[Claire looks a little tired. Maybe it's due to the recent trek through the jungle, but more likely it's because her husband's returned to stasis. She could talk about that--with anyone, really--but instead she'd much rather focus on this. So, here she is, mustering up a pleasant smile.]
It's a belated thank you, but I would like to extend my gratitude to everyone that helped during our last crisis.
That said, I have noticed that quite a few of you have some interest in being helpful, and not just when it comes to fighting. You'd like to help the ill or injured as well. However, there's not always time to walk newcomers through something such as sewing a wound or changing the bandages on someone bedridden. So, with the help of Dr Watson, I'm hoping to make us better prepared in the future.
Every other month we'll be holding first aid lessons. Basic skills, answering questions, clearing up any misconceptions. Consider it a health class. Take notes, record it, whatever you'd like. If you have anything about medicine or anatomy that baffles you, please attend. Of course, we're always available for general questions.
We'll be offering two sessions. One will be on the station on the morning of the 9th, in the simulation rooms, which we encourage everyone to at least try once if they're interested. If that makes you uncomfortable, I suppose we can hold the other in Olympia in the evening.
[Her place is now an option, but she's not going to announce that bit to the whole network. Claire hesitates before deciding to end the feed.]
Thank you, and we hope to see you there.
[OOC: Class is in session! Feel free to answer a roll call here, even if your character plans on only attending once. The actual lessons will be handwaved but feel free to use the "classroom" time in your own logs.]

I think it depends on the individual, on their temperament. I can imagine Wyver suiting one or two of the people I knew from home.
Forgive me, I never had your name, miss. Mine is Linneus.
[just like his username, but he knows they can be misleading from time to time.]

I didn't, no. I've been here about two months, though, now, though what with the evacuation I can't say I'm exactly settled as yet.
The first group, you said? Then it hasn't been long that people have been coming out of this "stasis"?
no subject
I came with the first, perhaps a month or two before you. I'm afraid it's easy to lose track of time here.

I do wonder if our months are even the same, but I think it might be strange to ask a local to name the months of the year.
no subject
Come to think of it, I haven't bothered trying to look at a local calendar. The months don't matter much when you're going at it day to day, it seems.
no subject
We have September, too. But I would still be interested to see if the month names differ, or how.
But I suppose it doesn't matter, day to day.

[Well, if she's bored, she supposes she could people watch and see if she can figure it out...]

If it is not a tradition here, perhaps we might be able to make it one.
