"Is it better one or two? Two or three? Three or one?" The poor kid in the chair was sweating, clearly stressed out. Mizuki bit her lip. "Just take it slowly, there's no need to rush…" The kid gulped again and asked if she was honest. Mizuki assured him she was, and thinsg went on like that. "Looks like you do need glasses." She could assign a prescription on the spot too given how clear certain patterns had been. "Also remember to actually rest your eyes and continue those strengthening exercises I told you to." She hoped he would, but it was always hard to tell how much a child would retain.
Stretching as she finished up her exam and sent the kid on his way, Mizuki looked to her nurse assistant. "When is my next appointment?" Half an hour. She had half an hour to go unless the person came in early. Mizuki nodded and started to head up front. She liked to sit in the waiting room and watch the TV rather than hole up at her desk doing nothing of huge important. Half an hour was literally nothing by comparison. Oh look, Scrubs was on. That was rather nice.

With the league majorly clearing her to start running her gym again, they were putting her through some final tests to make sure she hadn't suffered any long term damage...other than the obvious. With Jazz's new arm for her getting their official stamp of approval, they made sure she passed her physical tests, made sure the arm was well aligned (and reminded her not to punch challenges too hard with it), and of course just generally getting her heart tested, which lead to a brief giggle when the League's doctor didn't check the dextrocardia part of her medical history.
Right now she was getting sent to get her eyes tested. With a new arm and a pretty deadly one to receive a punch from at that, they wanted to make sure her hand eye coordination was on the mark. She had had...shaky moments in the past, but she usually accounted them to stress, but hey, if it was something it didn't hurt to get tested right? Ya never know if you see the world differently till you get tested afterall.
Hands in her pockets she shouldered her way through the door, rubbing her hands together to warm up once she was inside, and instantly regretting it as the freezing metal just made it worse. Muscles tightening as she tried to purge that instinct from her head, she walked up to the front desk and gave in her name for her appointment before being guided to the waiting room, stepping inside and slipping her hand back into her coat pocket, eyes flicking between the TV and the woman watching it as she found a seat for herself.
"Oooo. This the musical episode?" As if confirming Turk and JD broke into song, and she fell back into the seat she'd found, dramatically, but quietly singing along. "Its guuuuy love between twooo guys!~"

On some level, Mizuki was aware of the blonde-haired woman who had entered the office. She was also aware that it was probably her appointment since the other doctors were out, and the surgeon was only ever here on Fridays for some reason. On another level, however, she was deeply amused by Turk and JD as usual and could stand to watch for a few more minutes before saying anything.
At least until the woman sat down and commented on the TV. "Yep," she answered looking back and sitting back a little. She had seen… entirely too much of this and a couple other shows including Grey's Anatomy while going through med school, but Scrubs had a certain baseline humor that was just on point most of the time. As Mia started singing along with that part of the song, Mizuki snorted softly. "Their bromance is something isn't it?" she mused looking sideways at Mia. "Truly magical."

Noting the woman sitting in the room a little more seriously Mia easily spotted that she probably wasn't here to see a doctor, more so see a patient. Still, wasn't hard to assume she was on break, and hey she got here like 10 minutes early herself, she could afford to listen to a song or two before she got her eyes tested. "One hell of a bromance...ya know I always liked Turk. He like...owned being a stereotype despite not being a stereotype." That made little to no sense and she snorted at herself once she heard the words come out of her mouth. "Okay like, I dunno how much you watch, but there's literally an episode that points out how stereo-typically white he acts, and he spends half the episode in crisis and it makes the point far better than I'm doing right now."
Thinking about it she probably liked that a little more now because of how she reacts to owning being a lesbian, despite the fact she used to be in love with a guy, at least physically.
Shaking her head she brushed the thought away, trying not to linger on the Turk comments incase she slipped up with anything there. "So you work here or like, dropping by to see a friend doctor?"

Hmmm? Mizuki's eyebrow quirked, but her lips remained rather neutral. The explanation that followed had her glancing forward again. "It's funny the way he says it," she agreed. Maybe it shouldn't have been funny considering the identity crisis part, but she'd been there done that all through medical school and residency.
The question, however, had her warming into a simple smile. "Ah, yes I work here. I'm Dr. Kaimana, a pleasure," she explained shifting to offer a hand. "There was a break between patients, and paperwork's no fun~" She grinned a little teasingly before shrugging her shoulders again. "Though I take it you're Ms. Kearney?" If not from the advertisement she'd seen in Liggs, her recognition would come from remembering the name on the computer she'd looked at only a bit before.

"eheh...yeah guess it does..." She sank into her seat a little, taking even that comment as a small hint she was probably wrong for liking that aspect of the show, at least when she put it into words like that...so he liked being his own stereotype. She liked being hers. It was a cool stereotype who wouldn't wanna be it?
About to kick up her feet on the table full of magazines for waiting patients, Mia caught the answer to her question...Kaimana...Kaimana...where had she heard that before...she put it aside for a moment as she snickered at the comment about paperwork, pushing off the arm of her seat, reaching out with her metal hand. "Same 'ere!~" Falling back into her seat she was clearly in no rush if the doctor wasn't, resting her cheek against a fist propped up by the arm of her chair. "That'd be right...and you're..." Come on it was on the tip of her tongue...oh! Sitting up she clapped her hands together before pointing at her.
"You related to the interpol guy? Artificial leg, scruffy chin?"

Hmmm??? "You know Takeki?" Well, that actually wasn't too much of a surprise given how from her understanding, Interpol and the League worked rather closely with one another. A small chuckle escaped from her at that. "He is my little brother," she emphasized with a small smirk. Even if they were only a year apart most of the year, he was still forever her little brother with Yamato being the baby brother, heh. This probably shouldn't have been as big a deal considering how old they were all now, but here she was anyways. A small, cat like quirk of her lips and a look of mild deviousness in her eyes would shift her demeanor quite a bit. "Can I ask how he's doing with that~?" If Mia knew and was willing to share, of course.

Right on the money! Knew she recognized that name from somewhere and managed to pull off a right guess there it seemed. Hehehhe. "Small world." She lightly muttered as the woman went on, tilting her head up a little unsure what she asked, but really the answer was the same so what did it matter. "Ah I er...wouldn't know. He was meant to be working with me on some joint League and Interpol thing, but I was pulled off the mission after...well." She lifted her right arm and tugged at the sleeve so the woman could get a better look, the tattoos from crhstimas gone and leaving a more simplistic design, still courtesy of Nik. "Yeah...hard to keep a mission going when you're in physical therapy."
Despite her words she was pushing a light smile to the surface. "Hey though, if I ever get back on the mission I'll let 'em know I say ya? He not live in Faraday or summit?"

Mizuki's eyes did grow as Mia pulled back the sleeve to reveal her prosthetic. Hard to keep a mission going when you're in physical therapy. Yeah, she'd say that was an understatement there, just a little. At least Mia seemed to be taking it well? Depending on how long ago that was, it seemed as much.
"Yeah, we both do," she answered Mia's question bringing up a couple of hairs to curl behind her ear. "Though I moved more recently with my wife and our kids." She beamed a little more at that. "You just might meet more of them running around in time." She guessed with Hiro being a League professor, that would inevitably be a given? Maybe not depending on the League's size- and yet small world either way?
Looking back to the screen momentarily, Mizuki rolled her shoulders not ready to stand just yet "How about we get your eyes dilated at least since that takes the longest." And tended to be the thing her patients liked the least, heh. She couldn't blame them, but there was no other way to test certain eye functions.

Mia was weirdly uplifted to know Kai had family in town. He seemed like a bit of a grouch from what she recalled but maybe that'd get better with some family to keep 'em company. The mention of a wife and kids got a brief rise, but only cause she encountered far fewer homesexual marriages than any others. The mention of kids also did raise an obvious question but maybe it was best she save that till they were doing some more doctor patient banter during her test...could you really banter during an eye test? Wasn't exactly like a blood test or a haircut. Probably required a lot more specific talking.
"Dialated eyes coming right up." Kicking up from her seat, taking that as a sign that the two would start moving even without the woman rising from her seat. She worked her way out of her coat to get comfortable, wearing the "if your happy and you know it clap your-oh." (though she had gotten her mum to cut and re-sow the bottom so it gave her a half-midrift (yes it might be weird she got her mom to make her a midrift shirt but Henne Kearney just loved to help)) Shirt Nik got her for Christmas. "I er...ain't had my eyes tested for years. Dialation's like...eyes widening right? I gotta stare into a light?"

As Mia stood up, Mizuki rolled both shoulders before slowly forcing herself up out of her seat. Ah, that click was her back and the other two her shoulders. She really needed to… get up off her otherwise sedentary lifestyle and move around more. It was entirely too easy not to, though. As Mia shrugged off the jacket to reveal her shirt, Mizuki's hand clasped her mouth to keep from laughing. Oh, that was… terrible and terribly funny even now that Mia could technically clap said hands now. Had they met on the street, Mia might have found Mizuki wearing just a t-shirt and jeans with that t-shirt ranging in print from designs to puns.
The question brought her back down again, and a small nod was given. "It widens your pupils so we can see the back part of your eye," she explained. "There's actually some eye drops that'll do it rather quickly, though they sting just a little. You ok with that?" Some of her patients, especially her younger ones, struggled with eye drops and the like. She couldn't quite blame them either given the nature of sight and how something closing in on one's eye tended to force it closed out of habit.
Turning and starting to the door that divided the patient rooms and the waiting area, she held it open for Mia before gesturing to the room down the hallway. What would be found was a tall chair and several machines including a projector that showed off the letters on the far wall.

Smirking a little as she spotted what was making her doctor for the evening nearly burst into giggles, she proudly rested her hands on her hips in a manner that helped display the shirt, looking down over it herself, not able to fully appreciate it from her angle of course but enjoying it all the same. "Pretty nice huh?~ Gift from my girlfriend for Christmas. They're a prick, but a funny prick.~" With a casual shrug to show she didn't mind the offensive aspect of it, she followed the woman's guidance to the room they'd be using, hoisting herself up into the chair and considering the drop...she didn't really like shit in her eyes but she was a tough gal so-
"I'll take the drops. I've probably felt worse whatever it's like..." She would sit however she was told to, making sure she was comfortable before jolting back up. "Oh, real quick. I doubt it but any of this eye stuff use magnets? My arms got some computer doo-dads in it so...yeah. I'd need to take it off." She stared off into space and let off a light scoff-laugh. "I still can't get used to the fact that that's possible."

Awe, that was as cute as it was playfully mean wasn't it? A small chuckle escaped from her a bit lower than before, a simple nod given. Good, good.
As Mia sat down in the chair, Mizuki fished through her drawer, pulling out the correct numbing drops and dilation drops right after. The spring up, however, had her tensing a little. H-hmm? Magnets, did she have any strong magnets in any of these devices? Her gaze flickered around a moment to the numerous items there.
"Ah, no nothing bigger than a refrigerator magnet which I'd guess something like that could tolerate?" she ask-stated a bit unsure of that. She'd stuck such magnets to electronics and vaguely messed them up as a child but that… included stuff like old fashioned radios and whatnot. The way Mia looked off and the like, however, had Mizuki pausing. "In a good or bad way?" she finally asked a bit softer.

Snapping out of her daze a little, hearing the first answer but only reacting to the following question, she took a second to properly process the thought before shaking her head with a light chuckle. "Almost alarmingly neutral...just...hard to really process the fact I can casually take my arm off...but it's also pretty damn cool. I mean it's got an-" She realized she was probably going off a little too much and the tests hadn't even started, stopping herself before bringing up the MP3 player, and cutting herself off with. "Er...yeah. Fridge magnets are fine. Sorry I'll er..." She pulled her fingers across her lips in a zipped mouth motion before laying her head back again.
She settled as best she could, a little fidgety from the brief moment of thought lingering on her arm, the unsettling sensation of the thought itself only heightening the sensation that she felt she was being a bit too friendly...which made her fidget more until she was comfy and all in all she just felt more and more awkward. Any pain created by the drops would probably be a help in resetting her system though.

The way in which Mia spoke had Mizuki briefly smiling- up until she cut short and changed tangents. Some part of her wanted to ask further, to maybe get to understand a little better or just keep her talking. Still, dilation would take about thirty minutes which included just waiting time, so they could continue that then.
"Alright," she answered shifting to pull on some gloves and adjust the numbing drops. Leaning Mia's chair back a couple of inches, she held the dropper upwards. "Focus your up as much as you can," she answered before dropping one drop in one eye and then another drop in the other. Leaning back and handing Mia a tissue in case she wanted to dab her eyes, she fished up the second one and repeated the procedure. The numbing drops were probably the worst of it sting wise, as their job was to keep the latter form being even more painful. Still, it wasn't a fun time, and Mizuki knew that well enough. "There, all done, you're going to have to sit and wait until the drops kick in- so why don't you tell me about that arm?" she offered warmly.
