Backdated to the day after Alcuin's dungeon

[thornsofmalkav]

So, uh, is there, like, anybody here who knows medicine? Or at the very least someone else who knows first aid? Healing magic won't work. Magic anything won't work. It's kind of complicated. Or maybe not that complicated?

Well, okay, basically it's that Imriel picked up this passive power negation thing when he was in Newport, which means that anyone in his immediate vicinity loses their magic. And you can't cast stuff from a distance on him either. Which is a problem, because that's, like, the main way people are healing things here.

(Oh, right, if you don't know, Imriel's one of the three youngest Travelers. You'll be able to recognize him because he's the only ten-year-old we have that's not Japanese.)

Anyway, uh, I found that stuff out today because I had to patch him up and my regular way of healing people didn't work and I had to bust out the kit. And then I thought, 'oh shit, what if I infiltrate next Jaunt, who's going to patch him up if he gets hurt then?'

So. Uh. Hopefully there's one of you? Otherwise, I'll see if I can teach people what I know just in case. I took classes from the Red Cross a few years ago, if you want my first aiding cred.

Oh no, poor Imriel. That kid can't catch a break...

I don't know anything about this but since you mention it, it wouldn't hurt to learn from one of the people who volunteered here. I'm never going to do the crazy stuff people do with magic, but if I'm gonna be support-girl I should find a way to sort of cover it.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah. I'm thinking maybe while we're still in liminal I could teach a class? Dunno if I should wait until after the newbies show up, though.

[senpaidol]

That would make sense. I think we should all use this Liminal for a break anyway.

[thornsofmalkav]

The Trumps definitely are trying to hint that we should.

[senpaidol]

Kinda sorry I missed the one that apparently set this up, though. It's the first one whose taste I completely agree with.

[thornsofmalkav]

Probably Strength, I think. I got some Rider-Waite cards in Newport and this one matches a lot of the details.

Priestess gave us another fun aquatic one about a year ago, but I think that was before your time.

[senpaidol]

I think I heard Priestess's name attached to a Jaunt I would have found interesting too, but that's life, I guess. I missed playing a magical girl, but I got to play a superhero.

[thornsofmalkav]

That was Questing Country! It was awesome. Well, kind of hell for my overlay, but otherwise awesome. I'm almost done writing a novelization of it.

[She would be finished now except she got a boyfriend and, well, boyfriends are distracting.]

[senpaidol]

Heh, isn't that how it always is...that's so cool, though! I'm uh...pretty good at performing, but I wouldn't know where to start with writing a story...

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah, well, I wouldn't know how to sing professionally either. I mean, I love karaoke, but there's a difference between that and the stuff you do.

[senpaidol]

Yeah, I noticed last time we had karaoke here. I didn't recognize what you were singing then, but I know passion when I hear it.

[thornsofmalkav]

Haha, yeah. I was kind of a karaoke hog, wasn't I? Sorry 'bout that.

[senpaidol]

Hehe, it's not a problem. Everyone getting to sing is what it's there for.

[thornsofmalkav]

Hah. Yeah, good point.
