[vindictam]

Is there a physician I may consult? Preferably at the earliest convenience.

[legionare]

Why do you need one?

[ he's not a physician, but he does have some healing skills— ]

permatext;

[vindictam]

For a disease I may carry. Though as yet, I show no symptoms.

[ But he knows that not showing that you carry a disease doesn't mean you can't pass it along. ]

[legionare]

Don't think I can help you there.

[ he's pretty good at knitting together bones and healing big injuries, none of that finer stuff. ]

[vindictam]

What can you help with?

[legionare]

Well, if you were bleeding out, I could do a thing or two about that. Patch up any big wounds — but I don't suppose you've got a sword sticking in any body parts?

[vindictam]

Not of late, most of my previous injuries have mostly healed.

[ Six months worth of torture, at least, though some muscles pulled and ached when the rain came. But Lady Boyle had been a mercifully quick kill, with so little in the way of fighting. ]

But I will keep your name, should I in time find myself with one doing so.

[legionare]

Sure. Just have to have water near.

[ watercrafting heals. max isn't an expert at it, but he is the son of a high lord, illegitimate bastard or no, he's as strong a crafter as they come.

and if you want to keep his name, maybe you should have it. ] It's Max. [ a beat. ] Antillar Maximus.

also my housemate wants you to know he's flailing over Codex Alera.

[vindictam]

How does water help you?

[ He was never very good at the formalities of it all. Outsider knows how he ended up body guard to the Empress. ]

My thanks. Corvo Attano, at your service.

aaaah HOW EXCELLENT more people who knows thia sdlkfja yes good

[legionare]

Watercrafting.

[ which probably isn't going to tell corvo anything at all, but max has given up expecting anyone on this ship to know anything about furycrafting. ] Needs water, otherwise I can't do a thing.

I may assist.

[vindictam]

Where may I find you.

text;

[sweetbreads]

The medical wing where you arrived, or if you would prefer we may meet at a place of your choosing.

[vindictam]

How many people are there at present?

[ pause before another message sent. ]

I'd like to keep exposure to the disease I may carry to a minimum.

text;

[sweetbreads]

In that case, I will come to you. If there's anything you believe I should add to my first aid kit, speak now.

text; also sorry for all the vague information fdjkfd

[vindictam]

I have little idea what would be required, but the disease attacks the immune system itself, as well as attacks the lungs and mind, as far as I have seen it so those afflicted.

text; it's all good!

[sweetbreads]

I'm familiar with some diseases that have similar symptoms. I assume you're in the room assigned to you?

text; had to sit down and work out how this silly disease works

[vindictam]

I will be shortly.

[ He'd found somewhere isolated to hole up, for the time being. But it was easy enough to get back. Which he sent his room's number along as well. ]

[northerner]

Are you ill or injured? There are maesters--doctors, in the medical bay who would be able to tend to you.

[vindictam]

Possibly ill.

[ pause, before another message sent. ]

The medical bay is where I arrived?

[northerner]

Aye, it was. If you've an illness, the remedy would be found there.

[vindictam]

My thanks.

Is there anything I should know before I head there? [ Clipped military questions, he didn't feel much of a need to extend it out through pleasantries. ]

[northerner]

Do you know what ails you? If you've knowledge of that, and how to treat it, that may help. Not all of the maesters there come from worlds where strange sicknesses hail from.

[vindictam]

There is no particular standard of quarantine?

[northerner]

Are you ill enough to require quarantine?

[vindictam]

I display no symptoms, at present. But that may not mean much, some can have it and never show it. It's already killed half my city.

[ and that really, is why he's asking. Because these people were healthy, safe from that kind of plague. He wouldn't bring it to innocent people. It would sit better with him, so far from home, to shoot himself rather than pass it along. ]
