Considering Newton had drifted with a Kaiju for a full twenty-five minutes, Hermann expected something alarming to show up in the MRI. Then there was the matter of their supposed connection. More pressing was why Newton might have refused any and all blood tests. The man had expressed (reasonable) concern over the radiation, after all. Granted, they knew from Hermann's blood tests that everything was fine now..
He kicked out his right foot in an attempt to dissuade the hand going for his medical chart. "Honestly Newton, have some decency."
The man knew, had known before, and now he knew the full extent of his condition that Hermann had never bothered to explain before, but the defensive reaction was practically knee-jerk by now.
"No noticeable deterioration," he summarized with a sigh. And wasn't that a surprise. "I'm told the initial injection could possibly mean no further advancement, but it hasn't been tested."
He didn't appreciate being a guinea pig, but there was no getting rid of the nanites at this point. It should be good news, but Hermann was long past having any real hope for improvement. He occupied himself with extracting another- the last? - cookie from within its crinkly packaging.
