There was an awkward pause from Dash's side as he lifted his 'good' hand to meekly wave at his... apparent coworker. "Uh... hi. How's it goin? Nice... uh... eyes... there... great robe. Really... accentuates the look." He paused, and then gave Inari a thumbs up. "10\10 on the spooky factor."

"...Stay away from me." he told Dash with a glare.

Oh thank Chaos I was going to ask him the same thing.Glancing up at Finitevus, he laughed nervously. "Great crew you have here, guess I'll fit right in."

"Hmm, that reminds me," the doctor said with a rub of his chin. "We'll need to get you fitted for a robe. Anansi too."

There was a grumble from the direction of Anansi's web in response to Finitevus's comment about the robes. And while it was really quite indeciferable, it seemed Anansi wasn't feeling inclined to come out.

"What, that's standard uniform?"

Finitevus ignored Anansi. "Yes. Though it's only required on field assignments."

Inari just 'Humph'ed again and turned to go. Scooping up a technical magazine off a nearby table before he did.

"Ah... kind of... shady looking, isn't it?"

Finitevus shrugged and chuckled. "No shadier than our dealings. Anyway, I'll leave you here to relax and check up on you later, hmm?"

"Yeah, that sounds good. Uh... see you later then?"

"Alright then. Take care, hmm?" With that Fini turned and walked off.

For a long while, Dash said nothing and simple took in the sights his environment provided (wincing and pausing frequently due to the backlash his new eyes was having to his unadapted brain), until eventually looking up to the corner. "So, uh, how long have you been here?"

Anansi poked her head out of the web again, and just... looked at Dash as she considered his question. "I kinda lost track... I'd say about two weeks, give or take, though." This one didn't seem like such an ass, although he definitely needed to grow a spine... "How about you, tenrec?"

Part of Dash was quite pleased to be identified as a tenrec instead of a hedgehog. "You can call me Dash." He paused, scratching his cheek with his 'good' hand. "I'm not really sure how long I've been here. Most of the time I couldn't... uh... see." - emphasizing the latter point he gestured to his mechanical eyes.

Anansi frowned a little, then just nodded as she tried to climb out of her web. "You got a point. Probably not as long as me, since I don't remember seeing you before my... operation." As she spoke, she succeeded in climbing out of her web, although she did need to support herself on it with her organic arm. She was wearing a loose tank top and shorts, both white, that managed to be short enough to reveal a little of her stomach, and a black tattoo that'd been placed there at some point. When, she wasn't sure, but there was no use whining about it now in her mind. Her mechanical arm was clearly visible, as well as minor (very faint) scars in her exoskeleton on her torso and legs that presumably would eventually vanish. And finally, under her bangs, Dash would possibly catch a glance of a mechanical eye, an older design, black, with a white "iris".

Dash scratched a bit at his cheek as he looked the spider, wondering vaguely if EVERYONE here was sans limbs. "What happened to you?" He paused, realizing that could come off as rude, then added, "... if you don't mind me asking."

Anansi seemed to be almost startled by Dash's question at first, and went very quiet, looking into the palm of her mechanical hand... Before a faint, ALMOST disturbing smile crossed her face, and she spoke, sounding like she was quoting someone. "Rocks fell... and I died. The doc put me back together."

The tenrec raised a brow slightly, but didn't question the spider's answer. Instead, he gave an explanation of his own condition- "Apparently I got hit by a bus or something. I can't remember a thing of it though."

Anansi carefully let go of her web, and shambled over towards the Tenrec. "Sounds fun. I'm in kinda the same boat. I don't remember much." A lie. She remembered what happened to her pretty clearly. And that it HURT LIKE HELL, so she won't go trying to repeat THAT craziness again.

Dash frowned and tilted his head slightly, considering the implications of what the spider had said. "I wonder if that's the story for everyone here." The thought of that made him slightly uneasy, as it seemed just a bit suspicious. Then again, maybe it was possible that there really was a bunch of people out there who were just as 'lucky' as he was. And, for some reason, he was much more comfortable entertaining that idea then he was with the idea that Finitevus was lying with him. Though exactly why he couldn't pin. It was almost like he'd forgotten he was normally a suspicious person.

The spider girl shrugged, reasting her organic hand on her hip, and subtly hid the fact she was leaning against the TV. "You'd just have to ask 'em and find out. Frankly, if what happened to me left me like THIS-" The girl motioned to her mechanical parts. "I'm not sure I want to remember, y'know?"

Post by Raki on Jun 22, 2008 21:24:22 GMT -5
Dash paused, letting the implications of her statement sink in before looking at his own mechanical arm. "... yeah, I think I know what you mean." Time to change the subject. Pointing towards the television with his 'good' hand, he asked, "Where's the remote for that?"

Anansi glanced at the TV, then back at Dash, then into her web, checking to see if she hadn't accidentally swiped it or something. "Hm... Not really sure. But when in doubt..." Anansi brought her organic arm up, then pointed dramatically at the couch. "Check the couch."

Dash glanced over to where the spider had gestured, then back down at the wheelchair he was stuck to. This may turn out to be one of those instances where fun is used with sarcastic overtones. Attempting to maneuver the wheelchair with only one actually working arm, the tenrec attempted to get over to the nearby cough.

As Dash tried to get to the couch, the girls sighed, and walked over, pushing him towards the couch (while using the wheelchair as a support, stopping next to the couch. He could turn HIMSELF around... She, on the other hand, plopped herself down on the couch, her feet (to her annoyance and even slight discomfort) not reaching the floor, before she began rummaging in the couch for the missing remote.

The spider just shrugged, and resumed searching. "Oh, probably, but it's something to do to keep from going nuts."

It was around that time that one of the doors slid open and a familiar black canine walked in. She paused and looked at the tenrec blankly before looking over to Anansi. "Where is Finitevus..."

The spider seemed to be tuning out Isis for a moment, before she smirked slightly. "He's off doing the Time Warp." With a triumphant smirk, she pulled out the remote, before glancing over at the jackal. "Again."
