[giving them his hand! he doesn't seem too bothered by the injury, either.]

I was under the impression based on the notification I received that it would only affect... newer crew members.

[dropoffs]

[ a small shake of the head. ]

Seems like we're all in the same boat and we all receive the same cosmo...electro...magnetic-whatevers. Not my expertise.

[ this, however, is. io is light-handed and the suture needle and thread is almost like an extension of their fingertips with how effortlessly they move. a small, amber light emits from their visor, illuminating the area between them as they work.

between stitches: ]

Doing alright?

[expiries]

I'm fine. As I said, I'm used to this.

[the connection confirms that's true, and that he Approves of the work as he watches calmly.]

[dropoffs]

[ they accept this, continuing with neat stitches, precisely as tight at they need to be. there is only focus here. ]

This material will help with the healing process slightly. They're sturdy, but... go easy on this hand for a bit, alright?

[ nearing the end of it now. ]

Even if you're used to it. [ and done. they will just finish with a Bandage. ] Satisfactory?

[expiries]

[after a final quick glance:]

...Satisfactory. [awkwardly, after a long moment:] ...Thank you.

[wow. a miracle.]

[dropoffs]

[ blessed by a southern thank you. wow... ]

That's what I'm here for.

Will you tell me how it feels in a few days? [ just to follow up :( ] It can be over a message. Doesn't have to be in person.

[expiries]

[awkwardly:]

You don't have cause to worry.

[dropoffs]

[ just a nod ]

It is just in my nature.

Oh... not to keep you, but I hope your items made it to you on time?

[expiries]

Ah - yes, they did. I found them earlier today.

[dropoffs]

Good - I hope your cat is... acclimatizing alright?

I know the one that Thebe has was a bit spooked at first.

[expiries]

...Might I ask why she was brought instead of something more useful?

[arthur be nice]

[dropoffs]

[ no let him cook ]

No clue why they choose the things they do. The company is the one who handles everything prior to being assigned a ship.

Wish I knew why a cat instead of... I don't know. What would you have preferred? Genuinely.

[expiries]

If I don't have it, does it matter?

[dropoffs]

[ a light hum ]

Would it be so bad to say?

[expiries]

That depends on the reason for the curiosity.

[dropoffs]

Pure curiosity. There is no... [ headtilt and ? ] real motive beyond that? I came here to learn, so I ask questions.

It's the only way I was able to get used to things aboard the ship.

[expiries]

Other people will be more skilled at handling your curiosity.

[dropoffs]

I am not speaking with other people in this moment, unfortunate for you.

[expiries]

Allow me to fix that for you, then.

[bye (I'M SORRY!!)]

[dropoffs]

[ never be sorry they just watch him walk off!!!!!! ]

That's one way to say goodbye then!
