[The view today isn't Muraki's apartment, but the lobby of an office building in Somni so freshly repaired that the pale blue paint on the walls is still damp.

...The dolls are a creepy touch, mate.

Right. Well, good luck with that.

[playsdoctor]

Do drop by if you need medical care.

Like I said, dolls, creepy vibe, et cetera. No offense and all, you're probably smashing, but...

[But you give off that dark magic, sketchy sort of 'lurks in hallways breathing' feel, so probably not James' first choice.]

I think I've got myself covered. Though thanks, hey.
