(Jorge/S9)  Cosette takes the pad from Jorge and looks over it quickly, her eyes scanning his notes. "Are...are these reliable?  We can't---"

"They're reliable!" Thomas begins pulling his coat off rapidly, nervously rattling off orders. "Sun-Mi, get to the basement lab and get all of the sodium sesquicarbonate in the chemical cabinet and all of the ceramic labware, all of the protective wear, and as many of the 5 milimeter titanium rods as you can find.  Simonelle, help her."

"Yes, director." Simonelle hurriedly leaves for the basement lab, not waiting to follow Sun-Mi.

"We'll need a specific suture material that won't decay when exposed to her blood," Cosette says, handing the pad to Thomas and getting ready.

"Regina!  Where is Kioshi?" Thomas says over his shoulder.

"S-she's c-cleaning the guest house!  I'll...I'll go get her!" Regina stands and dashes from the room.

"Father, here are the other silks!" Aurum runs up with an armload of clean bedding.

"Put them over there, behind Maria.  Then get to the kitchen and help Lucida," Thomas gestures. Aurum practically stumbles in, setting the bundle down, then turning and dashing out again.

"Maria, Ayesha, finish the scan and show me the readings..." Thomas kneels down next to Tirush, trying to assess her injuries, looking at Jorge's notes. His hand passes over her face, almost appearing to begin to caress her, before he uses his thumb to gently lift her eyelid. He pulls out a small pocket light and shines it in her left eye, then her right eye. He takes a shaky breath, then speaks without looking up, his voice strained.

"Jorge...what did this? How did this happen?"
