She's never liked doctors.
Ever. She hated the smell of the offices, the stethiscopes, the needles, the popsickle sticks, the cotton balls and swabs, the little device they stuck in the patient's nose and ears, the feel of rubber gloves... Ugh.
Deep down, even child Lottie knew this was because doctors had failed to save her mother. She had later found out from Big Daddy that he brought in numerous doctors too, but it didn't matter. Her mother was taken from her anyways.
"Hi there, doctah..."
Nope. Not budging from that doorway.

Seems with this one, it was the case.
"Come on in. Just sit on down. Don't worry bout the table. There's just a chair right there."
Maybe the chair would help.

Lottie warily took a few unsure steps before scurring over to the chair.
"S-so... what's goin' t'happen now?"

"I jus' wanna know about you. I'll go first. Tell you a little somethin' about me. When I was a kid, growin' up on the Kansas plains, every autumn those leaves would fall and it'd be beautiful. Then the rain would come and I was a snifflin' mess. Made my nose act right up. Mold. I don't like mold. Well, I don't mind it, but my body does. Studyin' with the medicine men taught me how to get rid of all that sufferin'."
He leaned forward in his chair, setting an arm across one of his legs.
"What about you?"

"W-well... I lived in N'ahlans all my life, with Tiana and Big Daddy... Then there was some voodoo and things happened and now Tia and I are here."
Aheh.
Poor Lottie. That didn't really tell him all too much; life story doesn't equal "a little something", but she's so nervous she kind of skated over that.

He shrugged, as though it were the most normal thing in the world.
"New Orleans? Nice town. Wait. Holdup. Tiana? Tiana Sweet? That's my niece! And a Sweet she is. She still making a mean beignet?"

Lottie just stared for a minute.
Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. DING.
"What?! No way! What a small world!" Holy keysmashing, Batman!
"And yes, she's still th'bes' cook t'evah walk N'ahlans, though not too many people know that!"

He was curious about Tiana, mostly because he'd heard she was up here. Hadn't seen her yet, and the girl was his niece! Not even a hello.

After all, Lottie shared a room with Tiana, and the only real time they spoke was when they wished eachother goodnight, or had a question about where they placed a certain belonging.

He knew he hadn't been around, but hey, Uncle's got a right to be protective.
