Who: Allen Walker
Broadcast: Fleetwide, Voice & Text
Action: SS Blue Fish
When: March 13th

[He's sticking with voice today, making sure any video feed is getting a text message that is accompanied with it]

Hello all. I'm Allen Walker, the- [He clears his throat and corrects himself] - rather, one of the Lab Assistants on the S.S. Blue Fish. If you don't usually listen, you may want to- because I'm willing to pay you.

[Yes. That's right. Money.]

Several might have noticed that the medical bays are rather sparse in terms of supplies beyond basic first aid. Atroma says that we can send in requests for medicine, but I'm not sure I'm willing to trust them to have our best interests in mind.

[Weird thing that. But after a moment, he links up a request board database.].

Therefore, I've compiled a supply list of things that'd be useful to have in the medical bays. I know many of you have been doing odd jobs for money, and this is very much the same. You get us the supplies, and I'll pay you. Simple as that. If I get a surplus of any items, I'd be more than happy to share with other medical bays.

If anyone else has things they need that aren't already on the list, they are welcomed to submit their own requests. Though if it's anything not vital to the fleet's health, I do request that the reward be paid out of your own pocket. And if there's anything about a request that seems suspicious, I am allowed to deny it.

Oh, and there's a request list for cooking supplies too - if that's more your thing. [Thanks guys]

Finally, the medical bays are also use fresh blood for the sake of blood transfusions. For people not familiar with the concept, it's a way to prevent people from dying of blood loss.

I'm planning to hold a Blood Drive this Sunday. Any people who donate blood will be given fresh baked cookies and be paid in money or food. I'd also be happy for any volunteers to help with running the blood drive, so please contact me if you're interested! Any vampiric volunteers must be able to have restraint around blood and will not be allowed to sample any donations.

[Which yes, even that last part was said with complete straight-faced sincerity]

Thank you!

My concern is regarding blood magic, and demons. Blood is highly sought-after by certain individuals, and I don't care to see the taint of blood magic brought here, outside of Thedas.

[He nods softly.]

[He nods a bit, as if satisfied with that explanation.]

Thank you for humoring me. I've seen blood magic drag good, honest men down into the depths of depravity. I merely wished to make certain that precautions were being taken against that.

I would suggest contacting Solas, he's far more skilled with wards than I am. He is a recent arrival, and I do not doubt his abilities, though his fashion sense leaves something to be desired.

He dresses like a hobo. Dreadfully shameful, that I must be seen in his presence, you understand. I keep hoping that my good taste will rub off on him, but thus far he's proved to be a terrible stubborn man.

I suppose he must be comfortable.

[Dorian snorts derisively. Ah, elves. For all he knew, Solas would be leading them all do dance naked under the moonlight.]

Thank you for addressing my concerns.

Dorian, believe me, you can trust him. I'll be helping watch over the whole thing, too.

That is heartening. Thank you, Ino.

Is there someone here you think would use the blood like that?

Not as of yet, but I have not met everyone, I'm afraid, and you can never trust anyone completely at face value. People that use magic like that, in my homeland, they keep the worst of it behind closed doors. They'll smile to your face and act like they're completely normal and good people.

[Dorian knows better than some about how easily people can be two-faced, and how little he can trust his own judgement in these matters. His father, Gideon Alexius, men that he once trusted, venerated, both brought down to depths he could have never imagined existed in their souls.

He does not trust easily, not anymore. He guards his heart and keeps people away, he's been hurt too much by people he trusted blindly. It's a fault of his, he knows, a sentimental heart that wants to see good in things, in people.

Perhaps that was the crux of it- there was good in most. Dorian can see it, can hold onto the hope of kindling that spark. Sometimes people, places, they were broken and dreadful, but there was always that shred of good in them, something that can be used to redeem them.]

Oh, believe me, I know all about that. Just didn't know if there was someone in particular to look out for.

[ for the most part she's not entirely sure who she can fully trust in this fleet, aside from those she knew prior to arriving. But at least Dorian has good intentions here, it seems, so she will do her best to reassure him. ]

In any case -- Allen and I helped run a much bigger and busier clinic for several years without incident. And that's with all kinds of vampires and demons and mages and whatever else running around all the time. We'll be sure to keep it under lock unless it's needed for the procedure it's intended for.

Thank you for the reassurances, Ino. It does help to hear them, believe you me.
