Healer/Medic Meeting [Open]

Who: Ryo and anyone who wants to join
Where: Music carriage, upper floor
When: Poi 16, Evening
What: A meeting for healers, medics, and anyone who'd like to become one.
Warnings: Possibly some discussion of medical things?

[About an hour after Kabuto's initial inquiry, the ICPs flicker back on, this time with Ryo.]

There will be a meeting for healers and medics tonight after dinner in the upper floor of the music carriage. It will help us all if we know what everyone else is capable of, and Tidus has agreed to go over the various healing items we have on board, since we should also know what they are and how they work. If you're a healer or a medic, please come; if you'd like to have medical training or learn how healing items work, please come; and if you donated a healing item, please either come to the meeting or give Tidus or me a detailed explanation of how it works if we don't already have one. I'll make another announcement when we're ready to start so no one misses it.

[There's a beat, and a bit of a lopsided smile.]

And...I'll try to have snacks.

[Because people like snacks, right?]

~~~

True to his word, Ryo gets back on the ICPs before the meeting starts with a reminder. There's a table set up on stage, with a number of healing items set up on it; there's another table at the door, with three sheets of paper, labeled Medic, Training, and Items, respectively. (There's another, smaller table, with snacks Ryo was able to find - namely cookies, bread, and greenhouse-grown fruit, along with water and coffee. There's an effort there, but it's obviously not the focus.) Ryo stands on the stage, visibly nervous and visibly trying not to be, and waits for people to arrive before starting.

"Thank you all for coming. The idea tonight is to get to know each other - who we are, how we heal, and what we're capable of - and hopefully figure out how to do even team coverage on missions, including covering the triage car if things go badly and we wind up fighting another corrupted life god." It's supposed to be a joke, and gods he hopes it lands. "There's a table in the back with papers on it. If you have medical training and are willing to teach others, please sign the Medic paper; if you want medical training, please sign the Training paper; and if you want to learn more about healing items, please sign the Items paper. Thank you."

That's about all he has, and he looks a bit uncertainly at everyone else in the room. "Would anyone like to start?"


[OOC: Make your own toplevels, mingle, and generally get to know each other! This is open to everyone, so non-healer/medic characters can also come if they want to learn, or just partake of the snacks.]

Dodos? What're they?

[ Tell him about these...dodos. ]

Big, flightless birds what are raised for meat. Sometimes eggs and feathers.

[Apparently Hydaelyn's answer to turkeys...if turkeys also possessed the ability to spit nitrous oxide.]
blitzcheer: (ummmooo)

[personal profile] blitzcheer 2022-02-16 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh. [ Big, flightless? ... ] Not big enough to ride?

[ Maybe he's thinking about another kind of bird. ]
catti: (thinky thoughts)

[personal profile] catti 2022-02-16 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Sometimes. You're better off with a chocobo, though, if you can find one.
blitzcheer: (hand onnnn HIP!!!!)

[personal profile] blitzcheer 2022-02-16 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Pft. ] If I ever do see one! So they're smaller than them? Or about the same size?
catti: (:))

[personal profile] catti 2022-02-16 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Smaller. Except for the miniature chocobos bred for children or Lalafellin riders.
blitzcheer: (awww yeah babeyyy)

[personal profile] blitzcheer 2022-02-16 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Never seen those! All the chocobos reeach up to- this high, their backs? [ He makes a motion somewhere above his head. ] And they're two times my size whole!

I hear they come in different colours, some places. I've only seen them in yellow.
catti: (um???)

[personal profile] catti 2022-02-16 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
...Are you certain those are chocobos?

[He holds his own hand up about chest height] This is where their backs should be, or else everyone would need to carry a ladder to ride them.

Black's a common color as well; they're the ones capable of flight.
blitzcheer: (what the f is this)

[personal profile] blitzcheer 2022-02-16 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)
... can't your chocobos crouch? [ Like, the black chocobo thing is cool, but right now is time for comparing! He makes another measurement up to his waist to stomach. ]

Their legs come up to this high! And they crouch to let you on - the tamed ones!
catti: (???)

[personal profile] catti 2022-02-16 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Aye, but they have no need to, normally.

[Tidus, why are your horsebirds 10 feet tall?]

Why are they so tall? You must have more tall riders than not if all your steeds are that big.

[personal profile] blitzcheer 2022-02-16 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
A-aren't they just built that way? I don't know - everyone waaas...me size! 'Cept the Ronso!

[ The Official Height Measurement of Spira: Tidus ]
catti: (sideglance)

[personal profile] catti 2022-02-16 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose yours are?

[Shrug!

Hey, but Tidus mentioned Ronso, let's talk about them instead.]


...Pray tell me your Ronso are cat people too.
blitzcheer: (sorrrRRRrrrrYyyyyyy)

[personal profile] blitzcheer 2022-02-16 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Are chocobos smaller? Maybe it's just that one around the temple he's thinking of? Why could he remember...!

E-er, oh. Ronso. ]
U-uh... [ 'Cat people'? Hmm. He puts a hand near his mouth and nose. ] They have that cat kinda nose... and their ears are kind of the same?

[ ....

...loooking up at K'zeka's ears. ]
Their ears are like yours? But thicker - and they have horns on their head. They're real proud of 'em.

[ Sound like Ronso? ]
catti: (eheh)

[personal profile] catti 2022-02-21 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Can't say much about their horns, but they sound the same.

[He...doesn't actually know many Ronso--or Hrothgar, as he's more used to--well enough to try asking about the horns.]

Like mine? I suppose we Miqo'te are catlike, too.

[But completely unrelated to cats, as totally unbiased Miqo'te researchers have concluded.]
blitzcheer: (coolio dealio)

[personal profile] blitzcheer 2022-02-22 09:10 am (UTC)(link)
Your tail's fluffier!

[ Is Tidus rounding his head to look at K'zeka's tail -- look! It's red and fluffy!

But Tidus does gesture to himself as he continues: ]
But ronso have all the rest. Big claws, fur all over. Huh! Hey, wait - if you have ronso too, do you know about the guado?
catti: (hmm)

[personal profile] catti 2022-02-24 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's very fluffy! Probably the only thing with a fluffier tail is a squirrel.]

Guado? No, haven't heard of them. What are they like?
blitzcheer: (skip to end game pls)

[personal profile] blitzcheer 2022-02-24 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
They're a more...human-ish-looking people. [ Well, compared to ronso. ] They have skin, but then they have longer fingers - [ cue him showing his own fingers, not long, and then point around his face, ] - and these odd markings around their face. And they have long ears like some elves do on the train. The ones pointed at the sides.

[ Not upright, like K'zeka's. ]

They live in this kind of underground burrow, near to where you can go see the dead. ... well, in Spira, anyway.
