Snippet #2820704

Klaus rubbed the back of his head sheepishly as everyone mentioned seeing a doctor. He had planned on doing that...at some point but was interested in seeing just how quickly his recently altered body healed. Not quickly enough clearly. His eyes darted to Richard, "It's, it's a long story, not important right now! What is important is what Geroge has said, and I appreciate your willingness to fill me in later, for now, I'm going to make my way to that infirmary you mentioned, Henry."

Klaus nodded and took his leave, making for the infirmary. It had only been a few days since they boarded, but it may as well have been a few months for Klaus. He tried his best to remember the tour they were given but repeatedly found himself at a dead end. The pain was sharp and the bleeding wasn't stopping. He sighed seeing the small trail of blood that had begun to mark his whereabouts.

Eventually, he managed to find a crew member and they graciously brought him to the doctor who's eyes grew as wide as saucers seeing the gash on Klaus's arm. "Don't think you'll buy the, "I fell" as an excuse eh?" Klaus said with a smile.

"Not at all, but you hero types always have your secrets. None of my business how you managed a knife wound under the ocean among friendlies, but hey, I'm just here to patch you up and keep you going. Whatever you want me to put in your chart is between you and whatever god you worship."

"I appreciate the understanding Doctor, I'll try not to make this a habit."

"I get paid, either way, might as well get paid to do my job, but really, how'd you manage such a serious wound while aboard?"

"Who said anything about getting wounded on board the ship?" Klaus chuckled and gestured to the Chrono Dialer on his wrist. It had been the reason for the wound. He was grateful he'd stopped the knife from cutting the band.

"this handy device lets me be anywhere, anytime. I left the ship shortly after boarding, a way to collect my thoughts I guess? Well, I didn't get very long before needing to get to work." The doctor nodded along, pulling supplies to stitch Klaus's forearm back together.

"Still doesn't fully explain how this happened..."

Klaus chuckled, "Well, I was just getting to that..."
