You've reached the direct line of Doctor Frederick Chilton. As I am not available at the moment, you might assume I'm quite busy with something pressing. State your name and business, and I will return your call."

Dinner. My treat.

- Christine

[slightlyoffchilt]

Do you know where you'd like to take us?

[mmnpcs]

To: Frederick Chilton
Message: Do you think I won't find out?

[detriments]

[Christine has been infected with type c of the disease, and, despite her ignorance, the symptoms have been becoming harder to ignore with time. Chilton is still on her mind when she thinks of how she's been slighted - and finally she's decided it's time to let him know exactly what she thinks. Perhaps this would have been a bad idea for the image she wants to keep, but those are consequences she is no longer factoring into the equation.]

Pick up, Frederick. I know you're there.

[She sounds irritated.]

( voice )

[slightlyoffchilt]

Christine. This is really not a good time.

voice; i realize this is very random I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND??

[godly]

[The weekend is upon him, and having the day-off at his job as an intern, plus being completely and utterly caught up with all of his classwork (he probably should have spaced it out better, in retrospect), Light still has a certain conversation lingering in his mind.

And since he's such a proponent against being idle and instead taking initiative, he figures he may as well reach out and see, for a lack of a better term, what the deal is with this guy. And so, a likely unexpected voice call follows:]

Doctor Chilton? My name is Light Yagami. I'd like to speak with you for a moment, if you have the time.

voice; I don't mind at all! I'M EXCITED FOR THIS!

[slightlyoffchilt]

[There is a pause, before Chilton responds -- the name curls familiar fingers in his memory, and he wagers that this individual is imPort, rather than native.

And that's what he prefers, in terms of professional conversations.]

Light, hello. I certainly have a moment to spare -- what might I do for you?

[The smile on his lips was careful, lest it be heard too clearly in his voice.]

voice

[larker]

Hey Doc. I have a question for you. If someone says to not do something because it could possibly kill you, and you still feel like doing it, is that a big problem or something that can be handwaved?

voice

[slightlyoffchilt]

Ah.

[He recognizes that voice.]

The gravity of lethal situations isn't one to be undermined -- however, I think the concern would rest in this hypothetical individual's motivation for feeling like doing something that might kill them.

[A beat...]

Shall we flesh out the context?

[inmyothertights]

Mr. Chil-

I mean Dr. Chilton? This is Billy Kaplan.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Billy Kaplan. [He pauses, choosing his words carefully:] I can't say I expected to hear from you, perhaps not this soon. [Which is to say, he's delighted.] How are you?

PHONE CALL

[This is a Kate, but which Kate is it?]

[voice message]

[heartstings]

Hey, it's Kenzi. I'm kind of doing the host thing at The Red Branch on the sixteenth, Cu's pub up in Maurtia Falls, and I just wanted to let you know in case you wanted to drop in and get a drink. Totes on me, but only for you.

Lemme know, 'kay?

[slightlyoffchilt]

[His return call is fairly immediate.]

That's a kind offer, Kenzi. Consider me attending -- I'll make a note of the date.

[text]

[heartstings]

[The first text doesn't come until halfway through the night. She actually make an attempt to type out things, you should feel special Chilton.]

[Each following text comes roughly thirty minuets to an hour after the last.]

[heartstings]

[reptiledysfunction]

[ring ring ring.

guess who turned into a lizard and wants reassurance, Frederick? :c ]

[slightlyoffchilt]

Hello? This is Doctor Chilton and it is ten at night.

[Caller ID denoted Connors, but Chilton tends to give his patients that moment of agency to introduce themselves -- names can be so important.]

4/27, mid-afternoon ; voicemail

[dragony]

Doctor Chilton? This is... my name is Ruka. We spoke on the Network, a couple weeks ago. I was the one who asked for nightmare remedies. [ Trepidation is the dialed tone, and it's very difficult to keep talking and not simply erase the message before it's left. ]

I understand you are very busy, but I would like to... [ Schedule an appointment? Seek treatment? Talk? ] ... continue our conversation.

If you don't mind, you can call me back at this number. If you'd rather not, though, that's alright.

... I'm sorry for leaving such a long message, but thank you for listening.

[slightlyoffchilt]

[Chilton takes his sweet time responding, because he is a dick.

Because he is very busy.]

Hello, Ruka? I'm listening.

voice mail | 5/12 at a sane hour obviously

[corviform]

[ Probably should have stuck to text. Gil sounds tired and downcast. ]

Ah... good evening, Dr. Chilton. [ A pause. ] This may seem a little of the blue so I apologize. We haven't spoken before, though from what I understand you're a friend of Kenzi's. My name is Gilbert.

... I'm sorry to tell you that she's been ported out. It's been a few days already, so... [ He'll cut himself off from voicing his disappointment. ] I thought you should know.

[ Awkwardly hanging up. ]

return call

[slightlyoffchilt]

-- Gilbert? Hello, Gilbert?

text : backdated to the 05/08

[alofts]

Dr. Chilton? I'm Captain Levi. We haven't been introduced, but an Erwin Smith asked that I speak with you.

[ good thing this was over text messaging so you don't have to hear how dubious he is ]

text

[slightlyoffchilt]

Hello, Captain Levi. I'm pleased that Mr. Smith could give you a referral. How might I be of help?

[inmyothertights]

You're always available for a chat, right?

text;

[slightlyoffchilt]

[Good thing he has his patient contact information already in his phone, right?]

Absolutely, Billy. What's on your mind?

voice (06/03)

[heartlessglitch]

Doctor.
I must insist that we speak.

[slightlyoffchilt]

With regards to the sudden appearance of Charles Xavier, I wonder?

06.10.14.

[infomodder]

I left you a present in your office. Don't be alarmed.

It's a 14 footer and a 5 hour battle. You could stretch it to 8 and be believed by any fisher without a problem.

Enjoy.

[By which he means: I broke into your office and left you a giant-ass fish on your wall. Don't fuck with Skye, I swear to God.]

[slightlyoffchilt]

Will Graham. Why have you inserted your fish into my personal area?

text.

[selfequipped]

[In light of information recently gained from David about Danger, Kate has had to go back to the drawing board on everything with this. She was already hesitating—and with good reason. But she figures she has to re-evaluate things, and in a very big way, she realizes she may have been much too hard on a certain psychiatrist.

While he's hardly someone she'd notate as a "great guy," or anything like that, there's still a great deal of regret there.]

Dr. Chilton, I'd like to speak with you in the near future. I'd prefer in person.

I assure you that it won't be an imbalanced interrogation of any type.

Re: text.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Kate Bishop.

[It's a few hours before his response comes.]

Might I inquire what topics of conversation we'll be engaging, then? Or, at least, where you would like to meet?

voice.

[ex_question191]

Hi, uh. My name's Stiles Stilinski, and I'm shopping around for a psychiatrist, and ... well, you were listed? So.

I don't have any drug problems — so this mightn't even be... whatever. I mean I don't even really... I just want an Aderall prescription. Because I have ADHD, not— yeah. Okay.

[ the most awkward message in the history of ever sorry. ]

voice.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Mr. Stilinski? [He calls back, his voice neutral -- Chilton had considered saying "Stiles Stilinski" for the sheer flow of the name, but though better of it.] I would be happy to accommodate your need -- but I'm sure you know, as you've surely been through this process before, I would have to routinely see you for a prescription to uphold. Given that you likely didn't come here with any documents of prior medical history, I would have to diagnose you, too. Regardless of lack of drug problems.

[Shouldn't be a problem, though, right?]

Are you free this week for a scheduling?

voicemail, 6/20

[paintjobs]

As enjoyable as our sessions have been, Doctor, I'm afraid I'm going to have to end them. Effective immediately.

Take care, now.

[voice]

[bloodfreak]

Hey, Doc. I, uh, I need to talk to you soon. If you have the time.

[voice]

[slightlyoffchilt]

I have the time, Cyril, of course. How are you?

voicemail;

[resoul]

[ there's the briefest moment of hesitation and silence as Tommy debates just hanging up on the answering machine. ]

Is this... it's the shrink, right? I got the right line? My name's Tommy. Tommy Shepherd. I don't need therapy, but I was told to try talking to you.

[ and boy does he sound less than thrilled at the idea. ]

[slightlyoffchilt]

[The callback is quick! Maybe not Tommy-quick, but it's only a few minutes.]

Hello, Tommy Shepherd? This is Doctor Chilton. [A beat.] The shrink. I presume it's safe to anticipate that you're looking for psychiatric aid?

Phone Message, 7/9

[beenwaitinglong]

Dr. Chilton. This is Mr. Godot from the public defender's office.

I have- [Ooh, what a telling pause.] -a client, that I think might benefit from a preliminary consultation with you. There's no trial date set just yet, so there isn't a real hurry. So we'll say it's at your leisure to let me know if or when you're available.

I'll owe you a bag of coffee for the help.

Thanks.

[slightlyoffchilt]

[The return call comes within the hour -- Chilton is, predictably, highly curious.]

Mr. Godot, always a pleasure. I got your message, and I am highly intrigued. I could certainly set a time aside for your, ah, client.

voice (07/12; shortly after hannibal's post)

[heartlessglitch]

Doctor, I am not amused.

voice;

[slightlyoffchilt]

Well, I imagine that you wouldn't be! I haven't even delivered the punchline.

[How's that for deflection.]

voice mail | it's a two for one special

[boobwindow]

[ No ID printed. ]

Hello, Dr. Chilton. My name's Power Girl and when you have a moment to spare, I'd like a word.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Power Girl? [Fancy that. He was just talking about her, not too long ago.] How might I be of service?
