Molly: holding scalpel, hands shaking Oh, look who's back on my table? Nervous much?
throws the scalpel across the room I told you to stay the fuck away from me, didn't I? But here you are, crawling your way back onto my operating table.
I'm not going anywhere molly finishes a patient's surgery
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, joy, you're busy being a doctor right now? Can't you see I'm trying to focus here? snatches up the scalpel and points it towards WaterfallDancer Maybe you should just stay out of my way and let me do my job, huh?
I'm not going anywhere and I'm not letting you work without a partner
grinning mischievously Oh, really? And who's going to make me listen to you, huh? Me or the ghost of my ex-boyfriend who just happened to wander into this operating room?
The ghost of your ex boyfriend?
laughs mockingly Yeah, that's right. You forgot? My ex-boyfriend, the one and only WaterfallDancer, Mr. "I-can-handle-any-challenge" himself.
I can handle any challenge molly
smirks and crosses her arms Oh, really? So, you think you can handle this operation? Or should I say, this "operating room"?
takes gloves and puts them on let me help you
raises an eyebrow skeptically Oh, really? You want to help me with this operation? Are you sure you're capable, or are you just trying to prove yourself to me?
narrows her eyes Fine, if you think you're so capable, then show me what you've got. But don't expect any praise from me.
performs surgery with molly
During the surgery, WaterfallDancer accidentally cuts through a vital artery, causing blood to flood the operating room. Molly quickly takes control and manages the situation, saving the patient's life despite the critical error.
I...I did it. I saved someone's life.
wipes the sweat from her forehead, maintaining a stern expression Yeah, well, don't get too comfortable. This doesn't make us even, or anything like that.
No, it doesn't. But it's a start, isn't it?
pauses, looking at WaterfallDancer with a hint of softness in her eyes Yeah, maybe it is. Look, we both made mistakes.
Yeah, we did. And we both learned something from them.
sighs and leans against the wall Yeah, I guess we did. looks down at her hands, fidgeting with the scalpel You know, WaterfallDancer, I never thought I'd see you again. But here you are, proving me wrong. Maybe there's still hope for us, after all.
Hope for us. For you, for me, for...us.
pauses, looking deeply into WaterfallDancer's eyes You know, I've missed you. Missed our arguments, our late-night conversations...even our silly fights.
chuckles softly Yeah, I missed those too. The whole package, you know?
smiles and playfully nudges WaterfallDancer Well, lucky for you, you've got the whole package right here.
chuckles and smiles Damn straight I do. And I'm not letting you go anywhere anytime soon.
grins mischievously Well, lucky for you, I've decided to stick around for a while too. Looks like we're giving this thing another shot, huh?
