She's basically lost

[doc_holi]

Characters: Doc Holiday and everyone
When: January 18th-19th
Where: Her own room, 404, or around the apartments
Rating: G/PG
Summary: The Doc is about as settled in as she's going to get, so come bug her or let her come bug you.



This city was crazy. What they were telling her was crazy. She desperately wanted to find out what had happened back home, but she had mostly resigned herself to the fact that she was dead and this was some strange hell she was in. Likely for Beverly.

Or maybe they were all right and she was here just like them until the spirits decided to send her back. But what would she go back to? Would she still just die and lose everything anyway? Holiday sighed.

She can think about that at night when she tried to sleep. For now, she had to focus on getting by from day to day then get to bigger things.

Like Credinta.

"I'd learn to be fluent--I can help you, or Lavi although he tends to be busy, or Okumura-san. It'll help you with at least trying to blend in, if you do try to go into Credinta--and you would much rather blend in, trust me." Have again, a somewhat awkward--but genuine--attempt at a smile.

"I'm sorry none of what I've said so far is all that positive...but it's probably better to get it all out. I CAN tell you we all do try to take care of each other, so if you need something, then ask. Most of us are more than aware we're in this together, and all we can reliably depend on, is each other." Ok, that sounded really really cheesy...

"If you've read the report, I think I'm mentioned in there--I'm one of the healers. I'm also skilled magically, if you believe in it--and if you don't, well, I can still do my thing. In my world, there's no conflict with magic and technology. I have basic first aid knowledge and can assist that way, or I can do healing via my own abilities."

"If you wouldn't mind helping me with some of the Russian, I certainly wouldn't mind it... And don't worry. I'm used to some other situations like this. It may be hard to transition to at first, but I'll be fine. I don't know you guys well, but I'm willing to trust you."

Mostly because she doesn't actually have a choice, but she is being nice about it.

"Really? I'm a doctor where I'm from and I'm not bad with firearms either. I hope I can be of some help around here." She doesn't want to be a free loader.

[azrthmtrnznthos]

"That's good to hear. Have you gotten in touch with Okumura-san yet? He's...similar." Mostly by being a doctor and amazing with firearms. "I think you'll be able to be a help around here, assuming you want to be. It's not...difficult, really."

Have a faint head-tilt, and then Raven switching to Russian. --When did you want to start practicing, or do you want a couple of books, and a time to adjust to being here, first?--

"I have met him and we've talked a bit. He's a nice guy."

... Oh. Well, that threw her off if the blank look on her face isn't anything to go by. Usually she eases into it instead of just slipping in like that... Honestly, that's what Six is there for.

After a blink, she answers. "I... think it's nearly 2:30?" She tried.

[azrthmtrnznthos]

That brought a very small laugh, not unkind. It wasn't quite what Raven had meant, but at least it was a start. She paused, then switched back to English. "How about I get you those books for a refresher, and we can schedule language practice another time?"

[doc_holi]

Holiday smiles. "That sounds good."

[azrthmtrnznthos]

"Alright. I'll see about dropping some off when I can. Did...you have any other questions?" Raven was trying to be social and friendly--she definitely liked the other doctor's willingness to be frank and straightforward. It helped that she sensed no malice or any sense of wariness and a need for concealment. At least, not the kinds that meant Raven was worried---really, she could understand it would take the doc time to get used to things.

[doc_holi]

"I'm sure I do, but I'll ask them as they come to me. Everything's just been... hard to swallow lately."

[azrthmtrnznthos]

Well, that sounded to Raven almost like a polite end to the conversation and request for space. She could understand that want. It was vaguely amusing to her--that since she had lots of space in Nesreca, and time to herself, she sometimes wanted company. "I should let you get back to trying to digest this all then."

Was that a joke? With her deadpan tone it was difficult to tell. "I'm next door in 402 though, if you need anything. I keep odd hours, as well, so feel free to knock, or send a text."

So offering, she started to make her way to the door.
