Homura: ... (carefully approaches Kiko's body, gets down on one knee and tentatively pokes her)

-muffled sounds into the floor-

I'm ok, I just have a broken spine.

I can't move, right now. Am fixing it though!~

....!

-Having leaned into the wall to avoid the oncoming Pain Train, the doctor makes his way downstairs, looking curiously-

...?

-He looks over at Homura and Kiko, approaching them-

...Uh oh...Are you alright?

Will it take you another day to stand back up?

....?

-He looks back at Taeko, then down to her PINK ICE CUBES-

...Ooo!....Ingenious!

I mean- it is basically one of the only things I do as a spirit...

Most of us can repair what we're anchored to.

Doooesss take energy though~

I know when I first got this body I couldn't start repairing it for a while at first. I just kept it from rotting.

I was only discovered and taken in by the Spirit Sages because I tried to go clothes shopping after I was all fixed up as best as I could.

...Perhaps I could help speed up the healing process! It'll be interesting to perform surgery on a cadaver...

-to the doctor- Ooo... maybe. I already fixed my punctured lungs, but the spine is taking some time...

-to Homura- Well- people started screaming when they saw a corpse walking down the street- and no-one would give me service!~

Honestly, it's poor customer service, and that was the worst part.

-He rubs his hands, a glint in his eye-

Alright, let's see what can be done!

-He takes a knee and unrolls his surgical tools-

I'd tell you to hold still, but...I don't think that'll be a problem.

-He lifts up Kiko's shirt and starts to cut deeply into her back, opening it up-

-odd, she doesn't bleed from your incisions-

-all the blood is clotted in the veins and arteries-

-because it's not moving, due to her lack of a pulse-

-oddly warm too-

Oh I hope this isn't too disturbing- being operated on right here.

-to Homura- Oooh... are you a dead girl too?

-Homu-

Well, she's already a corpse, isn't she?

-Kiko-

Ahh, the blood doesn't budge, as to be expected, but...it's surprisingly warm.

-to the Doctor- Ohhh- yeah. Side-effect of my presence and energy flowing through things. Makes them warm.

-to Homura- I figured not! I mean, it's not normal to be incapable of smiling.

Fascinating!....

-He begins to work his way to her spine-

....How are your organs? Do they function? I can only assume the heart isn't beating, since there's no blood flow, but what of the rest?

Homura: True, but do you know what the bacteria in freshly-dead corpses do to their former home?

(K) ...No, I guess not.

That was low, Kiko.

-Kiko doesn't seem to know just how low of a blow that was-

-but she doesn't comment further, distracted by the doctor's question- Uhhh... I don't really use them, except when I need to! For appearances.

So no idea!

-The doctor as well seems to be only paying half-attention to Homura's inquiries as he works-

Are you referring to decomposition? She seems remarkably preserved....

If you don't mind, then- I'd like to take a small detour....

-He he starts making other incisions, inspecting her various organs....-
