"Man...That's a shame." The Digital World was still working towards its goal of a digital doctor, but they still had a long ways to go. So, he was hoping maybe he would have an option here, but, that was a little too hopeful, clearly.

"That's right! We make a good team, I think!" Daisuke and his partner leaned right into each other when he said that.

"But, uh, anyway. This is pretty cautionary, do you think you'd be any help if V-mon here needed any medical attention? I'm mainly talking physical injury things."

"...Digimon don't get sick..." Wait. "...Do they?"

"Not in that sense."

      ❝ A 'Digimon'? I'm afraid I've never heard the term. ❞

      ❝ Changsheng here isn't a Digimon, though she is my trusted companion. Albeit one that speaks, which makes her a somewhat special case. ❞ The doctor laughs softly through his nose���once, like a hum—before turning his eyes to the little creature at the boy's side with a smile. ❝ I understand this adorable little fellow, too, is your trusted companion? ❞ @miraclescrest — cool critter u have there.

Curious, not everyone was quite daring to traverse this far into the forest.  Upside down, Shadow dropped infront of Baizhu’s face.

“Boo!!”

“What are you doing here?”

[Oh...I thought you were a ghost.] The camera flash had been a little disorienting in the dark of the haunted cabin-- but Puppycat was just sure he’d caught a ghost this time. But checking back...

nope. just some plant guy. damn.

[Have you seen any ghosts around here? I’m trying to get that cash prize, but I can’t find any. Maybe they’re not real.]

Pursing her lips in concentration, she listens to the man’s heartbeat for a few moments.

“Well, your blood pressure is good, if a little on the low side.” Aki removes her stethoscope and writes a few notes in Baizhu’s file. She has a smaller one which she brings to her patient’s house for visits, and a larger one back at her office which includes most of her research notes.

“Have you had much fatigue lately? Dizziness upon standing? Oversleeping?” Gently, she removes the cuff from his upper arm while she speaks and places it back into her travel case.

Aki pauses to give him time to answer and looks out of his living room window. There was a small flurry of snow beginning to come down.

“I hope the weather is treating you well. My roses started their dormancy a little late this year... I think they’re telling me that we’ll have a bitter spring.”

“Oh, this is the place.” Emil smiled at Jujube, his mandragora companion eager to help him complete their little quest together. It had only been gathering herbs, nothing too intense- but the plant monster had clearly been having fun, and that was the important part to him.

“Hello, um.. Mr. Baizhu? I’m here with the herbs you’d requested.” Stepping inside, both he and his monster had a small basket in one hand. He could’ve carried them all himself, sure- but Jujube had insisted on carrying some, and he just couldn’t say no. “Where would you like us to put them?”

Future Herb Garden // CLOSED

@dendrothecary

Zero’s been to Bubu Pharmacy several times now–mostly for the only migraine medicine that has at least tolerable side effects against his Chronos–but he always takes time to marvel at the decor a little. It was comfortably familiar, though much cleaner and well kept than the run down establishments of the Third District.

While there were certainly some restaurants with antiques on display, they were hardly ever taken care of, and blended in with the rest of the lightless muck of color.

Today, he spaces out in front of a garland of dried herbs while he waits for Baizhu, behind the desk where…he probably shouldn’t be. He touches it, a dried leaf coming loose in his hand.

Knowing Baizhu is right around the corner, he tries to lick it and stick it back on, but it won’t come off his tongue. Accidentally swallowing it, he coughs from the dryness and tries recomposing himself a second too late as the apothecary himself walks in.

[Hey.]

[You look beautiful today.]

>“I’m not supposed to be back here. Sorry.”

Not remembering how he got there in the first place it takes him a second to find the other side of the desk where he should be. He’s not so good at judging when someone is comfortable with these things; the two are acquaintances at best, but Zero still isn’t accustomed to actually…making any relationship with other people.

After having the Spirale hospital deny his requests so many times, Grimm was forced to look elsewhere. His searching brought him to a newly opened pharmacy with the name Bubu. And despite its newness, it seemed to already have quite a reputation of being well received. Perhaps this was the stroke of luck he needed...?

“A good day to you, sir,” Grimm greets as he strides up to the counter. “Tell me, are these reviews for your lovely establishment on Iselp legit? Others refuse to aid me with my special needs... I do hope I won’t hear the same here.”

“Don’t move.”

He’d seen the man fall from a mile away, and though it wasn’t in his interest at all to speak to any strangers in this place.. Richter felt compelled to to at least help him back on his feet. After all, if Aster had been present, he would be relentless in his pursuit to help the man; most likely nagging in Richter’s ear until he was certain that everything was alright.

Perhaps that’s what inspired Richter to mend the scrapes on the stranger’s leg; lowering a gloved hand to the torn fabric of of his pants as a soft, green light emitted from his palm. With a simple cast of First Aid, the injury and its pain would be but a distant memory.. but with his seemingly poor constitution, Richter wasn’t sure if it would truly do the man any good at all.

“You’re quite fortunate that your injuries are not any worse than they were-- it seems as though this is the current extent of my ability. I would advise you to see a doctor if anything else should bother you.” Keeping his place next to Baizhu on the ground, Richter offered him a hand, willing to wait a moment more by his side until he was able to collect himself. “Are you alright?”
