hey, is this iris? i have some good and bad news the good news involves a lot of money. if that helps.

This is she!

This money is all legal, right......?

yo iris!! yeah, all legal. unless it's not? i'm trusting it to be all legal. so by now you probably know angela ziegler was ported out. that's the bad news. sorry for your loss in the clinic and everything. good news: i just got a note post-portem from her and she's left me all her money that she wants donated to the clinic. it's about six thousand dollars all told. i can add in about four thousand of my own to make that a nice round ten thousand for you. i'm also the furthest thing from a qualified doctor, but i do have a healing power and spare time. if you ever need any help or anything just give me a call? i can drop by. mine saps my energy so i probably couldn't do as much as she could but with enough coffee i can probably pull off an eight hour shift.

Yeah, I miss her a lot. :(

But oh wow..... Angela was always so thoughtful, but you don't need to donate. Promise, this much money is enough to make a difference.

We'll never turn down help either. Are you sure? Like 100% positive sure? :O
I can provide unlimited coffee since that's my main superpower.
It's more making sure that you're comfortable in what you offer and how much you offer.
I can't let healers run themselves ragged.

i don't mind. i can easily afford it. i miss her too. i'm 100% positive. i've learned the hard way not to be stupid about how much i can handle. there's no point putting myself in the medibay, right?

In that case, let me text my accountant so that you can get your tax rebates and whatever else you'd need.

exactly. plus, I'm no healer or scientist, so I wouldn't be able to help if you got sick :(

righto i won't, don't worry. i was just thinking about when shit gets wild and you're short staffed.

Oh! Thank you.
That happens more than I wish it did :(

Archie, right? I really appreciate the offer. Both to donate the money and to help out when you can.
Can I at least treat you to coffee to say thanks?

i'd imagine so you have no idea how much i wish i could have some kind of medical experience like angie did, other than just relying on my power but sometimes you gotta do all you can, right? that sounds like it would be great you said your power involves coffee?

Yeah. I feel the same way re: wishing I had medical experience, but I also know that it was never my passion. I'm just doing what I can to help those who DO have that spark.

i sure did. :) I can summon coffee out of nowhere.
Which is a lot tastier than it sounds. Promise.

that's all we can do. that's amazing. can you do different types? can can you shoot it out your fingers?????

I sure can. :)
Feels more like I'm conjuring coffee than shooting it, but yeah.
You're more than welcome to see for yourself.

that's wild? trick shot from across the room!! when are you free?

technically that may be a trick question given all my projects, but I'm at the clinic right now. :)

If you're in De Chima, just swing by whenever.

cool, i'll hit you up later all your projects? you better not end up in your own clinic for exhaustion

I won't, I promise.

I'm actually trying to cut down said projects! Just so I can get back to journalism and maybe being in the clinic once or twice a week, as opposed to what feels like every day.

good lass i did that recently going from having 0 free time to at least 1 and a half free times is pretty nice i think the ideal free time is enough for you to have a hobby of your choosing

Lol god, I don't think I have a hobby outside of marathoning TV . . . Which is probably a sign in and of itself :')

Thanks, Archie.

same, honestly. it's alright. you gonna be okay about angie being ported out?

Yeah, I think so. :(
I miss her a lot, but we worked with a couple of native doctors, and they'll pick up the slack.

On a more personal note, it's always hard when someone leaves.
We know it's random. It just never gets /easier/, either.

me too. i'm glad you guys managed to work together so harmoniously though-- i'm sure everyone who visits the clinic appreciates it. it feels like something that should get easier as well, doesn't it?

Thanks. that means a lot to hear.

Right! You'd think that with how often people come and go, it would at least start to feel normal.
But it never does.

it's a good thing. in a weird way. that no matter how many losses we have to endure, our hearts never harden to other people.

Deep.
But also completely true. We still care a lot for each other, and as long as we don't lose sight of that... I think we'll be alright in the end.

you've no idea how much green it took me to reach that conclusion do you want a resume or summary of how my healing stuff works for this?
