Leaping off the edge of a building, you aim yourself towards where you spot the next neon cross that denotes your next destination. Like every other building in this district, it’s as run-down and dilapidated as the rest of them, but, so far out of the way of the main part of the city, such a building is the perfect place for the Healer to conduct her business.
When you land, you drop Valjean off, who opts to loiter outside the building.
Passing through the door of the next pharmacy, you prepare yourself for the next reaction you get. While most of the people you came by just stared in abject shock, frozen and unsure of what to do, you already had a couple of screamers tonight, and, with your sensitive ears, you’re not looking forwards to another.
<span class="mu-i">“Hello Kelpie,”</span> A nasally voice greets, the sharp, sterile smell of cleaning chemicals hitting your nostrils in full-force. “Back so soon?”
It’s a nasally voice you recognize– one that’d been present at Nacht Haven.
<span class="mu-i">Oh.
Oh shit.</span>
Sitting at the front desk is a very familiar clerk, one with a head of shaggy hair and a poorly-shaved beard. You blink a few times, just to confirm you’re not just seeing things, even though the reality is sitting right there with a frown upon his face.
All-too-quickly, the air in the pharmacy becomes increasingly and unbearably <span class="mu-i">awkward.</span>
For someone you’d saved so very recently, you’d think this guy would show a little more gratitude– or manners, if at all possible, but before you can say anything else a chime heralds the arrival of Boleski.
