All in all, it's been a pretty tough month, so the Life Support team are on hand for a bit of TLC. The usual circle of chairs is set out in a corner.

There's a selection of cakes and pastries on the table, to meet all dietary requirements, and plenty of hot and cold drinks. The smell of cake wafts across the bar. And as always, there's a big poster up on the wall:

LIFE SUPPORT
OPEN TO ALL

Do you need someone to talk to about problems or recent events here or at home? Just want some free food, or company? Come join us!

[ooc: Treat like a party post, threadhopping is encouraged! All tags will be picked up by at least one of the Life Support team. Open until the next one in approx. one month!]

"Everywhere smells of cake today."

It's not even slightly a complaint.

[guppy_sandhu]

"You should eat the cake." Guppy says sagely. "And afterwards come back with us for Brooke's birthday party."

He takes a cake. "How are you?"

[street_sparrow]

"Same old, same old. It's Brooke's birthday?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"Yep, bonfire night. Doesn't seem a year." Guppy smiles slightly. "We should gather up Enzo as well in a bit, since he helped look after the kids when she was born."

[street_sparrow]

"Were you at his graduation party?" He grins. "Well, graduation and engagement."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Yeah, great to have some good news around here." Guppy says.

"I haven't managed to thank you yet for your help in the zombie attack - so thank you."

[street_sparrow]

"You're welcome. It was the least I could do."

[guppy_sandhu]

"We had a good team." Guppy says, nodding. "And you know how to use the skin fuser now, in an emergency. Probably should be supervised if possible."

[street_sparrow]

"Maybe I can try it on something minor first?" he suggests. "Not an emergency."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Sure." Guppy nods. "You just have to not over or underdo it."

[street_sparrow]

Gavroche nods seriously.

"...wait, you can overdo it?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"You're looking at a guy who accidentally used the bone fuser and fused his own finger while holding onto the patient." Guppy says.

[street_sparrow]

"...ouch." He eyes Guppy's fingers. "Could you undo it?"

There's a rather uncomfortable looking Imperial seated in the chair nearest the wall. He's drinking a cup of tea as his eyes shift from side to side.

[guppy_sandhu]

"Hi Caius, welcome to Life Support." Guppy says.

[oldsugartooth]

"Right," Caius says. "This is rather different than what I was expecting."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Yeah, it's a bit q-word today." Guppy says. "What were you expecting?"

[oldsugartooth]

"I'm not sure," Caius says. "I wasn't expecting cake."

[guppy_sandhu]

"It's my wife's Spanish Inquisition recipe."

[oldsugartooth]

"Well, she has my compliments," Caius says.

[guppy_sandhu]

"I'll pass it on. How are you doing?"

[oldsugartooth]

"Alright," Caius says. "Haven't gone near it again yet. But then, it's only been a couple days."

[guppy_sandhu]

"How regularly do you use?"

[oldsugartooth]

Caius awkwardly runs his hand over his head.

"Well, ah, it's not really the sort of thing I keep track of," he says. "Just, uh, when I can get it."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Are you Bound here?"
