video; un: caduceus

[ The video starts with a blank screen and a muffled sound. The one operating it has yet to get used to such technology. After a little blackness, the screen focuses on the Firbolg. His skin is a sickly grey fuzz, drawn in around the cheeks, a little unhealthily thin but not gaunt. He smiles, both his eyes and the shock of mohawk hair are a very natural-looking pink. When he finally speaks, his voice is has a very low, relaxing timbre to it. ]

Oh, hey there. Is this on? Am I sending or however this works?

[ Turning his comm around a few times until he was back in the frame. ]

I eh, let's start again, shall we? My Name is Mister Clay, Caduceus Clay and I just wanted to offer my services to anyone in need really.

[ Oh God, he's not used to public speaking. This is kind of terrifying. ]

Well, healing magic is my forte, among other things. So, like, yea. If anyone needs any healing or their mind calmed, oh, I can also do that too, calm you. I'll uh, I'll be around and willing to help out. I've heard these moons do strange things to folk, wouldn't want anyone hurting when they don't need to.

[ He pauses for a long moment. Contemplating ending it there before finally adding. ]

Oh, um and, one more thing... If you've seen anything, anyone dying or dead around the place... Give me a shout? I'd really appreciate it, thanks.

[ I just wanted to offer my services — is when Fjord almost chokes on the beef jerky he's chewing. He listens to the rest of the broadcast in trepidation and shakes his head in a hand, resolving to keep an eye on anyone who responds to Caduceus with ... less than good intentions. The bit about corralling the dead for the firbolg is a great deterrent, so that gets top marks.

He responds from the living room, a terrible angle from where he props his comm on his chest and continues eating, giving a thumbs-up. ]

Sounding good! Are you okay?

[ She doesn't use the video options much but she feels like Caduceus might be more at ease if he can see her while speaking to her. ]

Don't forget to look after yourself as well.

[ Now this was a curious fellow, wasn't it? Mina smiles, making herself comfortable on her bed to use the comm. ]

Hello, Mister Clay! I am Minarii, Mina is for short. How very nice it is to know there are more of the healing ones here. Everyone's magic here, it is very different.

[ He's adorably awkward and looks pretty tall, maybe her size if it wasn't for his weight. (She wants to feed him cookies at once.) ]

You are very kind to be offering to help people, yes? I am not sure why you are asking for the dead ones, but I think the moonblessed, they turn to crystal when passed? I am not certain about the prismals.

[ She's... very much hoping he's not going to try to raise them. She's been through an entire ~~expansion~~ war with dead people, that was enough. ]

i heard the words “healing magic” and i am more in than i could say

i can do a bit but let’s just say that i always want to learn more

also uh

having someone who would be able to calm me down during sanguis would be
really really good

that moon is terrible and self bondage is not a preferable option

Yep, you're broadcasting jut fine.[ There's a man with curly strawberry blond hair and green eyes on the camera, giving a smile. By now he's used to people not being all experts on technology so he's rather patient. ]

Nice to meet you, Caduceus Clay. [ He raised an eyebrow at the ''offering my services bit' because one never knows what to expect in this city. There's a lot of people being rather blunt on their posts. ] My name's Peter Quill but around the Galaxy, they know me as Star-Lord.

I knew someone back home that could also calm down people, she could even make them fall sleep immediately.

Are you asking for corpses...? [ Surely he's heard that wrong? ]

[ Christine is starting to get used to seeing not-entirely-human looking people around this place, so she doesn't show much surprise when she answers his call. ]

I don't know anything about healing magic, but is it something that can be taught? Or something you have to be born with? I... [ Hoo boy, she's going to say it out loud, isn't she? ] Have magic, I guess. But it's only one specific thing, so maybe I can't learn. But I thought I'd ask because I'm a nurse and I'm kinda fascinated on how all that would actually work.

( There's a few moments where she simply stares into the video feed; she's finding a lot to unpack here. Finally, she looks over her glasses and asks, voice sickly-sweet: )

Oh, what do we have here? Another necromancer?

What business do you have with the dead?

[His voice is guttural; otherworldly.]

Oh, I'm late to the party, but hello, Mr. Clay!

[ The young woman greeting him seems fairly chipper! ]

I'm Konoka Konoe, I'm also a medic, though I haven't had that as my primary job around here. I'm pretty good at patching up wounds and in between activities and such, I like wandering around and helping people out. Level 3 is never short on people who need help healing.

I'm interested in your calming remedies! Have you always had them, or did you learn them somewhere?
