he's keeping busy as he's bleeding stones, his machinations and his palindromes.

WHO: Stephen Strange & you
WHAT: A sorcerer returns to being a doctor, although he never really stopped.
WHEN: Harvestmere
WHERE: The Gallows
NOTES: Catch-all for the month and a spot to stash scenes; open prompt in the comments about his promotion to Head Healer, but feel free to toss wildcards or anything else in here, and hmu if you want something bespoke. ♥

"Okay."

She feels slightly calmer, though she'd love nothing more than to surrender this conversation and retreat hastily to her room, maybe crawl underneath something and hide, pretend not to be in. She needs to sort this development out in her mind, she needs to sit with the thought of Strange researching this, researching her.

Trying to help. He's just trying to help, she asked him to.

"Okay," she says again, not quite looking at him. She is rising up out of her chair. "Well — I think I'll go, then, if that's all you need from me."

And she doesn't really give him much time to refute that before she's reaching for the door. Right before she opens it she says, "Thank you," and then she's gone, leaving as nonchalantly as possible, though it very much does feel like she throws herself out of the office as fast as she can go.
