Hello, Travellers. I could use some help, and I've got a few things to offer.

1.) I've been making some salves and ointments in my free time. I have ones for muscle pain, burns, and one that's a mild antibacterial for use on small cuts. If anyone is interested in them, I'd be willing to sell them for a small price. Any medics or people in Sigyn with growth who would be willing to grow me some plants would get a discount.

2.) Speaking of medics, if there are any interested in learning self-defense techniques specifically geared towards medics, please let me know. I would be happy to pass on my skills.

3.) I'm looking for a job. I'd like it if I could find one that would use my medical skills, but if that's impossible I've also got experience helping in an office.

4.) What would you say are the good points about living in the district you do? What are the not so good things?

I've got stuff for you guys. If you hurt yourselves, I expect you to use it.

Where I come from, there's three rules medics have to follow. 1. No medic is allowed to stop treatment until the members of their party are dead. 2. No medic is to fight on the front lines. 3. No medic shall ever die until all the members of their platoon are dead.

So my shishou focused on things like evasion and defense when she started training me. Knowing how to avoid dangerous strikes and defend yourself and your patient is in a lot of ways more important than knowing six different ways to break a neck with a kick. There's also some basic disabling moves I can teach people so if they're attacked they can quickly disable their opponent and get back to their original task of healing.

( bones is... very impressed. it makes a lot of sense, even if he can see the problematic self-sacrificing implications. he's not one to say that medics should be selfish, even at his most objective. )

What do you know, that's actually pretty solid.

But I have to ask, do you also know six different ways to break a neck with a kick?

[hyakugo]

[ self-sacrifice is kind of a Thing in the narverse. ]

Maybe not six with a kick.

[ but she knows at least six different ways in general. ]

[sufferably]

That's not exactly reassuring, kid.

[hyakugo]

1. Killing people is part of my job sometimes.
2. I'm not a kid.

[sufferably]

Which is your business. I just don't have to like it.

And I reserve the right to call anyone half my age a kid. Even when I'm 120.

[hyakugo]

You don't have to act like I'm going to randomly start hurting people either.

So long as it's not insulting, I can deal with that.

[sufferably]

Didn't say that. Hell, if you take out a giant, it'll probably even be for the best.

And it's mostly up to you whether it's insulting or not, isn't it?

[hyakugo]

I think your intent has a lot to do with whether it's insulting or not.

[sufferably]

Well it's not my intent. Happy now?

[hyakugo]

Very.

[sufferably]

Well.

Good.
