[Jennifer gives a friendly smile to the camera, but then she's all business.]

Okay. For those of you who have never met me, I'm Dr. Keller, the medical officer on the Wonderduck. Firstly, to build off Allen's broadcast not so long ago about assembling first aid kits, I'd like to note that I'm free to teach lessons, too.

Secondly, the attack on the Iskaulit has made me realize- I know next to nothing about medical treatment for nonhumans. I think several of our medics are lacking in such knowledge, too. If anybody would be willing to trade notes, as it were, I'd keep paper copies to be available on request to other medics. Or if someone has any better ideas on how to gather procedures and knowledge and share and store that information, I'm willing to listen.

Thank you!

Exactly. Really, we should have done it before.

[forsometimenow]

I kept meaning to try... guess I just needed the proper kind of kick in the butt first.

[dancingmd]

[Quietly:] I hope we don't have to go through something like this again but... best to be as prepared as we can.

[forsometimenow]

Yeah. No use beating myself up over it [though she well might, lbr], all we can do is try to do better next time. We can't prevent tragedies from happening, not when this place is so unpredictable... but we can do everything we can to help ourselves cope.

[dancingmd]

The important thing is that we got to everyone in time and everyone got the treatment they needed. We have nothing to feel bad about.

[forsometimenow]

Yeah. We didn't lose anyone, and if we can get together supply caches and the like, we'll have made something good happen. Out of crisis comes opportunity.

[dancingmd]

And I believe we're almost ready for the surgical center to be complete. Just a few finishing touches, then I can finally fix Wrath's back, now that she's stabilized.

[forsometimenow]

Oh, that would be great. It's not the full-on clinic I wish we could open, but I'll feel better just knowing it's available to us.

[dancingmd]

It'll be limited, but better than nothing. We're going to have a security system installed and I'd like to give you access, in case you ever need it.

[forsometimenow]

That's good. And I'd appreciate that- sometimes the medbays on our ships are just too small for major things. It'll be good to have that option.

[dancingmd]

Yes, though I hope that need doesn't come up very often.

[forsometimenow]

Same here.

[dancingmd]

I'll keep you updated on our progress. Is there anything else you need from me?

[forsometimenow]

Not right now, but I know to call you. Thank you.
