[and_above_all]

[Since the corpses started appearing on the network, Kiriko has been staying in his room as much as possible. Must have had something to do with that creepy little girl, and he didn't want any part in it. But now that it's over, he feels obligated to make sure no one was actually hurt.]

I don't know... what exactly went on the last couple of weeks,

Comments

[angryaffliction]

Technically a doctor, huh?

[Can't say his past experiences with doctors or scientists as been overwhelmingly positive. Heap on that the sheer amount of paranoia he has, and enjoy the suspicious scowl he's giving you.]

Not one from the 19th century right? I can get around Credinta without being noticed, so if you need to stock up on medical supplies, let me know and I'll get them on my next sweep of the city.

[and_above_all]

[Bah, he hates how complicated it is to explain.]

Technically, yeah. I-I don`t have a license to show anyone, but I consider a good decade of personal tutoring, couple years of med school, and near a year as a combat medic pretty qualified...

[At least he thinks so... cue nervous shuffle at that scowl of his. Does this uniform look 19th century to you, dude?

But he perks up pretty quickly at that offer.]

Wait! You're serious?!

[angryaffliction]

[This allays some of Alex's paranoia. Some.

He nods, and gives Kiriko a long glare.]

I don't joke.

[and_above_all]

[Christ! If this guy weren't so damn creepy Kiriko might even feel sorry for being an asshole to him before.]

That... That would be a big help, you know.

[angryaffliction]

[It's okay Kiriko. Having people be assholes to him is the least Alex deserves. Besides, he's from New York. That behavior is the height of civility.]

Just keep people alive. I don't trust that pink haired healer kid or whatever she calls herself.

[and_above_all]

[Kiriko's from New York too, but that's cancelled out by the fact he moved there from Canada...

He nods firmly, as if it's an oath.]

...Yeah, I promise I will. No one's going to be dying on my watch.

Estelle? Why not?

[angryaffliction]

Good.

[Incredulous look is a go.]

Why would I?

[You now, besides her looking like she's no older than her mid-teens, and the fact she claims to use magic? Not exactly Alex's idea of a doctor. Of course his experience with doctors is mostly the two morticians, Dr. Ragland and some of the psychopaths from Gentek he consumed.]

[and_above_all]

Hm. [Give him a break, dude, he's doing his best...]

Again, why not? She's just a girl. Not that I've seen her heal yet, but if she says she can, there's no reason to doubt her in a situation like this. If she can't, whatever. You've got other options.

[He says that, 'just a girl,' like he has yet to ever see a woman who can do more than become a decent nurse.]

[angryaffliction]

[That would require Alex to dislodge the giant stick from his rectum.]

There's too much wrong about this place.

[He grunts, and switches off the comm to skulk off and brood menacingly at something.]

[and_above_all]

[Kiriko just stares at the PDA with confusion. Uhh, was it something he said?

Whatever. Fuck that guy. At least he's getting medical supplies.]

[angryaffliction]

[Kiriko will find a pretty handsome sum of supplies in the lobby the next morning. A couple of first aid kits, syringes, stitches and such. A little short antiseptics though.]

[and_above_all]

[Oh my god it's like Christmas. Maybe when he sees That Guy again, he'll give him his thanks. Maybe.]

[angryaffliction]

[Spotting Alex is like spotting Santa Claus. It's highly improbable and he may be running over your grundmum with a reindeer.]
