First Blog Entry - Is this thing on? / [ Audio ]
( OOC: Back-dated to the morning of the 17th )
[ John's been trying to locate the microphone on the journal for the last five minutes and, for the last two or so, there's a fluctuation of the feed as the book shuts and reopens. Sod it. Sally seemed to have heard him well enough when he was speaking into the open pages before, and it's already proved to be sensitive to written transmissions.
Rainfall is a distant sound. ]
Right, ehm. Good morning, Luceti.
My name is John Watson and I've a few questions, specifically toward the medical situation we've got here. I'm at your clinic, looking over the equipment and the pharmacy. There seems to be a rather, well, shocking imbalance between the advancement of your technology in medical tools and the drugs you've got.
I'm aware there's a hospital somewhere, but is there anyone about that wouldn't mind speaking about the health care they've been receiving here? If anyone could also direct me to the current Chief of Medicine -well, any authority figure between the clinic and the hospital, really- I'd be grateful.
[ Is anyone even in charge around here? It seems as dangerous to make an assumption that there is a hierarchy in place than to think there's not one. ]

[ Surprise, and curiosity. ]
I was under the impression that they weren't to be fussed with.
[audio] totally ignore the s on that last reply :|

If you do have concerns, I'd be happy to discuss them with you and forward them to Dr. Mizuno or Dr. Law.
[voice]
The only real concern I have at the moment, actually, is whether or not the clinics are in need of another staff member.
[voice]
We'd love to take on another staff member. There are far too many people in this town whose knowledge of medicine starts and ends with healing magic. [He gives a sniff of distaste, showing just how much stock he puts in that approach.] I'm guessing you're a trained physician?
(Also, his name is actually 'Willock.' Though you totally got me making derpy cock jokes, so thank you. XD)

[ Short and simple - she assumes that's what he means by the imbalance between tools and drugs? This woman's definitely no doctor, but her mother was, and Lightning was familiar enough with the equipment back 'home' even independently of that to know that what is in the clinics here is noticeably less advanced than what she was once used to... ]

[ Right. That, uh, welcome guide mentioned this, though John's had his doubts about the credibility of it. ]
Have you seen these techniques firsthand? It's, admittedly, a new concept for me.

[voice]
But I have not been here long myself, and only spoken with one medical professional. A Doctor Wilock, whom I would recommend you speak with as well.
[voice]
To whom am I speaking now, if I might ask?

[Robert would prefer an organized structure, but it's almost impossible what with the fluctuation of people in the village.]
H-However. There are... multiple medical p-professionals, and the Battle Dome C-Clinic's provisions are significantly more advanced.
Still... a-archaic, but we do what we m-must...
[Voice]
Are you a physician?
[Voice]
[Voice]
[And Selphie's been there quite a bit.]
[Voice]
[ A soft, short chuckle. ]
What sort of medical problems arise in Luceti, do you know? Is it all physical damage, or have there been incidents of disease as well?
[Voice]
[Voice]
[He imagines the clinic here must be at least staffed by someone, so it's a little shocking to hear someone just went in and looked at the condition of things.]
I'm assuming you yourself are a doctor?
[Voice]
[ He's still not completely certain of it. ]
Have you had any experience with Nala yourself?

Aside from the treatment used in the clinics, most people are capable of using magic they either obtained in this world, or their own.

(Chronic insomniac, man. When he crashes, he crashes hard.)
Weary and more than a little tempted to just ignore things and return to unconsciousness, he opens the feed to see what's going on.
... uh. Is there no one there? That is unusual. Perhaps they just stepped out to grab lunch, but with the increased rash of kidnappings lately, the reason might be more sinister.]
Hello? This is Doctor Law. I'll be happy to answer your questions. You are at the plaza clinic, yes?
