Week 4 event

[foundationmods]

INVESTIGATION (?)

Friday morning comes and goes with no dead bodies to discover. Saturday morning passes with no trial. For two days, it seems like the Lady might be keeping to her word. This might truly be a week of rest, with no outside trouble brought in.

(She takes no responsibility for the incident in the vents, so.)

But then on Saturday night, close to midnight, the sound cuts off throughout the resort. The cause of the sudden quiet is unknown, but one thing is clear: something bad has happened.

Investigate?


??? GUESTS REMAIN.

[Medic nods, before remembering that. Can't be seen.]

Alright. How's your pain, on a scale of 1-10?

[While Gerome reads that, Medic goes back to working on cleaning Gerome's wounds and setting aside bandages and gauze.]

[maskarang]

[ It's so weird to have someone invisible working on his injuries??? He allows it, at least, but he has too much pride to give anything but an evasive answer to the question. ]

... It's manageable. [ Despite his words, his grimace, shallow breathing, tense body, and the way he seems to want to recoil from Medic's touch indicate probably he's on the higher end of the scale. ]

[resortghosts]

Lying to your doctor isn't smart, you know

[Can someone please teach these teens and young adults to stop being Like This, he's too old for this shit

He prepares a syringe from his first-aid kit.]

I'm going to inject this into your muscles. It won't hurt, and it'll make your pain ACTUALLY manageable. Alright?

[maskarang]

[ They gotta be Like This. In his defense, he's from medieval fantasy Europe!! You either get a healing staff or you deal with it with less advanced medicine.

Frowning deeply though like... Injections??? He hates this, thanks. It takes him a while before he nods slowly. ] Make it quick.

[resortghosts]

Of course

[The injection is painless, and after a few minutes the pain should reach a tolerable level for Gerome. Meanwhile, Medic started on bandaging him up.]

[maskarang]

[ You're a blessing, Medic! As the worst of the pain begins to subside and the bandaging starts, Gerome glance down.

When he speaks up again, his voice is a bit quiet but absolutely sincere. ] You have my thanks.

[resortghosts]

[Medic doesn't answer for a bit, instead focusing on the bandages. Only when he's satisfied with them does he reply.]

try not to do anything too foolish for the next week or so, i dont want you reopening these wounds. you'll need your bandages changed at least every couple days. i can give you pain medication, and I definitely suggest you check in with your friends that have healing spells so they can speed up the process

[maskarang]

I'll be cautious. [ A beat. ] And you needn't worry, I can clean and bandage myself. Should the need arise, I can even stitch the wound.

[ Well, okay, admittedly probably not that last one since the gashes are on his back. But he's going to pretend otherwise. ] ... What are the drawbacks to the medication?

[resortghosts]

fair enough! please do not stitch yourself up, though.

drowsiness, dizziness, lightheadedness are common. if you have any reactions that are more severe, tell me

[maskarang]

[ Long pause before nodding. Fine, no stitching himself up. ]

... I suppose a few days of mild discomfort are better than a few days of pain. Fine. I'll take the medicine.
