When: Evening of the mingle log and onwardish.
Where: The Ruins
Warnings: Um...same as the mingle log?



The beach curves up a gentle slope until it meets forest, some manner of building visible through the trees. Further exploration of this area will reveal a dilapidated building of sorts; the architecture is indiscernible to even the most skilled eye. Despite looking as if it has seen better days, there are areas that offer some form of shelter...and who knows what else. Just because it appears uninhabited doesn’t mean you won’t wind up pleasantly, or unpleasantly, surprised.


[ooc: Hey y'all! I thought this might be a good place to start getting larger groups of characters together to do some exploring, settling down, banding together and figuring out rations, etc. Feel free to throw up any threads of your own for specific things like exploration groups, a gathering in the entrance hall, whatever strikes your fancy or that you think your character would organize. Have a party!

Edit: Additionally, there is now an OOC Post for those that want to handwave their character signing up for ruin exploration]

[Now, Sieglinde isn't injured, but she is a doctor. Sort of. She can do medical things.

So, from her seat on the ground she waves to get the man's attention.]

Hey! Old man! Over here!

[Little kids, no matter how smart, don't think too much about how their actions might look or sound.]

[lionson]

[Well hello there, small child with frightening spider legs.

Shiro will go over to her and see what's going on.]

Yeah? Are you hurt?

[boundwitch]

No. [There are a few scuffs and scrapes, knees scraped up where her stockings tore through. But nothing really serious for now (obviously there is a risk of infection but that isn't currently at the forefront of her mind).]

I have a significant amount of medical experience, and additionally I received a first aid kit in my backpack when I arrived. It seems prudent to pool our resources and compare experience.

[lionson]

[That's...quite a lot for a little girl, but Shiro was also little when he learned this stuff so.]

I agree. What do you have experience in?

[boundwitch]

Everything. [Well, okay not everything but she's eleven cut her some slack.]

In the past, I have focused specifically on poisons and antidotes, but I also have experience with illness as well as healing lacerations and other injuries. [General medical exams too, but that should be obvious.]

[lionson]

Well it's good that you specified, I was going to ask you about your cancer-treating abilities.

[That's a joke right there. He's joking.]

[boundwitch]

Excision of the cancerous growth. [Sorry, you didn't want to know what she'd do for cancer?]

What would you do? [Her clothing isn't for fun, she's actually Victorian, and about fifteen years to early for the discovery of x-rays and the radiation treatments that arose from that.]

[lionson]

[He'll stare for a moment, and ultimately he decides that this girl just has no sense of humor. He'll have to be a bit more blatant with the doctor jokes around her.]

Send 'em to a specialist. There's doctors who train specifically in that kinda thing, I'm not gonna risk it if there's better options.

[boundwitch]

Where I am from there are no specialists. [A stunted sense of humor, no experience with doctor jokes, something getting lost in translation, being too focused on making a point to pick up on jokes, take your pick.]

It also appears that there are no specialists here. You should take care to review your knowledge on all forms of medicine.

[lionson]

[And now he's being scolded by her. This is not how he thought this conversation would go.]

Right, sure. If anyone's got any long-term, debilitating diseases, I'll try my best to help them.

[boundwitch]

[Everyone gets scolded by a spoiled eleven year old eventually. It's just how life works.]

Good. I will also require your assistance in setting up a proper laboratory.

[Old man, you've been drafted.]
