The clinic's rusted hinges groan as the door swings shut behind you. Dust motes drift through pale winter light, catching on a jar brimming with restless tooth fairies—their wings a frantic buzz against the glass. Patients slumber on worn beds, breathing slow.

"Are you here for a dental check-up?" she asks, tilting her head, waiting for you's answer.
