[ Open | Action ] now, did you read the news today? they say the danger’s gone away

[amberdrake]

Attleton:

Amberdrake's office is here, listed both as a therapist's office and as a medical clinic.

Genessia City:

The kestra'chern doesn't just work out of his office, he does visit other cities to work as well. He's taking a break at the moment, seated on a bench in a park. Colorful birds flutter and hop over things in his vicinity, chattering away with each other.

Nova City:

Drake is not pleased to be in Nova City, but he's there on a house call. Characters can run into him on his way away from said house call:

xxxxxTaking the stairs down inside a posh skyscraper.

xxxxxEmerging from the building with obvious relief.

xxxxxWalking briskly for the archway back to sanity.

He looks out of place in his colorful garb with beads and feathers.

Drake chuckled, and jumped when his phone buzzed. He checked it and sent back a heart before putting the phone back again. Let Sanzo gnaw on that one a while.

"Well, you are your mind, so that makes sense," Amberdrake nodded, thinking over what Genos had to say about this 'Saitama'. And what else he was getting off the young man as he spoke of him! "It sounds like you two both need each other. I'm glad you've got one another."

[toaster_puppy]

"I'm glad as well," Genos replied with a sharp nod. Any other meanings that sentence might have had went completely over his head. "We are adjusting better than I expected, my teacher even better than I. Compared to some things we've faced, this doesn't seem so odd."

[amberdrake]

Drake actually meant exactly what he said. While Genos' crush was obvious to any Empath within a thousand feet of the cyborg when he spoke of Saitama, that didn't mean the two were a pair. The kestra'chern wouldn't make assumptions like that!

Though the crush was awfully cute to watch. Or hear, rather, as Genos dropped everything to gush about his teacher. "This doesn't seem so odd? What else have you gone through, if your first time waking up on another world isn't that strange?"

[toaster_puppy]

"A massive spaceship appearing in seconds and destroying the city around the hero association HQ in even less time comes to mind." That was more shocking than odd but it counted. "Or maybe the variety and odd creation of mysterious beings on our world. Things that are new and surprising, and usually not good, happen on a regular basis."

[amberdrake]

"Mm," Amberdrake considered that, and sighed, "spaceships, mysterious beings... I don't know about all that. But I certainly know about chaotic worlds."

Since Genos didn't seem to mind contact, Drake set a hand on the cyborg's hard metal shoulder. "I'm glad you're both here, anyway. Go take your groceries home before it gets too late; I'll call you tomorrow, and we can figure out the details of our arrangement."

He offered a friendly squeeze, just like he would for someone made of flesh, and then took his hand back. "Besides, the guy I live with is getting antsy about my return, so I should head home as well."

[toaster_puppy]

Genos could feel the pressure just fine even if the metal plates themselves didn't have much sensation to them. It was odd for someone to treat the metal like it was flesh. Not bad, but different. Hrm.

"Yes. I will speak with you later then." Now they were well away from any topic related to Saitama, he was more abrupt. He saw no point in lingering so headed off with his groceries.
