⠀ ⠀ “we’ll have to see what works for you, then,” placing her pen light to the side, raising her hand again to check his pulse point, “we have all sorts of medical marvels of drugs here.”
⠀
⠀ ⠀ she cocks her head as she speaks, “stay still while i check you, please,”
⠀
“ no - none at all ”
a simple response — the pet names were also something higgs wasn’t used to — nobody cared about him enough to use them, but that wasn’t his concern anymore
⠀
⠀ ⠀ she nods, taking the liquor bottle for herself, taking an almost clumsy swig— not her typical nature.
⠀
⠀ ⠀ “men like you, so many responsibilities, you have no time for them . . . important work that you do. i haven’t seen you unwind since the New year’s party.”
⠀
“ we all deserve a break. .i just tend to refuse them more frequently than most people ”
a small smile at the laugh — what he would have felt when he was sober he didn’t feel when he was drunk. .
⠀
⠀ ⠀eyes flitting down towards his hand overtop his, the nurse feels her cheeks go a bit warm. she swallows and shakes the feeling.
⠀
⠀ ⠀“. . . i have no doubt about that, mr. perry,” she smiles, “do keep me informed, if you wouldn’t mind . . . It’ll stay between us.”
⠀
“ hope isn’t needed, miss barlow — in the upcoming days i can assure you i’ll have her ”
leaning forward slightly, hand gently resting on hers as a sign of reassurance

⠀ ⠀ emily probably shouldn’t say this to her boss so simply but she does, “dr. easterman not thinking about work… dr. easterman actually trying to unwind… we should mark the calendar for the occasion.”
⠀
⠀ ⠀ a tipsy feminine laugh follows. not being considerate.
⠀
“ mh. .i’ll think of something when i’m a little more sober — work is not something i want to think about while drunk “
sipping more from the bottle in hand
⠀
⠀ ⠀ “oh, mr. perry! i trust in you, most definitely. all of murkoff does. you have no need to worry about that . . .”
⠀
⠀ ⠀ an innocent shrug of her shoulders as she trails off then continuing tentatively, “i just don’t like that strange woman. i hope you get her.”
⠀
“ she will know i am following her. i am waiting only for a little while to get her guard down and make it easier for her to be caught. both easterman and you need to trust me ”
keeping his tone steady — watching her body language
⠀
⠀ ⠀ “intriguing, very interesting… hmm. memory problems, maybe— because something is certainly the matter, dear.”
⠀
⠀ ⠀ clicking her tongue again, “poor thing, i should prescribe you something. have you taken any drugs or medications before?”
⠀
his soul was in a mechanical body so what she was saying did make some sense, but from what he recalled he never had any mood swings — he always felt mostly the same throughout the day
“ none that i can remember, no- ”
