OOG:// This is your office, Dr. Amerson! Both staff members and subjects can find you here if needed.
I knock on the door, before slipping it open. I just wanted to ask Dr Leigha a few questions. "Hello Dr. Leigha." I said politely, giving her a nod. "I had a few questions." I didn't bring my clipboard and as a result, didn't have my questions written down. I struggled to remember something. "I wanted to know what our purpose here is. I know I'm looking at the children and learning about them, but what are we trying to do in the long run?"
Leigha looked up from her desk when she heard a knock at the door, and saw Dr. Angevin enter the room, empty handed. Intrigued, wondering what the visit could be for, she turned her attention to the scientist. "Hello, Dr. Angevin," she said.
Dr. Angevin stated that she had a few questions, and the doctor nodded. Answering inquiries happened to be something she didn't mind, almost enjoyed even. And the scientist's question...it only added to the intrigue. What was the reason behind it? Leigha pondered a moment before answering.
"This institution is dedicated to the study of the origin and properties of the arcane and unexplainable. 'Magic,' as it's refered to in popular media. All those being studied here have some sort of unusal ability, an unexplained power that falls into this category. We seek to find the source and uncover the mysteries surrounding 'magic' through science," the doctor explained.

The study of the origin and properties of the arcane and explainable. Was it just me or was that rather vague? I swallowed, my fist clenched and my nails bit into my palm in anxiety. "I just want to know that you aren't trying to change these people here, or trying to make them normal. I want to know that you will try to help them flourish with information I give you and not smother them until their magic dies. A lot of people are afraid of people with magic."
Doctor Solari knocked on the door to Doctor Amerson’s office with the back of his knuckles to announce his arrival. He opened the door without waiting for any signal from Doctor Amerson.
“Doctor Amerson?” He asked, wedging his foot into the doorway to stop her office door from shutting on him. “Sorry to interrupt, but I’d like you to look over some medical release forms for a test I’ll be running tomorrow,” he said as he held up a few papers.

((Ack, I'm so sorry for the late replies 😅 I didn't notice them, I'm so sorry!))
Leigha turned to Dr. Angevin, realizing by her words how the faculty might be portrayed. "The goal of this institute isn't to harm or change or smother those in out care in any way. We don't want to change them with the results, we aim only to gain an understanding. The existence of magic is a discovery, one that might even be put in textbooks one day. It will keep everyone safer, those with powers and those without. We are taking the first steps to adapt to a society with magic and mundane coexisting," she explained. "And introducing this to society, changing it...it's a delicate thing. Understanding must come first."
A knock sounded at the door, filling the brief silence that came after Leigha had finished speaking. The door swung open, revealing Dr. Solari. "Hello, doctor," she said, caught a bit off-guard. "Medical release forms...yes, I can take care of those. However, it would be best if I came to see you tommorrow, before testing but closer to the actual time. That way, I can see the materials and ask a few questions about the testing taking place."
((OOC:// Because the meeting about medical forms and approval and such is taking place in another forum, I figured I'd keep the storyline consistent, hence why the medical stuff isn't taken care of here
Just in case there was any questions as to her response))
