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.]

Then you can support Childermass or anyone else who decides to visit the medical tent.

You've got no problem putting any sort of substance in your body but you won't actually let anyone look at it?

It's not like you picked up anything while you were in the Peninsula, did you?

[kingsroads]

[ poor yukio and herbert are probably listening to this conversation and thinking "he's got no problem doing what now?" ]

Arabella would have noticed if I picked up anything in the Peninsula. I'm fine. I simply don't want to have an examination.

[whattaprick]

Wouldn't you like to know if it'll be possible to put your eyes back together if something breaks 'em?

[kingsroads]

If someone can, I doubt it'll be either of those two. Do you really think any of the medical team here knows how to deal with magical injuries more complex than 'lick it better'?

[ well, Solas might. But Strange is still on the fence about Solas's capabilities as a whole. ]

[whattaprick]

[ Shrugs. ]

West's a weird one, but the cure worked.

This isn't much like you.

[kingsroads]

[ there's an awkward pause because urrrrrgh ]

I have my reasons for not wanting to get a physical. [ and those reasons are 'since Strange never takes his shirt off, nobody really knows about the bigass mirrored patch on his back where he almost got gored by a deer in the hunt and HE IS GONNA KEEP IT THAT WAY' ] Can you at least try to respect them and let me make my own choices?

[whattaprick]

No, because historically your choices have been fucking awful.

[ Tell it like it is, Lambert. However, he will add, after a moment-- ]

Can you at least tell me what those reasons are?

[ Not on the radio, obviously. ]

[kingsroads]

Meet me at my trailer and I will.

[ SO, wanna inbox/log this just so we're not clogging up the post? ]
