[Video]

[Simon smiles at the camera, before he clears his throat and addresses everyone.]

Ah- hello to members of the Drift Fleet, old and new. I'm Simon, the medical officer on the Bloodsport. It seems that my sister River has been going around and making lots of friends since she arrived here- I would like to speak to and get to know all of you in turn if you wish. I will be here on the Bloodsport and making housecalls elsewhere as needed.

[Perhaps he's treating you on your ship. Maybe you visit him on the Bloodsport or run into him at the waystation the Fleet is currently docked in while he scrounges for food and medicine. No matter what, Simon wants to know the people his sister is bonding with. Why not say hello?]

They don't. It all depends if they have a medical officer on board or not.

Which does not seem right to me- then again, I suppose a doctor or someone with the proper augment might be the only person who would be able to use the equipment and supplies. Someone improperly trained could do more harm than good...

Yeaaah. I guess we just need to spread our resources, if something terrible happens.

Again.

And I have the feeling it will- though I wonder if this was a ratings stunt by Atroma, or just a coincidence? If they have total control over our experience, or only partial?

If Atroma are to believed, they had nothing to do with it. I don't know, myself. It's too convenient.

[He doesn't trust all powerful beings any more. Nope.]

I agree. They seem quite- intent on making us feel as though we should feel safe when we are in their care. It does not sit well with me.

I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop.

[And maybe Xibalba show up and laugh mockingly. That too. ]

Mmmm, me too. I dislike feeling that way, but I do not want to let my guard down, either.

It wouldn't be the best idea. We have no idea what we could end up facing, here.

Agreed. Well, I am glad I ran into you, Manolo- I am sure we will be seeing a lot more of each other.

[That gets a wide smile. ]

I'm sure we will. My door's always open if you need me.

I will keep that in mind. Thank you.

[[I think this is a good spot to wrap up. <3]]
