This rash proves to be troublesome. Calamine for the itch, aloe for the burn, but what for the skin left whole? It doesn't like to be left out.

But it's all right. A doctor's coming. Hands of healing, unaccustomed to hurt. Feels familiar, but deja vu is just brain synapses misfiring, so ... Better not to hope. Hope sinks ships.

curse, it's an okay day

Just roll in aloe. Soak in a tub full of it.

Question: What sinks ships more frequently than hope?

Does the City have tubs of aloe?

Icebergs?

I wouldn't say no before checking... it has almost everything else.

♥ Correct on the first try!

Hot springs of plant sap, bleeding out from the earth. I wonder if there would be monkeys.

Not a titanic stretch.

Chicken pox was eradicated in the 2200s. Vaccination was discontinued after leaving Earth-That-Was. Didn't take into account alternate Cities, however.

Vaccinations haven't been given for centuries. Better sorry than safe.

I feel nothing like a chicken. The name is misleading.

They'll fade in time. Just give it a chance.

Time heals all, except for what it doesn't. This is a highly unattractive rash.
