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]

Wait- You're mugging them...?!

[THAT SEEMS A BIT MUCH FOR SOMEONE NOT FROM A VIDEO GAME]

And uh, thank you! Even if it wouldn't help another race, it'd be good to have more types of blood than just human in our supply. I know I've seen a few c- [WAIT NO SHE JUST SAID THE NAME] Miquo'tes around.

If I have found reason enough to beat someone to the saloon floor, they most assuredly deserve to pay for the damages dealt to the surrounding locale... And for my mercy in educating them.

There is one other Miqo'te I know of - We are not from the same tribe, but Miah and I are both Keepers of the Moon.

I see...I suppose that's one way of looking at it, as long as you're not..going out with the intent of mugging them.

Keepers of the Moon?

[notkittenaround]

Our kind are split into two, as cousins of each other: The Keepers of the Moon, and the Seekers of the Sun. We of the moon travel during the night, and they the day. The mothers of our kind rule our small tribes, whereas the fathers of their sprawling harems rule. Each of us are different in eyes, and tail, and fur.

[save_the_souls]

I see....

So is it a different culture, or a different race entirely from one another? I mean, the Keepers of the Moon and the Seekers of the Sun.

[notkittenaround]

We are of the same race. Our appearance does not differ so greatly that we might be split in two, and we share many things - Though, fortunately, not their men.

[save_the_souls]

Er... [HOW DO YOU EVEN ANSWER THAT LINE ABOUT THEIR MEN THEN??]

Well...that's good then! In case more of you show up!
