Short-term memories, however, aren't so quick to return. How he got here, who is responsible for his being here, he can't remember. The memories that do stir, old memories, conjure a brewing black mood within the doctor.<br/><br/>His hand goes to his face. His mask. But why leave it on? Curious. No restraints, either. Curiouser and curiouser. Eyes sweep over the assembled. Some are unknown to him, others warrant a dim recognition, at least one face, an old classmate he hasn't seen in years, that seems incongruous in this setting, among these rogues – but all other thoughts are brushed aside as his eyes fix on<em>her</em>, the one that confirms his worst suspicions (hardly can they be called fears anymore).<br/><br/>In an instant, long, sinuous mechanical limbs spring to life, telescoping from the apparatus fused to his spine, lifting him up into the air, propelling him forwards toward her. "<em>You!</em>" he hisses. The fact that his former classmate is here, likely a hostage as he once was, the fact that he is surrounded by adversaries, likely Krait's criminal associates, the fact that he was unconscious in the same room as her and therefore was likely subdued by the assembled, all cold hard facts, but the details are missed, overpowered by the roiling, seething emotion within the Kraken at the sight of the woman who had taken him hostage once, who had made him feel helpless and afraid: Krait.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">Kraken initiative result 14.
