2.1/ audio / the flame inside your heart - why are there only ashes left?

[dedikated]

( Well, isn't this the rarest of sounds. But text doesn't cut it when there's a fucking fire heading through the city. )

Reet.

( And Kate does not sound anywhere near as carefully neutral as most might be used to. Her voice is a sharp snap, all business. )

If you're safe and you work at the Clinic, tell me what you're doing right now. Priorities are making sure anyone who needs healing is healed and that we have a safe place to work in.

( Sometime after the city split in two and before she left, Kate thought about opening a second clinic location, and now that thought is reoccurring. )

If you need healing, use the emergency alert app to send your location to a staff member or report here.

( And now, for something more personal: )

Anyone with powers to fight the fire or heal people can come to me for a boost to their abilities if needed.

That's all.

( Well, except for this bit, which is locked to clinic staff: )

Place is in the road of the fire. Got a whole load of flammable items in it. You get a chance, pick as much shit up and move it somewhere else.

I have been displaced from my apartment by the fire. I have sustained minor burns. I am not sure I will be of much assistance, but I will do what I can.

[All said like she is giving a report at the lab. Like normal, pretty much.]

voice

[dedikated]

Got burn ointment in the clinic. Swing by and we can get you patched up. You have somewhere to stay?

voice

[notimpervious]

Thank you. I will head over as soon as I can.

Yes, I am staying withh Dr. Sweets.

If there are enough people at the clinic, I'm going to keep working at the front of the fire, healing the fighters and checking victims as they're pulled out.

[ As for the flammable things in the clinic itself... ]

I can send some able hands your way to relocate things. Maybe we should arrange one place for it all to go?

[ Just in case they wind up having to move the clinic itself out of the path of flames. ]

[dedikated]

Good. Be careful.

( She'll be there eventually too, once she knows that status of everyone. )

Aye. Thinking south of th' river if we can find somewhere.

Re: audio;

[pellameno]

I will. You too, Kate.

[ Because he knows she'll be in the middle of things one way or another. As for a place to relocate to, he thinks for a moment. ]

The Guard headquarters is down there, I think it's the only restored building besides the temples. We could ask to use it, but that's a long way to go with injured patients.

[voice]

[hot_mes]

Already at the clinic. I don't plan to leave unless the fire actually reaches here.

[might as well address the flammable things too]

If it gets that critical I can instantly move things, but my range has a limit. And if I need my ability to treat patients, I won't have enough stamina left to also move objects.

[voice]

[dedikated]

On th' roof right now. Still got time but shit's burning bright.

( Of course you are, Kate. She'd rather not take the chance with the flammable equipment. )

We move as much as possible now while we don't have to use powers. If it gets critical, I should be able to help increase your power output.

( Probably. She'd need to check. )

[voice]

[hot_mes]

[He'd be intrigued to see if that's possible. His Devil Fruit has so many drawbacks, and exhausting it is one of them]

Fine. I want to rest and conserve my power as much as I can, just in case, but I'll do what I can in the meantime.

As long as people are smart and evacuate rather than try to play the hero and get burned...

[Audo]

[drabsolutelynot]

I have been going back and forth from the clinic but I plan to be more settled there soon if the fires keep burning

[Which he assumes, knowing this cave, they will]

No injuries to report.

[Audio]

[dedikated]

Reet. 'M at the clinic now. Prob'ly move to help others once I know where everyone is.

Be careful and keep in touch.

voice

[unknowable]

I'll head over there and pack up what I can. We should move it across the river, if we can - maybe to an empty shop.

voice

[dedikated]

Good. Pick a place and let us know. Can help you move things.

( She can help the people fighting the fire and healing in a bit. If the clinic explodes, that's going to be way more of a pain. )

audio

[toiletseat_girl]

I'm at the clinic, helping people who come in with whatever it is they need help with. Why, are we in the path of the fire?

audio

[dedikated]

( Well, she's here for your rooftop fire report: )

Isn't here yet, doesn't look like it's slowing down, though.

[Text yes even in an emergency]

[aroundthecoroner]

Coming
I'll move stuff unless you need me elsewhere
Should we be redirecting patients south?

[Text]

[dedikated]

Not yet. Just don't want to be scrambling to move flammables if shit gets out of hand.

[eyeofthetiger]

If you catch wind that someone could use an extra man on the firebrigade, let me know. I ain't much good, but I can still hold a hose.

[ assuming that anyone even fights fire the normal way in this cave, but it's worth a shot. Meanwhile, he'll just be running around trying to figure out where he could be the most useful. ]

[dedikated]

( Okay, so Jo told her Dean was back. Even told her that he was younger.

That doesn't exactly prepare her for the shock of that familiar voice on the other end of the line. Lord, it has been a long time. Even longer since her own trip home. She inhales audibly before speaking: )

You spoke with Curufin? Sure he'd be delighted to get some extra hands.

( And, on the other: )

Can always grab a first aid kit and help us out as well.

( She won't complain about more hands to patch up burns or help out that way. )

Voice

[knifecollecting]

[Jo is walking as she talks, so she doesn't bother with video.]

I'm headed to the clinic.

Voice

[dedikated]

Great.

( Kate sounds pretty relieved to hear that. If there's one thing you can count on in Hadriel it's that everyone seems to band together to help when the need arises. She doesn't have to make posts like this, because everyone's thinking the same thing. )

[unitas]

You know I can fight fire, Kate, so I'm coming your way.

[dedikated]

( Kate boosting Sharon's powers again? That's going to be a good fuckin' time. )

Reet. Be outside the clinic once everything's sorted.

( Once there's far fewer flammable items in the clinic and she knows where everyone is and there's burn ointment stacked to the heavens etc. )

[ You can catch a glimpse of the Spire One flames off to the right in the frame. Smoke is billowing, and the hoses are going full blast. Curufin is taking a minute to check in with the Clinic. ]

I'm on your roster as a sort of ambulance service. Let me know if you decide to move and you have injured people who can't walk. The Brigade can spare a vehicle to get people moved in a hurry. We're busy but we'll make time.

And I'd suggest Love's temple, if you want to set up a clinic refuge across the river. Guard HQ might work, too, if you don't mind setting up in the practice area. But you'd have to check with Henry and Maketh about that first.

video

[dedikated]

Alright.

( She'll keep that in mind, but as for a place across the river. )

Neutral territory's probably best. ( Even if the effects of the temples aren't that powerful, do you really want to try dragging someone like Rey into Love's temple for treatment, for example? ) Sending Adam to scout summat out for now.
