at the doctor thing.

I believe you. Ugh. Stupid goddamn monster.

[ ssssssiiiigghhhh. scrubs her face, pressing the heels of her palms into her eyes. ]

It'll be fine. I'm gonna wake up in like ... three or four days, and my eyes'll be as good as new.

I could give you a proximity sensor if you want.

Its not quite sight, but at least it could keep you from running into anything.

Ah -

[ she almost says that he doesn't have to. bites it back. ]

That sounds really useful. Thanks, Dee-kun.

I'll need to remake it in the morning after I sleep, but it should last through the days easily enough.

Something wrapped around your waist and an ear piece to give you subtle commands. I use the sensor in my robots, so it should be fairly accurate.

You have a weighted blanket, right?

Yeah. Top bunk. [ she Ikea-hacked a ""fancy"" bunk beds with build in wardrobes-style set up. ] It should be the first blanket on the pile.

[He is going to note that for his Own Project.]

Good. [Letting her go and going to retrieve the blanket.]

Be extra weight. [Climbing on the bed beside her.]
