Private Western Brisshal Getting a Job in a Game

[Delice Sergia]

Rumors of a clinic around these parts had sent the shy and withdrawn girl in search, for finally she'd heard of something that maybe, just maybe, she could both help with and be helped by. A clinic that had something of a decent reputation, though she'd heard one or two things about the woman that ran it that had caused her some second, third and fourth thoughts. Eventually she'd had to just throw her caution to the wind and head out in search of it. Apparently some kind of which lived there, capable of brewing potions, though more often than not she enacted magics to heal victims that had come to the clinic.

Though the magic sounded impressive, that wasn't quite what Delice was interested in. The knowledge of potions and different ingredients was what she sought. She had no clue if it was a Lander or a Traveller that ran the clinic, but at the very least, perhaps she could be of some use, since she'd taken Alchemy as a Mastery and all. Heck, if she was lucky, maybe the clinic would even be able to pay her for her services! That would be ideal, since she really did need to start looking into ways to sustainably produce potion ingredients, at least plant-based ones, as quickly as she could. That meant money would be essential, since she'd need land, if not home, to grow these ingredients.

Still, now that she was actually standing here, outside of the front door, she sure was nervous! Surely a fellow healer was a gentle soul, like herself, so really she didn't know why she was so anxious and nervous. A lifetime of being bullied and seeing everybody as a threat had really left some marks in her psyche that refused to go away even now.

She took a deep breath in to calm her nerves, before she slowly knocked her fist against the door, the hollow knocking sound ringing out as the small faerin girl shuffled in place. All she could do was wait and hope the witch answered and that she was willing to teach Delice how to be a healer.

Kaede had been out back with Totetsu when she heard the knocking on her front door, the hound turning to look over only to go right back to playing with her new 'tire' toy that was just a large rubber-esc rock reformed into a disk using a mix of magics and purely experimental. Nodding that it seemed to keep the hound busy enough so far she moved to go see who was knocking on her door only to blush and smile as she saw the small faerin while internally screaming.

"What brings a cute little heart stealer to my neck of the woods?~"

Happily humming as she moved to lean against part of the railing doing all she could at the moment not to act on her inner voices. Yes most faerin she deemed cute or 'fun sized' but this was like seeing your first eleven with a one to ten scale. She always had a weakness for girls or guys with long white hair and red eyes and here there was one and a shorty at that. Well being short was an added bonus because it made picking them up to smother them with love and smother them with boobs easy also but that was beside the point.

The girl was still a stranger and while normally Kaede went around flirting and trying to hit on any and every cute girl she came across she was trying to be better about that now that Luna was back and made her feelings clear to Kaede. So until at the very least given reason she was going to refrain from being an open hard flirt or pervert to strangers and that line was very easy to cross but again not her worry at the moment as she hummed and adjusted her gloves some.

"You don't look like you need medical help, and I don't think I've seen you around these parts or I'd have a name for the lovely face I have before me. Most out of towners tend to go to the more main clinic of Ivywood, not the one owned by the 'pervert witch' ha-ha."

Delice immediately blushed, looking away when the woman appeared and immediately lavished her with a compliment. She had no clue what was driving the woman to think that she was a heart stealer or anything of that sort, considering she'd never had a relationship in her entire life. Or even anybody interested in one of those. In fact, her love life was quite pathetically empty, if somebody were to give it any kind of label. Sure, she'd made her avatar quite pretty, but she'd never thought that anybody would actually see it as being pretty or attractive in any way.

Oh god, she had to talk to this woman, didn't she? Delice swallowed, trying desperately to calm her nerves and anxiety before they bubbled up and caused her to run away. She couldn't retreat from this! She wanted to learn to be a better healer and alchemist and this was the best opportunity within reach!

A-Ah, um...hi! I don't need, um, y'know, medical help or anything like that. W-Well actually, I guess I do? No wait...

She babbled nervously, ignoring the thing about a 'pervert witch' for now, swallowing again and bunching up her small hands into fists.

P-Please take me on as an apprentice! I want to get better at alchemy and healing people!

Kaede would blink a few times seeing how the girl was reacting, a small frown for a brief moment but it would fade just as quickly as it showed up. When the girl spoke her reason to visiting Kaede could only tip her head slightly. She was not exactly the best choice for teaching anything other then maybe flirting or bedroom activates, much less alchemy or healing people as she used Chronomancy for those things. Moving her head back before she would speak up.

"I'm not exactly sure you came to the right place to find a teacher... Most the medicine I make is just the type you mix together, wait some time that I speed up using chronomancy and then give to people or if the injury is within ten minutes I can turn time back to before it."

Kaede moved to scratch the back of her head some as she thought it over some more. Sure she could use someone to help with things around the area, but teaching the girl to make things would go about as well as anything else Kaede tried to teach. She would start great, but eventually her mind would go down the gutter and lead to nothing work related getting done. Add on the girl was exactly how she liked woman, albeit a bit more passive then she would love it was enough to make her think of the 'what if' side of things.

"I'm not exactly sure you came to the right place to find a teacher... Most the medicine I make is just the type you mix together, wait some time that I speed up using chronomancy and then give to people or if the injury is within ten minutes I can turn time back to before it."

Kaede adjusted herself to open the front door of the clinic to show partly what she meant about the whole ordeal. The front room mostly had open view crates of the few medicines she could make along with supplies for more 'medical gifted' or alchemic savvy. Then there was a cot that had clean sheets, but a few covered in some blood nearby and the door deeper revealing the mess Kaede never bothered to clean up. Moving to close the door to hide it as she waved around for the girl to look around if she wanted.

Well, if it was just a case of not being the correct kind of teacher, that was fine. Delice couldn't let this chance to get experience and work slip through her fingers just like that. She was willing to do whatever she could to get a place working at this clinic, because she needed the experience!

P-Please! I-I think you're fine as a teacher! A-And I can teach myself the specifics of alchemy! I-I just need a safe place to learn s-since I don't like fighting or being on the battlefield! A-And you have access to ingredients that I would need, s-so it would all work out!

She caught a quick glance at the clinic as Kaede opened the front door, seeing the crates of medicines and supplies. She could surely help Kaede out too, when she was more experienced and a better alchemist! Was there any way that she could manage to secure an apprenticeship here?

Please! I'll do anything! Give you medicine and potions for free! Anything you want! I just really need the safe experience and a place to practice! Please at least give me a shot and see what you think?

The witch would have spit her drink out if she had one hearing the faerin say she would do anything. Did the girl NOT hear Kaede call herself Pervert witch, did she not notice the very clear flirting she did at the start before she tried to focus more on the topic at hand? Kaede covered her face as she looked away for a moment before sighing and being unable to really deny her inner voices or at the least some of them. Moving to pin the girl against a wall reaching to hold her chin while Kaede leaned to have them at eye level.

"You say anything to a pervert witch who already made it clear your are her or his type you are going to regret it. What if I told you I wanted you to dominate me, to take control of me and make me beg to have you stay?"

Kaede's tone was serious, it was not exactly what her voices had been saying but it felt the best way to make it clear the girl needed to watch her words around some people. Kaede wanted to take the Faerin on a trip to Eden and back, to boldly go where she never gone before but was fighting ever voice to least keep some professional level as even she could feel this was more an interview if anything else and she never liked those type of managers.

"If you want to use anything here your are more then welcome to them, if you want to pay or can't I really don't care much. Most everything I have that is not made already I harvest from the woods out back and use magic to restore it for others to gather. The few 'notes' I have on things I've tried or asked others about can be found somewhere in... I think... that pile of papers... or that might be the ones on puppy training... I don't know where anything really is anymore... Wind is mean and roofs I can't deal with..."

Kaede would move away from the Faerin allowing her to go free or run if she wished while she moved to double check the pile of scattered papers was in fact the one on herbs and their more medical properties and trying to split them as the girl seemed more focused on that then poison or status effect ones. Waving a hand if the girl was still there she was allowed to roam or work if she wished before giving one final warning if she wanted to stay and study here.

"Just note, even if I'm not drunk all the time anymore I am still known to be more of an impulse type so If I get the urge to tease or kiss you this is my fair warning of such. I happen to have a real weakness to long white hair and red eyes so it will likely happen a lot more then others who might poke around here."

Delice could do naught but squeak as she was pushed backwards and pinned to a wall, before the purple haired woman started saying...something that made no sense, but also made Delice's cheeks burn bright red and, if they could, her ears would have been releasing steam. How could this woman actually say such things out loud without feeling embarrassed or shutting down? She was so brave and outspoken! Delice could never see herself admitting those kinds of things to anybody! How could somebody be so brave?

I-I-I I don't....I mean, I can't...you c-can't just...

She babbled nervously, red eyes wide open, feeling so trapped pinned to the wall, Kaede leaning down so that their eyes were level with one another, once more reminding the faerin of just how small she was and how much weaker her body was. Just based off of size and mass alone, most other people could overpower her easily.

Though luckily things seemed to turn back to being almost professional, though Kaede seemed more dismissive than she'd been hoping for. Access to the woman's ingredients and notes on the few potions she'd been able to make without Alchemy would surely help, though. Especially if Kaede apparently had magic that could allow the ingredients to regrow faster.

Finally released, Delice remained frozen nervously, swallowing. The warning...didn't mean much, to be honest. There was nothing Kaede could do that her bullies hadn't done in the past. In fact, some hugs and kisses sounded downright pleasant, compared to what she was used to.

T-Then I'll work hard! Please take care of me!

The witch would simply sighed, the little faerin needed to pick her words better and it was going to take ALOT of self control to not act on her whims to least try and stay loyal to Luna. That said though her mind also chanted what the girl did not know would not hurt her. Why her mind was so messed up she could only blame her magic for making it this bad as before it was more a back thought. Sighing again as she would move to hand a few of the notes to Delice on simple potions.

"Your choice, if there is something you cant find just let me know. Also if a large dog jumps into the house ignore her... She is in trouble and does not deserve attention for chewing up my spare outfit."

Kaede would wave to the missing ceiling and the 'small' platforms that looked almost like a cat tower but allowed Totetsu to jump in and slowly shrink while going back to her normal spot. Kaede then moved to least try and clean the work space up some. She did have the equipment for alchemy and rather high end at that, but never bothered to try using it after failing about as much as she did with cooking. The question when she ate last hitting her as her stomach would growl to make it clear it was not recently.

"I'm going to go see if the Bakery and Deli are open... Or I guess Butcher is what I should call it. Do you want anything to eat that I should look out for or scavenger's choice? You can use the equipment also just... don't go into the back room or when I get back there will be a different lesson going on.~"

Oh, the woman had a dog that was in trouble for chewing up her outfit? That was quite cute! It almost made Delice giggle and she would have, had she not been so nervous and the situation hadn't been so intense and serious beforehand. Her eyes instead followed the wave of Kaede's hand as she gestured to a bunch of small platforms, looking more like a cat tower than anything she'd seen people using for dogs. At that, Kaede began to clean things up and Delice sort of made a fumbling attempt to help her.

That was when she heard Kaede's stomach growl and then she really did giggle, her cheeks still a bit red from her earlier embarrassment, before looking at Kaede.

Oh um, there's nothing specific I want, so just grab whatever you can get for me, I think. Thank you very much for even offering to get food for me, though!

She'd had her doubts but Kaede was definitely a very nice person. Waving to Kaede as she left, Delice would then get to work looking for all of the alchemy equipment, though she had no idea where it was. Maybe some of it was in the back room?

She cracked the door open, just to take a peek inside, not actually stepping through the door.

Kaede was finishing up at one of the shops she planned to visit by the time the magic ping clicked. A sigh as she assumed the worse, the girl was just acting it seemed and she was hopeful it was not that case. But as the door was creaked open Delice would see bitch black darkness, the magic ward hiding what was beyond but also altering the witch someone tried to see what was within. If she tried to step in or disrupt the magic it would quickly show it was made by someone at the limit of current players and not a simple task while Kaede cut her shopping short to return.

If Delice was still trying to get the magic to vanish, or tried to walk inside she would find the door quickly move to close it off and or push her away from it each time she tried. The door itself gaining words written into the wood 'I don't think a pure little heart like you wants to go in there alone.' and would stay there until Kaede got back with the few bags she had and slightly winded having rushed over. Setting the bags down as she slightly glared at the Faerin for a bit before sighing and trying to act less mad then she was.

"I warned you not to try the back room, just be glad I did not let the defense magic set take effect or you be in a entirely different position and dealing with a entirely different side of me little heart stealer.~"

Moving to pick up the Faerin by trying to reach under her arms and moved her to the spot where the equipment was covered up at. Setting her down and uncovering it as she leaned down to nibble on the Faerin's ear while a hand gently slapped the girls butt before moving back to unpack the groceries. Setting most into cabinets but the little cakes on a somewhat clear table as she took one and started to eat waving for Delice to take the other if she wanted. The items stored had mostly been pre made meals or eat as is showing Kaede did not like to cook or could not.

Opening the door just a crack to try to look through it, Delice blinked when her vision was filled with blackness. An unnatural darkness filled the room and no matter how much she strained her eyes in an attempt to see, she couldn't make out even the slightest detail within the room. It was more as if the door had opened to a wall that had been painted with the darkest possible black paint that a person could ever get their hands on.

Clearly the gap in abilities between herself and Kaede was immense, because instinctively, Delice could feel that there was no way in this world that she would ever be able to undo the darkness at her current level and skill. Nor did she have any kind of magic that would allow her to even begin to interact with spells and magic herself, considering how indirect a method of magic Alchemy was, if it could even be considered to be a school of magic in the first place.

So she gave up pretty quickly, moving away from the door. She'd ask Kaede to help her find the rest of the alchemy supplies when the clinic owner returned.

And surprisingly enough, Kaede returned sooner than expected. Unsurprisingly, though, she was pretty upset at the faerin girl. Delice gasped as she was manhandled, her ear nibbled and her butt slapped, pink coloring her cheeks, though she, perhaps surprisingly, didn't speak out against it. In fact, there even seemed to be a soft smile on her face.

I-I'm sorry. I-I couldn't find the rest of the alchemy supplies and t-thought they might be in there.

She still reached out to take the offered cake, though.

Kaede was not dense enough to not notice the reaction to her actions, but as she moved away to get to enjoying some food while moving to clear a spot on the couch beside her pointing for Delice to sit down next to her while they ate. Part of her was curious why the girl would think things would be stored in two areas when Clinics had to be ready to go at moments notice so most things would reasonable be stored near the other parts of it. Shrugging as she took a bite of her little cake and pointed to the cabinet near the alchemy supplies.

"Anything else that goes with that set that I have would be in there. if I'm missing something or to that nature you want something to work with that is not here can always let me know and I'll see if I can find or get it. Far as what is in that room it's my bedroom that is more used as a... well for lack of tack a sex dungeon by girls who like that sort of thing.~"

Kaede spoke so casually about such things she scared herself sometimes. Writing some of it off as her Taboo magic removing some of her hesitation and the rest simply her finding it to fun to see how others reacted to such things. Eating her cake happily while a bit of magic sparked around her causing black tendrils with clawed hands to slither out from under her clothing to grab and move things around as she figured with more common company she would need to tidy up more.

"All said and done, Far as payment goes i have thought of a few things. There was the things you suggested about me getting rights to sell what you make, but I'd also have to pay for the supplies and run test to make sure it is safe to sell openly or if needed sold discreetly... The other idea for payment that would not cripple you as much as every so often dates or nights spent with me.~ Sure I know my girlfriend will be mad I'm still spending time with other girls but I did try and tell her getting me on a tight leash like she wants is going to take a lot of work.~ Much more so if a girl who fits my taste almost perfectly starts working in my clinic.~"

Kaede happily chimed as she set down the empty plate that once had cake and took no time to try and pull Delice into her lap and cuddle her own face against the Faerin's while her hands teasingly pulled at the girl's clothing. She had little to no restraint knowing her advances had yet to been shot down and wondered where the line was drawn. Sure she still had her curse and hex on herself that made getting much pleasure from this possible she could still have her fun.~

Delice could only blush as Kaede pointed out the folly in her thinking so quickly. Of course everything that was part of the set would be stored together. Why had she even thought there was a chance that some of it was held separately from the rest ot it? Such a stupid, amateur mistake. Granted, she was herself a stupid amateur, so it wasn't exactly the worst thing in the world. She meekly took her place sitting next to Kaede, blushing deep crimson when Kaede revealed what the true purpose of that room was. Was that what the darkness had been hiding? A dungeon?

Her face still bright red, if this were an anime her head would have been steaming, she wordlessly nodded and continued to eat her cake in silence, though she did watch, astonished, as a tendril emerged from Kaede's clothing and began to move things around.

And then Kaede revealed the offer of an alternative method of payment. Delice blinked, before squeaking. Dates and spending the night!? How could the woman ask for something like that when she was taken?

I-I don't want to, y'know, m-make things bad or tense between you and your girlfriend! W-Wouldn't tha-EEP!

She was cut off as Kaede picked her up and pulled her into her lap, their faces cuddling whilst Kaede pulled at her clothing. She squeaked, swallowing. She wasn't able to say no or tell Kaede to stop, though. It wasn't in her nature to deny anybody anything.

Even if that thing was Delice herself.
