You stood beside 049 carefully watching his skilled hands cut open a corpse,
"I...that..humm.." you say unsure how to go about this.
"Out with it." 049 says with a teasing note.
"That will not work." You say softy. 049 stops and look up at you.
"Oh?" He says surprised. His grey eyes, glimmered vibrantly in delight.
"You have made that mistake before, when I first arrived." You say grabbing a scalpel. "Here try this." 049 steps aside as you look into the body and remove the liver. "See last time you dropped the stomach but the muscles here and here stop the flow of bile. So instead why not enlarge this valve, and move the liver here." 049 laughed softly and nuzzled your cheek with his beak from behind.
"You have been paying attention." 049 said a sound of pure contentment in his voice.
"Of course I have." You say, not telling him that you also watched countless hours of his past surgeries, a countless number of times. You kiss his beak and rub back against it.
"Did you take into account the saturation of the soft tissues?" 049 asked. You turn around and gaze into his eyes.
"You know I can not sense it as you can." You reply draging a hand longingly down to his hip.
"I still need to remove the brain for study." 049 said his voice shaking slightly. As you dig your nails in lightly.
"I can do it for you." You offer kissing the corner of his mouth. His eyes close and you felt his hand grip your side tightly.
"Can you now." 049 whisper as he placed a hand on the small of your back pushing you closer to him.
"Mmmm. I noticed you started using the Y incision I told you about." You humm happily grinding into him. "Has it helped."
"Yes, it is quiet effective." 049 answered his finger brushing your lips. "I have been meaning to thank you."
"Oh?" You reply, "what do you have in mind."
"Patience my dear." 049 replied smiling. "I must finish my work for the day before such thing can be done." You cross your arms and pout but continue on with the operation with no complaints. You knew this body would not raise again. Not this time, this corspe was too old so 049 had decided to strictly try out experimental ideas he had been toying with. Alot of the older corspes were mainly used now in this way, he seemed much more focused. 049 told you the main reason regrettable it was too late for them was decay seem to rob them of something making the process impossible. Dr.Itkin though extremly skeptical seem to slowly be coming around as your note books on his procedures were made public with Dr.Narváez giving the main push. He said the translation from alien thought into common understanding was paramount to the foundation understand of Alagadda. You move to the head and begin the delicate process of extracting the brain. 049 watched closely over your shoulder as you explained the purpose to various parts. Unsurprisingly he was picking up on everthing unnaturally quick. Infact many remarked that it reminded them of you and your absurdly easy absorption of crytobiology. 049 asked several questions making his notes and drawing sketchs in his book. For the life of you, you just could not understand what the hell it said, the langue completely unrecognizable. 049 was stunned by this but concluded it was due to your weakened state. Placing the brain on the medical tray you call out for the body to be removed.

049 stood in the yellow circle as the body was covered and wheeled out. Raven went to the sink and began to wash her hands and remove her surgical gear. 049 eyes found there way to her long legs and traveled up slowly but surely to her hips and then her small waist finally resting for a moment on her ample breasts.
"Your staring." She said teasingly. 049 looked down quickly a warm blush of embrassment touching him. "Did you see something you liked?" 049 cleared his throat,
"My apologies." He said his chest feeling warm. "I..Mph!" 049 muffled as she kissed him. It was a rough and passionate, his mask digging into her face, he hungryily devoured her back it had been far to long. The loud screech of the microphone being knocked over made her break away as they both looked toward the glass window.
"Sorry." Dr.Itkin said over the com. "That was my fault."
"049 I need to ask you something?" Raven said. "It is a bit on the private side though."
"And what would that be," 049 asked
"Is it true that you are married?" She asked clearly nervous. 049 fell silent for a moment as he closed his eyes trying to recall. It was always difficult remembering his past, but he felt she should know the turth.
"Yes, I believe I was." 049 said off handily.
"So your divorced?" Raven replied.
"I do not know what that is." 049 stated picking out a few bottles of herbs.
"Baiscally it anulls the marriage." She says walking toward him. "It undose the vows taken."
"I can not recall." 049 replied. "Though we did not make vows." Raven seemed extremely fustrated with his response,
"What was her name." She asked softly.
"Catherine, I believe, yes that is right." 049 replies. "She was I believe the daughter of my mentor." Raven crossed her arms almost cradling herself. "It was a pairing of convenience, nothing more. I was simply getting on in years and so was she." 049 finished as he began to weight out his ingredients.
"Getting on in years?" Raven asked.
"Yes." 049 replied unsure. "It is difficult to remember. I could not have been much older then you are now."
"25 is old." Raven said stunned.
"At the time, yes. Catherine was 19 her father greatly feared she would become an old maid." 049 said. "So he approached me with an offered his practice for me to take her hand." Raven smiled and laughed dryly,
"Dear God that is so young." She repiled.
"I suppose now, it does seem that way. Most women however married at 16." 049 said pausing he added. "I never cared for their immaturity, it was bothersome."
"Was your wife beautiful?" Raven quietly asked.
"She had a classic beauty about her." 049 said as he filled a beaker with water. "However it hid her cruel and spoiled nature." Raven sat on his bed clearly deep in thought. "How did you come across this?" 049 asked looking side long at her.
"035." Raven replied. " I believe I have also seen her in your memories but honestly I thought she was merely your friend."
"Yes I could see why." 049 said pausing his mind had begun to hurt as he dug deeper yet into his memories.
"Did you love her?" She asked a note of sadness to her voice.
"No," 049 said firmly. "She and I were at constant odds."
"Why did you stay with her? Why did you not leave?" Raven askes
"Honestly I could not be bothered. My work was of far greater importance to expend the effort required." He replied off handily. Raven stood and walked rapidly away. "Raven?" 049 felt concerned she rarely acted this way.
"035 said she left you." She whispered her body turned away.
"It was more mutual then he makes it sound my dear." 049 said an uneasiness settling in his stomach.
"Why did you not tell me?" She asked.
"I did not think it was of importance." 049 answered honestly.
"Your married!" She replied loudly. "I would consider that important." 049 sighed heavily his head now had a painful ache, 035 as usual smeem to be making his life extremely difficult.
"We had parted ways." 049 replied. "Hence the lack of importance. We do not have." 049 stopped trying to recall the word Raven used.
"Divorce." Raven said.
"Yes." 049 replied.
"So you will always be hers." Raven said her voice full of anger and hurt. 049 paused for a moment to rub his temples, the head ache was only growing worse. Turning he began to mix together some herbs in hope of relief.
"I am not." 049 said firmly "hers as you state. We are no longer- please my dear would you boil some water." Raven did as she was asked her eyes avoiding him.
"I was a mistress once." She began quietly, "Used by someone I trusted for pleasure. I hurt a very good women and her two children. I will not be one again."
"I see." 049 said, "so you feared I am doing the same."
"Can you blame me?" She asked turning up the burner.
"I can not." 049 said dumping the herbal mixture into the water. "I ask you trust me. On my honor Catherine and I are no more." Raven takes a moment for quiet contemplation,
"I trust you." Raven replies, "I am sorry, I know your very private."
"Do not apologize." 049 said, "I understand your concerns." Raven embraces him from behind,
"Jealousy sucks." She mumbles. 049 can not help but chuckle, turning around he sees she is blushing.
"My Raven are you perhaps envious of my attentions being drawn away." 049 said. She tried to turn away but 049 took hold of her chin and held her still.
"Yes." She replied.
"Hummm then I shall have to do something to assure you are all I desire." 049 said. Raven's golden eyes looked up at him in pure unhindered affection and need. "Tell me my Raven what is it you wish of me." 049 said as he traced her lips with his thumb. Her eyes fluttered shut as she let out a breathy moan and took his thumb in her mouth sucking on it. 049 felt control melt away as she released his now wet digit from her hot mouth.
"Dr.Crow, Scp 049 the retrieval team is here." Dr.Itkin called over the com.
