I decided at New Year's that I'm going to make this a good year. I have a lot of stuff that I need to do and deal with, and a lot of stuff that I just WANT to do, aside from that. So! First thing's first:

Does anybody have really awesome healing powers? Or do you know anybody with really awesome healing powers?

I don't know if I can actually fix what I'd like fixed. I mean, I knew a great healer, but he couldn't do anything. It might be a lost cause, but I'll try again.

(I have a dead hand, by the way. That's what it is.)

Also, since there's been another wave: Hello, new people! My name's Laurie. I hope you're having an okay time.

haven't met any healers so far. but i could make you a robot hand.

[fridgeflower]

Wow. That sounds interesting, but also maybe a little scary. I mean, I still have the hand. I'm not sure about having it cut off.

But I can keep it in mind?

[microbrobotics]

yeah, totally. i mean i have to get a new lab set up anyway so it's not like i could build anything for a while yet.

[ oh hello there. ]

Have you tried to ask the doctors here? Since they have nanites and... all sort of technology, it seems.

[fridgeflower]

[ oh hay. ]

Oh! Ken. Hi.

Um... I haven't, really. I guess I thought superpowers would be more likely to be the answer, but that's a good point. I've heard a little bit about the nanites, but not a whole lot. Maybe that's a little more unsettling to me?

It's probably worth looking into, though, if nothing else works out.

The nanites are a bit... upsetting. But if they really do bring people back from being dead, I mean- if such technology exists here, maybe something can be done about your hand.

In case you don't find a healer, that is.

[inmyothertights]

What do you need fixed?

[fridgeflower]

A guy I knew basically instantaneously decayed organic matter if he touched it, and he grabbed my hand on M-day.

Guess who still had his powers.

[inmyothertights]

[Way to go, this makes him feel extra responsible for it.]

I'm not a healer, but I can try to fix it anyway.

[bassriff]

yeesh, that blows. mine just works on me, sorry

[fridgeflower]

That's all right. No worries.

[hands4healing]

I'm a healer...I'm not sure how much I could help, but I could try.

[Winry doesn't want to think on how much this might hurt her.]

And if it doesn't work, I'm an automail engineer.

[fridgeflower]

Is that like a robot hand, because I've gotten that offer, too.

The healing, though... Um. I've spoken to people before who are healers, but the injuries that they heal adversely affect them. I don't know if that's a rule here, but... I guess I'm asking how you're powers work.

[hostage]

I can fix it

[fridgeflower]

Oh. I think we talked a long time ago, right?

You said it would hurt you.

Laurie?

[fridgeflower]

[ Aw, Sasha, don't look that way. ]

Yyyyes?

[khajidont]

I know you probably know this already but I'm gonna feel like a terrible friend if I don't actually SAY it (figuratively)

Be careful okay? Getting it healed up would be awesome. Having it hurt not so much

text

[fridgeflower]

Yeah. Thanks.

I'm trying to ask the right questions to make sure it's safe for everybody beforehand (haha. hand.), so it should work out okay one way or another.

[the text replies will be coming at conspicuously long intervals, because Jonathan's still working on getting his typing speed up with these gigantic bara hands and not ever having texted before coming here, but he's giving it a go anyway. he's been making it a policy to try and reply in kind on text posts, if only to force himself to practice more.]

I'm certain that you'll be able to make this into a very enjoyable year indeed with that sort of spirit. Hopefully you'll be able to check off more of your goals than I did last year!

[just a little joke about his poor time management skills. he always seems to bite off more than he can chew.]

Speaking of which, I'm glad that you've received so many offers of help already! If none of them manage to repair your hand, which I hope isn't the case, I'd also be willing to see if my powers could perhaps help.

[fridgeflower]

[ We believe in you, Jonathan! ]

Thank you! For the encouragement and the offer, of course. Hopefully, something will work before I have to search any more desperately.

Do you heal, then?

[ well, she's supposed to be a healer, but she was a bit shitty at it. besides, she was a healer of Space, she's pretty sure, and laurie is very probably not Space. ]

im afraid the most i can personally offer is limited by current medical knowledge
but prosthetics may be an option if others are ineffective

[ if you need someone to amputate though, she's your girl. ]

Re: text.

[fridgeflower]

Yeah, I've gotten some pretty interesting offers on that front. I can pick from a robot or an automail arm, if nothing else does the trick.

[ She's joking, though. She does not want her hand cut off. That'd be a bummer. ]

[gabriel_gray]

I don't have any healing powers, but actually I've been looking for someone who can do it too. I've been helping a friend with his abilities, and getting burned for my efforts. If you find anyone, could you let me know?

[ So he can kill them, sorry. ]

text;

[fridgeflower]

Oh. Sure?

Actually, the people who have offered so far ought to have their names listed by their replies. You can probably message them privately, if you'd like. Or you can talk to them here. I don't mind.
