video

[battlefieldbrat]

[the video starts with the camera pointed at the ground, before slowly panning up with the slightly unsteady hand of someone who isn't used to such technology. the pan up reveals a modest stone building, a yard fenced in by nice tall metal fences, and...dogs. they're playing in the yard so it's a little hard to count, but there must be twelve or fifteen of them. small dogs, large dogs, if you can imagine a dog one of them is probably cavorting around the yard. after simply observing the dogs for a moment, the handler of the phone begins to speak.]


As you can see, since Aldrip expanded there's been a noted increase in stray dogs.

[the camera wobbles as a particularly enthusiastic dog jumps on kakashi, showing off how short he is and also possibly how strong he is as he easily pushes the dog away.]

I've been housing and feeding all I can but I'm running out of room. Any responsible individuals who might like to care for a dog themselves can feel free to come by...I'll even send you off with some dog food.

[he fumbles with the phone a bit before there's a DING and the address of kakashi's house appears on the bottom of the screen. god knows how he figured out how to do THAT.]

That's all.

[and the video ends abruptly. not one for beating around the bush, this kid.]

I would imagine so. When real healers aren't part of an army, the rate of casualties is horrific. [She has seen that from some of the enemies she fought as part of Sigurd's army.] I hope that initiative is taken up with a will--war is a terrible thing, but it can be made less so.

[Not by ,i>much, but if one more person gets to return to their family alive, it makes a difference.]

I do my best to help people here stay well and recover well after an emergency. [She smiles.] And if you want to improve your first-aid skills, well, I'm always willing to teach someone.

[and then recruit them to the arztenritter, although young Kakashi seems like he has plenty on his plate with the doggos.]

[battlefieldbrat]

I think we're all glad to be in your capable hands.

[kakashi certainly appreciates how she took care of his wounds when he first arrived.]

It couldn't hurt to learn more first aid. But I wouldn't want to cut into your busy schedule.

[baldrshand]

Don't worry about that. I like teaching people, and the more of us know how to do first aid, the less of a strain it is when emergencies happen.
