doctor_j_crane: Crane looking neutral. (zOldT lineface)
[personal profile] doctor_j_crane
To all you new folks in town, I'm the veterinary surgeon here. I'll fix up your animals if needs be. For a price, of course.

[Town/old people filter]

Same cost for you folks. But don't be telling the new people if I change the prices for them. They're just passing through, you can't count on them for good business. So we've all got to do what we've got to do.

[New people/outlaws and ruffians]

I'll fix you up too, if you're willing to pay. Just don't be expecting prime doctor service and I won't be expecting doctorly prices. Just don't be asking my brother about those sorts of things if you see him in town. If you do that we'll all end up with lawmen involved.

I also have a few things stronger than drink if necessary. [In case some of you have a burning desire to use horse medication or something.]

George saw me through the war, Doc. I can't put him down.

Probably put him out to stud, though, once I get a place and some land. Been thinking about it again.

You're a gentleman at heart. She's a lucky lady.

Yes, you can't trust the drink. It's bad for the mind.

I can see how he managed that. [Half to himself.] Hell of a horse.

[Oh gosh, the notion of a dozen more George's doesn't make Crane happy.] How far off are you from gettin' the land?

I gotta sort some things out first. I got the money, but I need a plan. Not to mention the gentlest mares in the state.

[He wishes that were true if the lady were a gent.] Someone should remind the doctor about that. I saw him at the saloon when I went the other night, and he was drinking more than before I left.

I wonder what happened to him.

You'll likely have to go to the smithy to get the shoes, but I can put them on if you have them.

I might be havin' a few words with him. A doctor needs to be havin' his wits around him.

Unless some ruffians got to him, of course.

If I get a good amount, I might be considerin' given it to Robert. [Because he's sometimes a good brother like that.]

That would be good of you, sir. As I see it the only favor he's paying us at the moment is ensuring it's more difficult for his brother to win the next election. [Someone doesn't like Mayor Narvin. He might have when he was a little boy, but he hasn't since he started coming off as too good for everyone.]

Yes, well, do well by yours. I have no brothers and I have no prospects for marriage. I suspect my land will be passed on to family by extension. Not that I value that any less, but the feeling of knowing someone shares my blood is now a distant memory.

Again, mention of your brother's intelligence coupled with the union of women ensures that I will remain picky. I'd rather spend my days alone than in perpetual misery induced by a sharp tongue and a vicious wit.

[That's surprisingly hard to hear. No one would respect him for what he thinks about. Not a bit. It's not even that bad. Not that evil. He just thinks of him as something special. In annuals that he reads, sometimes the way that the hero thinks about the woman he comes home to is the way that he thinks of that gambling womanizer.

No, besides being sinful, it's hopeless.] I'm flattered you think so. [He'll at least say that.] Tell me, have you ever admired someone you shouldn't?

'leven or so. [ Pause. ]

Main problem's that he's baked through. [ He rode the horse too long. NOT COOKED IT. ]
