JJBA CLINIC EXPERIENCE
WHO: Anasui, Emporio, and YOU...Potentially all at once!
WHAT: Anasui is treating patients (and harassing visitors), Emporio is Recovering, and later there's BASEBALL
WHERE: The Clinic, and the Beach
WHEN: Late April/Early May
WARNINGS: References to the prior Heavy Quest
[YOUR DOCTOR, UNFORTUNATELY]
For someone who supposedly doesn't care about the well-being of others, Anasui volunteers at the clinic frequently. Most people know they can find him there if they can't find him in the library and you will see him there as usual.
However, over the last few days, he seems more pissed than usual. His already poor bedside manner seemed worse, and patients and visitors alike will notice Anasui irately clicking his tongue as he comes over to deliver medicine or do regular check ups. He may even mutter 'oh great. You again.' But if his grumbling about the teleporters is anything to go by, it may not be your fault.
"Fucking hell... Asking us to find what's different with newcomers? Why don't they fucking find what's wrong with their stupid teleporters?"
Occasionally, he'll slam cupboards closed or hiss as he's forced to visit a few patients. If you're coming to visit someone, you may see Anasui glaring at you unblinkingly as you walk in.
"What do you want?"
[CLINIC BUDDIES]
It's not exactly small news that Emporio's been admitted to the clinic.
...Again.
His team was, reportedly, carried in from beyond the cliffs by way of Robin and Agnes- they were unconscious, a scene not at all unlike the last heavy quest Emporio participated in, and ultimately they were handed over to Dr. Denne and the rest on stretchers. When, precisely, all three woke up is perhaps largely irrelevant.
What matters is that eventually Emporio does wake up, and proceeds to have a heck of a crisis of identity, before settling back against his cot to just try and muddle his way through the way he does most things. He's really not changed that much, if he thinks about it hard enough. This is still basically the same shape body, even if he has to keep blinking auras out of his eyes, and also figure out how to replace the bag he'd more or less used his old helmet for.
But while Emporio adjusts to this (and also to being bloody huge compared to prior), others will probably want to visit. And...unlike Anasui, who absolutely tracked him down before the boy awoke, it might have been easy to miss the kid.
If only because, as noted, he's a lot bigger now. ...Roughly five times bigger in fact.
It appears Emporio has evolved, and that might be causing a little confusion when it comes to locating his cot in the clinic.
[OH! THAT'S A BASEBALL!]
((Collaboratively written between Pyra and Usagi - tags can and likely will come from both!))
The air in the beach is tense. It's thick, heavy, and nearly choking as two giants (well, Pokemon larger than 5ft) stare each other down. Despite the ghost-type Marowak formerly known as Emporio the Cubone being literally five times bigger than he used to be, he still looks small next to Anasui, especially when the bird straightens his neck and puffs up his feathers. Anasui is bristling, and if the dark look in his eye is any indication, he's pissed off.
Emporio holds, in his hand, a long bone club. There's no flames on it- that would involve scratching it against the almost star-shaped mark on his brow- but rather, he holds it over his shoulder, the way a baseball would be positioned.
The marowak swallows. On the one hand, Anasui told him they were going to be playing baseball.
On the other, it really didn't feel like an offer so much as a threat, and he's not sure what to do about that.
Another swallow.
"...So....where are the baseballs..?"
Emporio's question is unfortunately unanswered- even if an audience has already gathered.
Anasui doesn't say anything. One moment, he's staring down Emporio, the next, he's moving. A grey and purple blob of shadow forms in his mouth and he shoots it straight at Emporio. Emporio gasps and ducks out of the way and Anasui snarls.
"Stay still or I'll make you." It'd be nice if there was context but it seems Emporio doesn't even have that. Anasui just charges up another shadow ball and fires it again. "Emporio!"
"YOU SAID THIS WAS BASEBALL-!!" is all the Marowak shouts in turn- and, for anyone watching, one wonders if they'll have to step in for that to actually happen.

"No matter the reason for doing it, you'd be putting your interests to good use, even if helping others isn't your main goal," she says thoughtfully. Isn't Anasui still doing that now with all his clinic duties?
"I can't really say the same for myself." Mayaka is a bit self-conscious about this, especially when she's always kept drawing manga as a personal hobby. Who does it really benefit, apart from her ego, if she were to work on her art?
no subject
Anasui gets off the stairs and walks down the hallway, frowning as he mills Mayaka's words over.
"... What are your interests again? Art, right? You've already put it to good use here."
no subject
"Yeah, we can say it's art." There is no lie here, just things left unsaid.
"If you're talking about the time with the road plans, it was only because of you that it all worked out."
Mayaka would've hated admitting that a few months ago. Now, she's only a little annoyed.
no subject
Anasui has confidence that can come off as arrogance but he knows he's not a one-man army. He knows the value of teamwork and others' contributions.
Also, imagine what would have happened if Anasui had to tell others about the road plans himself? By extension, Mayaka's work stopped Anasui getting into many, many, many fights.."But if you don't agree with me, fine. I honestly don't care. What's stopping you from putting your interests to good use now?"
no subject
"I guess... because I've never had the chance to use it that way. But maybe I should try."
When they finally reach the storeroom, Mayaka will look up to the Espathra and say, "If you ever need something drawn, you can ask me."
no subject
"... Duly noted," Anasui says with a slight nod. "And if I hear anyone who may need an artist's hand, I'll pass your name along."
With that, he opens the storage room up and lets the cool air and the waft of assorted berries hit him. Anasui walks over to a box and psychically draws it out, revealing a plethora of Sitrus berries.
"Good. At least we have a decent supply here. After we let someone else know that we're taking things, we can restock upstairs and I can get to work.."
good to start wrapping !
While Anasui prepares the Sitrus berries, Mayaka will look for the staff in charge of the storage room to give them the needed updates. There's some inventory sheets to update, but before long, they'll be back on track.
sounds good!
And indeed, they will. Whether or not Mayaka chooses to keep helping him or not is up to her but once they have the supplies, Anasui will have calmed down a little bit. There will at least be no slamming cupboards now, even though he's still disgruntled with how things are still such a mess...
🎀
Seeing how focused Anasui is on the task at hand, she bites her tongue and swallows the sharp retort. Maybe this will come up again in future, and she can disagree all she wants to then. For now, she'll stick around and assist Anasui (asking a question every now and then about how something works) until he tells her that there's nothing else left to do.
