[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.]

[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.

[nineteenfortyfive]

I'd like to see how they explain this once this is over. [If things don't get worse.]

We need all the basics. Or at least one magically inclined healer that won't mind being worked like a dog.

[romancekiller]

Yeah, me too— they definitely would have a lot to explain.

[she just nods at that] I can definitely manage that— unfortunately I don't know anyone who is a magically inclined healer though.

[nineteenfortyfive]

Magic isn't--much of a thing, where I'm from. I've been shying away from it here, but God, it would be convenient right about now.

[romancekiller]

Yeah, me too especially since it's not something where I'm from either.

It would be a lot of help though if we did know someone with healing magic. [she pauses for a moment, looking in thought] I'm not sure if we had anyone working that would was capable of it but I can try asking around too. [she might not know them herself but she's sure there has to be someone who knows]

[nineteenfortyfive]

There's Anders, if you're familiar. But if he's not volunteered himself somewhere already... I don't know. He might be within the Sanctuary.

[romancekiller]

I don't think I've met him before— I'll be going to the Sanctuary anyway so if I run into him, I can ask if he'd be willing to lend a hand with his magic.

[nineteenfortyfive]

All right. Just be careful, and don't push him if he declines. Not everyone will agree with us.

[romancekiller]

You think he might decline?

[clarke hopes that isn't the case but there's still the part of her that would make people do things her way like she has a habit of doing especially back home] I've met a couple of people already who do but hopefully that won't be the case.

[nineteenfortyfive]

I don't know. I don't know him all that well myself.

[He did seem nice, but--]

Like I said, don't push. We don't have time to change minds.

[romancekiller]

[clarke just nods at that slightly] I still think it's worth a try to convince them but if he doesn't agree then I won't push. [she'll try not to at least...]

[nineteenfortyfive]

Do you have friends in the city, Clarke?

[romancekiller]

Yeah, of course I have some friends here.

[nineteenfortyfive]

I'd keep them near. No one should be going alone, even if it's to the Sanctuary.

[Says the woman who will be wandering around the city alone plenty in the upcoming days, but shh.]

[romancekiller]

That's easier said than done sometimes, knowing how some of them are. [especially since she tends to hypocritically do the same thing herself too]

[nineteenfortyfive]

Stubborn?

[romancekiller]

Yeah, definitely stubborn. [though that is a bit ironic coming from her but whatever]

[nineteenfortyfive]

I know that sort.

[She's definitely thinking of her family, and not herself. Whoops.]

[romancekiller]

Yeah, it seems like there's no shortage of people like that around. [which is not always a good because that can always lead to trouble and she should know because she is similarly like that as well]

[nineteenfortyfive]

Hopefully sense takes over in times like these. But please, Clarke, do let me know if you need anything and I'll see what I can do.

[romancekiller]

Yeah, I hope so too.

[she just nods at that though] Of course, I'll definitely let you know. Thank you Claire.
