In any case, that just gets a little light laugh from him. He very unfortunately finds Law's weird "chill with discussing death but also A Doctor" thing extremely intriguing. Bad!]
We really strip these places of everything sharp reaaal fast, huh? I don't even think there are knives left in the kitchen. I'd say we could try with me, but...
[ there are things that oda just goes into so much detail in and other things is like "OKAY BUT I NEED THIS VERY SPECIFIC THING THAT YOU HAVEN'T DEFINED :( HDU...."
this flea with a magnifying glass on this doctor what a fuckin image. ]
Isn't that the point, though? [ hmms but closer. ] We want to see what happens when someone's injured enters one of the pods.
[HOW CAN WE SURVIVE WITHOUT KNOWING THE OP PIRATE VERSION OF A DOCTOR'S OATH.
Yeah look it's fine? It's fine. Stop trying to get the flea into the bath though everyone's trying to get the flea into the bath!! He gives the pod a dubious look...]
You think you can break it and get me out if something weird happens?
[ we just have to live our lives like this but i'm 99% sure there is one because oda is a beast. but wow! maybe there's a reason for why everyone wants to put the flea into the bath???? flea baths are important. ]
Probably. I'd have to get my sword to be more certain about it.
[ in before law and this flea break one of the healing pods because they're Like This. ]
[god bless....... ALSO LOOK, STOP. It's true. It really is true. Put the flea in the bath. Can't believe they're gonna break a fuckin healing pod on day 1 of them having healing pods.]
[ i want to make anna suffer. hi anna we love you uwu....
and i guess law will leave this flea to have a stare down with the pod for however long it takes for law to go back to his room, pick up his sword, and come back with his resting against his shoulder. the sword is as long as he is tall.
BUT WOW what a good doctor, that Law. Mahito blinks, looking a bit surprised for a second, before laughing and waving a hand.]
Alright, I'll take your word.
[AND IN HE GOES...
In the five minutes he's there, nothing seems to happen! And when the door opens again, the only real difference is that the darkest bruises on his torso have faded a shade. Out he moseys, lifting his shirt up and then moving his arms around a little.]
I feel fine? Nothing seems wrong... But it looks like you'd have to be in there a really long time if you wanted to get rid of big injuries, huh?
[ i'm sorry but i just imagined mahito go into there like some sort of poptart set a very short timer. IN HE WENT AND DING! POPS OUT A SLIGHTLY TOASTED(?) POPTART.
either way law's going to frown at what this means. kind of makes sense to him, honestly. the more severe injury then the longer dip into the tank.... he kind of wants to know just what it means.... what is the threshold.... ]
Looks like it. [ since he has his sword, he'll hold it out and tap/nudge mahito a bit with the end of the scabbard. ] Nothing feels out of place? You didn't grow anything new in those five minutes, did you?
[YEAH THAT'S HIM... A POPTART THAT GOT LIGHTLY TOASTED or de-toasted apparently. De-bruised, de-toasted...
He also kind of wants to know, though, and he looks like he's considering getting back in. On the OTHER HAND... he doesn't want to press his luck.]
Hm... [HE'S NUDGED AND AN EXTRA LEG APPEARS. Nah just kidding, he's totally fine, though he's flexing his fingers and bending his arms at the elbow as if to double-check.] ...Yeah! Nothing new, nothing seems wrong. It doesn't feel any different... Like, it doesn't hurt any more or less? It's just the bruising.
[ shame. no extra limbs for this flea. he will be stuck with his normal two hand instead of his actual twenty other limbs that exist on the astral plane. ]
Then it's just as you've said, if you were in there longer then we'd see different results. I wonder how long you'd need to be in there to heal something as severe as a broken limb.
[ big doctor thinks, but he isn't about to break someone's arm to test this. even if it's tempting on some base level for him. ]
[He misses his astral plane hands more and more every day...]
Mmm... Maybe a few hours? [Pats the pod.] That whole "if you aren't satisfied with the results" thing is kind of concerning, though. Makes it sound like the longer you stay in there, the higher the risk of something weird happening, right?
[He should never be allowed to have his hands... his flands... flea hands......]
Oooh... Yeah, that might be it, too. [He taps his chin again, and then shrugs.] Well! If I end up more injured, I'll give it a go, as long as you stand guard.
[IT IS REALLY UNFORTUNATE. Good(???) thing they won't need to go out of their way to test this theory. Thanks... weird fuckin group of people who just vanished and reappeared covered in salsa......]
Thanks! I'll come find you if that happens then, okay?
You got it! I'll let you know if I see any of the missing stuff in here turn up anywhere either, but I'm sure people are holding it all pretty close by now, hah.

I do, and it's something that I mostly live by. I don't want to kill unless I have to, but I'm not asking anyone to die right now.
[ even though he's been totally down for murdering people in this place?? sometimes. you're both okay and not okay with murder. ]
...well, without any scalpels or other instruments here, I'm not sure how we'd take care of it right now.

[He glances down at himself.
He's like, covered in injuries.]
Not sure I wanna spend a long time in there.

but herro again flea. ]

Anyway Mahito will raise a hand when he returns.]
Wow, pretty impressive.
[Nice sword ya got there huhu. Anyway!! TIME?? TO GET IN THE POD??? AND SEE WHAT MYSTERIES AWAIT........]
O-kay! In I go! I'll give it five minutes, first. I'm trusting you with my life!
no subject
Just hope it's impressive enough to get you out of there when it matters.
[ and into the bath you go flea! law will be a good and dutiful attending doctor and will watch him. ]
As a doctor, I won't let you die. I'll act if something looks off.
[ he means this. ]
no subject

no subject
Probably, or maybe, there's a threshold of how much it can heal no matter how long you spend inside of the pods.
[ he'll tap the pod with his sword and have a short think. ]
Only one way to find out, of course.
[ :') dramatic irony. ]
no subject
Oooh... Yeah, that might be it, too. [He taps his chin again, and then shrugs.] Well! If I end up more injured, I'll give it a go, as long as you stand guard.
[LITTLE DO THEY KNOW!!]
no subject
Let's try to avoid getting hurt in the first place here, but if anything does happen where these pods are more ideal, then I'll stay nearby.
[ frydog.gif except it's law for a flea and that's actually really unfortunate. BUT TRULY....little do they know. ]
no subject
Thanks! I'll come find you if that happens then, okay?

Sure. Just don't make a scene of it or stumble out of a closet suddenly drenched in blood.
[ haha. ]
