Sad news, you have my sympathy.

Take all the time you need, everything will be here when you feel ready to come back to it.

Man. I'm sorry to hear that, a loss of a parent is tough. Take all the time you want.

I'd like to call foul, had I known a blown medic roll would go this bad I would never had rolled.

Pranit knows he is not a medic, so he would have just put something on the would to keep it from bleeding.

Now if I put something shes allergic to on open skin, thats more in line.

Its all good, I just wnated to open the possibiliy.

Noor's a good medic...She can potentially fix the damage Pranit did...And anyone can misread a label under stress! And hey - it was right "In Character".

Not sure Nalani will want you as her MD in future though. :(

Noor has medic 3 and INT DM of +1: So she needs a natural 4+ to undo part of the damage from the steriliser and 8+ to undo it all.

A knowledgeable assistant can boost this further - as can a better range of med supplies. A hospital (or other similar facility) can be really useful too.

Time will degrade the effectiveness of first aid. After 5 mins, the benefit halves - and after an hour it goes entirely.

And then there is the question of why there is that nasty caustic substance in the med-kit.

That is the real question.

I'm just a ex army medic and rn now so I felt a bit attacked, so to speak. 😊

Pranit sounds like a point and fire kind of guy!

You have various lines of enquiry:-
1) Follow up on the location that the Buggy that contained Saffa's body came from (per NI)
2) Follow up on Prata (per Hebden's girlfriend)
3) Search Noor's parent's residences, offices, etc
4) Follow up on Assana's parents
5) None of the above.

So just pick one and point Pranit at it?

Hes a support guy, he likes a mission.

I think searching the familys area sound the best line of inquiry, but he feels the crew needs to get to ship instead.

Ready (ish) :)

I've been offline for a couple of days, and my wife's off-colour, but I should post tomorrow.

At present we seem to be lurching from pause to pause.

However, just had a message from Monsieur Rose (Noor) saying he's ready to go again and your note suggests some continued interest.

So - Just need some replies in-thread and we can be off again.

Nalani is standing by the 'phone, waiting for the call. ;)
