[This is one stressed, unhappy Claire Fraser. She wipes at her forehead with the back of her hand before looking at the screen, clearly torn between trying to appear professional and not giving a damn and doing nothing to hide her agitation. After moment, the latter wins out.]

If you haven't noticed, the bloody Sanctuary has closed its doors. Look miserable enough and you might be let in, but for now, I wouldn't go to them if you're in need of medical assistance. [Her way of helping--the less people banging at their door, the sooner they might relax. Unlikely, given the state of things, but she'll try where she can. Yet this has soured her opinion of the place, and Lysa.]

I've some things I've collected myself, and I'm sure some of you have managed to borrow supplies, so I suggest we all pool it together. Make our own temporary clinic until they allow us back in. A place to treat everyone, regardless of the madness in the streets. The residential district, preferably. Somewhere out of the way.

Ideally, no one will be hurt, but I don't think that's a realistic goal at this point.

[Looting, riots, vultures... no way blood isn't getting spilled.]

If you're a healer, and you'd like to assist, please do so. If you're hurt, let myself or someone else know. Someone can go to you or fetch you. We must rely on ourselves.

[She hesitates before adding:]

And I suppose if you feel like paying the Sanctuary a visit regardless, I can tell you where things are and what we could use.

[Not too long after this goes live, there's a text file attached with the address of a run down house not far from the starter homes, as well as a list of items that would be appreciated, including food.]

[Oh, untold joy for one of the city's chronically ill.]

Well goddamn. That place really knows how to live up to its name.

[He pushes a hand back through his hair.]

What sort of supplies are you hoping we'll have squirreled away?

[nineteenfortyfive]

They're worried about looters. Barricading themselves in isn't helping matters, but what's done is done and we don't need to shed blood on their doorstep.

We'll need clean bandages, pain medications, things like that. Though we'll be better off if we have our magically inclined friends with us, but I don't know who is planning on staying inside and who isn't.

[priorly]

Did I sound like I was suggesting insurrection? [Does he look like he'd be suggesting insurrection?] I'd rather not have blood anywhere - a functioning hospital did rather reassure on that point. Still, they're not good in a crisis, are they. Helpful, as we have so many here.

[Of the magic workers Prior knows, he suspects the problem won't be staying inside as trying to be everywhere at once. Still.]

I have a little of both, if you let me know where you find to bring it.

[romancekiller]

Yeah, it's completely ridiculous whatever the Sanctuary with the barricade and only selectively letting people in. [clarke is so not amused by this either and the irritation shows on her end]

A temporary clinic is a good idea though, I'll definitely help out with that. [she completely agrees that everyone should be treated regardless of the tension between the two cities] Even with getting the supplies we need from the Sanctuary too.

[nineteenfortyfive]

Pointing weapons at us isn't very kind, either.

[She doubts any of Lsya's "daughters" can actually use them efficiently, but you don't need to be efficient to accidentally take an eye out.]

Thank you, Clarke. You might not have too much trouble sweet talking your way in.

[Claire might have had some... choice words to say, when she came upon the barricade. Whoops.]

[romancekiller]

No, it definitely isn't.

Don't mention it— [she lets out a sigh but she does offer a small smile] None of this is right so offering medical aid with another clinic is our best chance to help everyone who does need it.

I'll do what I can do make sure we can get what we need though if it does require some sweet talking. [if that doesn't work though, she will have to do it by force much like she approaches most things back home with how stubborn she can be] Or go with some alternative plan if that doesn't work out.

I've some supplies at home I can bring. And if there is anything you need from the Sanctuary, I hope, perhaps, they might let me through.

[all of this violence isn't sitting well with him in the slightest, but as long as there is something that needs to be done...]

[nineteenfortyfive]

If you're willing, I can give you a list. I'd rather we stock up now. They're hoping to wait it out, but God only knows how long this will last.

Healers? We've healers here? I'm not injured, but ...

[ Well, he's one of the chronically ill himself. Though not nearly as bad as some of the others here. ]

[Seriously, you again? Are you actually a country bumpkin?]

How do you not know that? Do you live in a hole in the ground?

[No wonder this guy need a bodyguard. How about a live-in bubble.]

[nineteenfortyfive]

But what?

[Her voice is a little sharper than intended. Out with it, man.]

audio | un: carter

[revlon]

[ this is basically all yelling of some sort. ]

Why is the Sanctuary closed?

[nineteenfortyfive]

They're afraid of looters. Supposedly if you're injured enough you'll be let through the barricade they've managed in record time, but otherwise the doors are shut until this blows over.

I tried to talk to Lysa, but she's useless.

text | un: oland

[toten_sie]

I'm not a healer, but I want to help. Is there anything I can do?

[nineteenfortyfive]

Can you fight? If we get enough supplies, we might be in danger of looters ourselves. Or, at the very least, do you look intimidating?

[bruxisms]

We should not resort to theft.

[ #lawfulneutralproblems ]

Be that as it may, I will provide what assistance I can. This is utter folly and madness, and the Queen's lack of presence speaks far more than her words ever could.

[nineteenfortyfive]

They shouldn't be locking us out now, but there you have it. They could have kept the doors open and asked for protection.

I don't know where half the bloody people in this city are right now. God only knows if this madness is happening in Wyver, too.

text; un: spanglethesestars

[ukase]

If you need some muscle to protect your temporary clinic, I'd be willing to offer my services.

[nineteenfortyfive]

I do. I hope you'll just be sitting around and looking tough, but I worry that we might draw unwanted attention if there are many injured.

[ percy keeps it short, to the point. ]

Tell me what I can do.

[nineteenfortyfive]

[She knew she liked this kid.]

Percy. Just stay somewhere safe. Away from the windows.

[earthy]

What's going on up there, Claire?

[And is it just him or do you look older than you did last he saw you -- no, certainly not the time for that question.]

[nineteenfortyfive]

[Definitely don't mention the grey hair.]

Terra. It's not good. Where are you?

[braidedwonder]

[ Here's a young boy on screen, hosting a bit of a left over black eye and still a bit of a twinkle in his eye despite all the looting and problems going on even in Wyver. It's not very smart to go crossing borders at the moment, if he'd have been there already, scaling walls if he had to. But bringing a guy with broken ribs in to a city where they might be targeted for coming from Wyver in the first place? Particularly if that guy in question is Heero Yuy, who's dangerous all on his own?

Not advisable. So they're holing up, but - ]

I have a guy, but we're in Wyver and coming in to Olympia from Wyver or coming back here smelling like Olympia ain't gonna help anyone.

[ Sigh. ] It's gone to shit that bad over there? It's been hard to pare down what's going on when everything here is 80% propaganda and talking up Wyver in general..

[nineteenfortyfive]

[Claire's immediately displeased with what she's seeing.]

I hate to admit it, but you're right. Stay put. It's not safe to switch sides now.

[Since, apparently, where you land is the side you're on. Awful for anyone who was visiting the other city.]

We've got some fires to put out, literally. And broken windows, people being harmed when they're minding their own business. It's absurd and it just started overnight, it seems.

Is there anything I can do for you from here?
