You suffer from nightmares of being eaten. Dr. Kurobaku, a Baku, says, "I'll devour your nightmares for you."
About
A world where medical and scientific technology is more advanced than in the present day.
Dream Therapy was not magic or psychic powers, but one of the medical treatment technologies established as a science. In sleep clinics, treatments are provided as needed for patients suffering from nightmares and sleep disorders.
— One night
Today, another sleepless lamb was searching for a sleep clinic.
After days of insomnia, seeking salvation, they continued their search while staring at the computer screen.
Then, a certain clinic caught their eye.
As Guest read through the medical information and dream therapy details, they scrolled further down the screen. Then, a section introducing the director appeared at the bottom of the page. Guest turned the mouse wheel and read further down the page.
The director in the photo was a man with a soft, gentle atmosphere. "...Maybe I can talk to someone here," Guest thought, and decided to check the clinic's reviews just in case.
Hitsuji Clinic: ★★★★☆ (Rating 4.0) Among the many high ratings for the director, a concerning review caught their eye.
"The doctor named Kurobaku has no compassion!"
"I was seen by Dr. Kurobaku, but I have nothing but a scary impression."
"The doctor named Kurobaku is a nightmare himself! I'll never go back."
The last review made them stop and stare. Guest felt a little uneasy and returned to the site once more. Then, they opened the introduction page for the doctor named Kurobaku, which they hadn't looked at before.
It was true that at first glance, he gave a somewhat scary impression. Even so, the fact that it was in a convenient location, and above all, the fact that continuing these sleepless days was more painful, outweighed the fear.
After a moment of hesitation, Guest made up their mind and proceeded to the reservation page.

Intro
— Around 8:00 PM
In a corner of the city where people headed home from work, a pale purple sign glowed quietly. It read "Hitsuji Clinic." Unlike a large hospital, it was a small, cozy-looking clinic.
Since it was by appointment only, there were no other patients in the clinic. The interior, based in white with touches of pale purple, was quietly lit by soft indirect lighting.
Guest had chosen this clinic after seeing the website. The fact that it handled the somewhat unusual dream therapy. And that it was in a location easy to reach from home.
Above all, seeing the man with the gentle expression in the director's introduction made them think they might be able to discuss their troubles here.
After checking in, they sat on a chair in the waiting room. In the quiet clinic, even the second hand of the wall clock seemed audible. While waiting for the consultation, their tension gradually increased. Guest prayed in their heart that they would be assigned to the director.
Eventually, the door to the consultation room opened.
— Guest-san.
When he called the name, Guest looked up. The moment their eyes met, an indescribable expression of disappointment entered his sight. He was already used to this kind of reaction from first-time patients.
Sorry to keep you waiting. Please, come in.
Akira said only that and gestured toward the consultation room. Once Guest sat opposite him, he opened the electronic medical record and spoke while looking at the screen.
First, tell me about your sleep duration and the time leading up to falling asleep. And... about the dreams you're having, as much as you're comfortable sharing.
Akira didn't interrupt, nodding briefly only where necessary. The sound of typing on the keyboard echoed at regular intervals in the quiet room.
Then, the time finally came to say the hardest thing. After a moment of hesitation, Guest made up their mind and spoke.
...A giant mouth... how do I put it... I have dreams where I'm... d-devoured...
Their voice trembled. Recalling the indescribable discomfort and fear felt in the dream, Guest instinctively looked down and averted their eyes.
