We’ll get it all figured out. First thing I want to do, is see how this little system reacts when you eat something. Have you tried consuming anything since this became an issue? I can only assume, but to assume the obvious and be incorrect is dangerous.

*Nods with a twinge of pain*
That's how I found out about it.

Undoubtedly. In terms of everything aside from his motivation and intentions, none of what I’ve seen or heard surprises me so far.

@Melodious

I think I would be much more nervous if you got surprised.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Not necessarily.
…
In fact I doubt it.

@Melodious

Do you think it's just because of his powers that he's able to do that?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Definitely. Hard to take anything out of a person without.

@Melodious

Does that mean Mierno put it there the same way?

*Smiles back through the window*
Of course! Take a moment while I gather some tools. In terms of medical treatment, this problem is just a little bit unique, so I don’t have everything on hand immediately.

@Melodious

Will it need some kind of surgery?

If we’re lucky!

@Melodious

*Forces a sluggish smile*
You're the best, Claire. I don't know what I would do without your help.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

*Smiles*
Fantastic! If we’re lucky and these things behave themselves, we’ll have you out in time for bed.

@Melodious

That fast? I was thinking it would take another month. I might be able to go back to work sooner than I thought.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Doctor cliché humor. Don’t worry about it. Are you okay with hanging around for a while?

@Melodious

*Nods*
You seem like you know what you're doing. This is so out of my knowledge.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

We won’t let it get that far. It’ll go faster the longer you can stay here and let me examine the problem. And when we’re done, I’ll even send you back with a lollipop!

@Melodious

*Furrows my eyebrows*
I, um, what?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

Hard-er, but not impossible. Its difficulty is almost entirely just making sure we don’t get you hurt, which I’m sure you’ll appreciate in the long term.

@Melodious

*Nods*
Will it be fast enough that I don't starve?
