video: still not that kind of doctor

[zen_en_vert]

Tomorrow afternoon, we're hosting a class on the clinic on how to stabilize an injured person and then safely move the body, in an environment where the dead come back to life and where there's no serious expectation of sophisticated medical care.

It's going to be utilitarian and potentially grimly upsetting, but I suggest anyone with any kind of a stomach for it come to the clinic for noon. If you're conservative about touch, please bring a partner who you trust to manhandle you in body-lifting exercises. Of course you're welcome to opt out of that portion of the day, if need be.

Please bring donations of any medical supplies, if you can.

If you're new to Hadriel in the last couple of months, I'm Doctor Banner, I'm one of the clinic volunteers. I'm not technically a medical doctor, but since we lost Doctor Pierce, beggars can't be choosers. We've already covered wound care, risk of infection, and stitches and suturing. I'm happy to link you to that material, go over any of it in person, or continue stitching lessons for anyone who needs a refresher. If you'd like to see about volunteering in the clinic, please speak to me here, or get in contact with Kate- she's considerably more organized and better about the follow-through than I am.

Thank you.

[He says, still a little taut- but honestly.]

It's a shame Tony isn't here any more. He would have loved this.

[ Ahah. Dean almost laughs at that, shrugging kind of awkwardly. ]

Nothing like a fanclub to boost your ego. Or remind you that there's way too many crazy people in the world.

[zen_en_vert]

Oh my god.

[Says Bruce, and;]

I'm going to just- to just put the kettle on.

[kickingand]

Y'know, probably a good idea.

[ Tea heals all wounds. Or... so he's heard. ]

[zen_en_vert]

Okay. Okay, Dean.

[He says, while he moves water around.]

So you had said you had some medical knowledge?

[Reaching for normalcy.]

[kickingand]

[ Oh, okay- back to this. He sort of wobbles his head back and forth a bit, looking skeptical. ]

I mean- if you call knowing how to stitch someone up medical knowledge, sure.

[zen_en_vert]

That definitely jumps the very low Hadriel-bar, yeah. But I want to say again, don't use dental floss, I will give you stuff to stitch with.

[kickingand]

Look man, i'm just sayin- I know how to stitch with whatever you can give me. I'll pop shoulders back in place, too- dunno if I'd trust myself to set a break over someone else who's done it before, but i've been-there-done-that a few too many times over the course of my life.

[zen_en_vert]

In literally any other context I would be more concerned about that, but welcome to basically the primary medical staff of Hadriel.

[kickingand]

[ Have an offhanded shrug - this is point blank not at all bothersome to him. Granted, he also has an angel by his side that can heal all wounds, so. Y'know. ]

You do what you gotta do.
