Kuri opened the cell door. "Hey! I went to the library today. Here's the books you asked for!"

Kaneki relaxed from his attack pose. "Thank you."

"You look a bit upset." Kuri settled next to him, nonplussed. "Was Arima hard on you again?"

Kaneki sighed. "Yes…"

"Well this will cheer you up!" Kuri held up the book he wanted.

Kaneki brightened. "You got it!"

"Yes!" Kuri smiled, then frowned at him. "But we need to change your bandages and assess your wounds first." She cleared her throat. "Arima has been bugging me about preforming surgery on you. I told him I wouldn't do it without consent, so we haveta talk about that today."

Kaneki pouted. "Do we have to…."

"Don't worry." Kuri said. "It won't hurt. And I'll be quick about it."

Kaneki looks at her, trustingly. "Alright then."

"Undress." Kuri said firmly.

Kaneki blinked. "What?!"

Kuri laughed. "You dork. Keep your boxers on! And be grateful I'm taking over for the CCG doctors. Cuz they just wanna torment the Ghoul."

Kaneki huffed and stripped to his boxers.

Kuri came closer and examined his head. "The damage sure is extensive…" Kuri traced his skull. "I think Arima is right, surgery might be the best option. How do you feel about that Kaneki..?" Kuri's face was seriously close to his.

Kaneki blushed. "I-I don't know…will it actually help?"

"If I preform surgery it will heal you completely. But…I want your consent." Kuri said softly

"Then do it." Kaneki said firmly.
