[Well well! Look who’s up and running, apparently in a hurry to get out of this place. Malkus Iverwellin’! In such a hurry that he’s completely left his journal behind. He doesn’t seem to be focusing on anything more than leaving this seemingly normal, though absolutely filthy, keep. Just look at this place! Webs and spiders skittering around like

He wasn't really expecting to find someone downed in the hallways as he made his way back to his room. He certainly wasn't expecting to find someone with a spoon stuck to their back. Malkus .. prepare to be saved by the highly androgynous, pretty (and lycanthropic) Alex!]
Hey ..Hey! You alright? [Alex hurries over and touches a hand to the man's shoulder, tone colored with concern.]
Hey, buddy, can you hear me? [He gives a slight shake.]

Huuh... Y-...Yes? Who's there? ...
[No he ain't blind. The doctor just has his head turned away from Alex at the moment and doesn't really have the strength to roll over. The fact that he's stuck to the floor with webbing doesn't help much, either. The best he can do is lift his head up a bit and drop it back down, his mask making a dull "clunk" noise against the floor.]
Oh I-I'm fine, fine. Just on my way out of here... Let me just-...
[No Malkus that's the wrong arm. N-No not that way. No, that's your leg fidgeting now... Dammit why aren't his limbs doing what they're told.
Alright, perhaps the venom is a bit stronger than he had anticipated. Alex shall now be treated to Malkus kicking and wiggling his arms a bit more before finally giving up with a tired sigh.]

Hey, calm down .. it's alright .. [Alex narrowly avoids getting hit with a flailing arm and gently puts his hand atop the offending limb, holding it down.]
I'm Alex .. [Having already heard and seen a few things about the visiting Keep guests he looks over Malkus' fidgeting form.] You get bit by a spider? Just .. hold still ..
[When the man finally stops flailing about Alex shifts and hooks a hand under his armpits.] Let's get you off the floor, alright? [Getting him securely in hand, Alex heaves up Malkus' prone form, getting him turned and sitting upright. He then squats and looks at him.]
Haven't seen you around the Keep .. you new? [Even as he asks, squatted in front of Malkus, Alex's nostrils flare and he scents the man. He doesn't seem like anyone he's scented in the area ..]

[You could probably sense his embarassment. Damn this helplessness.]
Small bite, nothing horrible. I'm fiii- Wh-!
[It doesn't take much to sit Malkus up. He'd take this chance to get up and leave but due to his little outburst a moment ago, he's decided that wont really be an option.
Atleast he can see the person helping him out now, though groggily through half open eyes.]
Pleasure to meet you, Alex. Iiii'm Malkus...
[A tired nod.]
Malkus Iverwelling... I suppose you can consider me new. Though I don't intend to stay for much longer...

Then he spots the mask. Which, of course, he thinks is a face. And doubles back and peers at him from just out of reach.*

Just incase, our doctor kicks his legs out almost as if trying to swim on land...
Escape attempt: Failed]

...you got bit, didn't you?

[The doctor lifts his head, seeming to glance from side to side before resting it back on the floor.]
I'm perfectly fine...
[He lifts his arm, slightly, the sticky web making a skriiitching noise as he does so. See? Fine. Aside from the fact that he should be lifting his left arm instead of his right arm but other than that-...Just fine!]
