Logfile from Nerak.

[Healer Chat] Kiriya is at the Ista Hold Cove, if you want to RP.

[Healer Chat] Kiriya: Or the docks, if anyone wants to. *looking for new RP places.*

You find yourself swimming in the hold cove.

Nerak walks into the cove adn sees Kiriya and Saadni here. "Hello you two! How are you today? How's the water?" She sits just at the edge of hte cove - in hte shallowest part of the water. She doesnt' know how to swim well, and doesn't want the others to know she can't swim.. so she sits in the shallow area.

Saadni, unaware that she was with company, jerks her head up and eyes Nerak -- then Kiriya -- for a moment. "Ahh.. the water's fine." She settles something of a sad smile towards the two other Healers, and walks out of the water, only a tad bit uncomfortable in the.. relatively brief swimsuit she's wearing.

"G'day, Saa, Ner," chirps Kiriya as she splashes her way into the water. Apparently someone's been loosed from chores early. "Water's great, I see!" Flop-splash, and Kiriya sends sprays of water all around her as body comes into contact with sea.

Nerak "Feels nice!" She says, but does not go any deeper in the water. She, too, has on a swim suit, but it is as modest as she is... She shies away as Kiriya splases into the water. "Yeah, I finished my shift at the infirmary, and heard this was a good place to swim, so I came here..."

Saadni shifts, cautiously arranging herself, glowering down for a moment, before shifting. Black hair, wet, clings to her face, until she swipes it back into some semblance of a runner's twist - merely listening, for the moment.

Kiriya giggles. "I had the late-night one. There was a fella came in with a beer bottle shoved in a most... ah... strange bodily orifice." Shudder. "That particular shift does bring in the most interesting cases."

Nerak giggles, "Believe it or not, I've seen that too... the late night shift certainly is ... interesting!" She splashes her legs around the water, trying not to look uncomfortable in the water…

"It can be grotesque. It can be funny in a morbid, sick way. But it's interesting," Kiriya replies. "After my four or five Turns as a healer, I think I've almost seen everything." Snorting, Kiriya wades a little further out, her long braid floating out behind her.

Saadni stares from Nerak to Kiriya. "Grotesque is quite right," she murmurs, mostly to herself. "Very morbid humor." Did she actually say something? When she's in one of her moods? Amazing.

Nerak moves her arms around in the water next to her as she sits in the shallow area, "I know, I've seen some gross things too. I have to admit, some are pretty stupid as well, like when the men are trying to impress a woman, and fail miserably. Some, I'll have to admit, have been funny, and hard to keep a straight face!" she chuckles and looks between Saadni and Kiriya, "I've been a healer 5 turns, Kiri, so you have too. You started here before me... remember?"

Kiriya hrms. "Five turns... then that makes me about six Turns a healer. Which is too long, in my opinion. Shardit, that Harper I'm watching better pop soon or I'm going to be an apprentice for all eternity." Twitch. Twitch. "I mean, honestly, it's a pain."

Saadni blinks at Kiriya. "Harper.. popping?" She looks just vaguely curious. She can't reminisce -- hasn't been around for not nearly as long as the others, so she just flicks at a vtol that's wandering a bit too close.

Nerak chuckles, "Don't be so impatient, Kiri. It'll happen soon enough! I just happened to do something that didn't take 9 months to culminate!" and laughs. "Cabinets are much easier to make, and the woodcrafters were so nice to put it as a priority for me. I think they rushed it on because I was there everyday making sure they were doing it correctly!" she laughs. "I think they were tired of seeing me there, watching them work!"

"Nerak, I had to deal with a pregnancy /before/ that too... the birth of the child of Iona, Seacliffs Headwoman. Faranth, I miss that woman. And I'm doing midwifery, Nerak, so it's bound to be a nine-month or longer project. For me, it's taken more than two Turns to do," Kiriya explains. "You are the quickest-promoted journeyman I've seen in my entire life here at the Hall."

Saadni pauses, blinking from Nerak to Kiriya and back again, before shaking her head lightly, and just deciding to sit and listen, for the time being.

Nerak grins proudly, "Really? I didn't know that... I figured it was just the way it happened. I guess I do remember the earlier pregnancy too, weren't there problems with her pregnancy?" she asks her friend. She then turns to Saadni, "Have you chosen a specialty yet? Do any of them pique your interest? I'm trying to do both Pediatrics and bonehealing, since they go so well together!" she laughs.

"Yes. Very similar problems between Iona and the woman I'm caring for right now. Except the cause of this condition is completely unknown, and there's such a myriad of symptoms that I can't place a name to it yet. I'm going to need plenty of help." Kiriya sighs. "Perhaps I took on a project too complicated, but I'm going to have to finish.

Saadni chuckles at Nerak. "I'm thinking about mindhealing," she offers. "I'm not too sure. Mindhealing or herbalry, perhaps.." One eyebrow furrows lightly. "Hmm. I'm just.. not sure." Yeah. And she returns to.. being quiet.

[OOC:] Nerak says "rats, I return from idling to find my RP partners asleep..."
