[samantha_grey]

An old, brick edifice stands in front of the burnt-down ruins of a home in the hillside. Mountains rear up in all directions, covered in lush, green vegetation. Nobody comes this way anymore, but you have the sense that anything placed in the mailbox attached to this old structure will be found by someone, the only living person for whom this place still has any meaning.

Oh sit down. No point freezing your ass off for my under-developed sense of humor. You're already doing the world a public service by putting up with my insane ass anyway. Might as well wrack up some brownie points in terms of karma.

Gotta be good for something.

[expy]

Oh, please, I don't need karma. I make my own luck. [Whoa nice snooty little scoff there, Eve.]

Serve me another soda and I'll consider saving my ass for humanity's sake.

[samantha_grey]

[She was pouring alright, though she raised her eyebrow at her and shook her head.]

The things you put up with for the sake of humanity, mmm?

[zodiacal]

I know. Have you seen the bags I'm getting under my eyes? I'm going to look old before I'm 20.

[...except there are no bags under her eyes. Her complexion is the best it's been in a while. SHE'S EXAGGERATING.]

[samantha_grey]

The horror. I'll turn you into a barren spinster yet, you know. You're finally catching onto my nefarious plans.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[the_good_doctor]

[Watson's come by A Pince of Sage with two roses, one of which he has already given to Sophie and received directions as to where to find Sam. He is currently offering the second to Sam with a military bow.]

I hope you won't think me foolish, Miss Grey, but I wanted to give you this token of my esteem and friendship.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[samantha_grey]

[She blinked. In principle, she understood that this sort of thing was done between coworkers, but she'd never actually had it done for her. Taking the gift, she returned the bow with a nod of her own and looked down at it.]

Nope... just very traditional, Doc. But that doesn't really surprise me. Thanks.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[the_good_doctor]

I would prefer to be thought of as traditional, I'll admit.

[zodiacal]

How about I kick you out of your own house before that happens? Sounds like a good plan, right?

[Day 218 - in person.]

[samantha_grey]

Would mister traditional like to step in for a cup of tea? I'll spare you my unique house blend, since I've had a cup earlier.

[samantha_grey]

Heh. Sounds like a good way for us to end up in a hair-pulling contest.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[the_good_doctor]

He would be most gratified.

It's been too long since I stopped by in person. I think I notice some improvements. Business is obviously going well.

[zodiacal]

Unlike you, I don't have much hair to pull. Good luck trying, though.

[samantha_grey]

You have a gift for making friends and winning them over, you know.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[samantha_grey]

[She nodded and led him in. the shop itself hadn't changed much, but there were some definite different smells. Another change was that, listed on the chart of potion prices, were a few chemicals she'd kept secret before.

All poisons.]

Decided to go with a suggestion I got a while back to openly sell the poisons. It's not like we're not fighting a war right now after all.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[the_good_doctor]

Indeed.

[Watson studies the list of poisons a moment. He almost thinks of asking for samples for some of the rarer kind, for Holmes to study, before remembering that Holmes is no longer with them.

It's easy to forget, even at this distance past his most recent departure.]

Though, speaking of the war effort, you've heard of Castiel's departure?

[Day 218 - in person.]

[samantha_grey]

[Holmes had 'tested' several of those, in low doses, in fact. Oddly, that would have been a rather unusual conversation.]

I had heard, yes. He was one of the people who told me I should sell them openly. It's going to be a little more quiet without him around, honestly.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[the_good_doctor]

It will be. Unfortunately, with Castiel gone, we've no one to lead the powers portion of the first-aid classes.

You must meet quite a few of the city's medics through your work. Let me know if you hear of anyone who might be interested into stepping into that role? I plan on organzing some fresh lectures soon.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[samantha_grey]

Surprisingly less you'd think, but you know... Hisao might be interested in that sort of work. I will ask around among the ones I find, though Ritsu'd be best to avoid. He's... excitable enough as is.

Re: [Day 218 - in person.]

[the_good_doctor]

I know Hisao. He's young, but steady for all that. You know, I'll ask him if he's up for it.

I can't say I'm acquainted with ... Ritsu?

[Day 218 - in person.]

[samantha_grey]

He's a good kid. Ritsu, you'd know if you met him. He apologizes for everything, constantly. Literally everything.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[the_good_doctor]

Ah.

I can imagine that would be noticable.

[Day 218 - in person.]

[samantha_grey]

That's one way of putting it. Ritsu's not bad, but honestly he's got more self esteem issues than even I know what to do with. I wonder sometimes about him.

[expy]

Well, duh. It's part of my charm, don't you know?

[samantha_grey]

Alright. Well, you know, I've told you all kinds of stories about myself. Why don't you pick something fun as a trade?
