[ Those who tune in will be greeted to seeing Cid and Zelda sitting next to each other. With a small wave, Cid will go first. ]
Well, things have been quite the mess as of late, hasn't it? Fortunately, Zelda and I have started a little venture that may be of great benefit to everyone.
[ Cid is going to let Zelda start, so he'll move the camera so that she's the focus. With the camera turned to her, Zelda offers a wave and a smile herself. ]
Last week, I acquired a potion recipe for a remedy that temporarily alleviates the "ailment" which many of us have recently become afflicted with. This remedy suppresses the negative effects of the ailment for a few days, allowing for close collaboration between people who would normally trigger an adverse reaction in one another.
[ Cid briefly pops onto the screen with a wide grin. ]
And it works!
[ He'll then grab Zelda's hand and make a show of waving it around, as if in celebration… When really it's another clue as to what this "remedy" is as their insignias are fully visible and glowing ominously. ]
Now typically, each dose of the remedy must be tailored to the individual taking it, necessitating different ingredients for different people. As you might guess, they tend to be costly. But after some careful testing and adjustments, my crew and I are able to reliably recreate the remedy without needing to adjust the recipe each time.
[ And she looks very pleased with this accomplishment. (Never mind the fact that she has to use her sealing power to enchant each dose.) ]
To help Zelda distribute these remedies, I've offered my crew's services to deliver them to specific locations for easier unloading.
[ Read: not in major ports where they would be scrutinized. ]
However, should there be any who have grown tired of the tension in the major cities and would like a bit of a "getaway," there are a few distant islands that I can recommend. Private, out of the way—perfect for those who may want to spend a few days away from it all. Perhaps even for a moonlight tryst?
[ A playful wink because yes, he's talking to you special couples who are suffering the worst of this whole stupid insignia debacle. Although not said outright, instead of just recommending, the Hideaway crew will ferry those interested for a small extra fee, information that can be discussed upon contact.
At the words "moonlight tryst," Zelda blushes. That may have been one of the methods used in testing the efficacy of different versions of the remedy. She quietly clears her throat before going on. ]
Please bear in mind this remedy has a nasty drawback that we are yet unable to mitigate: once it wears off, you will experience the delayed effects of the ailment in full all at once. The severity of the pain is directly proportional to the proximity and duration of contact with the person who would normally trigger an adverse reaction in those suffering this ailment.
[ Translation: the closer you are to someone and the longer you spend with them, the more it’s going to hurt when the potion wears off. ]
I recommend using these remedies only in moderation.
Now we only have so much supply and so many hands, so it's best if word doesn't spread too far or fast.
[ In other words, keep it on the down low, guys, they don't need enforcers from either side getting onto them. ]
But if you have any questions or concerns, you're welcome to bring them up here.
[ OOC: This is a joint network post between Cid and Zelda advertising Zelda's special potions that will help counter the effects of the insignia. Cid is partnering up to help deliver the potions in secluded areas away from watchful eyes while also offering a type of ferry service for those from different Armadas who want a safe, private place to meet up (especially couples). Both will be able to respond, but depending on the topic only one will if it's focused on their part of the operation. ]

[He just wants to help out where he can. Chopper figures the potions would be similar enough to making medicines, at least.]

And I do not believe we've met before.
[And he would certainly have remembered a...

Well he's not sure what Chopper is but he's not going to assume or treat him any differently.]

[The tiny reindeer gives a wave, introducing himself.]

Are you considered a medic or a healer?

[So, he wants to help where he can. He could be useful. He's sure there might be others who are also trying to help as well. That there are other healers or medics.]

[Ignore that he is....the only actual doctor. Chopper is used to that. To take on that responsibility. Even if the others might know some basics of first aid, or some medication seems simple enough.]
I've learned to be careful. To make sure that something isn't poisonous. That's why I want to check about the local medications and diseases here.
no subject
Not making something poisonous would be important.
[A wry chuckle.]
I suppose they go hand in hand in some ways. Do you know how to make poisons or just know of them in as much to treat them?

[A low hum.]
If we ever come across any useful information, I'll be sure to pass it along.
no subject
[He is used to working with others, given his mentors' teaching him medicine back home. And his crew. So Chopper figures working together will just benefit everyone more, really. He just wants to learn and help where he can.]
