Both. She plays the base and she sings. She can drum too, but that is mostly Gorgug's job.

[But, oh wait. The Surgery. Riz is more than happy to talk about that particular bit of insanity, his hands coming up to jot and shoot through the air, illustrating events as he speaks.]

Okay, so, this happened last year, when we were dealing with Kalvaxus and the missing girls. We had one girl who was trapped in a palimpsest-- a sort of crystal [he adds, assuming Boober won't be too familiar with the phrase] but we needed to get her out. There was this guy-- we fucked up, we shouldn't have trusted him, but we didn't know that yet, but anyway, he was going to help us get her out.

Except then suddenly he lets us know he can't help anymore cause he's in the hospital. So we're like, we gotta figure out what happened, you know?

So, me and Fig sneak in. Fig can bullshit her way through anything, and I'm sneaky. It kinda felt like we were the best ones for the job, you know? But actually, it turned out Fig was a little too good at the bullshitting, cause before we could even get to our guy, some nurse dragged her into the operating room cause they actually thought she was a doctor.

[Riz gives Boober a very serious look.]

Boober, Fig doesn't know anything about Medicine. She once carried around a dead oyster for weeks cause she couldn't tell it was dead. So obviously I had to follow her in.

Anyway, there was this guy suffering from Mummy Rot. Just... this ancient cursed being that was trying to ingulf this dude in sand. And Fig's just... trying to toss some spells at the thing. She's a bard. The only medicine thing she's got is Healing Word. It's not like she could actually do anything.

So I shot the thing with my gun, and that is how we did surgery. I guess those first aid classes I've been taking paid off.

[Deep breath. Info dump done.]
