A wild Alex appeared! He said, "Doctor, can I go next? This will be really fast, since I had a physical last month, and everything works right. Okay, what do I do? Say aaaah?"

The doctor nodded, motioning Alex into the room. "Very well, then. Come on in, come on in. Disrobe and have a seat. I'll have some questions for you in a moment."

The doctor leaned against the wall, swallowing a deep swig of coffee. He let out a sigh. "Well, Alex, I'll make this fast, since I'm sure you have nothing wrong. If you disrobe it will go faster. In any event, do you have any pertinent medical history to speak of? Any medications you're on? Present Illness or fever?" Dr. Victor spoke quickly, listing off things and expecting a unanimous no to every question. "Now, what is your allergy to that you nicked one of my epi-pens for?"

Alex whipped off his shirt and sat down. "The pants stay on, though. And no cold stethoscopes. Actually, no cold anything. My old doctor was really nice and all, but I think he kept his instruments in a refrigerator. It was awful. You know that ear thing? The one doctors put in your ear? I think it's called an otoscope? When he used it, I got ice cream headaches. It was that cold." He realized that he should respond to Dr. Victor's question sooner rather than later and added, "Uh, bees. I'm really allergic to bees. Also, blood type O negative. Is that good?"

"Yes, Alex, that is fine. You're as healthy as a horse, so I won't need to go further, I'm sure." The exam was with warm hands in cool gloves, though certainly nothing could be refrigerated at this stage of the game. His touches were delicate, and he hit the major lymphnodes and abdomen. He used his head to listen to Alex's heart and lungs. "You're fine. Any questions you want to ask, personally or professionally?"

Alex was ticklish and snickered when the doctor touched him. To his final question, he said, "Yeah, can I visit you and Micah later to play cards, or something? OH." His smile fell. "I had a really disturbing dream the night before this. Somebody I know here was in it. But the worst part's, well, my ex-girlfriend started falling apart, like the undead, and I ..." He mimed a swinging motion. "Is that a medical thing, or d'you think it's natural?"

"I believe everything is possible, but I do not attribute the subconscious to any medical abnormality ever. Dreams are... dreams are just ways your mind copes with situations. Nothing more, okay? If you need to, though, you're more than welcome to discuss these things with Kerry, I believe, the older woman in the hat. She's quite a decent listener." The doctor turned, pursing his lips. "You can put your shirt back on, Alex. Thank you."

"Okay. I'll be over for poker later." He stood and left. He did not, however, put his shirt back on.

Seth sat out in the main reception area, looking interestedly at the papered over windows. He gave the shirtless Alex a smile and a mild double-take. Seth- "Next, we'll have to secure the city pool..."

Ashley walks in, looking for the not-Victor doctor he signed up for. He was trying to wiggle his fingers as it was, but was too proud to wear a sling. He had a clean suit shirt and jacket on at the moment.

The doctor stepped out the restroom and glanced at the people waiting. "Dr. Melange, one of your patients is here. Seth, please come on in." He motioned Seth into the door behind him, holding it open awkwardly, obstructing the passage through unless Seth walked underneath his outstretched arm.

Seth ducked beneath the doctor's arm, giving him a light poke in the ribs as he passed. Seth- "Make a better door than a window, huh doc?"

Bebe- "Hello! Here for your physical exam? Your name was... Ashley, of course. Come into the restaurant dining area. I'll do mine in there."

Ashley- He offers his good hand to her, and spares a glance towards where doctor Victor went. "Yes, that is I. He had a look at me last night, so I think this might be brief." He seems to feel relieved about that at least, and puts his good hand into his pocket, and leans back a little. That hurt too.

Bebe- "Dr. Melange I am. Pleased to meet you under better circumstances. Your wound last night was a little worse than young Derek's. Yet here you are!" She led him into the front area of the restaurant. The windows had been papered to where light was admitted from the tops, but it was impossible to see the madness outside. She had him sit on a stool."I should help you take your shirt off. Are you OK with that?"
