[Midnight Hotel] October catch-all

Characters: Anyone, everyone.
Date: Month of October, 2015 (2016 in-game).
Location: The Midnight Hotel.
Situation: Catch-all post! Feel free to use this post for anything that happens within the Midnight Hotel during the month, using the subject header to label specific rooms or for specific people. See also the OOC note at the bottom.
Warnings/Rating: Mark your threads if content warnings become applicable, please!

The Hotel clears out this month – what with the weather cooling down, many of the patrons who had been finding respite from the heat no longer need to do so. Windows are kept open and linens are aired. The result is that the Hotel seems roomier and far less bustling, and it’s an opportunity to relax for the staff. Mostly. Somewhat.

Though there are fewer patrons this month than before, there are a number of gang-kedan holding little workshops for the building of spirit houses or little planterboxes. These are primarily for impoverished kedan who can’t afford their own materials (which are provided), but anyone is willing to help out or ask for advice, and donations are welcome! The most notable thing about these little workshops is that they are, quite frequently, being run by kedan from different or even rivalling gangs, working together.

The spider infestation has tapered off, but there’s some new signs in the kitchen stating that the only free ingredients provided by the Hotel are on two very specific shelves in the cupboard and in one of the fridges. (Not including the food cooked by Yuri, or pre-cooked into packages by Anton.) There’s also a sign asking anyone who sees Klaus and Raine in the kitchen together to please alert the Hotel staff, as this will result in a health hazard.

There’s also a very loud and obvious newcomer to the Hotel – someone some might recognise from the network. Rue is loud, brash and always appears in old-style frock-coat, breeches and heels, all brightly coloured and perfectly representing a period-era dandy. He’s also got a taste for massive wide-brimmed hats and facial rouge, and is mostly obvious due to his English accent and outrageous flirting, and the fact he apparently knows Anton. Fortunately, he doesn't spend a significant amount of time around the Hotel, and frequently goes out on the town to explore (and flirt).

Thankfully, she was cooperating without much question. That would make this a lot easier, and Casey soon moved over once they'd prepared a cloth to start wiping up the blood obscuring any injury beneath it. They held the injured man's jaw firmly, dabbing gently while keeping a sharp eye for any possible complications such as splinters or pain reaction to a specific area aside from the site of impact.

"How long has he been unconscious? Since he was hit?" Such a blow could be worry for head injury, but Casey wasn't going to jump to conclusions. First see what outer, physical symptoms could be ascertained while gaining information on the incident. Their hand did stray for a moment to crack open the man's eyelid and judge at his reaction to the light in the room just in case of an immediately obvious internal injury that would necessitate moving him. Head wounds were always tricky business to deal with. "What's his name?"

"He's still conscious," Valdis replied sharply, waving the other kedan away and stepping back herself, so that Casey would have room to work, "But just barely."

"His name is Palton," Valdis' other student replied, wanting to hover but blocked by Valdis.

Valdis watched Casey carefully, slightly nervous about leaving Palton to their care as opposed to taking her student to Raine.

Both good things. Casey was seeing minor reactions to their cleaning but nothing too serious yet; scalp wounds bled a lot, and chances were that Casey had yet to find the actual source. Even if it didn't wake Palton up, there would likely be an automatic twitch or the like to signal it.

"Palton," they said, attention focused on the patient. "Palton, can you hear me? My name is Casey, I'm here to help. I need you to let me know if you can hear me, Palton."

Even if there were no words or anything coherent, judging what stimuli he was still taking in was important. Casey turned their attention to the others briefly to see where they had set themselves after giving them room, then returned attention back to Palton. "What about coherency at the time of the incident? Has it degenerated at all?"

"Not particularly," Valdis replied.

Palton gave a small nod when asked if he could hear and the flinched when Casey hit upon the source of the bleeding. It was only a small cut, but the impact would probably have left a much larger bruise.

"Go back to the Dojo," Valdis ordered her uninjured student, the kedan lingered for a moment longer, but then nodded and headed for the door.

Casey winced in sympathy when the cut was located, then carefully cleaned around the wound as best they could. It was still bleeding and treatment to the site itself wasn't going to be simple. Rather, it would be easier to treat the bandage for now and apply it to the wound. Turning to their kit, Casey pulled out a pad of gauze and some cotton wrapping before going to place it around Palton's head once the medicated pad was affixed. Just some antibiotics to keep infection out while it cleaned.

"Doesn't look like a concussion and the wound isn't too deep," they declared, a tone of thankfulness evident. Shifting to face Valdis, they continued, "He'll need to be watched for the next twenty-four hours but rest and fluids should help. Nothing strenuous or it will probably keep bleeding and not heal at all."
