This is…Herbert West: a contributor to the recent cure as you may recall as well as…your new Doctor. [He pauses to let that sink in, sounding really smug about it.] The Medical Team is still, small but as more experienced members join it has become more…evident that we do not have the resources we need to properly, treat the Carnival staff.

Namely: up to date medical documentation on you all—now, I made do before with what I had, during the process of constructing the cure but those involved may recall being asked various questions, questions which would have been unnecessary had the previous department been keeping your notes on file. Perhaps medical files aren’t required by, magical zebras but they are required by. Me. It is considerably easier for everyone when all previous knowledge doesn’t leave with the former physician—I’m sure you can agree. [He’s trying his best to sound congenial, definitely, but it mostly comes off as stilted as usual…maybe it counts that he’s trying?]

Today and tomorrow, myself and Mr Okumura will be available to perform physical examinations; any additional medical history you can provide is, welcome, and if you would prefer to attend on an alternate date, contact me to arrange a time.

[And then because so many people here are damned word weasels:] I have to insist all of you show up. Even if you’re healthy. Especially, if you’re healthy to give us an idea of your baseline state but we will, of course, treat any issues you have. Understand, it’s for the good of the Carnival and everyone’s…future well-being.


[ooc: Make sure to help me out by posting anything you think of to the med tent info post. Also, Herbert is almost literally always in the med tent during daytime hours but let us know if you have an ooc preference for checkups.]

I can come in! Little busy with the grand catalogue of costumes, but I could do that later, or just send the half of me that doesn't work in the wardrobe tent over now.

Oh, I've got two bodies going on, by the way.

[reflash]

I would like to check up on both of your bodies. [Yukio says, apparently completely unflustered.]

But if it is easier for you to send them in separately, that would be fine with me.

[espigeon]

Separately, I think, unless you're busy!

[He could warn this guy that he doesn't look all human but eh]

By the way, I'm Julien. Julien Delacroix!

[reflash]

We have quite a bit of free time.

As Doctor West mentioned, I am Yukio Okumura. It is a pleasure to meet you, Delacroix-san.

[espigeon]

Scheduling people to come in is hitting some roadbumps, huh? Well, I don't have a problem.

The pleasure is all mine! Japanese, huh. Man I'm rusty with that. I'm about half, but way too naturalized, unfortunately.

[reflash]

[A noise of assent when Julien accurately picks up Yukio's nationality.]

Oh? Where did you live before you joined the Carnival?

[Yukio is just going to assume everyone uses the radios for casual conversation.]

[espigeon]

Michigan, actually! A part of the States. But I was born in and have some roots in Quebec, part of Canada. Hence the Frenchiest name ever, though I don't really mind if it's not pronounced like a French name.

[The French pronounciation seems almost to start with a 'z' that also sounds a bit like a 'j' or 'y'.]

So, where in Japan, if I can ask? Okumura-san.

[reflash]

Tokyo, in the town surrounding True Cross Academy. [He doesn't mind talking about things, not when they stay in the realm of polite conversation.]

My brother and I now attend classes there as first-year students.

[espigeon]

Oh, cool! I bet that's difficult, especially with this unusual sort-of-vacation interrupting it. What are you interested in going into?

[Julien just loves talking to people, and it doesn't matter if that's polite conversation or just about anything else.]

[reflash]

I'm going to be a doctor. [Which is, of course, the answer he always gives. He has the grades for it. As a child, that was what he wanted to do.]

[espigeon]

Ah, how nice! I'm assuming medical doctor? So, GP, any particular specialties, or are you going to go and figure it out as you go?

[reflash]

That's right. I suppose I'll get some more experience with general practice here in the Carnival. Most of what I do at home is emergency work.
