"I see you"? Some kid crying for their mom? What the hell is this, some kind of twisted game of peek-a-boo?

And who the hell is Ruana?

[The feed flickers and glitches terribly for a little while, before steadying and actually showing something coherent. The sight's a little startling, though. A young woman with a multitude of stitching across her body smiles at the camera, then puts a little space between the terminal and herself before talking. She moves strangely, like she can't quite overcome a bout of dizziness.]

Hello, tower~. It's nice to meet you all. I'm Fran, Fran Madaraki.

I'm one of the newer arrivals, and I have a little proposition to make. I'm a doctor of adequate skill, you see, and I firmly believe there should be some amount of choice for people seeking medical aid. If you'd prefer to be treated by the regular staff in the infirmary, well, that's quite alright. But if you'd rather not?

I'll be here~~.

[Germany is back, finally. With his muscles back in place, it appears he's back to his old self.]

...I appear to be back to normal. Though I don't understand how it's possible.

[Sigh.] I suppose what matters most is that I am no longer incapacitated.

That is all.

[The screen pops on, and the video feed shows Eiji sitting at the computer. Ankh's in the background, either pacing around, or just kicking it against a shelf, waiting for Eiji to do whatever dumb thing he's come here to do. He doesn't get why he had to come along...]

Greetings, everyone - my name is Hino Eiji. Back there--[He pauses to turn and find Ankh, then motions at him.]--is my friend, Ankh. In the last several days, it's come to my attention that a number of you have been victim to harassment by him, for which I would like to apologize - he's a fellow from a rather underdeveloped place, and he had a rather terrible upbringing which has resulted in his bad behavior--"

And now, Ankh cuts in - "What the hell are you telling them, idiot?!"

Ignore. ♥
