text; locked to clinic staff.
Locations. Each island's going to need a clinic location on it. Pick a base. If necessary, talk to the guardspeople there and work something out. Looking into moving supplies now. Teleporting volunteers welcome.

video; public.
( It's been a while, not only since Kate's addressed the city by video, but since the city's seen her in full, vibrant pink haired glory. God, she misses paying for hair dye with money like a normal person. God favours are a pain. But that did happen, and her hair returned to its customary hue sometime before everyone's limbs got chopped off or their senses disappeared.

(Hey, Fear - 🖕)

But she appears calm, collected, and just a smidgen over this city divided in four nonsense when she speaks. )

First things first - Clinic's on the island with the Colosseum. Supplies are alright. Gonna get transported to other islands soon as possible. Anyone who can heal or do first aid who isn't part of the clinic let us know your location if anyone needs help.

( But most importantly: ) Don't be stupid. Our assistance is limited for now.

( Kate out. )

( A tilt of her head. Hobbits? A word she's never heard before, another new thing in the endless universes which Hadriel brings to them. )

Makes sense. ( The dwarves' attitudes, that is. ) People ask stupid questions.

[ He laughs brightly at that ]

You sound just like them, when you say that! Our kindreds are sundered by old griefs, now. But I am of the Noldor, and we remember the early days, when our kin and theirs worked together to make works greater than we could have managed alone. But King Azhagal would always grumble that we were flighty and strange and asked weird questions.

( Look, she grew up hearing that humans are stupid. Even if they know that people with powers exist, they can't quite control themselves from asking dumbfuck things.

And then there's the people who are afraid of Superhumans... )

...Sounds like home. ( Old griefs, though unfortunately given new fuel, even if treaties have been signed now. )

[ Maglor would say 'impetous', rather than stupid! But he's very fond of Men, since one of his fosterlings tied his fate to them ]

I suppose people will be people everywhere. [ He agrees ] Ai! But I miss Azhagal. He was a good friend, and strong ally. The dwarves now are suspicious of outsiders, and Gimli and Legolas are an unusual friendship simply because there has not been close friendship between our peoples since Celebrimbor died and Eregion fell.

( She supposes she's met some good ones here, but back home? Well, the only humans Kate meets are the people who work in shops, the ones who - ever so occasionally - get wrapped up in some Superpowered accident and need treating. And those she never really met, but had to stop when they were possessed.

Humans back home are a concept, really, more than they are people. )

... Understood about half of that.

( The halves that didn't involve names and dating via deaths and fallen... somethings? )

Sorry. [ Maglor ducks a little, apologetically ]

I get nostalgic, at times. I miss the days when elves and dwarves were not just reluctant allies but good friends, I suppose.

( Can't relate, by virtue of not living for thousands of years. Come to think of it, she doesn't even know if there were such days back home, she can only guess that there never was. )

'S the kind of shit that happens. ( Friendships end, people leave, people die. She says it all as casually as possible, but it's hypocrisy, really, from a woman who constantly feels the ache of lost relationships. )

It is. [ He sighs sadly ]

The world turns, and the elves are leaving, and with us the memory of the elder days. Not that it is all for the bad, mind. But... it is sad to see it go, all the same.

( Well, that got real dark real fuckin fast. )

Guess it would be.

( It hasn't quite gotten so desperate back home. She can't even imagine. )

[ Welcome to Maglor's head ]

It's the way of things. [ He shrugs ] Time waits for no one, as they say.

( He's in good company (: )

True.

( And Hadriel certainly doesn't. Which is why she should probably get a move on and get back to making sure they can survive these islands. )

[ Brofist of people with terrible tendencies to get dark ]

I will let you get back to organizing then, milady. Thank you - and good fortune!
