Oooh, so many words, so many people! I'm glad I decided to be a bit more chaotic with how I approach this place or else I would probably just stop by Sunday and miss all the fun. Truthfully, I never expected people would promptly return here so fast after New Year and everything but here we are.
Let's start then, I had to plans to adress Yumetou first but since ally is here then K-mon will have priority due to Ally reasons.
Hehehe, don't make me blush! This was just me being goofy and trying to lighten the mood since everyone seemed so tired back then. I'm glad it worked, in fact, it worked so well that we had the most visitors here since a month ago I believe. Should I start posting more memes?
Oh? Still adressing me are you? Did you really think I hadn't considered that my ally? Please, I did consider that! But then what about you? Let me show you my thoughts then.
Think about it. In a medicine stall, we have both the people responsible for it (those who sells medicine) and people who wants to use their services (those who buy medicine). In another words, as Master Gri sucessfully deduced, there is no set character for any of these choices but instead we have a pool from where Yume will decide from.
With that in mind, the chances of meeting the Eientei crew would be 50% and the chances of meeting a patient represent the other 50%. Said patients would most likely be humans who get sick in the first place, my mind immediately thinks of Akyuu, considering she is physically the weakest human in the series due to being a child of Miare but Yume also mentioned a "kitsune boy" which means the chances of getting a forgotten side character is also very high.
On the other hand, the temple options offer us a wide array of youkais and humans who frequents the temple, either the ones affiliated to it or believers who are nonetheless also affiliated to it. So, the chances of getting Oscar acquainted to Myouren Temple SHOULD be 100% unless Yume decides to pull a fast one on us.
I think you have made the connections by now, My dear ally but if you hadn't then let me clarify it to you. Yes, I am being unpredictable because I'm making a gamble with myself! Think of a gacha, I can either get the legendary 6 stars Reisen Udongein Inaba or the common 3 stars Heida no Akyuu and if my luck is that bad then I get the off-meta unit "side-character". The end goal I have decided for this choice is getting Oscar into Eientei or at least get him to know about it and that would probably only be accomplished if I'm lucky enough to have the medicine stall to be picked and then be lucky enough to have someone from Eientei to save Ozzy. The optimal and safe choice is the temple since the Buddhists would probably offer shelter at any moment (they surely want more followers after all).
On a side note, Akyuu is really a common character, she has a reasonable chance to appear in the library, in her own temple, in the medicine stall and I even read somewhere once that she might be a Buddhist.
Bruh, why you never told me you worked at Eientei? Do you have any idea what I would do the get a job there? Give me my worries back!
Jokes aside, I understand your situation now lol, actually, I think you even told us about your job before, I guess I was just being stupid and forgot about it. I can surely tell you are doing what you love because hospitals can make a person understand if they are cut for their job really quick, I can tell you this because my mum had a dream of being a nurse but wasn't able to realize it due to becoming a housewife instead after I got my first job, I helped fund her studies so she could finally work on her dream job... Guess what? She didn't last a year in a hospital, nowadays she takes care of an old lady who suffers from dementia. I don't regret helping fund her studies though, I can rub in her face that I paid back the effort she made to secure my own studies.
Take your time sorting things out, as you can see, we will probably be here to welcome you back whenever you feel like it. Just don't take too long
Lastly, before I go, I decided to make a little sketch to help understand Ozzy's current predicament.
