[McCoy stands before the link holding a small pile of blankets. He looks mildly annoyed. He looks normal.]

So, is this technicolor dream tattoo going to be a constant thing, or is this uncommon? Seems not many people know the answer.

Anyway, that aside - I found a few blankets out in the Junkpile. Three total. If you need a blanket and you're under the age of eighteen, let me know. [Sorry, guys - kids come first.]

Speaking of which: Kay, Miko, Lyra, Ventus, Raf, Sari, Jack, Cody, and any of you youngsters I might have missed - how are you all holding up? Are you doing alright? Any of you feeling down or ill?

[Locked to Solus]

Hate t'bug you again, miss, but yeah. Is this glyph thing something we should be worried about? Mostly I'm concerned if there'll be any harm to the organics. And if you know why there's a sudden white outlining, I'd be much obliged for an answer.

Hn. It is hardly a cause for alarm. Merely a sign of one of my brother's favor, in addition to my own.

In your case, Prima's specifically.

[Locked]

[adamndoctor]

Right. So now you're splitting us up in groups? Well, so long as it keeps us protected and doesn't harm in us in any way, I ain't complainin'.

[thxforthememories]

Kay is fine.

I'm looking after her.

[audio]

[adamndoctor]

I don't doubt that. But have her call me when she can.

[audio]

[thxforthememories]

Why?

Is something the matter?

[audio]

[adamndoctor]

Not that I know of. It's a standard medical check-up. Physicals. We humans have them routinely, to make sure we're not falling apart from the inside out.

[toguidethem]

I'm doing okay Mr. McCoy. In fact, I'm planning a camping trip pretty soon.

Are you doing alright?

[Video]

[adamndoctor]

Good to hear, Cody. Must be hard workin' with the police. [He doesn't know how you got the job, but what's done is done.] Don't stress yourself out too much.

Campin', huh? Been a while since I last went camping. You got anyone goin' with you?

[Video]

[toguidethem]

It can be, but I know most of the things that go on, so that's pretty cool. Also I really enjoy talking to people.

As for camping, I've got quite a few actually! Let's see... I have Dead End, Dirge, Barricade, Skyfire, Wrex, and maybe Sari. More people might appear, so I don't know.

[Lol look at all those Decepticons.]

[Video]

[adamndoctor]

Well, sounds like you'll be having a party. Though, uh, not sure about the one called Dirge. Be careful around him. [He'd also say the same for Dead End, but... Nah. He feels the guy's no threat anyway.] If anything happens, you let me know, and see if Barricade or Skyfire can bring you to the clinic if need be.

[Video]

[imnotyours]

We're fine.

[There's a bit of a huff to her voice, and from the looks of her surroundings its pretty clear she's been camping out in the junk pile.

Something which Pan doesn't seem too thrilled about as he sits on her shoulder as a bird all puffed up.]

Lyra, we are not.

Hush, Pan, darling, we're fine.

[Video]

[adamndoctor]

[Yeah, sorry, he's with your friend here.] Kid, don't you have a place at your temple? Why are you out there in the junkpile? I'd like to come see you, if I can. Make sure you're in good health. Then afterward we can talk about your living situation.

[Video]

[imnotyours]

The temple is too stuffy. I don't like it.

[It reminded her too much of bad things from home; all big and fancy and sort of like a prison. At least in her mind.

She glares a bit but it's clear she's considering it from the way Pan's feathers de-fluff, the daemon glancing at her then to the comm unit.]

We'll be waiting for you here, sir. I promise.

Pan!

It's what you were thinking, Lyra!

....Fine! I ain't waiting long though!

[Video]

[adamndoctor]

[chortles] Right. I'll be there soon, kid. Sit tight and don't do anything stupid. Same goes for you, Pan.

[Video]

[deusexraf]

Not really, but...

[a beat, then he locks the frequency]

I scratched myself on something in the Junkpile a few days ago and it doesn't look like it's healing right.

[Video/locked]

[adamndoctor]

Let's see it, kid, then we can decide what to do about it.

[Video/locked]

[deusexraf]

Alright.

[and Raf pulls up his sleeve, revealing a makeshift white bandage. he pulls it off, and beneath it is a somewhat angry-looking red scratch. it's closed, and he's clearly been trying to keep it clean, but...

...given a few more days, it may need to actually be lanced.]

[Video/locked]

[adamndoctor]

[McCoy looks it over, frowning] Yeah, okay, kid. I'd like to see you here as soon as possible. I want a better look at it, give it a reading with my tricorder and clean it properly.

If you can get here without riding a giant metal worm, that'd be even better.

[winged_knight]

That's very kind of you!

[But, oh, it makes him think of the fluffy down comforter he found for Vandal. And now he feels bad that they kept it...]

[adamndoctor]

You could say that. It's more about bein' responsible. [huff] The kids here tend to get in trouble often. Going crazy with jet packs, riding giant worms, camping out like hobos in the trash...

[winged_knight]

You can be both, yes? [Huff, yourself McCoy. Wing thinks you're nice.] That isssss true. They seem quite tenacious though?

[A fact that had surprised Wing.]

[adamndoctor]

Oh, tenacity is a wonderful trait in children.

When applied correctly.

But the children are worth the ulcers, I've found.

[sariexmachina]

Eh. I'm okay. I don't need any blankets or anything, and there's still food at the hub, right?

[She doesn't seem any worse for wear, despite her previous adventure with Flying Unsafe Jetpacks.]

[adamndoctor]

Good to hear. Did all your bumps and bruises from your kamikaze jet flight heal up good? No aches or pains?

Yes. We've got a good supply in the pantry. If you need anything, let me know, and I'll see if I can bring it over.

[sariexmachina]

...Uh.

[Whoops. She looks immediately sheepish. You're not supposed to remember that!]

...I'm okay. I'm uh, I've got enough right now, I think.
