Heh, thanks. You're a nice guy, you know that?

[recession]

Uh-huh.

Don't see much point in being an asshole for no reason, that's all.

[segnale]

... And very humble too, I see...

[recession]

Is that humble?

[segnale]

You're downplaying your good qualities, so I think it counts!

[recession]

Aren't you a flatterer.

Keep up the optimism. It's good.

...

Though of course, no need to force yourself either.

[segnale]

[...]

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. But I'm pretty good at staying positive, if I do say so myself.

[recession]

Great.

Guess you'd know your limits best.

[segnale]

Yep! [does not mention she sometimes ignores those limits] So you don't have to worry about me.

[recession]

[ Ma'am. ]

Sure, sure. If you say so.

[segnale]

Those sound like the words of a disbeliever...

[recession]

Just wanting to keep a healthy amount of doubt.

Can't trust a doctor that takes every "I'm fine" at face value.

[segnale]

You're a doctor? [a beat] Right, your profile did say something about medicine, didn't it...

[recession]

Mhm. Stitches, bandages, splints and all that.

[ The whole package... pakkeg. ]

[segnale]

[nods...]

I only know healing magic and a bit of first aid myself, so it's reassuring to have a proper doctor like you around here!

[recession]

Just a tiny bit concerning how many people have told me that, actually... but I understand the sentiment.

Still, I'm not the only one. Let's hope we won't need to tap into our collective knowledge though.

[segnale]

Well, more than one of you showed up injured, so can you really blame us for being excited for doctors...

[good thing no one knows about cyoas yet]

Here's hoping! If you ever need an assistant or anything, you can give me a shout too.

[recession]

True. Hopefully we keep it at just the "showing up" part.

[ Man. CYOAs. ]

Oh...? Sure. If you're offering. Hopefully it won't be so bad as to need to bother you too much, but it's nice to have the people around.

[segnale]

I've got your back, then! And it'd be nice to maybe pick up a thing or two from you, honestly.

[recession]

You can ask me any time, then.

[segnale]

I'll take you up on that, so don't go taking it back later!
