"Log Date....210, Today was no good day in the lab, again. But Valz-- Dr. Valentina gives me this thing.....this thing Orca talking into. The-- a thing to talk to, that's what she.... said. But what it used for? I does not know."  She shut the machine off with a click of a button and then heard the automatic sliding door to her room open. It was Valz, her only "friend" here. "What's your gender status today?", she asked with her usual laid-back tone of voice, walking into her room with a clipboard in her hand and slightly biting the pen that she held in the other hand. "Girl...", replied Orca with her slow and tired voice. Orca misses her pod of real orcas (even though she's part shark, part human, but she has the same coloring as an orca, and that's how she got her name) and the ocean water, a lot. But she's fine with staying on land now, she just really wants to go back to the ocean and see if her pod is okay. "Ok.....", Valz jots (mostly doodles) notes onto her clipboard, "By the way, you're going to have a 'talk' with Dr. Shannon today," Orca looks over to Valz in confusion from staring at the machine "Who's Shannon?". "DR. Shannon, Orca, she's 'the most hardworking and greatest Doctor here, much better than me'.....", Valz crosses her arms (with clipboard and pen in hand) and side-eyes the wall in angry thought then sighs, un-crosses her arms, and looks at Orca, "Look, she'll be coming into your room soon, I just came here to tell you that.", Valz was about to leave but she stopped before exiting the room, turned around and said to Orca, "And we are going 'talk' later too...We have someone to meet." Valz exited the room with a smirk, clenched onto her clipboard, and re-starting biting the pen. Orca had a worried look on her face, she isn't the best at meeting new people and becoming "friends", but this week she wanted to "try".
