How long had it been since they landed here, now? Rowan counted... five weeks, that he'd been awake. That was five weeks of primarily torture and pain that he genuinely could not scrub from his memory no matter what he tried, five weeks without his coping mechanisms being available, five weeks of legitimate fear and anger unlike any he'd experienced in his life thus far. To say the experience was traumatic would be a vast understatement, even as he found himself back home with the rest of his people. All of the events since landing on this planet weighed heavily on the boy's mind. Still, home meant he could see someone he was close to, again - as well as have his first candy in well over a month.
Rowan would find Holly's office and knock on the door before making his way inside. "Doc, need my fix," he'd say aloud, smiling as he entered. Having not seen Holly in a while left him nervous, but he was hopeful things could return to normal in at least one way.

Unlike most, Holly Vos' experience on Andyr was quite contrary to what most would believe. Having been separated from literally everything she was familiar with, she was quick to stand her ground. By attacking the natives? No. By threatening to attack the natives? Maybe. By attacking the natives with flirting and dopiness? Absolutely. Needless to say, the natives of Andyr were probably more scared of her than she was of them, and ironically, that sweet little perverted bucket of sugar was nothing short of a pacifist.
That being said, it felt weird being reunited with her proper colleagues, so the playful nurse practically locked herself in her office (palace to her), and began working on new candies with new effects that she hoped would appeal to the aliens.
That's why when she heard a sliding noise on top of a knock, she jumped up in surprise, hitting her head on the lamp she was crouched under. "Ow!" She yelped, throwing her hands on her hips while she frowned and shook her head. "Rowan! Just the person I wanted to see. You know what to do!" She jumped to his side, clinging to his arm with her own, pointing to the evil lamp with the other while dropping to a knee.

There was no way of ever really properly preparing for Holly, even for someone who knew her well. As she latched onto his arm and fell to a knee, all while pointing at her lamp, he simply stared in confusion. Yes, he saw her hit it when she stood up, but he had no idea what to do. "Uhh..." the sound left his parted lips as he scratched his head, staring. Did she want him to blow it up? That'd probably be counterproductive, in the long term, wouldn't it? So he just put his fists up, playing along as though he was protecting her from it.
"Don't worry, I'll fight that damn lamp," he said with a laugh, then pat her head lightly. "But yo, doc, I really need some candy."

A second request for candy sent a shiver down Holly's spine. Of course, how could she forget to throw candy at Rowan when he entered! Hopping back to her feet, she giggled, pretending to fall toward her desk before twirling around and snatching a bag from her chair.
"Let's see..." She rubbed her chin as she dug through the bag. Would she give him something special or just an ordinary piece of candy? As the thought crossed her mind, she smirked, remembering no one had tried her latest creation yet.
"Soooooo... want a gumball?" She slid back over to his side, holding a well rounded, purple ball in front of him. "It's not good for you, but what fun things are?" She whispered into his ear, circling him a time or two before plopping it into his mouth. Should he refuse, she would simply frown.

In some weird way, for one odd reason or another, Rowan missed this. The woman looked as though she stumbled and he didn't rush to her aid just because he knew she hadn't. He simply crossed his arms and waited, head tilted to the side, as she proceeded with her theatrics. Part of it was sweet, the rest... well, he wouldn't get into that. Not yet, anyway.
"Sure, I'll take the gumball!" he said with a grin, seemingly ignoring her warnings. The whisper in his ear sent a shiver down his spine, but he willingly opened his mouth and let her plop it in. Eagerly, he awaited what weird effect this one would have on him, but not quite so scared as he was excited for the sugar.

"Sooo, this one's a surprise." She started, "In about... thirty seconds you're going to get TINGLES." She threw her hands in his face for emphasis, "And then you're going to EXPLODE." Jumping on her tip toes, she waved her arms around, then turned back to Rowan with a serious expression. "And then, when you think it's over, you multiply into mini Rowans, all for my entertainment!" She laughed maniacally for a second, then returned to her normal posture.
"And if you think that's fun, wait until you see the other stuff I brewed up..." She continued digging in her bag once more, waiting for the effects of the gum to take place.

Sugar's Special Treat (Purple): This gumball's sweet taste may rot your teeth, as Holly always says. Upon chewing this gum, your mouth will practically turn into a gum cannon. You may spit as much gum as you can hinder for a single post.

"I, uh - you - what?!" Rowan jumped, shoulders tensing as he stared wide-eyed at Holly. There was no way she was serious, right? A bunch of mini Rowans all wreaking havoc on the place? No, no -way not even Holly's weird gift could work like that. He swallowed the knot forming in his throat and quickly sighed thereafter, then chewed and swallowed the candy. The taste was delicious, sweet enough to make up for everything he'd been lacking! What came next, however, that was what got him.
Suddenly, Rowan lurched forward and his lips formed an "o" shape. Gum began to fire out everywhere like his mouth was a cannon, and the hard candies would ricochet off the floor, the walls, and even the ceiling. In his confusion, Rowan stumbled backward, pushing into Holly and falling to the ground.

A smiled curved it's way onto Holly's face as Rowan's sudden panic kicked in. One of Holly's favorite things to do was give her visitors a little scare by spurting out random fake effects for her candy - especially with Rowan, since most people were too scared to try untested medicine. To make matters worse, it was hard to tell when she was actually being serious.
She watched in glory as gum scattered all throughout her office, eyes beaming at the bubble palace it was becoming. Seeing her creations work as they should always put a big smile on her face, but her celebration would be interrupted as Rowan stumbled into her, prompting her to fall on top of him.
As the gum stopped coming, she would roll over next to him, grinning like a child on Christmas. "So, what'd ya think?"

Rowan's heart was beating fast and his chest rose and fell swiftly, eyes wide the entire time. Half of him was astonished due to the expectation she'd initially given him - the rest of him was both relieved she was lying, and incredibly in awe of what had just happened. Panting, he looked over at her, and, for a moment, was completely silent. Then, slowly, he began to grin, and then chuckle, his eyes looking less surprised and more... fun.
"Sugar!" he exclaimed, rolling over slightly so he could pat her on the shoulder. "Gimme another one! Any kind! That was awesome!"

"Any kind, you say?" Holly's infamous smirk returned to her face as she hopped to her feet in sporadic motion, digging through her bag. After a moment of searching she'd finally pull out a small baggie of what appeared to be grape Skittles. She would drop the bag into Rowan's hand before pulling him up to his feet.
"If you're a real man, you'll down this bag without thinking about the consequences..." She started, "In fact! I'm not even gonna tell you what's gonna happen." A finger pulled on her lip as she eyed a particular outfit sticking out of the closet.
Returning her gaze to him, she babbled on, dropping a duplicate bag in his other hand.
"Down them both, and I'll grant your every wish for a day..." Her hypnotic eyes stared into his as she backed into a cracked door, yanking an actual nurse cosplay from it's hanger.
There was nothing wrong with the candy. But Rowan was gullible.

"Yeah, any kind!" he grinned, craving that sugar. While she searched, he propped himself up onto his elbows, then caught the bag as it was dropped to him. Opening it up, he began to reach for a few, but stopped as she started talking. A brow was cocked, and his head tilted to the side. Real man? what was she getting at.
The second bag was caught, but before he dug in he just watched her for a moment. The moment she set her wager, he was more than willing, but then he saw the outfit - and, well, if there were any questions in his mind... they were there no longer.
"You GOT it!" Rowan said a bit too enthusiastically. Both bags were opened, and without even thinking, he allowed every last piece of candy to fall onto his tongue. It was chewy, grape-y, skittles maybe? There was no mistaking it, those were skittles. They had to be, even if she made them herself she'd just made skittles!
With a mouth full of candy, still, Rowan sat up and pointed at what Holly held in her hand, shouting, "Put that on!"
Today would be a strange day.

Grinning deviously, Holly watched as Rowan downed the bags of candy without another thought. She half expected him to wimp out, but of course, this was a waver that would win any young boy over. As the last of the candy went out of sight, she shrugged, holding the outfit up. "I guess it can't be helped," She teased as she began to pull the accessories off of her arms.
"Now be a good boy and turn around - NO PEEKING." She demanded, crossing her arms with the same sly grin. The tone of her voice really didn't match the look on her face, but as soon as Rowan turned his back to her she would proceed to change, prancing around the room until she had completely changed outfits.
The outfit was just like one you'd find in your typical anime, only it wasn't as revealing as much as it was... tight.
She would creep up behind Rowan and whisper a single word in his ear.
"Per-vert."

It was a strange excitement that Rowan felt as Holly began to remove her accessories. Though, when she told him not to look, he frowned, groaning and lowering his head in disappointment. "Ahhh come on!" He groaned, half tempted to tell her to let him watch. Still, though, he shifted, turning on his ass so he was facing away from her. He'd casually turn his head in an attempt to sneak a peek, but always quickly shot his eyes forward. No desire to incur the wrath of Holly was there.
Rowan was turning his head to sneak another peek when he heard the word in his ear, shivering a bit as he jumped, startled. "N-no! I am not!" He exclaimed, backing up a bit and pointing indignantly. Once he saw her, though, a knot formed in his throat that he'd have difficulty speaking through. One of the problems with being a young, hormonal boy was that he had no idea of how to handle being in close proximity to someone so attractive, let alone in clothes like THAT.
"I just - you just - it's - you said!"
Great coherent sentence, Rowan.

A giggle would escape Holly's lips as Rowan struggled to form words. He had never failed to amuse her, especially when she was intentionally pushing on his hormones. There was so much more she could stipulate for her entertainment, so why not keep pushing?
"Let's go, pervert!" She tugged on his collar, pulling him to the door. It was hard to tell whether she was trying to embarrass him or herself at this point. "Everyone's gotta see!" She exclaimed, throwing the door open forcefully, poking her head out to see if anyone was around.
"Darn," She frowned, swiveling her head around only to see an empty hall. "Oh well, let's go find some trouble!" She continued to pull on Rowan, not giving him a choice in the matter.

Rowan couldn't resist, nor did he really want to at this point. As Holly tugged on his wrist, he followed along, even if he kind of fought it just a bit. "I'm not a pervert!" He'd say, regaining a bit of his composure as they headed toward the door. His heart was beating super fast, and the possibility of happening upon someone seemed very real, but he hoped endlessly that they'd get lucky.
An audible sigh of relief escaped Rowan as they found no one outside. "Looks like you'll have to grant my wishes privately inst-" he started, only to be interrupted my more pulling. Dear God, Holly wanted desperately to find someone it seemed. The further they went down the hall, the more likely they were to run into someone - anyone at all!
"If someone sees us you can't just say I'm a pervert! Be honest!" He said like it was an order, but the poor boy was just desperate. That said, he didn't mind being seen with Holly, especially like this.
