    Summary

    (A neater, reheated iteration of a work I almost abandoned. Between the 10th Anniversary Undertale stream and Deltarune chapters, I found inspiration to return to it. We'll see how long that lasts.)

    You have a new name after burning your old one, and the bridges that led to it. You simply go by Y now, and you are a financial advisor in what used to be a moderately busy tourist hotspot. West Ebbot and Greater Ebbot, a township and city within view of a grand lake and mountain, are husks of their former selves. You know better than to over-confidently think yourself an economic lynchpin, here at your humble banking job, but you do the best you can.

    When the polluted lake gets cleaned up, it's too late for the tourism to return. Some years after though, something happens at the mountain that makes it the main attraction instead. The panic of pressure to preform is secondary to the relief of your assuredly continued usefulness, and therefore employment.

    Money is necessary for goods and services. It's what society agreed to run on first and foremost, right?

    Other sensations are luxuries.

    Summary

    When he turned back, she was unbuttoning her blouse. She wore no undershirt, just a plain black bra. Typically, she wore T-shirts and rolled up the sleeve. That day, she had to undress...
    (Harvey was a professional. The human body was his bread and butter; there was a mundanity to nudity when you dealt in anatomy. In his life, both in his practice and out in the wild, he’d seen many shoulders. Many stretches of soft skin. Many black bras. But there in that office, that cold, humming room, her eyes soft on his face, it felt like the very first time.)
    -----------------
    Not long after near-death in the mines and that night in the clinic, the Farmer all but disappears from the face of Pelican Town. Then, she misses the last appointment for her rabies vaccination.
    The Doctor will not stand for this.

    Summary

    A question burned in his throat. Finally, he asked it: “What can I do to make you to stop?”
    (Truth be told, he’d give her anything she asked to keep her out of those mines. She just had to name the price. All the money he could muster, all the precious metal he could pluck from the earth. He’d be her scarecrow, standing out in her field, chasing birds away from her crops if it meant she’d stay inside and just sit still. Just let her bones heal. Her budget was infinite. If she wanted it, it was hers.)
    The Farmer considered him, her eyes tracing all along his face. She shrugged her good shoulder, shook her head. “Nothing.”
    ______________

    Long past midnight, The Doctor is awoken once again by his most prolific customer.
