006 - Video

[A video feed comes online in the late evening. Samantha is visible, sitting down in a somewhat gloomy, though homey room in a small building. It appears to be in one of the buildings that was spared the damage of the tornadoes. There's piles of bags and an assortment of herbs on all sides of her as she sits down on the desk, looking at the feed.

From the look on her face, and the only mild cuts still marring the edges of her features, she doesn't seem all that concerned with talking about the last few days' events. Other people can handle that.

Ok, so... give it about a week for me to get everything set up in the shop, as long as all the stock comes through. Depends on deliveries. Anyway, I'm setting up shop here. "A Pinch of Sage" is in Loki District, not far from the Hospital over in the neighboring district. It's an apothecary and alchemist shop that specializes in herbal cures. Pharmaceuticals of any variety you're familiar with through the various clinics in town should be available, and privacy for clients is strictly protected.

I will be taking clients for serious meds by prescription only, but I will have plenty of over the counter herbal cures. In addition, there is something special for you folks. I've picked up a license to work with some of the local plants with magical properties. Don't expect the quantities to be high early on, but you can ask at the desk if you're interested. It's nothing to hold a candle to the powers we get, but they're definitely interesting, I promise. Cash up front for magical herbs. I'm sure you understand.

Just look for the sign out front. I won't be doing an 'opening ceremony' sale or anything like that. But I figured a few of you might be interested while things are getting set up.

Um, Samantha? Is there any herbal cure for sleeping problems?

[If she looked bad when she made her last post, she looks terrible now. This is the longest she's ever been awake for one stretch of time, and it's starting to make her question her sanity.]
whatagoodgirl: ([sad] deep distress.)

The last time I slept was... the second night of the darkness, and that was only for about three or four hours. I just - can't. The nightmares are too bad.

How much will that cost?
whatagoodgirl: ([surprise] Ushiro say what?)

Oh - if you're sure. That's really nice of you. Where will I be going?
whatagoodgirl: ([neutral] brave girl.)

If you don't mind coming to Heimdall, I can meet you in the kitchen. [The discomfort is palpable here, and since she's being done a favour, Nakama just wants to make it as easy as possible.]
whatagoodgirl: ([happy] it's okay!)

[private] log it or timeskip here?

[personal profile] whatagoodgirl 2012-08-26 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, sure. If I'm not already in the kitchen, I'm in room 108, so just come knock on my door.

[She offers a genuine, grateful smile, probably the biggest she's smiled in days. If she can find something that'll really help... she's so tired...]

Hey, that's really great that you've set up your own business, Samantha! Congratulations! I wish you every success.

[It's like, literally the only pleasant news he's seen in days.]

I had hoped to be the first to congratulate you on the opening of your business, but I see I'll have to settle for second.
whatagoodgirl: ([surprise/shy] blush!)

[A small, round face pokes out from the door to the kitchen, downtilted eyes searching for the source of the voice. When she sees Samantha, she can't help but blush - the only time she's ever seen her on the network before earlier, she was topless.]

Right here. [A small, helpless smile.] The kitchen's in here.

Heeeeeey.

[Actually ignored what the post was about but she just recognized you :|a]

[Close up, Nakama is very, very small - five feet even and beyond the regular coltish slimness of young teenage girls, moving into "Does this girl eat?" territory. There are no signs of puberty on her body yet, either, making her look even skinnier. It's also evident how hard the lack of sleep is hitting her, her face all chalky skin and bruiselike circles under her eyes.]

It's never too late when you're not sleeping. [A weak smile that almost instantly collapses.] Sorry, that wasn't funny. Thank you for coming, really.
whatagoodgirl: ([neutral] alone in a crowd.)

I'm... [Her face works for a moment, before settling on a forced neutral expression.] ... I've learned what it means to fight now. It's just up to me to make the choice if I want to do it again or not.
whatagoodgirl: ([work] on a deadline.)

[personal profile] whatagoodgirl 2012-08-26 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
No, I'm an Energy Lender. Better suited to backing up the healers than being on the front lines, but after I was stabbed to death... I just wanted to stop it from happening to anyone else in any way possibile. Of course I couldn't, but I wasn't really thinking straight.

I've fought before, but it was in a big, relatively safe weapon, and it wasn't against people. I thought I knew how hard and harrowing it could be, but... I had no idea.
seventeenpills: (smile - rain)

[personal profile] seventeenpills 2012-08-26 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
I know it will.

[He wanted to offer to take care of those cuts, and to ask how she fared over the last few days, but thought better of it. Best to keep the conversation upbeat. He didn't want to bring her down at all after her good news.]

There are a lot of people who are going to be grateful to know a place like yours is around for them. I'll be sure to send business your way if I can!

Um, would you need some help there? I mean with running the place. Just asking.
