[See Darkleer. See Darkleer without his glasses for once and his hair pulled back into a thick braid! See Darkleer also kind of bleeding somewhat from the arm.]

[Yeah that might be a problem. It seems he's on the beach and dress appropriately for the location, if not the weather. Tight swimming trunks cling to his legs, and what appears to be the bite mark of a shark is on one muscular arm. He doesn't seem much bothered by it- in fact, there's just the occasional wince as he pulls a tooth out. Just one more scar to add to what seems like a collection of them. Also noticeable would be a pendant that seems to be hanging around his throat... Hm.]

I've been meaning to ask this, but my schedule has been rather full up until now.

[Translation: I've been focusing on all my robots like a workaholic freak and trying to hide from weird romance problems.]

However, right now I have a bit of time while I'm working on something on the island. [In the water, more correctly, but details.] Would anyone be interested in learning basic medical skills? For example, how to assist someone who has drowned or how to stop a wound from bleeding.

It's better off to leave complete treatment to a more professional individual, such as our... esteemed head nurse, but skills such as these can help keep a situation from getting worse.

[There's a pause as he inspects his arm, now devoid of any shark teeth. Something seems to just *pop* out from his sylladex and he puts the modified omni-tool onto his good wrist. Don't mind him as he holds it over the bleeding wound and... wow that sure is some automatic healing going on. Technology is great, he loves technology.]

I will be on the island all day so feel free to simply locate me if you are interested. Speaking of the island... [A slight frown.] The pollen up here seems less severe than that down in the city.

Curious.

No, I haven't. That's why I came here to learn how from you. Since back home, we primarily use healing magic for almost every wound.

Alright then. Is there a particular situation you would like to know about? If not, I think it would be good to know cardiopulmonary resuscitation- reviving someone who has been without air for too long, whether because they were underwater or for some other reason.

That would be an excellent idea, we can work with that. Since back home, when people are unconscious, we usually use a spell to revive them.

With how Vatheon can change even its entire landscape, it's always wise to have a back up plan.

[A humanoid robot is popped out from his sylladex. It seems to have a very detailed design- almost as if making every bit of human anatomy stark and apparent. Well, almost. Certain downstairs area are nothing more than Barbie doll smooth because some people in Vatheon need to have decor.]

[It's a bit creepy, almost, but Darkleer has somehow missed that. He simply directs it to lay flat on its back.]

After you've retrieved the party out of the water, you'll want to direct them onto their back and make sure nothing is in their mouth or airway. After that, you'll need to kneel down on the floor besides their shoulders and head.

Taking magic out of the city wouldn't surprise me, especially since I'm certain they know who can and can't cast it.

[He is a bit creeped out by the robot, but takes mental notes of everything Darkleer tells him.]

Once I'm on the floor on my knees, what should I do next?

You know the heel of your hand? That needs to go in the middle of their chest, between the pectorals. Your other hand goes on top of that. You're going to be putting all of your body weight into pushing down to help pump the water out and air in, so you want to make sure that your shoulders are parallel to your hands.

Is that clear?

Yes, I understand very clearly.

[Because again, taking mental notes.]

I'm to assume you want me to test my skills on this robotic doll you've brought out.

If I meant to impress you with my skills, I would have chosen a different robot.

So yes. That is the assumption. Practice does well to prepare you for a real encounter.

[Angelo kneels down by the robot and while he still finds this rather strange, he does as he was instructed to do.]
