VOICE | UN: SINISTRA

[bisection]

Is there something that I can take to make my nose stop dripping?

This has never happened to me before. My head feels full to bursting...

Is it the rain? Or something else?

I, maybe, do not like the rain so much.

All right, then, follow me.

[ In spite of that instruction, Allura doesn't take the lead and just hope Sinistra isn't far behind. She waits for him so they can walk abreast, nearly shoulder to shoulder.

Two of the mice hop over to perch on his shoulder, in fact, chittering encouragement and patting his jaw and cheeks. ]

I'm no expert on human biology, but I doubt your condition is anything serious. Even so, it's better to have yourself checked over than to allow it to become something worse.

[ She smiles over at him as they turn a corner. The clinic is another block down, and she shows him the way. ]

Mm...

[ Sinistra does indeed follow her, trying not to get too distracted by the mice. Animals make him nervous but also fascinate him. He's having so many first interactions with different creatures, he still can't figure out how to process them. ]

I suppose that is true. I am. Not sure how well this body will hold up against such things.

[lioness_rampant]

All the more reason to be cautious, then.

[ His wording is still strange to her. "This body," not "my body." As if it belonged to someone else at some point? She doesn't bring it up, though; the young man seems stressed enough already.

That's why Allura takes the reins once they enter the clinic. She describes his symptoms to the friendly-looking prismal at the front desk, even going so far as to claim a familial relation to make sure she's allowed into the examination room with him.

Once they're both seated in the room, awaiting a visit from the doctor, Allur takes the mice back from Sinistra's shoulders and holds them in her lap. ]

The nurse said it shouldn't take them long to see us. How are you feeling?
