starvation, now?
just another month in the hotel.
the generous my ass.

food aside, we're working on preparing one room to serve as some sort of dispensary, infirmary room, whatever.
so far medical supplies are short.
clarke might not ask it, seeing how i've got her nailing up shelves for i don't even know what (she wanted shelves), but i will.
pitch in. i know there's doctors to spare in this place, the question is - why haven't you guys formed a united front already?

( babe no )

Raven, that's rude.

we've been here three months and i haven't heard a concise and coherent plan to team up and help the wounded
that's rude

[skaikru]

So not everyone is being proactive. We've got a plan, we've got a room. There's no reason to piss off people that still might help us later.

[pajarita]

well they can be as non active as they want, but imagine they have medical supplies lying around
this isn't some sort of internship where they compete for top surgeon spot

[skaikru]

Then just ask them to share. More flies with honey, Raven.

( honey sounds so good right now )

[villainously]

why are you so sure there's more than one doctor round here?
if they existed I do think they'd have said something, especially when the eggs were going off.

[pajarita]

because i've seen them around
there have been people on the network claiming to be knowledgeable with medicine

hell, there's one guy who goes by the name THE doctor

[villainously]

calling yourself something doesn't make you one.

( and Hook personally thinks the Doctor is too odd to try and fix up anyone. )

if they're around, here's to a united effort, but I only know of the one lass.

[pajarita]

the one lass being?

[villainously]

the blonde one.
Clark, I think it is?

( forgive him for misspellings, but that would be the one that made sure he didn't bleed to death into his own floor. the one he has to thank for his wound healing instead of getting worse... though the bastard doesn't look great with the bandage off when they're changing it. )

seems you already know her, so I'm not much help.

[overprotective_hunter]

I've been wondering the same thing. I've talked to people about uniting resources but no one's really made any plans.

Or most of them think I'm too young to be of help and haven't included me on it.

I have more fighting experience than medical, but I can help out.

[pajarita]

that's universal, isn't it? youth used as an excuse not to listen to sound logic

either way, join up. clarke's the one running the healing show but she can use the extra set of hands.

[overprotective_hunter]

It seems to be. It's frustrating when we need to work together.

Is there anything that either one of you need help with?

You may not be phrasing the requests for those with medical training the right way. I've met some people here who wouldn't know what doctors were.

[pajarita]

i was aiming more for the 'wake up and work together, assholes' effect than anything

but honestly we need everything
idc, i'll tell clarke to come tell you

I have some tourniquets that Clarke asked me to make, I can bring those over today. And if you need any other help, I can do that too. My medical skills are... pretty limited, but I'll do whatever needs to be done.

text

[pajarita]

tourniquets are gonna be useful
you got anything we could use to sterilize fabric with?

text

[oceanborne]

Hopefully we don't have to put them to use any time soon.

Sterilizing fabric? [ Cashmere's bathtub wine hasn't killed any people, but it might kill germs? ] No, I don't have anything. If you can get boiling water for them and then seal them up when they're dry, that might work?

text

[pajarita]

we could do that, i was hoping for something a little more hardcore
but beggars can't be choosers, right?

text

[oceanborne]

I guess you could try saltwater? We did it at home to clean all our gear, but I don't know how it would work on cloth. Or how much salt it would take, if they haven't stopped providing that too.

[cisskabob]

Let me know if/how I can help. I told Clarke, but I've got some field medic training/experience, so count me in.

I don't have any medical supplies though. all i got was a baseball.

text

[pajarita]

sure thing, join the party.
it'll be a united front of young people who for some reasons that concern only them are versed in field medicine

that's on the list of useless gifts together with the suit i got

text

[cisskabob]

to be fair, i know why i'm versed in field medicine, and that reason is my crazy mother. but it's actually useful, so i don't even mind this one.

was it at least a stylish suit?

text

[pajarita]

seems like that's the common point

no. it was an astronaut suit and i hope they burned it

text

[cisskabob]

it's hard to argue with the practicality of medical knowledge. etiquette and ballroom dance? that's another story.

...ew, that's ridiculous. i wonder what this stuff means

[dislocked]

what else do you need?
