Seeing your Tav's shiny new eye reminded of a dnd/bg3 oc I thought of. He's a doctor (yes, he is dressed in plague doctor garbs) who can summon a nurse and doctor familiars to assist him.
Anyway, one vivid scene I remember having with him is when Tav decides to get the magic eye from Volo. He just goes on a full-on (trying very hard to keep his anger and annoyance under wraps because WHY?!) tirade on how irresponsible it was of Tav to trust Volo, a bard who DREAMT of performing a lobotomy. And then Volo just puts the magic eye in?! No cleaning or disenfection? What if Volo did manage to kill the worm? How would he get it out, hm? Would he leave it in your brain for you contract by another infection? Dig around to attempt to fish it out and very likely causing even more damage? *sigh* Sit down, he'll clean your wound. Nurse, please prepare the materials for the patient.
That was long, sorry for throwing that at you 😅
PLEASE never apologise for dropping by to share OC info dumps and snippets!!! I LOVE it!!
I love the sound of your tired and (justifiably) ranty doctor!!! Thank you so much for sharing and brightening my very drizzly and grey Friday!!
