[Spoken quietly in Japanese to herself, her voice is shaky and anyone who can pick up on this kind of stuff should be able to tell she's scared out of her mind] ... This is crazy... This kind of stuff... doesn't happen. Not in real life...

[She takes a deep breath, the next time she speaks, her voice is calm and confident, if not slightly forced.]

Comments

[returnzero]

... Huh. I didn't know you were a doctor. So you were serious about checking up on me.

[tomoyoshida]

Mostly.

[returnzero]

'Mostly'?

[tomoyoshida]

There's no fun in telling, Jack.

[returnzero]

....???

In any case. I'm actually wounded. It's not so bad, but... I'd really like to make sure and have a doctor look at it.

[tomoyoshida]

Well, you can come here or meet me at the clinic. That's up to you.

How bad is it?

[returnzero]

Not that bad. I'll meet you at the clinic. How will I recognize you?

[tomoyoshida]

Well, I'm absolutely gorgeous, for one.

[Have a general description of what she looks like]

I'll see you there.

[returnzero]

[laughs] Right.

((comment log much?))

[It took a lot of running, but Tomokai did indeed manage to make it to the clinic in one piece. As inconspicuously as she can manage, she takes a moment to catch her breath before walking fully into the clinic to keep an eye out for Jack.]

[Jack didn't have a long way to go to the clinic, so he expected that he would be there before Tomokai-- so he waited in the lobby, taking a seat, taking a good look at every woman that entered the clinic. He just hoped he wouldn't come across as a creepy old pervert or something like that.]

[Eventually, a gorgeous young woman entered that fit her description. Not leaving anything to chance, Jack waved with one hand.]

...Hey?

[log tiems!]

[tomoyoshida]

Jack?

[He looked older than he sounded, which did surprise her for a moment but then, she'd spoken to Sonic the Hedgehog the other day and that coupled with everything she'd seen so far... old men were hardly anything to gawk at.]

[Smiling, she waved back and walked over and took a seat next to him, rubbing a bit nervously at the back of her neck since this was just a little bit like meeting someone off the internet and that was just a little bit weird for her... but then she'd also told him where she was staying with no real hesitation.]

... So. How am I helping you today?

[log tiems!]

[returnzero]

... I hope you're not disappointed that I don't look as charming as I probably sounded.

[He looks at her, chuckling a little. He's not a very flirty person, and when he was younger, he'd always felt slightly uncomfortable around women that weren't The Boss. But he's different now.]

[He slips out of his still stained trenchcoat, exposing his left arm. It's bandaged, The Boss had taken care of it before, but given that it was inflicted by a goddamn Regenerator taking a bite out of him... having a doctor look after it isn't a bad idea. Besides, it's a good excuse to meet up with Tomokai. He's actually a little tired of dealing with Snake and their past all the time, so talking to someone completely neutral... it's a nice prospect.]

This... it's good for now, but the wound was inflicted by an unknown monster and I have no idea what I might have gotten from it, and it's healing up really slowly. Been feeling slightly dizzy the past days, but maybe that's just me.

[log tiems!]

[tomoyoshida]

Maybe, but I'll get over it.

[She gave another smile before getting up to move across the clinic, gathering up some supplies as she went, clean bandages, antiseptic and the like, all balanced precariously in her arms as she returned to her seat. Calmly, she tucked her hair behind her ears and and took Jack's arm, being mindful to not brush over the wound as she unwrapped the bandages to get a better look.]

Mm... whoever took a look at this before me knew what they were doing.

[With a significantly more serious expression than before, she damped some cloth with antiseptic to make doubly sure it was clean. She took a hold of his arm, her grip wasn't so strong, but it was firm, and with her other hand gently began to dab at it with the cloth.]

How long ago did this happen?

[log tiems!]

[returnzero]

Few days ago... yeah, a good friend treated the wound before. She's no doctor, but she knows a whole lot more than I do about injuries and treatment methods.

[Realizes he's rambling and shuts up. He doesn't flinch when Tomokai treats the wound. He barely even registers the pain. He keeps staring at her hands, not wanting to appear as intrusive by constantly looking her into the face.]

...

What about you? Everything been going alright?

[log tiems!]

[tomoyoshida]

Well, it looks fine. The stitches are clean and secure... You said it's healing slow, but... if you're used to healing fast, maybe it's the chip? It's a pretty deep wound though.

[She took a clean bandage, unwrapping it and gently began to re-wrap his arm snugly. She didn't really notice where he was looking while she worked, but she looked up at his face from his arm and smiled again. Though it was somewhat forced in response to his question.]

I've been okay... Just catching my bearings... trying to wrap my head around things.

[Boss stitched him up already, right? If not I'll change it =\]
