seis: asserting reality.

[iam_aghost]

For whatever records may be kept, I was not affected by that flood. I am no Falangista. I apologise to each and every one of you for if I spoke to you rudely, harshly or of strict military discipline. I, unfortunately, had to keep up an act in order to remain a functional doctor on that ship, and providing help in that manner was more important

[Wanda sounds slurry and faint...and very very weepy.]

Um...Doctor...? I'm sorry to bother you but I think I need some help.

[iam_aghost]

Don't apologise. Where are you, and is it you, or someone else that needs help?

[scarlet_discord]

Tran...transfusion. I need a transfusion. And maybe stitches.

I tried to walk there and ended up in the laundry room. I can walk but I'm so light headed...

[iam_aghost]

Okay, stay where you are, I'm coming to get you. Don't try and move, I won't be long.

Are you bleeding at all still?

Private - Eddie will be withdrawing from NZT for a day or two, so Caesares can see the real Eddie.

Thanks for your help, Doctor. I'm sorry I was such a pain in the ass.

Re: Private - ooooh.

[iam_aghost]

No need to apologise. Drugs will have that effect, I'm afraid.

Do you really write, can I ask, or was that the other man?

Private - Oh, it comes with lots of pain and sweats and-- I'ma just IM you.

[acertifieduser]

Sometimes.

I used to.

Re: Private - shiny.

[iam_aghost]

But you don't any more?

I'd like to help, but I'm not sure that I'd....

It might not be appropriate, given the circumstances.

[Private]

'salright. Limp's gone again. It's fine.

Re: Infirmary Filter

[iam_aghost]

If you want to and feel able to, you should.

Because we know that's not how you act. If you want to avoid the people you ran into during the flood, we can work around that, but if you'd like to help and you're well enough, do so.

[Private]

Absolutely sure?

Re: Infirmary Filter

[drdaytimetelly]

...I made a bit of a mess. I should help to clean it up, if there aren't any objections.

[Private]

No, but I can't expect you to act like my therapist. I'll be all right.

Re: Infirmary Filter

[iam_aghost]

I don't object. That's the right attitude to take in my book.

[Private]

I was not offering to. Merely making sure one way or another.

[expectremorse]

Safe to go to the infirmary?

[Hoffman looks a little tender. A couple of rather large bruises to the left side of his face

Re: [Video.]

[iam_aghost]

Perfectly safe. Unless you want one of us to come to you?

Re: [Video.]

[expectremorse]

No.

[cough] I'll come to you. Just tenderized.

Re: [Video.]

[iam_aghost]

Alright. Does someone know what happened?

Private

[mrs_persson]

Yes. But luckily, all was set to rights before things went really south. How are you?

Re: Private

[iam_aghost]

Ah, at least you had that fortune.

I'm all right. It could have been a lot worse. [understatement of the century]

Re: Private

[mrs_persson]

Last time this happened, I think a solid third of the populace was in the infirmary for one thing or another, so yes, it could have been significantly worse.

Re: Private

[iam_aghost]

Good Lord.

It's still unfortunate that anyone was hurt at all. I'm starting to get the impression that's a little too much to ask around here.
