The flowing whites of the coat mingle with the navy pencil skirt and accentuate your slim figure in the tantalizing fashion, and together with the glasses they give out an air of competence and... Authority. One that wouldn't ever expect from your old mousy self. Was that how Jaq felt when she took the first coat for herself? Hopefully you will different, since it's just a temporary solution.
Looking back, It clearly fits you well, but there is one thing that still nags you. With a deep breath, you steel yourself, but relax - you shouldn't be doing this... BUT - releasing all inhibitions you spin around frivolously, sending the hem of the coat and skirt fly into the air with a satisfying flutter. "Ah!" You beam at the reflection as your clothes return back to their original state.
You will not do it ever again. Probably.
"Are you alright?" At once you go pale. Nat is still there! Her concerned voice shakes your quite perverse thoughts away. "Just making sure, Chommie, if I didn't make a blunder with the check-up..."
Crimson shade covers your face at your realization. "It's fine! Anyways." You adjusts your *new* glasses to regain composure. "The hug." You blurt out - but it doesn't help at all.
"Ya are something else. Completely unlike my benefactors." She says as she steps up and catches you in a bear hug. "Together, we will reverse this mysterious curse, I just know it, 'my unofficial assistant'~" She whispers into your ear.
You just smile awkwardly, there is a little *too much* stimulus for you right now.

Soon, the embarrassing scene ends, and both of you sit back down. To avoid further complications you took the coat and glasses off, for now at least. Although, you still have a few ideas she could help you with.
As Natalie dutifully fills in your secret folder you poke her. "Say, Nat. Would me playing a nurse help in our plans? Would you sign me the Medical Permits? Maybe-"
Without hesitation she shushes you with her hand, and looks at you irritated. "Ya won't be 'playing' anything. I will not sign you a fake Medical approval. Medicine is no joking matter. Those around you will look up to ya and trust ya with their life. If ya go like this, you might get people killed. I will be failing them if that happens." She says sternly and goes back to work. "But I can teach you the basics to qualify. More staff are always needed, so I encourage you to try it."
"Don't mind me asking, but what are you nurses even doing here?"
Thinking for a second she lightly smiles. "On average, we either stay in the infirmary and await patients or do the visitations and check-ups. Sometimes during the events we tend to be assigned roles near congested areas or as assistants. It's a tough job, but rewarding one. The Gods elevate those who save lives, it's a great feeling." Then she rolls her eyes. "I suppose, people do remember their saviors too, if you are more pragmatic one... It will allow you to wear our coats too." She snicker at that. Hey!
