TAB - Video
[ When the video clicks on, immediately the scene on display is a modest sized farmhouse with what look like orchards in the distance. From the fairly temperate looking climate a good guess would be that this is on Kauto.
The video turns about, giving a flash of a large block of wood and what looks like smaller pieces scattered around it. Good guess is that someone is chopping wood but has taken a break for the moment. This is born out when Adrien's face comes into the feed, the doctor is dressed in a t-shirt rather than his usual uniform.
Slightly out of breath, his dark hair is plastered to his face at the temples and forehead. Yep, someone has been chopping wood, rather aggressively if the sweat is anything to go by. ]
I'll keep this short and to the point. [ Par for the course. ] For what it's worth to those you who are accident prone or otherwise given to ending up injured, I've applied for duties at the local hospital in Region One. [ He doesn't expect he's the only one but he'll let Angela and Alva speak for themselves. ]
I'm also -and I can't believe these words are leaving my mouth- using some of the equipment salvaged from the MedBay on the Moira to equip a private practice here at this location. [ He made a vague motion in the direction of the house. ]
If anyone feels more comfortable ... [ These words are delivered in a neutral, non-judgmental tone. The Savrii have been nothing but generous to this point and this is not to suggest there is a problem. Rather, he knows what it's like to be paranoid as fuck. ] ... well, what's the saying? The devil you know?
[ Pausing for a drink of water, he fiddles for a moment with the bottle, before gazing up and over the top of the device, his eyes obviously scanning the landscape for something. He takes a breath, stops the words but then quickly finishes. ]
Uhhm ... I'm not sure, who else is on Kauto but ... has anyone happened to seen Courser in the past couple of days?
[ Though his tone is level, to anyone who knows him well, there is a definite edge of anxiety in his voice and in his expression. ]

[ Adrien had actually never known fireplaces in his life, these were a new discovery for him but he'd found himself oddly charmed by the warm glow of firelight and the warmth it gave off.
Not that he was going to admit that. Ever. ]
If you come down to Region 2 on Kauto and ask about the apple orchard off to the east, just about anyone can point you in the right direction.

[But what about video games or TV or every other stupid thing a teenager needs after midnight?]
Dude, what about your food? The refrigerator, whatever.
Pretty sure I could run around and find it before anyone could point it out, but thanks.
no subject
Look at the grey hairs. Been a long time since someone in this conversation was a teenager. ]
I have a generator, though that is mainly for my clinic. IF you don't open the fridge door it stays cold enough in there until the power comes back on.
no subject
Someone's been grey since he was a toddler. It has nothing to do with mental age.]
Ugh. That's making you live like cavemen. What if you want a midnight snack or twelve? You can't just not eat at night to keep the cold in.
no subject
But point taken. ]
It would not be the first time I've gone without eating when I'd like too.

He'd slipped up there a little more than he'd intended. Someone was getting soft. ]
Not the point, Peter. Promise, it's not the problem.

So despite my rustic living conditions, I can promise you that there will always be a source of electricity if you happen to find yourself ... kneecapped.
[ The way he said the last word was a pure tone of 'Peter, no'. ]
no subject
Or maybe it's just because the reminder of what happened with the gun is enough to throw even Peter off the scent of a story.]
Dude it was one time. I'm not going to get shot in the knee again. I promise.
