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.

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]

Besides, even if there was a way to have Atroma set it up- I'd prefer to know that the blood drive's supply is coming from willing donators, rather than whatever means Atroma would acquire extra blood.

Murphy's expression shifts as, not for the first time since Allen's wave got sent out, he's forced to think about the horror stories back at Camp Jaha. He didn't really know much what was going on at Mount Weather; heard a lot of rumors but knew nobody would give him a straight answer. Kids and grounders in cages, strung up, bled out. It wasn't hard to imagine that worst-case scenario.]
Lucky for us, you're here instead. Day's saved.

Ah...that's the hope, anyway. Ideally, the blood bank will never actually need to be used. [He's not holding his breath, but still]

Just because nothing's happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. Replacing the blood supply when the old supply goes bad is a precautionary step, like checking to make sure you have a working fire extinguisher.

Well, you don't have to get all cranky about it. You're the one telling me I could be giving up some of my blood just so it can go stale in a cupboard somewhere.
