.002 Video/Text

VIDEO:

[Nearly three weeks he’s spent in Luceti, and in that time, the war back home has been a constant concern on his mind. While his roles here may not matter, it’s a mentality he can’t entirely escape. Especially considering just how many from his world are here. So, with a Kazekage mentality, he opens his journal and fiddles with it until he’s figured out the video selection. Maybe one day he'll realize there's a filter option.]

To those of you who recognize me as Kazekage, I would like to address you.

[And he’ll pause for just a moment.]

I’m aware that our memories from home vary, but I believe everyone is familiar with the war that the Shinobi Alliance was currently engaged in. I cannot say that have been victorious yet, but I have faith in our abilities and our strength.

If you are curious as to the details I have before I arrived here, I will answer any questions I can. But I did want to share one thing with everyone here.

The past Hokage have arrived to support our efforts in battle, and I had the privilege of hearing the Shodai Hokage. He made a plea to all of us to bring his dreams to fruition, to bring together our pain, our sufferings, and our discouragement, to show him his dream of a time when all shinobi cooperate with each other, where their hearts are together regardless of country.

It was a proud moment when we could show him that dream come true.

I would like to believe that those effects, the promises and alliances made in such a time of trial and tribulation will not end when the threat does. And while we are far from home and that war now, as Kazekage, as Gaara of the Desert, as your friend and ally, I still hold to those beliefs and while I am here, I will protect and help in any way I am capable.

For the weeks, months, and years that have passed for some of you here, as distant a memory as the war may be in your thoughts, keep the promises and hope of it close to you.

TEXT:
[Having taken care of Kazekage business, he still has one more role he feels he needs to fulfill. That of a worried little brother with a sick sister. So a few moments after his speech, he adds a written note for everyone.]

For anyone with the knowledge, I would appreciate any information regarding the care of the physically ill. Methods, medications, proper foods.

Also, for possible future reference, how to properly deal with cuts and minor injuries that don’t require a medic nin or use of …white magic.

[Given he's not extending any sort of invitation for her to do any hands-on medical diagnosis or treatment... well. Allies they may be, but they're still from separate villages. She nods.]

If nothing else, I can advise you on treating the symptoms, then. It probably won't cure the underlying illness, but at least the patient can be more comfortable.

Feed her as much as she'll eat -- liquids are the most important. Try chicken or beef broth if she'll take it. If she's bundled, let her keep bundling.

Is she showing any respiratory or sinus symptoms? Coughing, sneezing, congestion, anything like that?

Well, that's good. Does she seem to be running a fever?

[Not everyone flushes with fever, after all.]
medicalpunch: (Neutral)

It would indicate some additional treatment, and some things to watch out for. But nothing I've told you is inappropriate for fever.

You're welcome. Let me know when she starts feeling better, all right?

... Or if she starts feeling worse. [At some point Gaara will not be a sufficient nursemaid.]

[Ah hah he finally admits it. Not that she hasn't figured it out long since, but still.]

Pass along my well wishes to her too, if you will. I hope she feels better soon.
