WHAT ANOTHER OPENING
WHERE MALL
WHEN Day 25 morning arbitrarily

[ ONE OF THE EMPTY BUSINESSES IN THE MALL SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN TAKEN OVER there's a nicely laid out if barebones reception-area visible from the windows into it, and the door is open. there's a printed out piece of paper with CLINIC - - HELP WANTED attached to a window. inside the reception area there's a little girl sitting in the couch, humming to herself as she draws, and if you step inside Mori is at the desk to greet you - - ]

Welcome!

[the door definitely did not open but this guy is in here now, inspecting the set up]

Good morning.

[has a lava juice and was on his break, he is wearing a suit that manages to make him look a few years older than he is.

wanders inside]

...hey.

Are you actually a doctor?

[

whirs a bit ]

When did you - -?

As real as they come. Really, it's almost insulting to be doubted.

Hm?

[it's open again, now that Mori's taken his eyes off it for a second. what are you even talking about bro??]

[see Dazai.

see Dazai stare at clinic windows.

see Dazai contemplate random rock in a plant display somewhere in the mall.

see Dazai stare at the clinic window again.

. . . gets out his keys instead with the intent to scratch it up. huhuhu delinquency.]

... Ahh, my apologies. I must be seeing things.

It's quite all right. Are you the proprietor of this establishment?

[ you know the nice thing about windows????? you can see through them ]

Oh, Dazai-kun~

[ projecting his voice so he's DEFINITELY easy to hear ]

[ he nods, tips his head politely! ]

Doctor Mori Ougai. It's a pleasure.

[when the fuck did this guy get in the back? because he's not coming in through the front door, instead just sort of. walking into the waiting area from the employees only door, with all the confidence of someone who actually belongs here.]

Aah, good morning!

Good morning - -

[ why can't people come in through the front door like NORMAL PEOPLE ]

... Errr, how long have you been here...?

[flaps his stumpy arm casually.]

Oh, a little while.

[... curses. if he can see Mori of course Mori can see him.

he sighs and tucks his keys away before leaning into the doorway.]

Mori-san. I wasn't aware you had the funds for this just yet.

[ But can you recognize Aki when he's wearing normal, actually cute?? clothes and doesn't have his hair slicked back? ]

Cool, you're a doctor?

My, a legitimate one?

—Though, I suppose it's not like there have been flocks of illegitimate health care providers loitering about. More of a vacuum, really.

It's more that I was surprised someone was here with a useful job skill.

[this superpowerful demon just comes through the front door like a normal person. I mean, not like you can tell. he just looks like a lazy hot guy with a half-ponytail]

I was wondering when this would happen.

I had heard there was a vacuum of any accessible medical treatment, really, fake or real. Only a mysterious hospital that saves people from the brink of death.

Ohh? Are there lots of artists here, or something like that?

Truthfully... It's even less impressive than it looks. Most of this furniture was here already.

Were you hoping for an appointment?

[ it seems to take him a moment but he blinks and then nods, clearly recognizing him ]

I'd heard there wasn't even a proper clinic in town... So I'd thought to offer my services.

[ he sighs dramatically, leaning back in his desk chair. ]

So I'm really the first one? That still sounds downright illegal.

That's cool- and hey, you're hiring, huh? What kind of work do you need help with here?
