Who: John + Students
Where: Clinic
When: Day 199, 7AM

[Today's lesson is injections and intravenous fluids. The lecture was a rousing affair (no, come on) with lots of examples on when you may need either, where it is best to inject, and what kind of solutions or medications could be injected depending on a variety of more mundane situations along with the proper mixtures for them. John also got distracted for a minute or two talking about discrete injection shots for drug addicts, oops. When it is time for the practical portion, there are a few options: You can try injecting water with either a needle or an IV into an orange, one of these, or an actual person. The last one has to be done under John's watch per his warning which was said in his only for special occasions, no arguments or questions, tone. Have fun with your stabs, kids!]

[Or it can be study hall, and John will drill the particularly masochistic on how to deal with absurd but not too absurd for Imeeji injuries and how they would respond to them.]

[He diligently takes notes, even if he's yawning a few times throughout the lecture - I'm so sorry. He does perk up at the practical part of the lesson, however.]

Ohh, we get actual equipment this time?

[Nice!!]

[theyregooddogs]

No point in teaching if you don't know what to do.

[bondsofsuffering]

Practical application's important, too!

I want to try on the fake arm!

[theyregooddogs]

All yours. It's not bad, all things considered.

[we_meet_again]

[after class, he can be found holding the practice arm in such a way that it looks suspiciously like he wants to high-five someone....]

[theyregooddogs]

Don't play with it.

[not sharp, more resigned; he absolutely expected this]

[we_meet_again]

[ puts it down :( ]

I'm just gonna, uh. practice.

[theyregooddogs]

Mm, try to focus.

[Here's an unusual face to see. Only she shows up at the clinic late –– really, really late, as in right when the class has ended. She wanders the setup, poking at a machine here and nudging an IV catheter stand with her foot there, letting it roll across the floor a little.

Then squishing the fluid bag :|aa weeeeiiiirrd.]

[theyregooddogs]

Don't touch anything.

[purrrnicious]

[Stares at him a moment with the bag in her hand. Then releases it.

With a tiny pinprick from her claws oops, so there's a little leak.]

Hey. How do I amputate a limb?

[theyregooddogs]

[picking it up and bringing it to a sink]

You ask someone else to do it and have a sensitIV and/or pep around.

[After taking copious amount of notes for this class]

Any tips for those that don't bleed normal blood? Or vampires, since we seem to be amassing a flock of those.

[theyregooddogs]

Easiest answer is that as long as they bleed— That is, their circulatory system is still functioning, then any of this should be fine. Best answer would be to have them all tested to make sure there isn't anything that would respond too strongly to any basic solutions.

I've got the equipment for blood analysis if you're up for learning how to use it. Otherwise, it'll take a few days, depending on how many samples there are.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Teaching someone to fish is always better, right?

What would you want for compensation?

[theyregooddogs]

Absolute control over the producers and a week's vacation. Barring that, coffee whenever private lessons start.

[justfuckingtryit]

[He's there, of course, though he shows up with a crutch, and he sits with his leg out in front of him, awkward, under the desk while John lectures.]

[His notes don't suffer, though, and he snags an orange to inject.]

[theyregooddogs]

[obviously looking at his leg then back to him]

Still?

[justfuckingtryit]

Still.

[theyregooddogs]

Do you want me to have another look? Or are you just enjoying friction burns now?

[shutthefoxup]

[This is fine. I'm fine. It's f i n e.]

[theyregooddogs]

You know where the sink is. Or leave if you want to.

[shutthefoxup]

I'm good, I've got this. Just.......thinking.

[theyregooddogs]

Right . . .

[nihilmancy]

[Belatedly, she was indeed here, carefully taking notes.]
