[her hands write down the information, and she looks at Anna for a moment, some inscrutable emotion passing across her face. not judgement, not consideration, but something like recognition. but how could it be?
Emily looks down at her notes and underlines a word.]
Taking your tolerance into consideration along with your build, I should be able to create a sedative that will ease your mind. It may not fully silence things on the first or second pass, but I would rather be cautious and increase the strength over time than leave you catatonic.
[and she might need certain ingredients, and Hibiki's instruction. which only left the black market as an option, and considering new suppliers. she'll have to ask for an escort - steady as she feels with the youkai in her body, it never hurt to have someone else watching.]
Would you prefer it in liquid form or a powder to mix?
[ Her answer is soft, distracted. Easier to carry about, easier to simply shove into her fucking mouth when a horror rises up in front of her. She studies Emily silently for a moment. ]
You remind me of her.
[ It is very like Anna to say these drifting, unmoored things. ]
Doctor Iosefka.
[ Before she was killed, replaced, of course. When she was soft, when she cared deeply for her patients. When she cared for the lost things knocking at her door in the night. ]
[another doctor. Emily's curious as to the woman's specialty, what she must have studied. there is no predicting, but there are commonalities to find.]
[ Maybe at some point she had sat outside the door and talked to her. Sometimes it could be sweet, but the night soon made it mournful. They all had their roles to play and Iosefka's was fleeting, something that could not survive the scourge. ]
She wanted to meet, in the morning. Morning does not come in Yharnam.
[ 'Decent' is not the reassurance Emily probably thinks it is. Anna has seen. She has seen what the veil of decency does to people. She says nothing for a moment. ]
Too much healing blood, wouldn't even know if I was.
I'll go ahead and mark that as a no, then. It means there will be a number of things I can look to in order to create something proper for you. I can't promise all of them won't be bitter, but such is how medicine works.
[and given what she has in stock, she can start making a base for one of them that afternoon, as it happens.]
My plan, if you agree to it, is to give you no more than one or two doses of what I make for you - enough to test if it works, but not so much that if it's ineffective anything would be wasted. All you have to do is tell me after each how you feel physically, your thoughts on its effectiveness, and if there are any side effects occurring. If you can't do that in person, over the phone is fine - I'll be making many notes so that I can deduce what's right for you.

...I'm sorry.
[that there was no morning to break.]
no subject
[ She regrets that. She studies Emily with shameless attention. ]
...You seem kind.
[ 'Seem' being the operative word. But what would she do when the world became ugly. ]
no subject
I merely do what anyone who calls themselves a physician should do. That's only decent, Miss Anna.
[but she's flattered, all the same.]
Are you allergic to anything?

Aye, I can phone.
[ She had gotten some basic cellphone lessons from the other Tamamo when everyone was twittering over EMBER. It's odd, but not impossible to use. ]
