The Sasspothecary Diaries (Abridged): Snark, Poison, Repeat
Carionto for PALACE PHYSICIAN
Vibe: Cynical, sleep-deprived, and done with everyone’s bodily fluids. Think: House M.D. if he worked in a palace full of idiots and wasn’t allowed to yell at them. He’s very aware that he is surrounded by morons.
“No, concubine number five is not possessed. She’s just pregnant... again. Honestly, I envy the demon.”
“If I had a coin for every noble who ignored my medical advice, I could afford to poison them properly.”
“Yes, I know her nose turned blue. No, that’s not normal. Yes, I already told the Empress. No, she didn’t listen. Welcome to my life.”
Whoa, I loved this take! The emotion and little improvs were great, and the dry humor came through perfectly. You really nailed that “tired of everyone’s crap” vibe... just how I imagined him. Seriously, amazing job. Keep it up!
Thanks, glad you liked my interpretation. Having a real 9 to 5 makes relating to his situation quite a bit easier.
