"Yes, yes, I'm back, Dana." Dr. Sloan said as he stood at the nurse's station. "I take it you missed me a bit."

"I think we all did!" Nurse Dana Shandy said. "It hasn't been quite the same since you've been out. I see you've, uh..."

"Recovered nicely is the term I think you're looking for." He said with a smile. "It didn't hurt that her body was in very good shape, and that we have a great staff here."

"'Recovered nicely' is an understatement! Just, what's with the old nurse's dress and the heels? You are not operating in those."

He had to laugh at that. That wasn't an order from her, it was merely a statement of fact.

"I know, but I thought, why not do this? I think this shows how comfortable I am with my new body coming in like this. Plus I've never been known to for my conventionality when it came to personality."

"You just wanted to cosplay as a cute nurse and not get immediately sent home by HR, right?" She said with a smile.

He smiled warmly and laughed.

"You caught me, but the rest," he said with a pointed finger. "Is true!"

"I never said it wasn't." She chuckled. "Well, good to have you back, and, oh, did you bring another pair of shoes?"

"Uh, no, why?"

"What size are you?"

"A seven, I think. Why?"

"Well, fun fact about high heels, you're not going to want to wear them all day. When your feet start to hurt, I have a spare pair of shoes."

"I'll keep that in mind, and Dana, thank you. Now, though, I think I need to go let some people know I'm here. I have a feeling not everyone is going to be as happy about this as you are, but still, here's hoping. Wish me luck!"
