Ayumu hadn’t gone to see Nurse Bubblegum in a while, mostly out of time constraints than anything. With whatever mom was working on wrapped up, they had time to set a real appointment, which happened to land on today’s date.

Every now and then Mrs. Kasuga sat Ayumu down and tried to explain “now I don’t think that…” something something “court order, his insistence, safest I could find” something something. It all kind of went over Ayumu’s head and she had a hard time focusing. It meant she got to see all the nice people down there, so she wasn’t sure what her mom was worried about.

All in all, she’s feeling pretty good when she gets called into the office. She happily opens the door, waving her arms brightly. “Hiya Miss Bubblegum!”

What do people normally do at a doctor's office?

[ohmygah]

I guess fix broken legs or something.

[GASP!] IS YOUR LEG OKAY?!

[flatview]

[ Osaka you walk right into these things. ]

Ohhh, I don't know! I might have hairline fractures!

[ohmygah]

YOU CAN FRACTURE HAIR?!

[flatview]

[ LAUGHING SO HARD ON THE INSIDE no.....must maintain the facade for this to work..... ]

Haven't you ever heard of split ends?

[ohmygah]

That's what that means?! I thought it meant that your hair got cut into two or something!

[flatview]

It's just another step in the painful process that is hairline fractures, actually! Make sure to use good shampoos!

[ohmygah]

[Nodding in a serious yet panicky fervor.]

I promise! I'll stay safe and never get a fracture!

[flatview]

Then, carry on...!

[ With a melodramatic wave and flourish, Nui steps into the office. That's the end of that charade!

Unless, of course, Osaka's not done talking, here... ]
