Fandom Clinic, Tuesday

[doctorgingerspice]

When Will walked into the clinic, he was expecting something new to be going on with Stabby. When it wasn't (other than one of the nurses informing him that his full name was, in fact, Stabastian Stabbington VIII), he was... kind of disappointed, to be honest?

"It's gonna be a long day," he predicted, directing this comment at Stabby. "You ready for it?"

The Front Desk

Where Will was making small talk with a crab.

"Um." Hey, Eddie was just checking in to see if they had as quiet a holiday as the fire station had. "Am I interrupting something here?"

“Oh, not in the least,” Will shook his head. “What’s up?”

Re: The Front Desk

[justalittlerepressed]

Eddie had to look at the crab one more time like he was feeling some deeply confused vindication about the wildlife of this place being cursed.

"The 4th is usually a bunch of people making dumb choices about their safety everywhere except here it seems, but I wanted to check in..."

You know. Commiserate in case someone blew off their hand with a bottle rocket.

“Right?” Will said. “But no, everyone’s limbs are still attached. Even Stabby’s over here,” he nodded towards the crab’s tank.

Re: The Front Desk

[justalittlerepressed]

"I'm going to need an explanation on... Stabby?" Because you didn't just name a crab 'Stabby' without someone getting stabbed.

Re: The Front Desk

[doctorgingerspice]

“Short for Stabastian, apparently,” Will added. “It- he?” Will didn’t know how to check the gender of a crab and frankly didn’t want to find out, “showed up one day waving a knife around.”

"So, this is confirmation that we can't actually trust any animals on the island." VINDICATION.

Re: The Front Desk

[doctorgingerspice]

"Have you been having animal problems?" Will had to ask.

Re: The Front Desk

[justalittlerepressed]

"Personally, no. But I've heard some stories."

Mostly about kidnapping.

Re: The Front Desk

[doctorgingerspice]

To be fair the kidnappings seemed to be focused on one island resident in particular?

“Well, if it helps any, I’m fairly certain Stabby’s bark is worse than his, uh. Stab. Plus, he’s contained.”

Re: The Front Desk

[justalittlerepressed]

Still not a zero sum of animals kidnapping someone!

"I really hope so," Eddie replied, looking at the crab for a moment longer. "But if he shows up at that weird Wednesday thing..."

Exam Rooms

[doctorgingerspice]

Where there would be no small talk probably.

OOC

Eight more work days until vacation. I can do this.
