「 REMEMBER YOUR APPOINTMENT」

[drawback]

[ It looks like you have an appointment and you have been brought in from the waiting room. There is a chair for your to lounge on--

Wait, are you seeing a shrink? Can't be! You're generally sane... Right?

Right...? ]

The doctor will be right with you. For now, I'll just conduct a general evaluation. Mind if I ask you questions?

Comments

[outgambit]

I think it's more like a disclaimer. [ Probably because other versions of himself are really dangerous... He shrugs. ]

When is your earliest availability?

[drawback]

[ Amen to dangerous. Let him shuffle through some more papers. ]

Tomorrow at 8:00AM, 1:30PM, or 4:00PM.

[outgambit]

Eight in the morning sounds good.

[ Because he barely sleeps...... ]

Will you be here too?

[drawback]

[ ... Serious? Eight in the morning. Him being there at eight in the morning. He thinks about it. ]

I only advise the evaluation process, so I generally don't stay for the actual therapy.

[outgambit]

That's fine. Understandable, since you're an intern. It's quite early for most people, I'm sure.

[ He just smiles his usual smile. Kind of wonders about the availability because that's so early. He expected this to be in a week or two. ]

[drawback]

[ They are a friendly small clinic, Seungmin. Super open and very flexible. Truly caring of its community-- ]

Did you want to see me tomorrow? [ Because that was what was implied, right? ]

[outgambit]

Yes, I did.

[ Because Cameron is cute and seems pretty compliant when it comes to his job... :U Maybe. ]

[drawback]

I'll see what I can do. [ Gives him a small smile... BASICALLY MAKES NO PROMISES. He writes Seungmin a sticky reminder because EVERYONE NEEDS ONE no matter how diligent they are. He gives it to Seungmin. ]

I'll escort you out. [ Opens the door for you. ]

[outgambit]

[ He takes the sticky note without complaint and puts it in his pants pocket. Seungmin doesn't really expect Cameron to be there, to be honest. ]

It was a pleasure to see you. [ Gonna show himself out the door now. So polite, Cameron. ]

[drawback]

It's a pleasure for me as well. [ And he follows Seungmin outside of the clinic rather than stay there. Someone is off the clock!! Part 3.

It's okay, Minnie. He will be there in the morning. ] Will you be all right getting home?

[ There's obvious worry in his voice. ]

[outgambit]

Hm? [ Oh, there's someone that actually worries about him. It's quite a surprise to him--it also makes him want to laugh. ]

I'll be fine. I'll be sure to show up tomorrow at eight, if that's what you're worried about.

[drawback]

I'm not worried about that. [ If you don't go, he doesn't need to go. ]

It's pretty far where you live, right? A lot of things can happen in between.

[ He is worried about everyone, Seungmin. ]

[outgambit]

[ He technically lives in another dimension and he can teleport to any place in the world that he wants. He's assuming that Cameron is talking about the college campus. ]

Though it's nice to be worried over, it's rather pointless in this scenario. I'll be fine. I won't have a scratch on me--physically and mentally.

[ He thinks it's kind of cute that he's worrying about him. ]

[drawback]

[ HE DOESN'T KNOW THAT MUCH OKAY. Cameron is a mere school boy... Trying to live in the big world.

He only stares at him normally, but if you squint it might be puppy eyes. It's just normal staring though. ]

[outgambit]

[ Here, Cameron. Have some head pats from Seungmin because you resemble a puppy right now. ]

[drawback]

[ He wants to mention he isn't a child, but bites that comment back and just takes the pats with closed eyes. He guesses he doesn't mind it at all. It feels nice. ]

Are you planning to head back now, Mister Baek?

[outgambit]

[ He pets him a little more before withdrawing his hand. The smile is always on his face. Perpetual smiler. He lightly rolls a shoulder as if shrugging. ]

I might if you don't hold me back from leaving. [ But then again, he made sure that he would be fine, so. ]

[drawback]

I wouldn't mind hanging out a bit if you're interested. [ He's not sure what he's saying, but he believed it's along the lines of company. He also would like to show him the town because home is great...

At least to him, someone that hasn't returned till recently. ] Sight-seeing, museum, food, night life...

[ What else is there to list. Ponder ponder. ]

[outgambit]

[ He is a little curious because he hasn't really been to this side of the world all that much. He thinks it's interesting. ]

Then night life.

[ Is it better than the place he frequents, he wonders. ]

[drawback]

How dangerous... Lucky that your appointment today was at a later time, huh. [ Eerily convenient he thinks, but he shrugs it off. ]

The town is a little strange at night, but it's nothing too different. [ Hmm... ] I think.

[ It's getting darker... And when it's dark enough, the night lights turn on. The street lights weren't white, but a glistening gold the closer the lights are to the middle of the city. ] If we take the red bus, we should hit the Gaslamp district.

[outgambit]

[ If anything, he thinks the name of the district sounds a little amusing. ]

Strange? Is that so... Just how strange could it be? [ It's like he's tempting fate here--no, that's probably what he's exactly doing. ]

[drawback]

The weirdos come out of night, right? [ If you were expecting anything big, this should easily shoot it down. Whether Cameron is serious or kidding is up to you.

Either way, the red bus is on its waaaay and the same thing that happens to Damien happens here. Everyone is friendly and somehow familiar with Cameron. ]

Looks like there's seats here. That's pretty surprising. [ He'll go take one and there's another empty one beside it. ]

[outgambit]

Are there usually no seats available? [ Well, compared to Damien, Seungmin is a lot more composed for obvious reasons. He goes and takes the next available seat in the bus. ]

[drawback]

The Gaslamp is usually overpopulated at night, so the red buses in town are filled to the brim... [ They were lucky is what he's thinking. ]

I've only gone on the red bus at night to get to a friend's place and there was practically no room. I guess that's why they added more buses to the red line than the others.

I guess the night life is kind of worth it if so many people go.

[outgambit]

You guess? [ Hm. ]

So you're not a regular.

[ Night life... is usually full of stuff that needs you to be of legal age. And he thinks that Cameron isn't of age yet, so that would make sense. ]
