〈The image focused on a crystal clear representation of 9S. Under floppy, silver hair and an oversized blindfold were delicate features which were brightening in a cheery smile.

For a new arrival in Hadriel he seemed curiously pleased with his situation.〉

Hello!

〈He chimes, his voice filled with excitement and anticipation.〉

I hope nobody objects to me borrowing this frequency for a few minutes. What a funny way of communicating, it's so archaic!

I was just wondering if I could arrange to meet with a few of the humans in the local area. I'm very keen to take a look at you, regardless of gender or medical condition. I was astounded to see so many life signs here, it's phenomenal!

It's all for research purposes of course, nothing sinister!

〈Amusement changes to excitement in a heartbeat.〉

I would love to see these notes! Can you send them to me? Or--or perhaps they're too valuable? I can come to you and study them under your supervision!

〈Any visual hints of the bizarre oddities he kept in his home didn't seem to phase 9S at all. Rather, he was all the more intrigued.〉

I have memorised your location.

I shall come and visit you at your earliest convenience!

--> [ Action ]?

[doctoral_bird]

Right right, I've got nothing else planned for the day. I shall put a kettle on, friend.

[ Malkus figured he'd step outside to wait for the lad. These doors all seemed the same, after awhile. More than once, he'd accidentally walked into the wrong apartment! Maybe he ought to decorate?

The doctor could be found leaning against his door frame, propped up on an elbow pretty casually for such an eerie looking guy. He went over his notes in his head, thinking of how he'd explain his medical knowledge in a simple fashion. ]
