[OOC] No Masters or Kings - ON HOLD

[Irisity]

Fixed the setting problem in my IC if anyone wants to check it out

[Kingfisher]

Quick break before I head back to work.

Elmina had just stepped outside when she was attacked, it all happened just outside the wreckage.

@Kingfisher It is worth it just to hear his little laugh. And to try and say the dinosaurs names, that is funny!

@Rosalind

Picturing that really makes me smile :) he's very lucky to have you.

[Rosalind]

Well one of my patients has just fractured my finger, lucky me.

Posts are looking fab guys! Glad I've got a good bunch of players for this story.

[Irisity]

@Rosalind how the hell did that happen are you alright?

[Rosalind]

@Irisity Patient suffers from dementia, thought I was attacking them (I was checking their obs) and they lashed out and snapped my finger back. Downside of geriatric nursing is the dementia sufferers and the violence.

I'm alright ta, they have the good drugs here :D

[Komo]

I just saw this.. Will read all the posts and get my own IC post up ASAP.

[JulienJaden]

@Rosalind Jeez, you're having all the luck these days... Hope your finger gets better real quick.
But, for the record, you're my hero. There aren't many people who do geriatrics these days. I hope they pay you alright.

[Rosalind]

@JulienJaden Ah, NHS isn't what it used to be. But I've always had real empathy for the elderly, they get a real shit deal over here. I had one old lady who begged not to be discharged because she liked having a warm bed and hot meals. Broke my heart. I used to visit her once a week with some shopping up until she died. She was such a dear thing and was so excited about my being pregnant but she passed away before I gave birth.

Getting choked up thinking about it.

My fingers are bound, only a small fracture but throbbing like a bitch.

[JulienJaden]

@Rosalind Fucking hell. I'm glad you were looking out for her.
Well, things aren't that much better here in Germany. I'm not sure they can just discharge somebody from a geriatric home but there's just too many, so conditions are sketchy at best. I'm kinda glad my grandma passed away in our care rather than a place like that. :/

Hope between your son, those fingers, dinosaurs and wine, you'll find the time and comfort to reply. Looks like we're almost at that point where it's your turn again. XD
Off to Uni for the day.

[Rosalind]

I'm not in work tonight as I am down a hand, but will be able to do another post me thinks tonight. Kind of chomping at the bit lol.

All of you have done a fab job, and we're in for one heck of a story.

[Irisity]

@Rosalind In america, most families dump their elderly into abusive systems and don't give two shits. The last years in my mom's parent's lives were complete hell and she says she regrets ever putting them in a nursing home, but she was a poor college dropout at the the time and couldn't take care of them

[Mateotis]

@Rosalind And as always, life writes the best stories.

...doesn't mean we can't try though. :P

[Komo]

I finally posted. Sorry for the delay! :|

[Rosalind]

@Symphoni I had used Laura as the woman who helped Elmina with the medical station, as I thought you had volunteered her.

[JulienJaden]

@Symphoni@Rosalind That's what I assumed as well.

I guess I could change my post to take Symphoni's place, if Symphoni likes her post as it is? It's certainly better than mine in its current state, it lacks a little substance and I'll freely admit that I was in a bit of a hurry when I wrote it, so I would be fine with rewriting mine.

@Rosalind@JulienJaden

Ok gimme a while to edit my post. I wasn't sure if that was meant for Laura.

[Rosalind]

Okie dokie

[Rosalind]

I do believe it is just Atrophy to post.

If I am feeling up for it then I shall post again tonight.

[Komo]

@Rosalind@JulienJaden

I edited my post to show that Laura was the other woman with Elmina.
The pistol got dropped as stated by Christina, so she picked it up and shot the man.

Now, its time for bed.

[JulienJaden]

Alright, the time-post-RP continuum is back in its proper order.

@Rosalind Looking forward to more posts, as always. :)
