010 [Video] | Forward dated slightly to afternoon of day 132

[ofthursday]

[He had barely used his bracelet while everything was going on, but now that things seem to be over Castiel turns on the feed to address the network. He looks exhausted and there's a dark bruise across the entire left side of his face, but it doesn't seem to bother him and he's as focused and to business as ever.]

It had been some time since the last attack. The question seems to be whether this one was another declaration of war from a different kingdom, or an act of the gods themselves. It also calls into questions the claims of incompatibilities regarding supernatural powers from other worlds in this one, as this seems to have been something from a traveler's world in specific.

However, that is not of immediate import. There are likely several still injured from the attacks, and the hospital staff is greatly overworked. Any with healing or damage drain abilities should consider volunteering to assist for the time being.

[He'll be back to helping as soon as his family will let him out of the house, though that might be a little while.]

A list of healers available to act the next time we are attacked would also be of use, for those unable or unwilling to go to a hospital. I will be compiling one, so anyone who wishes to be included should contact me.

[ That's all well and good, Castiel, and she barely knows you, but - ]

Are you alright?

[video]

[ofthursday]

[Oh he probably should have used voice but he didn't even think about it.]

I'm fine. There is no need for concern.

[Surprise, bro, he has a box. A box of things.]

Ten runes I can beat you.

[aka stop pushing yourself and being a dumbass.]

[Offline]

[ofthursday]

[He looks up as he shuts off his bracelet, tilting his head slightly at the box.]

Beat me at what?

[He doesn't bother to get up just yet, though, from where he's sitting comfortably on the floor by the wall.]

[marrying]

[She sits down next to him on the floor, cross-legged, with a basket in her lap. She's about to open it when she reaches up to press her cool hand against his cheek, to get rid of his bruise.

Satisfied, she goes back to her basket.]

Are you hungry?

[Offline]

[ofthursday]

[He glances over at her just in time for her to touch his face and repair the damage done, much to his annoyance. He doesn't want her wasting her strength like that.]

No.

[He isn't, but his answer is also partly petulance.]

[samantha_grey]

Speaking of lists... Castiel, I think that woman with the defense plan's right. If that's the sort of crap we can expect, we've got to have more organization than that. If that'd been the last fight, we'd have been smoked.

I'm not backing a government, but we need to take what they talked about the other day and push it forward. I can help over in Loki District if you need... I'm not hurt that badly.

[Liar. A terrible liar at that. The pain was laden in her voice. Still, she wasn't going to act like she was some desperate waif in the fight of her life here. There were going to be people worse off.]

[ofthursday]

It is her organization, Samantha. I am not in control of it and have essentially withdrawn my own attempt at organizing a similar thing, as hers seems more widespread.

[And he has too many things to deal with anyway.]

But right now is a time for rest. You needn't do anything as of now but find a healer.

[He can hear her tone; he worked as a healer at home, and he knows what someone sounds like when they're in pain.]

Think it's over? [This is the first time since he arrived that he's had to shut down his bussiness. This sucks.]

[ofthursday]

If it weren't, it would likely still be dark.

[He doesn't believe it would get light again after an entire day of darkness if it isn't over. He's hoping he's right.]

[extradite]

[ muffled, because what is confidence before apparent authority figures! ]

Are you the... the commander here?

audio;

[ofthursday]

[The question gives him pause a moment, surprised, before he shakes his head even though it can't be seen and responds.]

I'm not. There is no individual leader here.

[ironclad]

[ Well, Jasmine looks pretty worse-for-wear. That's lack of sleep for you. ]

I'm a healer. Level two. I work at the clinic in Heimdall, but I'll be assisting wherever I can.

I hadn't even thought much of the cause...we were all just trying to survive...but no-one's spoken up about it yet. I imagine the gods should have something to say about this.

[ofthursday]

You look as though you need rest, rather than to be healing.

[He knows they all need to be concerned about their energy, especially the healers.]

Even if they do address it, they aren't likely to give us answers. That Loki is the more forthcoming seems to say a great deal.

[video]

[the_good_doctor]

A list of available healers is a good thought. You'll be positioning them at stations around the city? If so, I would not object to the Clinic being used as one of them.

On that note, in a few days once we've had the chance to catch our breath and recover, I intend on holding first aid classes for any interested.

[video]

[ofthursday]

I'm not in command of any of the healers, though I will let them know about the Clinic. It is a good base of operations other than the hospital.

That would be useful, as well.

[He only knows basics because he had very quick and powerful healing abilities at home, so learning first aid would be useful.]

[deputychief]

In fact, there's another possibility, isn't there?

video;

[ofthursday]

That it was caused by a traveler?

[Video]

[saving_sound]

Y-You're hurt!

[This is the most important part of the message, yes.]

[Video]

[ofthursday]

Not severely, and I have friends who are healers. I don't want to overuse their powers.

[He's already taxed them enough, and he's not badly hurt.]

[seventeenpills]

I'm a healer - you can put me down on the list. My name is Hisao Nakai. I'm only a novice level healer, but I'm doing my best to get better.

Speaking of, do you need any assistance? I'd be happy to try my hand at that bruise... it looks very painful.

[ofthursday]

I will do so.

[He shakes his head slightly.]

The offer is appreciated. However it is not a severe injury and therefore not something to waste energy on.

[He wants to make sure more pressing things--broken bones, internal damage, etc--get taken care of on everyone who needs them before more minor injuries are healed.]

[histories]

Of course.

If you have not already included myself based on our past conversations, I am one Healer from Sigyn.

[ofthursday]

I will include your name, then.

How did you fare in this?

[occulthymns]

[She's tired, but helping is more important.]

If any healers need a boost of energy I can help.

[ofthursday]

Do you have the energy for that yourself?

[But this reminds him that energy transfer and energy lending are also important to make note of for this, in working with healers. He should have thought of it already, but he's going to blame the oversight on exhaustion.]

[minifridge]

A list of people who know first aid and some medicine basics might not hurt, either, just in case.

video;

[ofthursday]

It would be a good idea to compile those, yes. I presume all the hunters present would be included.

[swedge]

[she's not at the house, having finally convinced Ellen to let her go to the Library. And by that she means she totally snuck out. /rebel]

So basically the gods are pulling all the shitty parts of everyone's worlds and bringing it here for us to deal with.

That's what you're saying, right?

[video]

[ofthursday]

[Bad Jo but Castiel can't blame her for getting stir-crazy. He won't last long at the house himself.]

Not necessarily, but potentially. It may or may not be the gods' doing, and this might be an isolated incident. But it raises questions that need answers.

[formercheerio]

How is knowing what happened not important? [ Yes helping people is but... this is important too - and scary ]

[ofthursday]

It is, but not more so than making certain everyone here has had the medical treatment they need.

Once that is done the topic will be revisited, I assure you.

[He has no intention of letting it go himself.]

[ ᴠıᴅᴇᴏ ]

[corona]

You're hurt, Castiel. Did... you know?

...I hadn't even thought about the abilities we saw. I thought the creatures had just - come from another kingdom here in this world. Not from another. When did we learn that? [ She's been neglecting the network too for obvious reasons. ]

[ ᴠıᴅᴇᴏ ]

[ofthursday]

I'm aware. It's alright.

One of the travelers--the one whose world this was from--made an announcement on the network about it. We are not certain how it was brought here.
