Craig flashed the man a consoling smile as he operated on his leg, the bone of which had been fractured in a rather nasty bike related accident. Although they had given him a local anesthetic, the pain still managed to creep through on occasion. It was no matter though, for Sims knew what he was doing and would have this man walking again in no time. Letting his finger hover over the exposed femur, he began to mend it, moving in a steady upwards motion until the fracture disappeared. Carefully removing the forceps holding the man's flesh apart, he sealed up the wound. A slow process as he had to repair each part layer by layer, with the muscles first and the skin last, all while painstakingly reconnecting hundreds of nerve endings, the unpleasantness of which shone clearly on his patients face. 

Once all was said and done however, Mr. Peterson was up and about in no time, shifting his weight from foot to foot experimentally before finally accepting the fact his limb was no longer in danger. After making a few laps around his sectioned off part of the room, Peterson made his way over to Sims, taking the man's hand in his and shaking it profusely.

"I cannot thank you enough sir."

Craig returned the shake with a small chuckle.

"There is no need," he said. "I'm just doing the best I can with what I've been given, just like everyone else."

Placing a hand on his shoulder, Sims guided the man back to the central wing of the hospital, watching briefly as he was processed and released before making his way back to the emergency ward, his mind a tumble. It still shocked him honestly, how new this all was to people. It had been some time since the Equinox itself, meaning humanity had plenty of time to grow at least somewhat accustomed to its newfound power, yet people still seemed surprised when someone like himself healed their wounds via the power of the mind. Then again powers such as that didn't exist back then, with accounts of such being relegated to flights of fancy. Passing delusions that no one put much stock in. 

Till now that is.

So maybe that was why. Maybe the events of the Equinox were still too new, too strange, for people to accept the fact that they now lived in a reality that truly was stranger than fiction.
