Jordi's Palace



You didn't think the palaces were over, did you?

... he might need a blood transfusion. We should get him to a hospital and pray that human blood is compatible with him.

[ Answering fact questions is... easier than the rest of all this, now that the immediate haze of battle is gone. McGillis wouldn't be heartbroken about Jordi dying, just by nature of who he is, but that doesn't mean he wants it to happen either.

And he's seen people 'survive' worse (even if irrevocably changed by it), but that was with different medical technology than what is available here. They don't even have healing tanks available. ]

Right...

[We'll just assume the Pokemon world has those, it's modern enough.]

I guess not even all our healing spells could replace that much blood...
vogelfrei: (serious; surprise; talky)

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2024-09-06 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
At the very least, we shouldn't count on it.

[ Which is why he is going to whip out his phone and call an ambulance.

Do they have a good way of explaining what happened here to the doctors? Absolutely not. But that's a problem for later, when Jordi is stabilized. ]

[Don’t most of them have weapons on them… is hospital party actually going to turn into jail party!! Not that he’s going to protest this, because he’s not exactly keen to watch Jordi die either, and that’s not even mentioning that a good number of them could probably use professional medical attention (himself included).

But still. Let him be a little exasperated at this whole mess.]


Hope you’ve got a plan on how to explain all this, man.

[because really, what do they have here. larp party gone wrong????]

[ joshua looks a little beat up but still not too bad considering he wasn't in melee range, but anyway. vague hand gestures ]

Extra-realistic cosplay and an accident where something blew up, maybe.

[ shrugs. he's saying this extremely deadpan. ]
vogelfrei: (smile; this is really his default)

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2024-09-06 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
That's as good as anything - we're going to want to have them run a blood type test on Jordi before anything else though, because if his isn't human then they might just make it worse.

[ Nodding sagely. ]

If his blood is human, we can still just go with freak skin mutations and the like. Hopefully the doctors will be too unmotivated to ask too many questions, as is usual for this city, but motivated enough to do their job.

[ Also putting his gun back into his usual 'hidden by clothes' way of wearing it now. ]

Can we not take him back to the Nekiya and cast a healing spell on him? Wouldn’t that be easier than giving our blood?

[ i need you to know that soujuurou’s idea of a “blood transfusion” is not even close to how the procedure is done. ]

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2024-09-06 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
... before I answer this: how do you think blood transfusions are done?

[ Help him. ]

technically self harm cw

[personal profile] emptyself 2024-09-06 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
You’re going to ask someone to cut themselves so you can give him their blood to drink, aren’t you?

[ he’s saying this like he’s actually annoyed at mcgillis for thinking about this. ]
vogelfrei: (other; serious; :|)

1/2

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2024-09-06 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
That is... decidedly not how it is done.

[ Don't you take this tone of voice with him?? ]
vogelfrei: (chibi; anger; textwall)

needle mention cw

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2024-09-06 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
For starters, drinking blood would do absolutely nothing for him. The blood doesn't have any nutritional value that needs to be digested - rather we want it inside his veins so it can continue providing the different parts of his body with the adequate support they need to keep functioning.

Then, no, we are not going to perform the transfusion ourselves and least of all by cutting somebody open. That is unsanitary and unsafe. Blood is moved from inside the body to outside and vice versa with a sterile syringe, to prevent infection.

Third, hospitals already have large amounts of blood stored away in cooling that was given by volunteers earlier on. Unless Jordi has an extremely unusual - yet still human - blood type, none of us will need to give our own blood. And even if we did, it would be performed in a medical environment and not cause anything more than mild dizziness in the donor.

Sorry, but…

[ good lord, where does he start. mcgillis might as well have actually just broken the auto translator and started talking in his own language, but soujuurou could not make out heads or tails of any of it. what are veins? what’s unsanitary? hell, what’s a blood type?????

soujuurou stares at mcgillis blankly, but then turns. ]


Actually, never mind. We just don’t have to feed him blood then?

[ however. ]

I still think the Nekiya is better. Less people will see him, and we don’t have to deal with their unfriendliness. Things may be worse for us there.

I doubt I'd be able to embrace him here, even if he wanted to be.

[Surely the terminology won't be confusing...]

I think you should refrain from hugging him. I might have broken a few bones.

[ he looks SO regretful saying this, while not understanding what celeste meant. ]

[ gestures at how most of jordi's blood seems to be... outside... of him?? ]

I don't think healing spells replace blood, dear.

[personal profile] cleansewithfire 2024-09-06 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
But his injuries have already closed?

[ So Sunrise figures what they're trying to do now is to take the necessary steps to support Jordi's recovery after...all that. ]
