Who: Allen Walker & You!
Broadcast: Video
Action: Blue Fish
When: Today!
[For people who been around for a few months, you may recognize the familiar setting of the Blue Fish clinic and another medical PSA. Allen stands behind his usual table, looking like he's in decent spirits. Timcanpy is in the background, resting on a bowl of cotton balls while wearing a miniature cowboy hat]
Hello Everyone. For those who don't know me, I'm Allen Walker of the SS Blue Fish where I serve as one of the medics along with Dr. Beverly Crusher.
Just a few announcements today. First of all, the bimonthly Blood Drive will be happening this weekend! People who donate their blood will be paid either in money or food. Any one who does donate will also get cookies and juice. If you are interested in donating, please fill out the form attached. [this one!] If you wish to volunteer your time to help, please contact me. Any vampire volunteers will not be allowed near the donated blood.
[Right, moving on then]
Second, it's been reported that since the attack, many ships have been reporting technical issues. While our engineers are working hard to sort out these issues, please be careful of any electrical charges or motion sickness caused by microgravity - er, the floating around. [and he makes a spinning gesture with his hands as if that explains it] And no, we still haven't heard from Atroma. Unsurprisingly.
Third, some of you may also be experiencing problems with your augment, such as headaches or mood swings. We're...working on it. Until it's sorted out, we can offer aspirin for the headaches but...I recommend keeping an eye on your crew in case they try to do anything like enter a spontaneous group marriage. [He frowns a little and looks straight at the camera] Please stop them. They may be cross at you at first, but they'll thank you later.
[And then he goes back to his friendly smile][he puts on his reading glasses, picks up his communicator and starts scrolling through it...and scrolling. And scrolling] ...a high number of reports of fights breaking out in saloons- [He pauses are one report] - good Lord.
[How did that even-? He frowns at it a bit, before putting down the communicator, clearing his throat, and addressing the fleet again ]
Right- anyway. If you don't want to get caught in a fight, I'd recommend simply not going to a saloon at this rate. If you do want to get caught in a fight, please make sure you know how to fight beforehand. Several fleet members offer self-defense training if you don't. And if you get injured, please contact your lab support- [he amends] Unless you are your lab support, then contact another one. Trust me when I say, giving yourself stitches is a terrible idea.
[Not that he's going to say anything else about that]
And that's all I have today. Thank you and have a good day! [He waves at the camera and the feed cuts]
[OOC: As usual, the blood drive will be handwaved unless specifically asked otherwise]

[WHOA HE HASN'T MET ONE OF THOSE BEFORE]
Mostly you just need to meet the age and weight qualifications. On the day of the blood drive, we'll use a process with needles and tubing to extract about a pint of blood from your veins. It can make people a bit lightheaded, but that's what the cookies and juice are for.
video;
Honestly though, a lot of people don't know what that is. I'm surprised.
[He's probably tall enough, though he's not sure about the weight. He'll just... leave the armor on. That's legit.]
Oh. Needles. That's, uh, new. I've never-- I haven't gotten a tattoo yet. This will be interesting.
video;
[Awkward, but whatever....just hope this isn't one of the raiders. After that concerning thought, he clears his throat and continues]
Oh, it won't give you a tattoo. Just one needle, don't worry.
video;
That doesn't sound so bad. As long as you don't take my other foot I'll be fine.
video;
[...no wonder his ancestors kept getting their asses kicked]
Ah- no! We definitely won't need any feet!
video;
[He's especially sorry because he is sort of at fault for one of those.]
Then I'll be there. I'm Hiccup, by the way. I don't think we've met and yes, that is my real name.
video;
[So hey no hard feelings]
I don't think we have. [He smiles, since man he's used to weirdass names at this point] Nice to meet you, Hiccup. I'm Allen...if you don't remember from the entry.
video;
[He's hoping he'll be able to put on some muscles at some point. Maybe. Maybe... Gods, he'll never look like his dad, will he?]
I remember. Nice to meet you, too.
[There's a bit of a pause.]
... Spontaneous group marriage?
video;
Yes. It happened years ago to a relative of mine. It was very messy.
video;
[He's done some crazy stuff under hypnosis, but he's not gonna go admitting that up front.]
