Video: Some Medical Administration

[dnaofahalfa]

Hello everyone! [A friendly wave.] My name is Razzy for those who I haven't met. Been here a little more than two weeks.

[Video pans to some papers hanging just inside the triage door] Anyway, I just wanted to inform everyone I've put up some sign up sheets in the triage and medical carriages. I know, its a lot to keep track of people going in and out of places like this, but you know what's always important?

Knowing who can help medically.

I figure having physical lists will make it easier to keep track of medical people who are here and get new medical people signed up. I'll do my best to update the lists of departures too.

Anyway, anyone who has experience with medical treatment, knows someone who does, or meets anyone new on the platform who does, please direct them to sign up.

I've also included a page for therapy because honestly, I'm sure some people here need therapy.

There is a section for Quarantine Aid because you can't be too careful in a closed system.

There is also an 'Other' category for anything I didn't think of specifically, or for strange abilities. Do you have dream walking abilities? Are you an empath? Can you help heal the soul? Can you take care of magical taint? Sign up there please!

This way people looking for help can easily find it instead of suffering in lost silence.

Thank you, have a good day.

Do you have bouts of intense desire to simply stop existing?

[thawed_pride]

Only in the sense that I would occasionally prefer to be insensate over dealing with whatever absurdity I am being forced to endure. No, it is rather the opposite: I continue to exist entirely because my force of will would not allow my mind to fade upon the loss of my heart.

[dnaofahalfa]

Okay, that's good. Wanting to de-exist monsters are really dangerous and that's why the last heart imploded. A strong will to exist is actually pretty good to avoid that outcome, and usually means there are manifestations that are eager to help fix problems and give some guidance. Also good to know for potential manipulation of the parts of the heart that are dangerous. Anger, self preservation, trauma, that sort of thing.

We may have to be careful of some metaphorical scaffolding, and there might be some new things that suddenly get a lot stronger because new is easy to 'reinforce,' and a new thing might crop in the void, but as long people watch they're going, it should be okay.

I am actively trying to encourage the regrowth process, and I have experience much larger changes in my capacity for emotion.

I cannot say I expect my heart to be without danger, however. I must confirm before finalizing any plans that you are confident in your ability to face Darkness. And I do not speak of a literal lack of light, as I hope is obvious.

[dnaofahalfa]

I mean, if you want help in things, you can make requests. Its just one of those things that get real touchy. Sometimes its better to have little changes. Sometimes its good to have a big change. I had one that helped with some trauma responses, beyond the corruption.

Of course. I've faced darkness before. Nothingness. And hardest of all, paradise.

There isn't a whole lot that scares me in principle, I have ghost powers which are hard to counter entirely especially with my half human status, I have an extraordinary will to live, and a wide variety of experiences.

[thawed_pride]

The presence of Nothingness is...something of an uncertain factor. The concept itself comprises my entire being, save for that seed of a heart. I do not expect it to be a danger, but there is still so very little concretely known about us Nobodies.

The Darkness remains my primary concern, beyond the scars of a horrific decade of questionable existence. As much as I struggle to be comfortable in his presence for reasons best left up to him to explain or not, there is one individual whose involvement may well be necessary.

[dnaofahalfa]

That I can handle. I'll just have to watch everyone very carefully. I can pull out of that, others can have a harder time.

I mean, that can be a thing. Its ultimately up to you if you trust him or not.

And of course anyone who goes in, I'll give a debriefing. The usual do's and do not's. And I've done the babysitter run before. I gotta be in the heart for getting in and out, and I've done it for strangers pretty well, mostly focused on making sure no one did anything too rash.

[thawed_pride]

The concern is not a lack of trust. He is also...acquainted with Nothing, and ought to be capable of adapting should it present a problem. More importantly, however, the Darkness may manifest as aggressive creatures that seek to consume the hearts of others. The person I have in mind possesses a weapon meant specifically to destroy these Heartless, as most other methods can only temporarily disperse them.

[dnaofahalfa]

Hmmm, usually the metaphor monsters can't usually escape, but if these are creatures connected to hearts, that does make it more questionable. I think. That's a Wonderella question, it never came up.

Its usually not advised to destroy things in Hearts, but if there's multiples, that should be enough 'goon' status that a few getting wrecked is fine and the rest can fulfill any functions.
