"Evening" Esras said in polite response as Sweet Thing passed him. He flinched and shut his eyes as he closed the door, he knew that Ben didn't like Sweet Thing but she was hoping that he would have the good sense not to say anything about it. Esras wasn't even all that fond of him, but he was their leader and his sister seemed to have quite the liking for him for some odd reason, and one had to admit that he deserved a bit of respect for the operation he had running beneath The Candidate's nose.
He bolted the door and flipped the switch that would illuminate the light that indicated the surgery was unavailable. "We're all doing pretty well." Esras added after Ben did his Hello's and screw you's "Attie is a few days back on her feet, her breathing is fine and she's mostly off the pain medication." he stuffed his hands into his pocket and leaned back against an exam table opposite Sweet Thing. "And yourself? Unfortunately I have to assume that not all is well if you're making a personal house call."
