Day 311 | Open Broadcast
Who: Rob, anyone
Open: Open
When: Day 311
Where: Everywhere, then Colin's workshop
What: An invitation to learn how to make healing potions.
Format: Will match
Warnings: None?
[So remember that capability the amulets have to broadcast a message to every amulet in the Bastion at once? And remember this guy, who is probably near the bottom of everyone's list on who's most likely to ever use this function? Someone go check if Ibuki made some flying pigs or something, because Rob's making a broadcast here.]
Hey, uh, this is Rob. I've, uh. [A pause, then continuing in a way that's recognizable as someone reading from a script.] So I've been working on teaching myself alchemy using the plants and animals that Paarthurnax has brought in, and I've finally figured out how to make healing potions. I've been thinking that it would probably be a good idea for multiple people to be able to make them, just in case something happens to me or the healers, so I'm wondering if anyone would like to learn how to make them themselves. I wouldn't say it's particularly hard, it just takes some patience and attention to detail. If you're interested in me teaching you, come over to the workshop and bring something to take notes with if you think they'd be helpful.
[A relieved gasp for breath at the end is cut off when Rob ends the broadcast.]
[Sure enough, Rob can be found anxiously waiting outside the workshop. He nods when you walk up.]
You here for the, uh, for the learning about making potions?

no subject
Yeah. That way you know if you've made it right, so that next time you can just do the same things as this time and be confident that those'll work too.
[Though he's not so optimistic as to think she'll be able to make them consistently just yet. Again, attempt at a morale boost.
Rob's broad-shouldered and looks like he could cause some serious damage in a fight, but he hasn't displayed aggressive body language so far, nor does he carry himself like a fighter or remain alert for any danger in his surroundings. The way he reaches behind his back, draws his knife, and offers it to her pommel-first isn't done in the manner of someone who's even considering starting something, but how that set of actions will be interpreted in the current context remains to be seen.]
no subject
[...she tentatively takes it, keeping her eyes on Rob's. Mostly she's projecting a sort of wary disbelief; it seems she's followed the implications. "Do you not understand the danger? You grant me a weapon; you must realize that there may be consequences for announcing vulnerability like this."]
[Not that she seriously intends to follow through on that, but - Old World mentality, you know. This would be unheard-of back there.]
((With amusement, I note that if this'd happened a few IC days later, you would've gotten a much different response.))
no subject
I think it should work, but on the off chance that it doesn't I have some extra healing potions that'll heal the cut, so don't worry.
no subject
[If she tastes battle here, she doesn't know how likely she is to stop herself, even with the environment's peculiar effect in place. Speaking so easily of it, prompting her to strike...by her reckoning, it is unwise of both of you.]
[So, despite some inner protest, she's handing the knife back to Rob. And taking a couple steps back after that.]
[Headshake.]
