What's going on?

<Snipped quote by Dynamics>

Of course, though there may be a need for you to watch from a distance. Depending on how sterile we need the environment, which will begin at "completely," so stay on this side of the window, please.
*Carries Dawn through a doorway into a small chamber, then a moment later continues through to a room you can see.*

<Snipped quote by Codify>

You're not sterile either, you know!

<Snipped quote by Meta>

We're just gonna make sure Dawn is okay. But I'll stick with you, okay? I trust Sloth and your mother. We'll stay here unless Dawn wants to see us, okay?

<Snipped quote by Dynamics>

I am, and also, I am. I disinfected the two of us just before entering this room. I apologize if I did so too quickly, time may be of the essence.

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

Why'd she fall over and ruin our trip?

<Snipped quote by Codify>

Fine, fine. Just go.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

How did that occur?

<Snipped quote by Dynamics>

Of course.
*Places Dawn on a table in the middle of the room*

<Snipped quote by Legend>

A dwindling population of users and mass loss of knowledge and history.

<Snipped quote by Meta>

I promise she didn't do it on purpose. At worst, she's very ill. At best, she's going through a change right now. Sort of like... like a butterfly. She'll come out more beautiful, in a sense. So don't worry too much, and don't feel bad about the trip. We can do it over later, okay? When she's feeling better.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

For any particular reason?

<Snipped quote by Codify>

If you kill her, you do not have enough bones...

<Snipped quote by Dynamics>

If she dies, it would be because it were entirely impossible to prevent. I have all of your husband's old knowledge, and he was debatably the most talented doctor in Existence. Please stop worrying so much.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

A large number of them. Less are born with the affinity these days than there used to be. It’s incredibly rare. So as many die to the broad dangers of Existence at large, and to other users themselves, there’s not really replacements, as cold as that phrasing sounds.

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

*Frowns*
But she 'barassed our family.

<Snipped quote by Codify>

Yeah, but I trust him, for better or worse.

<Snipped quote by Dynamics>

*From your perspective you've only been able to see my back over the table*
Then you should be happy to hear that she's stable, right now.

<Snipped quote by Codify>

What did you do?

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*Sighs and crouches down to you*
Embarrassment is a fool's emotion. There's no point in holding yourself in such high esteem that you put what other people think above your own safety, happiness, or health. True self-esteem comes not from the approval of others, but from your approval of yourself. Embarrassment comes from wanting the approval of others, and feeling that you fail to have it. It's not something to ever worry about, okay?
