Dash waved at the newcommer with his good arm. ... just how many people worked here anyway??

Isis looked over at Dash distressingly before slightly narrowing her eyes at Anansi, unamused. "If you see him tell him I have his little errand..." She held up a small disc in her robotic claws.

The spider just shrugged, waving dismissively over her shoulder as she flipped through channels with the recently located remote. "Yeah, yeah, if I remember, I will. Why don't you run off and... do whatever it is you do when you have free time?" Anansi's tone made it obvious she didn't think very highly of Isis, but then again, she didn't seem to think highly of anyone, except... Well, that wasn't important.

Well, that was... different. At least the TV was working. ... or was it? ... It seemed to be... flickering. "Is something wrong with the TV?"

Anansi blinked at the TV, then at Dash. "No, not really..." Anansi didn't notice anything strange, so just continued watching, her expression... bored out of her mind.

Isis just gave a blank expression to Anansi, not really appreciating her lip but not really caring enough to retaliate as she slipped the disc back under her cloak. "Who's the new blood?" She asked curiously.

Dash stared at the television a bit more- it seemed like each scene on the TV flicked in and out, like watching it with a strobe light. It... it was making his headache worse. Wincing and closing his eyes tightly, he looked away. "My name is Dashiel. Most people call me Dash."

Anansi didn't take her eyes off the TV, but pulled her legs up to her chest, since it was more comfortable than letting them hang off the seat of the couch. She was officially ignoring them until one of them spoke to her again.

Isis gave Dash a small nodd before turning and walking off toward the labs.

After awhile of keeping his eyes covered to help ward off his headache, he peeked through his fingers only to discover the jackal that was there a moment ago had disappeared. "... uh. Nice to meet you too."

The girl just shrugged, waving nonchalantly in the direction Isis had been "I wouldn't worry about it, too much. She does that a lot." Her mechanical arm was the one she had around her legs, as she rested her chin on her knees. "Seems like almost everybody around here is pissed off about something, or is a step away from being a whiny ball of angst."

Dash frowned. "Sounds lovely." He took another glance at the TV. Ooooh chaos what a bad idea THAT was...Eyes covered. "... are you SURE there's nothing wrong with the TV? It's like a strobe light on crack..."

Anansi just looked over at him again, hiking an eyebrow. "Seriously, there's nothing wrong with the TV, it looks fine to me. Maybe something's wrong with your eyes."

Rubbing at his eyes, he frowned a bit. Yeah, could be that. They're definitely not the way they used to be..."... yeah. Maybe that's it. ... I think I'm just gonna grab a book and head back to my room to relax for awhile. It was nice meeting you."

And around that time a certain pangolin burst through the door thumbing through a stack of papers in his hands, apparently very intent on reaching another door on the other side of the room. Did I mention he was now wearing a red sweater, a dark red skirt and red heels?

Hearing the doctor come in, Anansi looked up, curious as to what he was doing... And paused. She'd been about to say hi, or something to him, but for the life of her she couldn't remember WHAT now.

Cue disbelieving stare. "... DOC?!"

The doctor came to a halt, looking over at the tenrec with a completely serious, if distracted, expression. "Yes? Do you need anything?"

The tenrec stared, his jaw slightly dropped. "... W... Why are you wearing a skirt?" Pause. "... and heels?!"

"... ... and why RED?" Yeah, the crossdressing didn't surprise her, but the COLOR does. Ok then.

Finitevus frowned arched a quizzical brow. "Because I happened to like this outfit and I think the colors compliment my markings. Now," he glanced specifically at Dash. "Do you need anything or not?"

"... yeah. ... I'd like to go back to my room now." No... no further commentary on the dress thing. His brain was a bit burnt out at the moment.

Looking at the papers in his hands and then resisting an urge to sigh he tucked them away into his hammerspace and approached the tenrec's wheelchair. "Very well then," he said, grasping the handle bars. "We can do a few exercises concerning your eyesight anyway."

"... yeah, about those... some reason I can't like... uh... see the TV right. It's all flicker-y." Ignoring the clothes. Ignoring the clothes.

"Hmm, I think perhaps they might need more time to adjust, well know soon if that's the case..." the pangolin doctor said as he began wheeling his patient off. "Television is only a sequence of still pictures pieced together, and remember, you're now fitted with high speed sensors."

"... man, that's going to make watching movies a lot more annoying", he commented as they made their way into the room.

Wheeling the tenrec up beside his bed, Finitevus stepped around and motioned to help him up onto it. "With any luck it'll be a temporary side effect. If not I may need to try making adjustments. They should adjust themselves accordingly on their own." Once Dash was settled the doctor moved the wheelchair off to the side. "On that note, how is your problem with seeing everything in slow motion you'd mentioned earlier? Has it improved, or can you tell any difference yet?"

"It's... still kind of..." he waved his arms... well, one arm, really, "... slow motion-y, yeah. Kind of feels like ... uh... sensory overload, or something. It's not as bad as it was before though..." Don't look at the heels, don't look at the heels...Glance. "..."

"Good," the doctor said, ignoring his patient's stare and motioning to leave. "Now, I'll be back in a moment with a few tools to test your eyesight... shall I bring any books back to occupy yourself with as well?"
