[So the fighting may be over, but that doesn't mean everything is going to be immediately fine. Finally having the time to really think about everything that's happened, and for everything to sink in, is going to make the next few days and weeks just as much of a challenge for some here as the last have been, if not more so.
But that is, hopefully, something he can help with, if at least a little. And there are new arrivals as well, who not only had to deal with the end of the invasion but also everything that goes along with suddenly finding themselves in an entirely new world, not to mention the sudden setting change too.
So he's trying to look as composed and calm as possible, which is a bit of a struggle since--like pretty much everyone else--he's exhausted and didn't get out of the whole ordeal with the Null entirely unscathed. Compared to some people he definitely fared better, but there's still a pretty obvious bruise across his cheekbone and around his eye; it's not too serious, but the main problem is that it's also not very helpful in looking as professional and put together as he's trying to appear.
Still, he's doing his best, and he lifts his chin a little and takes a deep breath before speaking.]
If anyone is injured, or just in need of somewhere safe to rest, the hot springs and the fire station are both serving as temporary locations for the clinic. Additionally, considering the seriousness and extent of everything that's happened in the last few weeks as well as the arrival of new people, it's worth reiterating that I'm a psychologist and so if anyone wants to talk, whether about recent events or otherwise, I'm available to meet.
[A short pause.]
I'm... Not exactly sure where, since my office doesn't exist anymore, and I probably should've thought about this before making this announcement...
[That would've been good planning, if he weren't so tired and scattered, but okay, refocus--]
But that can be decided on an individual basis. Additionally, if you'd like to respond privately, you can do so.
[And he includes a brief explanation of how to make a conversation private. With all of that out of the way, he'll put a filter on the post himself and add another message.]
[Private to friends and coworkers]
I hope you're all okay, and... If anyone who wants to let me know for sure that they are, that would be great.
[He's worried about everyone. :c]

You look as though you could still use more sleep.
I did, yes.
[Somehow.]
no subject
Good. Having someone like you around... [He trails off, unsure of how to say what he wants to say.] It's good to have someone people can talk to, if they need to. [He decides that works well enough.]
no subject
[But his tone is light, more teasing than nagging; he's sure Nico gets the point, so it's up to him to decide if he wants to listen to the advice.
He offers a faint smile at Nico's next words; the sentiment is something that it really helps him to hear, right now.]
Thank you. I just hope I can help anyone who does need it.
[Which includes Nico, if he's a part of that category.]
no subject
You helped me before so I'm sure you help others.
no subject
[He's still teasing, though he does mean that; he means his next response, too.]
Thank you. I appreciate that.
[The reassurance is very needed after everything, and he's glad to hear that he was able to help Nico before.]
