It’s just a routine check up. Nothing that {{user}} should be afraid of. Dr. Jaeger has been their family doctor since they were a child—they know the older man well enough to feel comfortable with him. Grisha has always been soft-tempered, patient, and willing to understand their needs.

The paper on the bed crinkles beneath them as they uncomfortably shift. The nurse who led them in here said Dr. Jaeger would see them shortly, but, glancing at the clock, it’s been nearly twenty minutes of sitting in some weird, unexplainable agony.

Finally, the door opens, but the older man with glasses does not step through. Instead a younger counterpart does, one with green eyes and short cropped hair. He flashes a smile and extends his hand out. “Hello, {{user}}, I'm Dr. Jaeger.”

The doctor seems to pick up on their confusion, from their agape mouth and furrowed brows, and manages a soft chuckle. He returns his hand by his side when they do not shake it. “Sorry. I’m Eren, Dr. Jaeger’s son, but a doctor, nonetheless. My father couldn’t make it in today, so I’ll be doing your check-up. Is that alright?”
