Naomi

[becomingthesniper]

[Terrorist attacks are never fun. This one ended up being smaller in scale, so there were plenty of doctors available to treat the wounded. And at some point, Lockon here had approached, an unconscious girl in his arms. He had some scrapes himself, but he insisted she be treated first. He'll be waiting outside the OR when Naomi walks out.]

How is she?

[deadshallspeak]

She'll be fine. The girl suffered some internal bleeding due to what may have been blunt trauma to her back, but we've done all we can right now. Did she have any identification on her? Someone ought to contact her parents.

[becomingthesniper]

[He shook his head.]

Nothing I could see. We'll have to wait until she wakes up.

[deadshallspeak]

All right.

[She takes one last glance behind her, thinking of that girl praying that Alyssa hasn't suffered in all this madness, before continuing on with business.]

She's being taken somewhere where she'll be able to rest and recover. We need to move on. What's your condition?

[becomingthesniper]

Me? Just a few cuts I suffered digging through the rubble. Nothing some disinfectant and bandages can't handle. I just need a bit of a patch job and then I can help out around here.

[deadshallspeak]

[Naomi raises an eyebrow at that last part.]

Have you had prior medical training?

Emil!

[dentistwannabe]

[If Milagro hadn't been so insistent on him going, Jaime wouldn't have bothered with the annual crafts fair at the church. As it was, he kind of needed Christmas gifts - and he also didn't want to go alone. So he'd asked Emil!

Granted, he might've phrased it slightly more positively, but a crafts fair is a crafts fair... and Jaime's pretty sure some of these vendors are high on something.] See anything you like so far?

[knightofcourage]

Maybe. Just things for my friends so far.

[Would Marta take it the wrong way if he bought her something? Could be worth it anyway. Presea might enjoy some of the items here, too.]

What about you, have you found anything?

[dentistwannabe]

Nothing yet. [He'd been eying the homemade jellies, not to mention those hot chocolate mixes from the church youth group. The handmade glass mirrors might be weird, and he's not even touching the glass roosters, but the sweaters and food seem harmless enough.]

I think I'll stick to the mall for my parents, but my sister might like the chocolate. [... Maybe he'll buy that glass rooster after all. It'd be a hilarious gift for Paco or one of the Titans.]

[knightofcourage]

You make it sound so easy. I'd like to get more for my friends, but I can't find anything that I know they'd definitely like.

[dentistwannabe]

Anything here, or just in general? If it's the former, I... ["completely understand"] I'd imagine it might be difficult.

[These people worked really hard on their junk, so Jaime can't outright insult them! Plus, he thinks the hippies would try to give him some "special brownies."] Lloyd's a blacksmith, right? Maybe you could find him some tools for his forge or something.

Naomi!

[twoklimmen]

[Perhaps live patients aren't the kind Naomi is used to seeing, but in an epidemic, hospitals are overrun and it's all hands on deck.

Finally called into the Doctor's office after several hours of waiting, Sigma sat on the examination table nervously. Some terrorist organization had released a virus that caused symptoms such as exhaustion, an inability to comprehend speech, extreme behaviors and suicide. The complete details eluded him other than the name (Radical-6? What the hell did that mean?), and he didn't remember being around anyone who was sick, but that afternoon as Sigma was listening to his professor's lecture, suddenly the speech had become so unintelligible it was as if he were watching a recording in fast-forward. It was over as soon as it had started, but Sigma had been so startled by the incident that he'd gone to the closest hospital despite the long wait time.

Sighing, he crossed his arms, staring worriedly into space. Shit, he couldn't be sick. He had three major papers to finish in a week, outbreak be damned. And there was no cure for Radical-6, not yet... this could ruin his whole fucking life. Sigma jumped a bit as the door opened, and had he been less stressed, he would have had the courtesy to pick his mouth up off the floor once he'd seen the bombshell that walked through it.]

H..Hey.

[deadshallspeak]

[For her part, Naomi isn't showing many signs of the fatigue that long hours and busy days have inflicted on her lately. This is a patient before her; she has to take care of him. She can't do any less, now can she?

...She's going to ignore the staring. Sheesh, he's just a kid, isn't he?]

Hello. My name is Doctor Naomi Kimishima, and I'll be seeing to you for this visit. What brings you to here today?

[twoklimmen]

[Normally he'd make some sort of pass at a woman this beautiful, some kind of joke or ask how she keeps her shirt on like that, but Sigma blurts out what he came for as soon as Naomi's finished her sentence.]

-I think I'm infected.

[There's a nervous silence that follows.]

That virus, Doctor. I think I... shit!

[He's about ready to freak out. He wonders if she gets that a lot. Really, it isn't so much the being infected he's afraid of as much as what the Doctors might do about it. For whatever reason, images of Hollywood movie heroes shooting zombies in the head come to mind.]

[deadshallspeak]

[That gets Naomi's attention very quickly. Radical-6...damn, so another one. Her voice becomes curt and demanding, in an effort to curb his panic.]

Stay calm, and tell me what happened.

Shirley

[globophobia]

[ When they said puzzle room… Yoojin hadn't expected it to be quite so literal. It's like a child's dream gone wrong. Everything is on a massive scale. There's a giant chess piece pawn as tall as he is just a few feet away, a pile of legos as large as bricks in the corner, a pair dice the size of a small dog off to his right, etc…

The weirdest part was everything in that room had a strange blue tint to it, and there were three doors leading out of the room. One room? Yellow. The second? Blue. And the last room? Green. He was 90% sure this had to be some kind of weird dream. Couldn't be anything else, because he wasn't sure how he'd gotten here, and he definitely didn't know the girl standing in the room with him. ]

This is really…

[ He's having trouble thinking of the right word for this as he stands slack jawed turning in slow circles. He stops and looks directly at Shirley. ]

Have you been here before?

[hearsthesea]

[A giant toy room...she's been a lot of places on the Legacy, but this is something new. Shirley shakes her head at the stranger, who doesn't seem any more informed on their situation than she is.]

No, I've never seen anything like it before.

[She wanders over to one of the Legos and picks it up, dropping it in shock when it shifts color to yellow.]

Oh! It changed.

[globophobia]

Is it supposed to do that?

[ A pause, realizing he just asked the girl who said she'd never been here before, and shakes his head slightly.

Dumb questions aside he wraps his knuckles across the red pawn a couple times and watches as it turns white then orange. His eyes widen, eyebrows high, and he looks over his head at Shirley. One hand out to her before pointing to the chess piece. She saw that, right? ]

[hearsthesea]

[Shirley has indeed seen it, and now she has to wonder. She puts the Lego she dropped back in its original place (very carefully), where it turns to its original shade of blue again, before turning back to Yoojin.]

It looks like everything here changes color...I wonder why that is.

[globophobia]

[ Shaking his head slowly, looking pretty dumbfounded by this whole thing. What kind of weird room is this, and why the heck are they here for? Who knows, but sticking around here won't help them out much.

So he walks to one of the other doors, the one connected to the green room. Sticking his head inside it and glancing around, more doors leading out, one to a red room, another orange, and a white room. Leaning back so he's standing in the blue room again. ]

Shirley

[kicksmachines]

[Norma wasn't the most conventional thinker and that wasn't the best thing to do when there were monsters everywhere. As she casted tidal wave, she wasn't really looking where she was aiming. Luckily, it managed to hit most of the monsters as the water hit one of the bigger rocks.]

Whoops, sorry about that!

I'M SO SORRY I never got a notif for this...

[hearsthesea]

[Yeouch. Tidal Wave ain't pretty. Luckily it's not as if she's bad with the water, so she shrugs it off for the time being and starts casting something else instead.]

Be careful, Norma! Is everything all right?

No worries!

[kicksmachines]

Don't worry about me! I got this, Shirl, worry about yourself!

[Except she probably doesn't. As she started to cast another spell that was when one of the other monsters started to go after her]

Ah, go away already! I'm busy!

[However even with the cast of fire wall, it didn't stop them from coming]

Are you kidding me? Why won't these things leave?

[hearsthesea]

[Luckily Shirley's already had an eye on giving them both some breathing room. In a moment her Ground Dasher goes off and trips up the monsters, allowing them a brief moment to fall back and get some distance from their enemies. A Shelter spell might be good for a next move...]

Norma, can you cover me?

[kicksmachines]

[She didn't need to be told twice. While she did have trouble standing her ground against Shirley's spell, she immediately went up to the monsters afterwards.]

You got it! Covering Shirl coming up!

[Of course, just as she was about to do so, she could see that one of the nearby monsters was about to attack]

Not today! You got to go through me!

[She shouted before blowing her bubbles at her and pointing to her friend] Take it away!
