"I was wondering where you went," Duke said, looking up at the sound of Shane's voice. "They're getting OR 2 ready for you now... you should probably head up there and take care of consent forms and anything else they need." He gave Shane directions on how to get there, using both the elevator and the stairs in case he had a preference (or a fear of elevators, which was rare but did happen).

"Alright', he said and turned around to go to the OR. "See you later, I hope", he added smiling. Within a few minutes he was standing in front of the OR. He looked around to see if a doctor was coming. When he didn't see anybody, he opened to door and entered, going forward and sitting on a bench in the preparation area.
A nurse came through the door holding a chart. "Shane, right? I would need you to take off yout clothes and wear that gown please..." Shane did as he was told and was then escorted to the operation table. "The doctor would be in any moment now", she told him before leaving him in the room.

Kirika finally awoke, looking around. She read the note, and immediately buzzed the nurse's office... several times in a row just for her entertainment. Kirika bored easily, but the prospect of creamy delight was obviously enough to get any child up and at em' quickly.
*sry for the short post but i'm busy and wanted to bring her back in, if only for a bit x-x*

"Walking problems? Wow...there goes my soccer career." She did chuckle at Jason's attempt at being funny, but her mood lightened considerably when he gave her the book. "Any book will never pass by me unread, Jason. Thanks."
Karina picked up the novel, and flipped to the first page. "I'll be reading until nightfall or whenever I'm needed. Would it be possible to have a do not disturb sign on the door?" The corner of her mouth twitched up in a smile. It was good to have Jason back, even for his light and sometimes odd humor.

Shane just sat there thinking. There was either something going on between Karina and Jason or they had a past. He couldn't be sure after the reaction and the lack of it from Jason. He could guess about these things fairly accurately, after all he was in college!

"I'll check into it," Jason promised. "You do seem to be quite popular. I wonder why that is?" He winked at her, then drew the blinds at the front of the room (leaving the ones by the outside window open to give Karina extra light to read by) and closed the door behind him when he left. Hopefully, the combination of drawn shades and closed door would let people know Karina didn't want company right now, at least until he could arrange something further.
He walked into OR 2 with two other doctors, his supervisor and an anesthesiologist. He nodded and winked at Shane, then told him, "Sorry about earlier... I didn't expect to have to go over Karina's diagnosis in front of company. I assure you, I'm usually a very nice guy. I'll be assisting on your surgery, by the way... Dr. Laurence will be taking the lead. Do you have any questions before we start?"
(OOC: I just went ahead and named the other surgeon after my dentist, so we can get Shane's operation over with... someone else can control him if they want.)

"Thanks. See you later." Karina started on the first chapter, and soon was lost in the rush of words. After a couple hours passed, yawned, and not long after fell asleep with the book still open in her lap.
((is there gonna be a love interest from shane? or is he just over-friendly? i don't care. it would be interesting to see how jason reacts if shane shows interest in karina, though. XD ))

"Thats all right, I wasn't supposed to be in there anyway, but I was just getting bored. Hey Doc, hope you don't mind me asking, is there something... going on between you two? Sorry, I know its not my place to ask but I am just curious." He was curious for more than just the sake of his curiosity. "Oh wait, I have more question regarding the procedure. What kind of a recovery time are we talking about here?", he asked concerned. ((I am trying to build up from over-friendly to an eventual love interest. I thought it would be interesting as Jason already has the Wendy-Karina thing to deal with. What say pinata?))

Dr. Laurence sighed as he pulled on his gloves and entered the OR. "You should be out of here within 24 hours," he said in his deep voice. "Of course this will be an out-patient procedure. Do you have any allergies to sedatives we should know about before we begin the procedure?" He looked over to Jason. "Ah, Dr. York. I saw Wendy here earlier. How're you two doing?"
Dr. Martin walked by the car crash victim's room, saw the blinds drawn and the girl reading. He stormed in, carrying the chart with him. He looked it over once more just to be sure. "Ms. Loveland, is it? Is there a reason you're reading with potential brain damage?" He thumbed his nose and furrowed his brow. "You know, it doesn't really matter that much, seeing as you're the newest addition to good ol' Dr. York's spank bank, but despite what he told you. He's woefully underskilled to make any assumptions about your condition, so if you'd be so as to put the book down until we can assess what kind of damage you may or may not have, well gosh I might just have to start giving you preferential treatment myself." He flipped the chart shut and started to leave.
(feel free to put your two cents in. ;D) ((Also, anyone interested in being a patient for Lenny to pick up? Anyone?))

"Uh, I am not sure. Is there a test you can do find out? I have never been sedated before in my life... so cant help you there. I am not sure what you mean by a out patient procedure. And when I do get out, can I immediately go back to basketball or is there a resting period of some kind?" He looked at Jason when he heard Dr. Laurence about someone called Wendy. He realized he might have been totally wrong to assume something between Karina and Jason.

"Never had your wisdom teeth out, root canal, any dental procedure? They use the same stuff we do," Dr. Laurence said. He looked to one of the nurses. "Be a dear and bring us some Percocet, would you?" Then, to the patient whose name he hadn't bothered learning(which he never did anyways): "Relax, you won't remember a thing."

"Oh, is that so? I will be alright then. You can go ahead with the procedure. And you are telling me to relax when you say I won't remember a thing after you have finished meddling with my brain?", he smiled hoping the doc who get the joke. He had heard about some doctors who were said to have lost their sense of when they entered Med School.

"Well, one way or another," the doctor mused as he picked up his surgical tools, looking at his own reflection in them. His dark skin was starting to wrinkle with age, and it was just a shame. the first 55 years of his life had not been kind to him at all.
The nurse administered the sedative, and soon the patient was unconscious. "Dr. York, let's begin," Dr. Laurence said.

Before the sedative was administered, Jason had the chance to respond to Shane's question. "A long time ago, Karina and I knew each other in a less formal sense than we do now. But we've both moved on... she's dating a guy named Steve or something, and my girlfriend just recently moved in with me."
He grabbed some surgical instruments that he often found himself using when he assisted Dr. Laurence, and waited. While he waited, he sang softly to himself:
"Like a surgeon, hey Cuttin' for the very first time Like a surgeon Got your kidneys on my mind
Like a surgeon, ooh-hoo like a surgeon With my scalpel, and my forceps, and retractors..."
(OOC: I couldn't resist the Weird Al song. And yes, I did get Karina's boyfriend's name wrong intentionally. And yes, I do realize that Seth is channeling Perry Cox at the moment. Also, I'll try to come up with a new patient character if nobody beats me to it.)
