JIGOKUCHO COMMUNITY CLINIC

♬♬♬
Open from eight AM to eight PM, this Lost Soul-maintained clinic has been quietly offering assistance to those in need for the past several months. To those in the know, the red cross sign in the window is a beacon for people who need a professional's eye and who for one reason or another - financial, skeptical, etc. - would prefer the intimacy of a private facility. To those not, the whispers are enough to point you in the right direction, the general agreement to not shout about it and keep it under the radar, for affordable and easily accessed healthcare is worth its own weight in gold

Patients are primarily checked in at the front, and either seen by a doctor or one of the assistants. Everything from basic checkups to immediate care is available, as well as compounded medicine for those with particular ailments. To things that just can't be handled in the private space, the staff will see to the proper referrals. Walk ins are always available - even emergencies, just call the number on the sign with the hours.

For staff and volunteers, there's always something to do. Paperwork, attending to patients, taking turns on the front desk, supply transport and acquisition - there's always an assignment for the day, and a schedule written up to be followed on the local chalkboard. Yes, the space below can be for whatever doodles you want, or just writing in when you'll next need time off. The break room contains one Nice radio, courtesy of a certain audiophile, and whether one is following the intricacies of oni baseball or new tunes, it's treated with respect. The calendar pinned to the wall contains everyone's noted down birthdays as per their hiring sheets, and there is now debate on starting a book club, given the inclination of most working there.

The second floor of the clinic is not yet finished, but Dr. Dyer has plans for it, and it's being worked on during slower shifts. Cleaning, painting, and basic repair is to be expected, as well as getting it ready to include a few more beds for when overnight patients are needed. Out the back door, however, is the most popular place to take a break amongst those working - the herbal garden filled with medicinal plants, steadily maintained along the other tasks at hand. A pair of small benches offers a place to rest one's feet, and the scene of tranquility is complete with the sound of the recently installed fountain - the water within also has healing properties, and is used in treatments. But one doesn't need to be ill to appreciate a calming scene.

The city keeps them busy enough, and the clinic so far manages to persevere, putting down small roots in Hell.


(this is a mingle log for everyone who comes through the clinic through the month of september and onwards. all top levels are welcome, from those already involved to new patients to those curious about the workings. talk to your friends, get someone to look at you bleeding your own blood, help with whatever you like - the sky is yours.

if you have any questions, pm me, otherwise enjoy!) © tessisamess

[Oh god, he does, doesn't he. Mikotoba only looks a little sheepish about it:]

I'm hardly that far gone. Besides, my flat here hasn't got a porch.

[Mikotoba huffs in faint amusement. He leaves the sentiment unspoken, but having that messy little flat in the Tamamo district-- and its other occupant-- is far, far more blessing than the finest cup of tea this city could ever hope to offer him.

Yet--
] True, there are many luxuries. But the price we pay is our duty to our clans, and the distance from our homes and times. Even after so many weeks, I'll still feel disoriented every now and again. Had I been given a greater say in the matter, I'm not certain whether I would take such a contract again.

Some of the apartments in Shuten have these terrible little balconies... I'm sure you could find something.

[Not that Mikotoba lived in Shuten territory, but his point stood, in that the doctor was five minutes away from reminding Eiichi of his grandfather.]

Eager to return home, then? [Well he's still drinking the tea, anyway, for all of his smack talk.] The scientific advancement is a lot to catch up with, but I can't say it's been too disorienting being here. You must have quite a bit waiting for you back home.

Do they? I'll have to look into that.

[Yes, a decent balcony for a little garden, just like back in Baker Street... Sholmes would probably enjoy that, too. The gears: they're turning!!]

Of course. My home, and my family. [And the diplomat thing but we're not going to bring up, you know, the Reaper debacle in this casual conversation... besides, it only occurs to him as an afterthought when he's got Susato to consider. And Kazuma, of course.] I couldn't remain here without my daughter, and I wouldn't wish for her to endure whatever is going on with the clans here. Returning is my only option.
