DONATIONS WANTED

[dissent]

Do you enjoy feeling good about yourself? Knowing you've done a good deed? How about helping those in need in the community? We're only as strong as our weakest link, after all, and right now a lot of people are feeling quite weak.

I know everything's still a bit of a mess, but in the wake of a huge influx of people needing medical help, the free clinic's resources are at an all time low.

What we need:
- Man power. Cleaners, administration, anyone with medical experience who isn't already working.
- Blood donors.
- Herbs, citrus, coffee.
- Bandages. Any spare cloth will do.
- Paper.
- Cleaning products, especially laundry powder.
- Salt, to make saline solution.
- Clear, thin tubes.
- Metal braces.
- Anything we can trade on in order to purchase rarer items such as medicines.
- More hours in day.

If you have items in bulk or with great value and would prefer to offer a discount or a payment plan rather than a donation we should still talk.

Thanks.

But no, just record-keeping. Maybe writing letters. The usual paper sort of things.

[boffing]

Oh that's brilliant. I don't think anyones thought of letters

My handwritings all right and i've got ink as well

bet all the cities have got a load of refugees now.

[dissent]

You could set yourself up as a professional letter-writer. Sending courtly messages out to all the outposts.

[boffing]

ha HA that would be a bit of a change of pace.

what is courtly

do you think someone is suing

[dissent]

Courtly is professional. Officious. Perhaps a little romantic.

What is "suing"?

[boffing]

mAybe not such a change of pace after all then. :D


umm suing is... Well I'm not good at it, but it's like when you do something wrong and they use the law on you to make you pay for it.

they do it in court! bt not romantically. it's definitely a profession. Lawyers. who have got really fucking swanky offices sometimes.

I'm not sure how it would work in zion actually.

[dissent]

Where I come from the Templars enforce the law, which I suppose makes them lawyers.

[ just imagine a templar in a barrister's wig though. ]

In Zion I suppose it's the ZDG.

[boffing]

Yeah that sounds about right.

Except that i don't know what happens when they get it wrong. justice ain't always served when people is involved.

[It's not that he has no self-preservation instinct, yakking it about it on the network, but he forgets himself easily when he's talking to someone he trusts. And not everybody believes Big Brother deserves the capitalizations, anyway.]

[dissent]

Justice is a perfect concept but imperfect in reality.

I'm sure that holds just as true in Zion, but people don't talk about it.

[boffing]

Oh right

[Whether or not it was intended as one, William takes that as a hint.]

Speaking of grand fucking injustice

garrett make it out of that shit all right or he one of your patients too?

[dissent]

I took some time off to look after Hawke, which is how there came to be such a backlog, but he's much better now. Or he's awake and joking, which are the basic vital signs.

[boffing]

Thats good. it's important to look after yourself

well and also to look after yourself but I can help with that maybe

[That's confusing. Probably. But yourself can mean all kinds of things, to him.]

I'll be by in a couple hours! Neros donating some things too.

[dissent]

Thank you, William. I really do appreciate it.
