[ If Douman's alright being pulled along, only one hand will let go so Akira can fetch his phone from the small table next to his reading chair. A pro to catching him in his study, a lot of the things currently demanding his attention are well within reach. A con is having to watch your step around over a hundred year's worth of book piles.

Usually my mornings are pretty booked up, and I keep some openings in the evening in case of emergencies--a lot of people like to get their appointments out of the way both early in the day and early in the week, it's actually pretty neat to look into! So our best bet is sometime in the afternoon around Thursday or Friday.
Exactly! Maybe not the candles, open flames could be dangerous, but...I treat my inpatients with utmost care! It may as well be a lovely little vacation for them.
Ooh, you could even tell them that if they start getting cold feet?
[ Takahashi Akira, a man with an absurd amount of money who could very easily do that...laughs at the idea. ]
That's going a little overboard, don't you think? Besides, sending someone who will no doubt have fresh stitches somewhere with a pool would just be mean.
[His idea is sounding worse and worse the longer they keep talking, but he's already in for it now. All he can do is to try and limit the damage in advance.]

A book pile gets nearly rammed, and Douman has to pull his hand free to steady it before it starts tilting too much.]
Let's take a Friday, then. That way ...they will be free as well. It's less conspicuous when you have a full weekend to work with, isn't it?
[He is really working against himself right now, but he'd rather not have to come up with an excuse for why he's missing on a school day.]

[ Not quite like that, Akira, but at least no one can say he doesn't have the spirit. ]

That last bit was as honest as I'd rather not have heard that. Didn't I say to not take them out of commission for too long?

[ A thought. ]
But you bring up a good point. I should go ahead and get to work on an aftercare guide for them so we can jump right into business once they're here.
[ Headed towards his desk now, pretty sure he's just forgotten to let go of Douman's hand at this point. ]

Then I will leave you to that. I need to return and keep an eye on school business anyway.
