[ ... quelle surprise. Someone took her up on her offer after all. Secretly, she was hoping they would. Having watched the video portion with only vague curiosity, she defaults to a voice reply without thinking. Rather gently ]

... R-R-R-Robert. Y-Y-Y-You may h-h-have a m-m-moment.

Thank you... [By this point, Robert's probably speaking instead of writing anyway, since it's likely Don has woken up and left the room by now.

His tone is a little quivery still, but... he's noticeably trying to keep it calmer.]

Ah, w-well. I was wondering if perhaps it... might not be i-impossible to request that the Battle Dome clinic have an MRI and a PET scanner included amongst its technology...

... I feel that it would be... helpful for all the villagers.

[The way Robert is talking to Molly makes it obvious that he thinks Molly might actually care about this part... unlike most Malnosso.

Sentimental? Yes he is. Maybe he's misplacing his trust, but... but it's worth a shot, right?]

[ There is a long silence. ]

... i-i-i-it w-w-w-w-will take some time.

I understand... I d-do not mind waiting.

... It should hopefully not be necessary anytime soon. [As far as Robert would know, anyway.]

... Thank you for considering the request, at least.

... [Softer:] Is... everything alright for you, at the moment...?

O-O-O-O-Of course.

[ Going forward, Molly will be true to her word. Anywhere in two to three weeks' time -- it's up to you! -- the requested MRI and PET scanner will both turn up in the battle dome clinic.

But coming back to the present moment, there is a brief pause as she considers his question. ]

It's ... quiet. [ Her words are carefully considered. But, somewhat more hesitantly -- and genuinely ] ... I-I-I-I-I'm doing w-w-well.

I am glad to hear that.

[And he is. He... really is. Even though the Malnosso tortured Raph... he really doesn't think that she had anything to do with it.]

I... I-I, er, did... want to speak to you again.

... And, h-hopefully it is not... problematic if I d-do so.

[It might be a kind of insanity, trying to strike up a friendship - a friendship - with a Malnossian...

Especially when these connections are likely monitored.]
