I thought I would share this for the benefit of new arrivals and our more veteran individuals. So a bit of repetitive information for some of you, but I'm sure you'll forgive me.

Call me Daan. I am a doctor. There are a couple of others here as well if I'm not to your preferences, but I do currently a temporary location arranged if you need medical assistance. I will include it after my message is finished. We're working on something a bit more permanent, but due to the nature of the city and how it resets, our choices are scarce. So we'll make do for now.

Ideally, I'd like to perform a series of physicals for anyone who is willing. Just basic things to keep track of in case something happens. Blood pressure, height, weight, the same old same old. Obviously I wouldn't dream of forcing anyone to come if they don't want to, but consider it encouraged.

Now then. Let me know if any of you have any questions for me, and I'll do my best to answer.

It's good to know there is another doctor around that can help people if we need it. That's one of the things I've been worried about.

[They need doctors. He totally saw a boy arrive with his clothing just covered with blood... Anyway.]

I wouldn't mind coming in for a physical. It's been a while and ... I do have a few questions.

[limbical]

Fortunately, we have a few capable hands around here. Ideally, no one will need us, but I realize that's not very realistic.

Of course. Just let me know when is a good time for you, but I'm willing to answer whatever I can. What's on you mind?

serious question
can you remove bombs from people's necks?

[limbical]

That might depend.

How big is the bomb, and is it actually in your neck or attached to the exterior?

audio, @junpei

[coolerjunpei]

I'll come in for a physical.

[Of course he will, it's his trademark by now to go all in for Community Efforts, and if that includes going to the doctor, well sure!! ...But also,]

You think you'll be able to tell if they did anything to us? Like... drugs?

[limbical]

Good. Come in tomorrow at 10:00am. I'll be expecting you.

Mm, that depends. It's not like I have a lab that I can run tests with, but an examination might prove helpful in some way. What if someone performed surgery on you while you were unconscious before you got here in a place you wouldn't think or could check?

Just an idea. Not something to take seriously, but you get my meaning hopefully. I'd like to be able to do bloodwork, but that's just not going to happen with our limited equipment and resources.

my labs look great doc 👍🏻

Get a load of this cheeky guy.

[He does sound amused.]

I figure I probably don't have to worry about you as much. Now... your friend, on the other hand. Did you two have some kind of disagreement?

Oh? And what will you help with?

10/10 would recommend! gives you free booze!

Thanks. That's a real glowing review and definitely doesn't look suspicious.

At this point this is a long shot, but do you have any experience with cyberware?

[limbical]

I'm not familiar with the term, so unfortunately that's a "no". But, we can talk about it and maybe we can figure something out?

[nyanxiety]

[Hmmm... A "doctor" is a human that does repairs for humans, right?]

You fix bodies? That's convenient, nya. I need to be fixed pretty much all the time.

Umn... But, what's a "physical"? Does that have something to do with exercise?

[limbical]

[wh

why does this guy sound like he's making cat noises

Daan tries to not get his hackles up]

...Yes, I fix bodies. That's a way of putting it.

A physical is basically an examination to determine your general health. Keeping record of your height, weight, and noting any large changes.

[That sure is a bird-faced individual appearing on screen. But despite his bird-headed appearance, everything else about him appears to be human.]

If you are needing assistance, I would not mind lending my aid. And I believe I am long overdue for a physical.

[limbical]

[There's a pause, because this is not something that Daan was expecting at all. The last time he saw a bird-faced person was probably not the best but he's trying to get over those hurdles.]

I appreciate it. If I need aid, I'll make sure to set aside some basic instructions. But before I enlist you, I'll probably want to perform your physical first.

Is... there anything unique I should know?

[like the bird part]

[fussiest]

Ah, a doctor! Thank you for opening your doors to everyone; you do everyone a service.

I'm Kaveh - I'm an architect, though that doesn't matter as much around here. But I've a question for you if you're willing to answer - have you met many individuals with non-standard physiology? Compared to wherever you are from, I mean. How have you handled that?

[limbical]

Thank you. Honestly, I have a difficult time turning my back on people in need, and I'd rather we be prepared however much possible.

That really depends on what you mean by non-standard physiology. That being said, I've definitely seen some unique... people before and have done some basic assessments. Here, in this place, I'm keeping an open mind as well. So, say for example, if someone came in and told me they had two hearts and it was totally normal for them, I'd have to adjust my expectations toward things like blood pressure.

[Many thankfully positive responses… she can breathe a sigh of relief at that.]

Have any other physicians stepped forward since we last spoke, Daan?

[Because she would really like to meet them all.]

[limbical]

One, actually. I'm not sure if you know her, but she introduced herself to my private messages awhile ago.

Her name is Shoko.

Might not be a bad idea, I guess... I'm not really a doctor or anything like that, but if I sign up, can I ask you a couple things about how that's working out here, too?

[fair's fair, probably, and he's still used to the sort of place where nothing comes free. at least nothing that's safe.]

[limbical]

Ask what you'd like. What's on your mind?

[xiaoxiuya]

A physical won't be necessary in my case, unless you happen to know anything about cultivation or golden cores? [A long shot; if Luo Binghe hasn't been able to unlock Shen Yuan's golden core then he doesn't expect anyone can, apart from the people who locked it in the first place.]

But I'm glad someone's doing this. If you ever need help sourcing or moving supplies, please let me know.

[limbical]

Neither terms mean anything to me, but you seem awfully confident even if abilities are not as strong as they used to be.

Sure, I'll keep it in mind.

It's a long shot, but I don't suppose you've got any experience calibrating neural implants?

If not, I'll still take any helpful pointers you've got for managing migraines.

[limbical]

[what the fuck. what is with this scifi shit. god fucking damn it.]

That sounds rather... advanced. What is this purpose of this implant?
