"I know, its crazy, right? No fight, no stimulus other than her own project. Honestly I've never seen a Digimon so driven before."
He gave a smirk. Holly was so mature in some aspects, and yet still so naive and child-like in others, but it was a charm that Mikemon wouldn't change for the world. A relatively short time later, with K fully bandaged up, they seemed to pick the conversation right where it dropped off.
"Well, some of it will be up to me, some of it will be up to the school... and like it or not, doctors do make mistakes. I've had a few of my own while I was learning." He shook his head - it was clear he didn't prefer to dwell on those thoughts, though maybe he'd have to tell Holly a tale or two about them at another time.
He'd let K nestle right on in, stroking his wife's side as he leaned right back against her. And he couldn't help but snrk. Really, a mad doctor? "Our very own little supervillain..."
Speaking of, movies! The cat gave a blink, tilting his head a bit at the thought. "I'm for whatever you want to do, of course. I don't know if the kids were saying movies just because they were just trying to give you a break or if there's actually something they wanted to see. But either way..."
He'd give that shoulder a look, eyes tensing as he briefly looked at the data structure. "Another twenty, thirty minutes, and I'll get Holly down here to help. And by the time we're done, it might already be a good bit into the evening..."

"and think when she does have external stimulus, how quickly she'll grow and adapt. Develop even. I'm excited to... well... Err.. I'm. Tch."
K was at a loss for words, what sort of excitement was there knowing that holly was going to have a bright future? One that she couldn't see. Sure her youngest daughter could be mature, but she was naive and child like elsewhere. She wanted to see how that went in the future but she didn't have that chance. K was glad that the conversation shifted because she honestly didn't know how else to go.
"Hopefully the school can reign her in a little bit if you can't, or vice versa. I'm aware that they make mistakes, everyone does I just hope that it's not... terrible for her you know?"
K closed her eyes softly and let out a smooth sigh as she felt her husbands touch. Well not so much a mad doctor as a mad scientist that was for the world rather than against it. Though that had it's own edge of a super villain didn't it?
"Little savior, little super villain... little mad scientist. There's a lot we could say heh..."
K snickered lightly and ran her hand along her husbands cheek, sighing wistfully as the conversation went to the movies. If they didn't want to do the movies that was fine and if they wanted to do something else that was fine too.
"Either way it was nice of them to think of me like that. I hope that they can at least enjoy the movie... if not we can do something else?"
K knew the look that followed and bit her lip softly. She'd stare down at her husband as he gave her a prognosis. Another twenty or thirty minutes and they'd hopefully have her arm in better shape but... By the time they were going to be done it'd be evening and the renamon was already feeling like she was going to fall asleep.
"Lets stay here a little longer then..."
Holly on the other hand was now upstairs, shut in her room scribbling away furiously. There were hundreds upon hundreds of options in front of her, she could feel jade floating around nervously behind her. The smaller orbs were coming to n fro dropping off the books she requested while some of her clones handled the research she had asked them to.
"Is this really something we should do holly?"
"I've had those dreams ever since unlocking that form. Of a big tiger of some kind you know that. And all these sigils, these.. things it tells me. If it's not for us it's got to be for others."
"AHAH! Found something!"
"What is it?"
"says in here that one of the sovereigns was a tiger like in the dreams. But if that's true why do we have something like that?"
"Dunno. We're not a sovereign, if we were I feel like we'd have a lot more people lookin to kick our door in."
"We're not a sovereign you goobers. If we were we'd have more than just our memories right? So the only real answer here is that this form is a gift from our data structure. One that we can use to help people. But the question is how do these sigils, symbols and information these dreams are giving me correlate..."
All the clones sort of paused and the main holly continued sketching down the plethora of information that her mind was processing at that moment... She hadn't forgotten about her ma or da, or the situation. If anything this sparked something... odd.

"Don't worry, the school will be able to keep her in-line well enough. You saw the brochures before, right? She got into a nice place in Luminas, one I can personally vouch for."
He gave a grin, nuzzling against K's palm, simply nestling right up against the fox to cuddle. This was nice too, of course: just being able to smile and spend a relaxing evening with his wife. Now the day was actually going at their pace, and as expected, they didn't need that much else, not more than each-other.
"We can figure something out, don't worry. Stingmon's collection of human world movies has some impressive gems in it - mm..." Well, if she'd be up for it, anyway. It might have to wait until tomorrow morning.
Still, this day wasn't quite done yet.
Honestly, Mikemon had half a mind to come up there and tell Holly to keep it down, but considering what she was focusing on, the doctor thought better of it. He'd spend that time calmly with the fox, idly talking about their kids, the schools they got into, Syre's involvement with the mission guild...
... But, eventually, the time would come. He'd give Holly a page on her D-Terminal, before standing up, stretching out her back.
"Well, if nothing else, you'll get to see Holly as a 'Clarimon'. She's got quite the interesting mega!"

"She decided to go with luminas? Doesn't whitewater have better medical schools?"
K furrowed her brow a little bit and then gently rubbed her husbands ear. Sighing gently as they were able to spend a little time together, it was always nice spending time with him even now when she knew she had so little. She always loved it and would always love it, she hoped distantly that her next iteration would be the same.
"At the worst I don't see why we can't just try the tv and see what's on it..."
K let out a small chuckle and rubbed her muzzle, she could feel the edge of exhaustion creeping up on her and well... She didn't know exactly what she could count on in terms of doing what. She didn't mind waiting if this meant more time with them realistically.
Holly didn't mean to be loud, but between her clones, orbs and her own muted mumbling it would of created quite the racket. K was glad to hear more about her children somewhat surprised to hear about the schools and she couldn't help but grin ear to ear about syre's involvement with the mission guild. She was shaping up to be quite the power house!
"Clarimon? I never heard of that one... Our children are full of surprises no?"
Holly's ears flicked, all her clones vanished and the meicrackmon had to deal with the resounding headache that followed. It was time already huh? Well Holly didn't have time to waste, taking all of her notes, the written and those in her head. She'd have jade carry the books back to their spots and come down looking fairly determined. Sorting through the papers she'd pass the ones bearing the sigils, some markings and information that she had gathered in the last thirty minutes or so.
"I went with some ideas that I had, some dreams and... well information I could find regarding what I think... one of my next forms is. I think it could be useful in the long term even if I can't access it now. Clarimon is a good median for now but..."
The meicrackmon hummed a bit and sized her mother up; mulling quietly over what she could do given the situation. A lot of the stuff she wrote up wasn't anything like before and she had spent a little bit of time getting used to the idea of not treating stuff as intensly with 'magic'. A lot of what she wrote was practical but... other things were vastly off, written in ways or using terminology that the meicrackmon shouldn't or couldn't know from the bits of information the library possessed. Just where was she getting this information from?
"So how are we doing this?"

"Well, Whitewater has a good one - but its really just because its tied to the hospital. In my opinion, the school in Luminas is far better for learning."
A simple enough explanation from a slightly tired cat. He gave a short chuckle at her idea to just turn on the TV... but to what, really? Ongoing news about the Demon Lord threat? The cat could pass on that for now, shrugging it off as he moved to other avenues of conversation. And a good while later, Holly, the MeiCrackmon, would bring herself down, still carrying all of her notes.
... Huh.
"Still thinking a few steps ahead there, hun?" With a small nod, the cat would stand up. "First of all, let's take this to my office so we can get mom here on a proper table. From there, we can get this going."
He'd lead right along, letting Holly help K out of her chair and to the observation room. He'd instruct K to lie forward on the table, and slowly peel the ice pack off of her shoulder. Right now, that arm felt nice and numb, thanks to the direct injection and the anti-inflammatory steroid from before.
"Well, your healing 'hands' are stronger than mine, Holly." He'd nod to her, and then towards K. "You should know a bit of what to do already, from your readings. The swelling is down, but you still need to be careful and precise. I'll let you know if you're using too much or too little, alright?"

"Ohhh... that makes sense. I've... never really been to luminas properly it was always....... negative in some fashion or another."
K sort of shook her head and sighed lightly. There wasn't much on tv that they could watch that wouldn't remind her of what had happened honestly. The renamon didn't mind the idea of spendingg time with her family and if they had better ideas she'd go with those ones. However when holly arrived with her notes the renamon gave a blink.
"Can't help it, if I don't think ahead I'll go stir crazy. And all right. Sounds like a good idea..."
Holly gently helped her ma up out of her chair, even while she was holding all of her notes. The meicrackmon had an easy time supporting her mother, being well.. an ultimate and all. The meicrackmon watched her ma lay down and bit her lip as the renamon didn't seem to react to the ice pack being removed.
Holly stepped forward and exhaled, placing her notes neatly on the desk before turning her attention to her mother. She'd snap her fingers and those jade orbs would come in, bobbing up and down quietly.
"....?"
"Healing formation."
The orbs whirred softly and took a gentle circle around the mother, the meicrackmon rubbing her face softly with both hands. She'd flick her ears at the idea that her healing hands were stronger than her da's. She'd let out a loose laugh and shake her head.
"stronger or not if I mess it up it'll be a bigger margin but. I'll try da. Clarimon or... the other one?"
Holly tilted her head lightly and rubbed at her neck, she hadn't shown either of her parents this next one and the orbs that were bobbing up n down seemed to be excited to be doing work with their friend.
"Oh. And uhm.... Hmm."
Holly leaned to look at her ma's arm, biting the inside of her cheek as she tried to picture what it must of looked like right now in there. She didn't have the same talent for that as her da so she had to work in a different fashion...

"I have faith in you, Holly. I know you've been practicing, been researching this for a long time, even before today."
Seeing those spheres set themselves into place, Mikemon would take his own mega form, feet kicking off the ground as he floated on next to the table. His eyes focused right on K's arm, better seeing its condition. Right now, Holly was going to learn something very important about being an office doctor:
She didn't have to work alone. "You have your healing and feel, I have my eyes. I'll follow your lead and you follow mine." He gave a confident smile - and as for the form? "Use whichever one you think would fit the situation better. Our end goal for today is to make your mother's arm work properly for the rest of the week. I've set up the groundwork as we've discussed before. Now, do you have a good image in your head of what you need to do?"

"...Thanks da..."
Holly stretched a bit and found herself frowning as she wasn't sure which form she should use still. The fact her da took the mega form he had meant this was rather serious and rather than leave it up to chance she'd take her clarimon form as she was better practiced with it. The soft gentle light that it gave off brought K's attention to her which only prompted a mix of confusion and curiosity.
"I do have a good image in my head. There's a few points I'd like to avoid in the arm itself as it could have unnessarary trickling."
The clarimon moved forward and gingerly placed her hands above her ma's injured arm. Exhaling slowly she'd start to work in the energy as she should, she was trying her hardest to control the energy she produced but it was obvious to mikemon she wasn't doing enough and this was going to take too long. But she was being very precise, very cautious and was paying excellent attention to her mother's reactions as muted as they were.
"I think I can expand into some of the secondary segments... this is gonna be slow work though..."
The clarimon's brow furrowed and she'd bend over her mother a bit, working on the arm as best she could and under the guidance of her father well.. it'd hopefully take no where near as long as it would if she was just on her own...

"You definitely have a good eye. We're going to be putting most of our focus into the shoulder as its in need of the most attention - everything else we can 'pick up' when we go lower down on the arm."
He gave a nod as Holly would start, Mikemon carefully observing her daughter's work. He did make a slight adjustment to the positioning of Holly's arms to start {"You need to relax yourself just a bit more, or your arms are going to tire out and start moving on their own later."), but overall she seemed to have a handle on this 'simple' healing procedure. There were a few moments where the Mikemon would direct her to pull back, and a few others where he'd ask her to well more power into the upper forearm.
But it was going to be slow work. Slow, methodical, careful, easily extending into the next hour through it all.
"That's part of the challenge of being a doctor, Holly." The cat gave a slow nod. "You have to be able to keep your attention up - to both your patient and the situation at hand - without losing focus. There's a reason I'm so particular about your sleep schedule, about how you take care of yourself, Holly. Its not just for you, but for the patient's benefit as well. We have to be consistently at our best for them."
Lightly squeezing a hand around K's free claw, he gave a nod towards the Clarimon.
"Because its not just texts and books. Our patients are individuals, just like you and me."

"All right Da."
Holly blinked a bit and kept working, adjusting as her da told her or moved her about. It was a good idea to let him sort of guide her in that sense as she hadn't really done a lot of this before. She seemed to be doing fairly well and was being rather cautious about how much energy she was pushing out into her mother. The slow hour crawled by and at the end the clarimon was now a meicoomon that seemed almost as tired as her ma.
"That makes a lot of sense... though sleeping longer than a couple hours is just really hard. But I'll... try to remember that."
Holly blinked again and looked between her parents before sighing softly. Taking a moment to herself so she could sit down and just sort of collect herself.
"I know that... I just... mmm..."
It didn't even take that long for holly to pass out once seated, the amused chuckle that followed from K was cut off by a groan as she felt the soreness of her arm set in.
"She's definitely our daughter. Putting everything into it even if it puts her out."
K would if allowed sit up, wincing lightly at the feeling in her arm. It would be tender but thanks to the two of them working on her she was able to for the most part have a good range of motion. Though she'd let out a sharp grunt as she felt a muscle twinge when she tried to raise it too high.
"Thank you dear.... I feel like this week would of been so much worse if that didn't get taken care of..."

Out like a light.
Holly's execution wasn't perfect on her own, but for the first time that Holly did a procedure like this, Mikemon was very proud of her. She definitely still had trouble sleeping ("I know, its something we need to work on."), but once she got that ironed out, she very well might become a promising medical professional.
"Mhm. She takes right after her dear mothing." Returning a smile, he'd help K sit up, nodding as she winced with the movement of her arm. It wasn't nearly as bad, however! "Make sure to sleep on your other side tonight, of course. And of course, you're quite welcome. Now..."
He'd move over to that chair, give a sigh, and genly lift the Meicoomon in her arms. "I'm going to get this one up to bed. Are you up for anything else tonight, or do you want to go ahead and get some sleep?"
It was up to K, of course. Though, that echoing thought slipped into the back of his head.
Four full days left.

K was glad that she was able to see her daughter at least start being able to treat people. Even if it was just her, she'd stare at the sleeping meicoomon and let out an earnest somewhat amused sigh at the idea that holly took after her in that regard. She'd grin a little bit and reach out with her 'good' arm, giving her husband a gentle rub between the ears.
"a little bit of us both really. You tend to go all in when it comes to doctoring too don't you?"
K stuck out her tongue just a little bit and was actually pretty grateful for the fact that he did. If he didn't well she might not be sitting here today! The renamon ran her hand along the arm that had just been treated, unlike earlier there weren't any sharp pains from just a simple touch.
"Well you know I sleep mostly on my back but I'll try."
K paused and watched her husband lift her daughter, she'd slide off of the table and reach out to gingerly pet her daughter's sleeping head. K closed her eyes a little bit and then mused over something. She'd stretch just a little bit and glance towards their bedroom.
"I think today is as good as any to break out that surprise that I have. If you take her to bed I'll go get it."

"Well. No sense leaving a problem unsolved, really."
He'd stick out his tongue right back, chuckling as they admired their daughter and her efforts. K seemed better for the effort, much more relaxed and not fighting obvious pains down her back and arm. A good night's sleep, and her arm was going to be as good as it was going to get.
K's next word brought out a flick from the doctor's ear. A surprise? "Alright, I'll meet you back out in the living area. Now, c'mon, kitten." Stronger than his stature would suggest, Mikemon would take Holly right out to her room, and set the Meicoomon on top of her sheets, giving her a small pat on the back of her head.
"Mom's proud of you. And her week's going to be much better because of your help. Sleep well... and try and get some proper shut-eye." His whispers were kind, and he'd slowly click the door shut as he walked out, taking a moment to catch his breath, pinching his sinus between two fingers.
He put a smile back on his face, and made his way back out into the hall. What was this about a surprise?

"That is true."
K grinned a little wider and stared down at her daughter. Thankful that she was blessed with such a family that she could both rely on and love with every ounce of her core. She'd flick her ears and watch her husband pick up her daughter. She'd watch him go for a moment and then trot to their room.
It was a long time coming really.
She'd gently pull aside the floorboards under the bed, a little 'hammock' resting there with a single somewhat damaged wine bottle. The contents themselves weren't harmed and the outer most layer seemed to be a little burnt, the label completely missing but... It was back from her inn, the sole remaining bottle of a particular brand of wine that she enjoyed.
It was hugely out of stock, no longer being made as the wine yards it came from had long since gone under. She'd blow off the bottle, noting that her hands were shaking a little bit. She'd close her eyes, feeling that wetness in her cheeks. She wanted to save this for their next anniversary but... There was no waiting.
She'd go out and sit on the couch, flick her ears lightly as she set the bottle down with the gentleness you'd expect her to give her children. She'd stare at it for a moment and then sigh.
Holly on the other hand seemed to be resting easy, though if the mikemon was any wiser he'd know that the meicoomon would likely be up in a few hours charged and ready to go. There was no trying about it unless he started getting her on medication, there was little to no reaction from her as she curled up on her bed. Her tendrils flicking as the door closed...

... And as the door closed, the halls were dead silent, the only light on the overhanging one in the common room. Feeling that lack of sound around him, the cat would give a sigh, and make his way right back to that living space, just trying to bat away whatever feeling was trying to creep its way into his head, the dread and the loneliness the silence brought with it.
Instead, he just pressed his way right back to the living area - blinking as he saw K sitting on the couch. His eyes slipped over to see that dusty bottle resting on the table. Vintage wine? But it was nothing like the cat kept in his own stock. The label seemed to suggest it had at least 30 years of age to it, and it was somewhat of a rare find.
"... Heh..." The cat gave a smirk, climbing up on that chair next to the Renamon. "Where'd a knight like you find the time to pick up something like that?"
