... Do you ever feel like you've lost the plot? Like of. Your own life.

I was on a vacation for like. A year. Maybe? Lost track of time.

And just. Everything feels like soup.

Apparently I'm more qualified to be a model than a scientist...?

What are you up to, then? If your head is giving you so much trouble.

A lif-- oh, like a midlife crisis?

Do you feel like you're, ah... having a crisis?

... Let's start in reverse. *gesturing a finger a little, as though mentally trying to write something down*

Why would you get hired on as a model instead of a scientist? If the latter is what you'd rather do more.

Why, though? What changed, exactly?

Whom exactly are you working for, anyway...? Or at least trying to work for.

Oh.

*making a face, like they absolutely understand the issue at hand*

Yes, actually, now I see the exact problem at hand here. You shouldn't be too hard on yourself in that case.

She got married to Noriko.

And as much as she's very nice and I'm fond of her, she also opted to entirely shut her brain off as a result, unless it's absolutely necessary to think.

I'm going to be honest and blunt:

You should find a different employer and get a second, or even a third opinion. *while I gently shake Noriko for being a terrible influence, even if Shiyoko chose this*
keepersouha: (... are you sure?)

[personal profile] keepersouha 2023-07-21 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm... still seems like a waste, taking her opinion as to your job worth at face value.

Maybe you should just see if someone can give you a grant and work solo? What do you generally work on, anyway?

Maybe it'd be a good idea to put together a portfolio of what you might be currently working on, then?

Though having such an extensive resume should already get attention...

I mean, the alternative is just being a model...

I work in the medical field for monsters and people with unusual situations, be it hybridism or abilities affecting their biology.

So let's start there: What can you do to assist in that area? I'm asking this rather sincerely, I do have a budget to allow for hirings.

So you have experience in hybridization surgery, in a sense? Did you use a particular essence for yourself and your sister, or is it a generalized "Fiend-type" element?

This might be relevant-- it seems there is a service now that's deep in testing that offers hybridization surgery, and I'm likely to have more clients who have gone through that, in the near future.

Sekou included.
