ophiocordycepsScience isn't an easy matter. It's made marginally more difficult by the lack of proper equipment, and let's not get her started on the townsfolk, because once Caroline gets started on the townsfolk, she isn't going to stop anytime soon.
When someone knocks at her door in broad daylight, her mood defaults to somewhere between immensely pissed off and increasingly less likely to keep her mouth shut. Nighttime is different, mostly because that is when mothers of dying children or injured men or sick old ladies realized that maybe, maybe the loner, the "witch", the weirdo who does Things with Plants and Stuff might actually be helpful.
Daytime knocking either meant an extreme emergency, the kind that could have been prevented if leeching hadn't been attempted in the first place, or some kind of inquiry regarding her various strange activities. Mysterious stuff like reading, and writing, and other things that are probably the devil's work.
She opens the door, and does her best to keep her features in check.
