ATTN: HEALER TYPES

Hey, Para people! This wiki page is looking a little sad. By sad, I mean that I have no idea OOCly or ICly who is running the clinic, or which characters are part of it.

So, two things:

Who is 'in charge' of the clinic, if anyone? If no one's maintaining the wiki page or clinic business ICly, I can volunteer to do it, or let someone else. Of course, I might have missed something important, but Tear did try to ping healer types for info and got no response. I might have not been the only one.

Which characters would be a part of the clinic? I understand it's mostly a handwave thing, but a little organization wouldn't hurt, especially if the clinic staff cooperates with the Peace Patrol. A definitive member list would help... uh, everybody.

It's kind of neat to have someone who WOULDN'T cater to human interests. I find a big problem with the clinic-in-general in Paradisa is that it caters first and foremost to humans. When you're playing with stuff like aspirin being lethal to Gallifreyans and other such non-human concerns, it's even kind of dangerous for non-humans to rely on the clinic. I mean, in the past, Clark always went to the Ninth Doctor, not the clinic, if he had a concern.

Having someone there for animals would be important, too, given that the nearest vet is in the city.

This is a good point. If people bring up that there are human-like people who aren't human, Duke would be interested in learning more healing just to help them out.

And always for animals. I'll think about having duke step up, having noticed animal losses and offer his help - for animals.

That is a very good point, and one that I know two characters ICly acknowledge and would be willing to try and help with (James and Helen) because of experience in that stuff. But the trick has always been, with what James has seen so far, in getting folks to admit they aren't human when they look human and if they have medical issues.

James and Sakura made forms to gather that sort of info but IDK if folks would willingly give it to him as not many folks know him yet.

Yeah, that's the hardest part –– especially since the castle is, for the most part, a very healthy place; no disease except for losses, few residents have ongoing conditions, and technically, since time "halts" on the body, there SHOULDN'T be room for anything to develop/worsen, so most people wouldn't have problems and wouldn't know what to do when they surface. IDK, the lack of physical threat is something about Paradisa that I dislike, as I find makes it very sterile. Stop aging? Sure. But technically speaking there should be some sort of bodily process going on, there, especially given that characters still need to eat and sleep.

I'm now imagining an episode of House where the symptoms get continuously worse until House has some brilliant breakthrough and reveals, dramatically, that the patient was a WEREWOLF ALL ALONG!1

aspirin being lethal to Gallifreyans

Jenn, have I told you lately that I love your knowledge of mah canon?

AHEM. Relevance, yes: Five will pop in to the clinic once in a while to help out if needed, and he recently helped cure Helen of time radiation, so it ... might be a good idea for me to have him ICly approach whoever ends up heading this thing.

Oh god House and Five. Get to the snark fallout shelters.

Nope! But I love your canon, even if I only really know Five's well, ahaha.

Well, clearly his is the best, so. >_> You're smart, there.

House is so running this thing. Even if he's not. He's that skilled.

Woot woot. Snark parties in the clinic, y'all guys.
