(For a moment, all that can be seen is Naruse's hand before the communicator is placed to one side: evidently, he'd been moving various items and hadn't been paying a huge amount of attention. As he puts it down, he looks off to one side, what can be seen of his expression looks a little surprised

Um... um... [omgwhatdoidoomgomg]
...let me ask Chopper. We... can probably make a house call.

If you could let me know as soon as you can, thank you.

We're on our way. Where's your apartment?

He was now inside the apartment, looking up at Naruse with a stern, serious look. There was no time to worry about the awkwardness of meeting a new person and explaining the whole talking reindeer thing. Someone needed help, and he was there to help them.]
My name is Chopper, and I'll be helping Shiori. Could I see her please? And while I treat her, could I please know about anything that happened before she fainted?

Leading Chopper to Shiori's room -- he'd placed her on her bed -- he absent mindedly brushed at his shirt, as if to attempt to remove any creases. He remained quiet for a few moments, frowning a little.)
As far as I'm aware, she was simply preparing food. However, she'd seemed a little ill for a couple of days.
(He fell quiet again; perhaps he should have said more, insisted that she rest more -- although he somehow doubted whether she would have truly done so. In the comparatively short time that Naruse had really known Shiori, it was evident that she always put others ahead of herself.)
Is there anything in particular you'd like to know?

She wasn't really sure what to ask, unfortunately, so she just went with Chopper, carrying things and ready to get whatever Chopper told her to. Since he knew what he was doing.]

Can you bring me a chair please? Or just something big enough for me to stand on so I can exam her a little better?
[He turned his head toward Naruse once more.] When did you notice that she wasn't feeling well? How has she been eating, and has she been under any stress? Working or moving around, anything that would keep her busy for a long amount of time?

There's one in the main room you can use.
(He turned back towards Chopper, thinking over the last couple of days.) She works at the Northern Lights. As far as I'm aware she's been eating, but it's been a little less than normal. I noticed a couple of days ago.
(He paused.)
She has a habit of placing her needs second.

Oh, Shiori... why so selfless? Anemone sighed softly.] She's so sweet... I hope she'll be okay.

Then that was probably the cause. Just some built-up stress and neglect to the body. She needs some rest of course and she should be checked every once in a while to see how she's doing, and you need to make sure she eats and drinks plenty of fluids. A few days should do it, but she shouldn't go back to work immediately right after.
[Chopper sat properly on the chair and glanced at Naruse once more.] It's okay to take care of other people, but it's not any help if you just end up hurting yourself at the same time. We need to be able to take care of ourselves as well as others.

I had thought that was the case. (A momentary pause.) I'll make sure she eats and drinks enough.
(He nodded slightly as Chopper continued.) Of course. I'm quite aware of that. However-- (He glanced back towards Shiori, not finishing the sentence.)

However... what?
