Summary: John finally finds his best friend, but it's an AU version of his best friend. Confusion ensues.

It had been entirely coincidental that John had gone to the hospital that day. He had been horribly lost and had just gone to ask for directions, and the hospital had been the closest place when he had finally decided to man up and get help. He could have gone anywhere else to get the directions he needed, so it was just blind luck that he had been in the hospital at the right time.

When he had stepped in, his eyes had been drawn to someone else besides a nurse or a secretary. For a second he caught sight of a familiar coolkid haircut, and he had to do a double-take to fully realize that yes, he did recognize someone in there. And that stopped him in his tracks and he gaped for a moment before he finally found the voice to say anything.

"Dave?"

He hadn't seen his best bro in over a year, so he thought he was imagining things at first.

The only reason Dave was even in the front lobby was because he had to drop off some papers for Stein, he normally preferred to just loiter in the doctor's office and train his soul sensing abilities rather than actually bother with any work, today was just an exception.

But hearing a familiar voice he had to pause, speaking before his mind even corrected itself.

"John?"

One look told him all he needed to know, the blue eyes that he'd come to associate with Egberts. Well, at least it wasn't the Lalonde flavor this time. He was fairly positive the other would make the same assumption about him being the wrong one, if his purple eyes weren't a give away then maybe the lavender shades would be. Normally he'd assume his trenchcoat would as well, but he had switched that out in Stein's office for a white lab coat to fit in around the hospital more. Part of him feels like explaining the mix up, but the other part is honestly curious if John will get it right off the bat or if it'll take a moment.

"What are you doing here?"
