Ash nodded. "Alright then."

Jinx looked down. "T-think s-she w-was r-right." She whispered haltingly, "M-my h-head m-must b-be   b-b-broken. I-i'm t-too d-different."

Ash and Jinx are hanging out at the Clinic. And I'm trying to figure out what to do there. You could have a person join them at the Clinic

There's a group in the basement that I don't know much about.

There's a group in some city somewhere that's... honestly I've been reading all their posts and I'm rather confused at what is happening there.

Bookwyrm and Insa are lost on some planet after a failed attempt to trap a god. They're trying to figure out their next steps. You could maybe add a person there? But I'm not entirely sure what if anything Bookwyrm had in mind for the planet. We don't have a plan really as far as I'm aware.

"Oh honey. No." Ash got out of her chair and sat down in front of Jinx.  "Everyone is different. You've been through a lot. And I don't think you got the proper help to move forward. Most people like you look broken in the head to people who don't care to look close enough." She made very deliberate eye contact with Jinx. "You're head isn't broken. It just needs a little help. Everyone's head does sometimes." She smiled softly. "That's why there are doctors like me. We're here to help make sure everyone gets the help they need."

Tal winced. “Babysitting is a harsh way of putting it…”

Pete flinched. 

His eyes widened. He dropped the pitchfork and ran. 

“Wai-“ She cursed, burned pewter, and chased after him. 

She didn’t know that you were supposed to burn away all metals before you slept, so she immediately felt nauseated. 

Choking back bile, she yelled, “Pete!”

Ash wrapped her arms around Jinx. "You aren't. I've never met somebody who was past the point of help."

Um... Anyone? I'm not quite sure. Ash works at the Clinic as a doctor. Jinx is a newer character and on the younger side. We haven't done much but I was gonna try to get them out to do something soon. Whatever you want should work I think. Sorry I know that's probably not super helpful.

Jinx nodded, crying into Ash's arms. "W-w-what i-i-if-f" She stuttered but was unable to finish.

Ash rocked a little side to side. "Take a breath. Try to ask your question again."

Maybe someone who could also mentor Jinx in something? Try to help her be more confident? Maybe bring in some magic? Also Stick if you have any ideas for the new character go ahead and share them! You are an important part of this storyline!

Ash continued rocking. "The best part of being young is that you have plenty of time to learn. I would say no young person is too far gone. We'll always have time to teach them something and help them somehow."

Consider a damaged spirit that sought out the Clinic to be healed?

Perhaps the spirit could eventually fill that role when healed and therefore more human?

Clinic: Basement

Tal shrugged. "Not really. I sort of...just...came." He winced. "It was a weird time."

He ran into the back room and slammed the door. She heard several locks click.

Ash shivered slightly and looked up at the thermostat confused. The temperature in the Clinic was generally stable. It didn't change often.

She hugged Jinx a little tighter, attempting to keep the breeze from scaring her or make her cold.

Little points of light seemed to swim in her vision.

They did not disappear, but her blinking made it apparent that they were not artifacts of her vision, but tiny pinpricks of light floating in the room.

Ash squinted at the spots of light.

"Who are you?" She whispered, still doing her best not to scare Jinx.
