Video | welcome, hallo, buenos días, ohayō, etc, etc! | UN: Newt

[groupiedrifter]

[Newt comes shuffling into view on the screen, holding a cup of coffee in his hand with a bag of what seems to be Sour Patch Kids harrowingly hanging out from beneath the pinky finger of the very same hand. Disheveled but more than happy to provide his services after dragging himself out of bed, he taps his knuckle on the chalkboard beside him — one that used to be Hermann Gottlieb's, may he rest in peace (in a not dead way — may he rest in peace on a beach or something while wholly alive and thriving).]

Noticed an influx of new and kinda-new faces over the last few days or weeks or whatever.

So here's my handy dandy welcome board! Recently updated, to keep with the times.

Read it over and get a feel for how this place goes; I'm gonna finish off this coffee before I take any questions.

[As he takes the world's most obnoxious-sounding sip and burns his tongue, here's the board in question:]



[And then, after a bit of time, he turns the board over to the other side:]



[No worries, current crew, if you can't get one of those introduction papers in person!

Because he's attached them in file format, too.]

Comments

[buckkeep]

They're a rarity in my world as well.

A healer. ( it's more thoughtful than judgey — fitz has a whole host of medical issues, and while he generally lives by rules that keep his weaknesses secret and safe, it might be a good idea to loop someone in. ) I appreciate the thought. Have you ever heard of Elfbark? It's a good treatment for a condition I have.

[homeostatic]

It's unfamiliar to me. But that doesn't mean it can't be procured for you here, or recreated. Did you bring any with you?

[buckkeep]

No, it
well, it's complicated. ( and made more complicated thanks to fitz's generally paranoid nature. ) I only need it in rare instances. I shouldn't need it at all, really.

Have you experience treating seizures? Sudden fits a person might have, with uncontrollable bodily shakes.

[homeostatic]

Long experience, for sure. You came to the right place.

I'd like to take this conversation one on one for the sake of privacy, however. Do you know where the infirmary is?

[buckkeep]

I do. I'll be there.

( it doesn't take him long — step one in arriving in a new, strange place was memorizing the layout. within a few minutes there's an overly large, barbarian of a man filling out the infirmary's doorway, hesitantly peeking his head through as if to see what kind of snooping he can get done before mccoy arrives.

as it turns out, none. fitz raises a hand in greeting. )

The healer, I take it? I am ( the weirdest half second of a pause ) Tom Badgerlock.
