Lady Sigyn

-

“I am Groot!” He couldn’t just wait! It was an emergency! “I am Groot.” He started to explained, showing the lady the little swallow he was carefully holding in his hands. “I am Groot.” He added, he wasn’t sure tho, maybe the little one hurt himself against a window or a cat tried to eat him, he had no clue, he just found the little guy knocked out on the street. Since then Groot ran everywhere in Hell’s Kitchen to find a doctor, Sigyn’s clinic was the first one he had found. “I am Groot?” He asked, deeply concerned, ready to run somewhere else if the lady couldn’t help them.

        “Oh.” Sigyn’s tone is hushed as her attention is pulled from her notes and to the small bird nestled in the other’s hands. Of all the things she was prepared for at any given moment, a Flora Colossi holding a swallow was far from anything she could have expected. She set her pen aside and turned more fully to face him, gently reaching out to lightly touch the bird’s head. “The poor thing. Of course.” The goddess traced a delicate rune over the bird, the faint teal of her magic spreading to envelop him and if he wasn’t too close to gone it would mend his injuries.

Jessica felt herself relax a bit. She was not questioning why, maybe her instinct to just endure. “No worries Doc. I’m allergic to Flerken, and no, not really. “  she answered. The next question however gave her pause. “I… think I’m …pregnant…I just need…confirmation “

✻

        “Luckily I haven’t seen a Flerken in a number of years.” She kept her tone light as she made her way over to the woman, smile softening just slightly. There were any number of worries that came along with pregnancy, and while Sigyn wasn’t sure what the woman was feeling exactly she did have some understanding. “Here, if you’d be so kind as to give me a name? It can be any name you’d like, just something for my own records.” She passed a small notepad and pen to the other before she shifted her focus to her spell.

“Alright.” Verity replied, used to it. It wasn’t the first time she was coming there to see Sigyn, it was easier and closer than going to the castle. So she waited and took a seat, coffee and donuts in her paper bag next to her. Her earbud still on, despite the fact that she wasn’t listening to any music, those were only there to soundproof the lady from how noisy New York could be.

        “Verity,” she mused, finally tucking her notes away into her desk before turning to face the other. Sigyn had come to enjoy the woman’s company, and was always pleasantly surprised when she chose to visit - regardless of the circumstances. “It’s always a delight. I hope you’re well?” 

Jessica nodded and silently sat down .  She was nervous, more so then when facing the ugliest of humankind or alienkind. Part of her wanted to spider monkey out of here, but she needed to be sure , needed to make sure before informing the select few.

        “Forgive me,” Sigyn offered a gentle smile as she finally turned to the other, lacing a small trace of calming energies into her words - not enough to squash what the woman was feeling, just a trace to hopefully ease her mind. "And thank you for waiting. I’m Gen, and I do have a few basic questions for you, but no forms to fill out. I simply need to know if you have any allergies, if you mind magic being used during the examination, and what exactly I can do for you today?”

        “Please have a seat, I’ll be right with you.” Sigyn hadn’t even looked up when she heard the bell above the door ring, still jotting down notes after her last patient had left.

“I’m sorry, but this is mathematically… incorrect.”

        “Is it? It was something a patient left with me. I had assumed it was some sort of puzzle, but I hadn’t considered looking at it in terms of mathematics. It’s been a decent way to pass the time, but I imagine being able to properly solve it will be a bit more enjoyable.”
