Possessive Chihiro

In their Brugge home, Frost Flower repeatedly sighed as he read the material from the medical board. Those remaining doctors and scientists disagreed to force the tests on living humans.

The email mentioned that they 'are opposed to the practice that is violating their code of conduct as medical professionals, including but not limited to enforcing the medical experiments of unfit medicines on living humans'.

"Look at these back-and-forth conversations, Chihiro!" he told his beloved who was busy checking the codes for the last simulation feedback.

"Hm?" Chihiro only replied that way.

"The medical board is already at odds with the Council, and yet the Council still insist on them carrying out the experiments."

"Oh, okay," Chihiro said in between the clicking noise of his fingers across the keyboard. His eyes were fixated on the flooding figures on the screen, his lips were slightly ajar at the deep concentration.
