What: Aftermath of Anoli Attack: Hospital
Where: Leo Ward - Caduceus Hospital Headquarters
Summary: It is the aftermath of the Anoli attack on the Closing Ceremonies. The injured have been taken to Caduceus Hospital Headquarters, and it is time for reflection, visting, or old-fashioned escapes from the hospital rooms.
Warnings: Mild squick if people want to describe their wounds in explicit detail.

Caduceus Hospital Headquarters. It has a distinguished history within Hinoto-Ri, boasting of a staff of well-trained Healers, as well as possessing the most cutting edge medical technology possible. There was no limb they couldn't reattach, no organ they couldn't replace... - they even claimed to be able to bring someone back from the dead (with the small disclaimer that it could only occur under certain conditions and with an obscene amount of luck).

So needless to say, the hospital was more than well-equipped to deal with the aftermath of the Anoli attack on the Closing Ceremonies.

---

Nearly every hospital bed had been filled by an injured patient that night. The A&E room had been in constant chaos, with civilians crying and shouting, searching for loved ones, or demanding to see doctors or healers to help so-and-so...

There had also been plenty of reporters milling about, shouting and crying over the status of the Mayor's Secretary, and whether the Red Lion had really died at the scene, or if he was still alive and well within the safety of the hospital's ICU.

By the time morning broke, there was a false sense of tranquillity within the hospital. The healers had been pushed to their limits with the sheer number of patients being wheeled in and out of surgery, but otherwise, the situation had finally gotten under control. Now, both civilians and visitors were merely waiting for word of the conditions of their injured friends and family...

[Welcome to the winding down of the event! You are now at the hospital, where you may be visiting the injured, or be one of the injured yourself! Those with RED injuries will be in the ICU, and those with YELLOW injures will be in normal wards, for obvious reasons. Those with GREEN injuries wouldn't have had to go to the hospital at all, so they are free to come and go as they wish!

You may all start your threads and mingle!]

"Uh... I don't think I know you..."

That's just kind of weird to give to a stranger, okay.

"I don't think we've met yet... my name is Avitus." He gave the other what could've been a hint of a bow -- more a nod, really, and a little smile. "After what happened, I figured that if there was anything to it, it might be worth it."

Not that having a ton of those feathers growing on him had saved him from getting abused by the crowd and several of the Anoli himself, but that wasn't too important right now, was it?

"Is that uh... okay for you to do? I mean, there's a lot of people here... you're gonna need a lot of feathers." Don't go bald.

"They'll grow back. It's... it's called molting."

Stress-induced, more than likely, as suddenly a lot of them are loose enough to pull out, but he's not saying that.

"... Honestly, I don't know that much about birds. Or uh. Bird-people... or... whatever you call your species..."

Foot firmly in mouth, yep. Or it would be if his leg wasn't injured.

"Razielim," he said. "Molting is when many of the old feathers are let go, so that new ones can grow in, in their place. It doesn't hurt, to remove them."

He won't have entirely bald wings, and it won't be for too long anyway, no worries.

"Oh. Uh... sorry. We don't have your species where I come from. I'm pretty sure we don't, anyway."

Well that's good.

"You wouldn't. There was only one of Raziel... and he's dead now."

He seems perhaps surprisingly... okay with that sentiment. Pleased with it, even, unless that was just the human's imagination?
