[67] life's a game we're meant to lose

[phone]

Fine. You people want to play that way?

Enjoy educating newcomers by yourselves. I'm done helping you.

[And, true to his word, he won't be handing out any more letters, at least for the moment. Explain what he's talking about? Why in the world would he do that? Obviously the actions of maybe three people is enough for him to throw a tantrum over the phone lines.]

[action]

[Anyone who might see Dist walking through the streets can see that he's an absolute wreck. Not emotionally -- his expression is uncharacteristically stony. It's his face that's busted up, bruised across his cheek and mouth and his left eye patched over. Well, the place where his left eye should be, but that's not exactly visible. It'd happened a couple of days ago, but that's not quite long enough to heal fully, so for now he's just combed his hair forward a bit in an attempt to cover it all up.

He does seem to have a destination in mind, though, as he's walking particularly quickly.]


[729 Anderson lane]

[KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.]

[Nail on the head, not that Dist can recognize it. He's quiet for several seconds, scrambling for something to say.]

...I don't have a dependence! I don't need them, they need me! I don't need anyone!

[It's weak, and he knows it.]

[The Doctor chuckles a little. He's surprised at how... nice he's trying to be right now all things considered. Who knows, maybe he had to pity him a little.]

Of course they do. You're going to make them need you, after all. Just take a sip of water and... relax for a little while.

As for me, I have business to take care of. You'll be all right, I trust?

Business? What kind of business?

And I'll be fine.

[Can't have people thinking they need to keep an eye on him, after all.]

Medical business. I am a doctor in Mayfield's hospital meaning that I am responsible for seeing through its repairs.

[Ironically, he's the one who caused most of its damages...]

If you have any reason to see me, then that is where I will usually be.

[...Well, that makes sense, and Dist doesn't quite care enough to follow up on it. He sighs.]

If I do, then that's where I'll go.
