There were only three full-time people in Gyoukumen's research staff. Nii decided that they should get another one to help balance the workload - which was why they were gathered around one of the lab's many metal tables and looking at the... thing Nii was holding in a sitting position. It had a huge round head, a red shirt, squishy limbs, and large floppy white ears.
"Minna-san," said the doctor, the mildly amused smirk on his face reflecting his playful tone. "Meet Shiro-chan, my assistant. He will be working with us starting today." Then, in an odd falsetto voice: "Hi, I'm Shiro!" Nii held one of its arms with a free hand and moved it sideways, mimicing a wave. "It's nice to meet you all!" The cheerful voice was very much out of place in a room full of books, tables, computers, chemicals, and medical equipment.
Wanroshi chuckled and waved back. Huang wasn't as amused, and she let her coworker feel her displeasure by reminding him, in clipped tones, that Gyoukumen Koushu-sama expected an update the next day, and he still hasn't turned in all of his notes yet.
"Hai, hai, Madame Class President," said Nii, tucking the stuffed rabbit under his arm and heading towards his desk. He was sure that Huang would get used to his new companion eventually. A little persuation wouldn't hurt though, and he made a mental note to deliberately leave the ashtray full when she would come by later to get the research documentation.
