Meet the Medic [Open Log]

[gentle_giant]

Who: The city's medic and mechanic...and all those who want their injuries tended.
What: The city medic doing what he can for all the new arrivals who've just been through an explosion.
Where: Hospital, located in the Northwest of the city
When: Shortly after arrival.  Galos will bring everyone to the city, and show the injured to the hospital.  The good medic here will care for any who come in.  Don't worry, he can care for Cybertronians too.
Warnings: Only what your characters bring with them.

The hospital is quite large, located in the midst of various houses and apartments.  One side is clearly designed for the organic residence, with nice sliding doors opening into a foyer and waiting area.  Halls stretch off to the right to various exam rooms where the resident doctor and his apprentices can check on the sick.  Down another hall are hospital rooms for those who require an extended stay.

The other side is designed for the robotic residents.  The front part is a large garage, which leads to a waiting area.  Past that are repair bays with with tables, each repair bay is stocked with tools.  The mechanic teams range from human to Cybertronian.

Whether organic or robotic, all those who come to the hospital will see the Paian, the head medic and mechanic.

Paian looked to be nothing more than a normal human plucked out of some Victorian era, steampunk world.  Large green goggled hung around his neck and large leather gloves were tucked behind a wide belt.  There's nothing really fancy about his dress, he's dressed to work.  He's a big guy, and a no-nonsense doctor.  Those who come to see him may not his worried frown as he ushers them back to get settled where he can start to work to take care of those injuries.

[Blurr is only here because his friends forced him to do so. He needs to get his head checked but he's not a happy camper because he hates hospitals and he's not familiar with the place.

He comes in and looks around in confusion until hsi eyes fall on the organic.] UHhh...is there any cybertronian medic around? Ratchet, perhaps?

[gentle_giant]

[The medic gave Blurr a reassuring smile.] I can have a Cybertronian assistant join us if you'd like, but I assure you I'm the best here. Don't worry, I know Cybertronian medicine as well as organic.

Please, come have a seat on one of the tables.

[raceme]

NooooOOOOOooooo it's fine I guess sir. [That sure was a fast talking robot. He was nervous which only makes things worse. Blurr was still not coming near the tables, he really didn't like it here.]

Have you been here for long?

[gentle_giant]

[His smile softened even more] Near about five hundred years.

[He stepped up to Blurr, motioning for him to sit on the floor.] Relax mech, you're going to be all right.

[deadlydoctor]

[Knock Out was not a happy camper. He didn't want to be here, he wanted his old medbay back and he wanted to be pampered like the hero he was. He risked his life and fought against Unicron, and what he got in return? Being dropped in the middle of another foreign Cybertron, that's what.

But an hospital was sometime he was familiar with and thus he decided to investigate it. Knock Out trotted inside the room as if the place belonged to him.]

[gentle_giant]

[Paian looked up from what he was doing to watch the red mech swagger in.]

Welcome. [He approached.] Something I can help you with?

[deadlydoctor]

[Oh an organic. Better be careful and not step on him, it would be such a terrible loss and blood is so hard to clean from wheels.]

Perhaps, yes. Who's the mech in charge of this place?

[gentle_giant]

[The man gave Knock Out a wry grin.] That would be me, except the mech part. I'm head medic here, for organiac and Cybertronian. Name's Paian.

[the_other_green_seeker]

[Jadewing frowned, both at the necessity of this trip, and the fact that he was leaving a trail of dripping water in his wake. Away from the influence of its creator, the ice-brace on his damaged wing was gradually melting. Not that he was worried about the water; Cybertronians were largely immune to such mundane forms of rusting, and he hadn't shorted any circuits that he was aware of. But well... it was frankly kind of embarrassing.

He glanced around, looking for the medic, but spotted only a human. Well, he might know where the Cybertronian medic was anyway. Jadewing dripped his way over to the human.]

Where can I find a Cybertronian medic?

[gentle_giant]

I'm the head medic here. I can help you.

[The human waved Jadewing to come in and motioned to one of the repair bays.] Go lie down...looks like I need to find something to melt that ice.

[the_other_green_seeker]

[Jadewing's frown deepened a bit at the knowledge that the human was the head medic. Ugh, did that mean he'd have to let this organic get his squishy little hands all over him? He knew there'd be a catch.

Still, there wasn't anything for it. And if millions of years of war had taught him one thing it was to stay in the local medic's good record as much as possible.

So he simply nodded and headed for the nearest medberth with a minimum of grumbling. He did feel the need to explain the unorthodox patch job, though as he sat down on it.]

Human I woke up with has ice powers. Had to brace the wing somehow til I could get it repaired, and options were kind of limited.

[With that, he shifted to lay down on his front, moving gingerly and trying not to show it when certain motions caused the damage to his left side to twinge painfully.]

[gentle_giant]

[The medical berth is padded, so it should be comfortable enough for Jadewing to settled face-down and not risk stressing his canopy.]

Mn. They did a good thing for you, it's kept the damage from getting worse. [He got a hose and climbed a scaffolding and turned it on. The stream is just a gentle flow of warm water. It'll take a little while, but it shouldn't cause any more pain. He'll stop before the ice is completely melted through, not wanting to spray water directly into the raw relays.]

[notyourblueangel]

Thundercracker walked in, pushing Gunbike with him, his severed limb still propped in the sidecar. Hey, the damned thing was helping him balance better by him leaning on it, okay? It had nothing to do with the fact that he might actually care about getting McCrane's teammate his bike back possibly after decking him, just on principle.

His gaze darted all around, body tense, wing - yes, singular, the one still attached - riding high on his back. This was an unfamiliar place with far too many unfamiliar people in it for his liking, especially feeling vulnerable like he was.

He didn't like this. He didn't like this one bit.

[gentle_giant]

The human man approached, giving the Seeker a small smile. "Hello. I'm Paian, that head medic here. If you'll head into one of the repair bays, I'll see what I can do about your wing."

[notyourblueangel]

Thundercracker cocked a browridge at the human. "...right." Because SURE this is a different Cybertron, third time's the charm for FLESHLINGS to be running someplace as important as a medbay, right?

Excuse him while he scowls. He has friends who are organic. That isn't going to stop him from being SUPER GRUMPY when he's in pain and ...rather humiliated like this.

"What do you want for your services, medic?"

[gentle_giant]

"My services are free of charge," he answered simply. "There's no monetary system here, and I don't require tasks or favors of people to make them well."

[treacherous_widow]

[With everyone flooding in with injuries, right now seems to be the perfect time for a certain she-spider to sneak in and hopefully get a little unsupervised exploring done.

Besides, who thinks to look up anyway. ]

[gentle_giant]

[Who? A human used to looking up at giant robots, that's who. Paian paused, gazing up at the giant.....spider lady. He managed not to sigh and rub the bridge of his nose.]

This area is for personnel only, you know?

[treacherous_widow]

[Well scrap. She pauses to tilt her head to look at him, optics narrowed as she sizes up the organic.]

Your point?

[Is she nice enough to web down to his level? Right now, yes. Consider yourself lucky primate. She lets go of the ceiling and switches to her regular mode mid fall and lands easily on her feet in a crouch. Moments later she's standing up and surprisingly, a little taller than the average human. Maybe six or seven feet.]

Just who are you anyway.

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

[What's up HOSPITAL this dork's rolling in and immediately looking lost as all fuck. And totally dinged up but hey who wasn't a little bashed up lately?

And that's about it, Drift standing around looking confused, and probably looking for someone. Definitely looking for someone.]

[gentle_giant]

[Hi Drift, have a big human man approaching you.] In need of repairs, mech?

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

[wow hey human guy Drift almost didn't notice you there]

What? Oh, uh, yeah. Later, though. I'm looking for someone.

[fractalize]

Okay, so she's not here to really be seen, and even just being in a place of healing has her a bit anxious, but Elsa has to know if Jadewing is alright.

Peering in and out of rooms, she's looked for him, but haha, she hasn't found a thing.


Yeah, she can't stand looking like she's only in the way of things. She'll be flagging down the nearest person her size as soon as possible.

"Excuse me? Please, I'm looking for a rather---larger, green robot. I wanted to know if he was....going to be alright?"

[gentle_giant]

The tall man approached, giving Elsa a gentle smile. "I've seen to a large green robot recently. Would he happen to be the one with ice bracing his wing?"

[fractalize]

"You have!" It's less a question and more a confirmation that she was worrying way more than what was necessary.

"I was just wondering---" How did you melt that ice? The vicious cycle of panic turning into eternal winter was broken, but still, she must've been way more at ease now than she thought.

"Is he alright? Well, obviously, he's...alright, is he, err, recovering?" She's not sure of the Cybertronian lingo here.
