First Aid - Danger Shop, Friday, Period 5 [Week 6]

The Danger Shop was set up like a waiting room again. Magazines and medical journals, a kids' table with toys and plates of cookies were scattered around the room, all circa 1960. The cookies weren't from 1960. They were real and fresh.

"Symptoms can look a lot alike. How can you tell the difference between a simple illness and something serious? The truth is, it takes years of practice and studying. You don't have time for that yet, so we're going to go through a case study so you can get a feel for what you should be looking for and how you should approach a potential emergency. One at a time, come through to the examination room. It's your choice if you come in. I won't try to force you. While it's not your turn, help yourselves to the reading material and the cookies."

Laaaazy

Read, eat, talk to each other, make out, get into a fist fight. Whatever you feel like.

The examination room was small and there was a patient sitting on the table, looking decidedly uncomfortable. "Welcome to my humble holographic abode." The best thing about the 21st century was all of the new words. They tumbled off the tongue so well.

Who could take you all in a fight.

Before class, after class, in between examinations or even during examinations if you feel compelled to burst in.

~~I'm around overnight and until about 10am EST and then I'll be back in the evening!~~ Plans to stay awake? Please. My brain refuses to comply with such silly things as plans. I'll be back this evening!

Cara Mason

Alex Karev

Alex took a seat in the waiting room and tried not to think about how familiar that felt. He stretched out his legs and closed his eyes, letting the time pass that way.

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III

Hiccup was a bit on the not-so-happy side today, so he was just sitting in his chair, tapping his metal foot on the floor (which was probably pretty annoying) while he stared into space and waited for it to be his turn.

Hiccup perked up a bit, because he quite liked this class, especially when people (even fake people made from light) weren't bleeding everywhere, and looked expectantly at Hawkeye. "What should I do?"

A question sure to fill today's holographic person with endless confidence.

"I'd like to introduce you to Mr Harris." Mr Harris was a balding man in his late 50s who looked fit for his age and had no visible signs of trauma. "Mr Harris, this is Hiccup. Mr Harris has been complaining of chest pains. It could be a problem with his heart, which would be serious, or it could be a case of too much spicy food making his chest burn. Now, without any extensive medical knowledge, you have to make a decision about how serious this might be. What would you do first?"

"I'd ask him if he's been eating spicy food," Hiccup decided, giving Mr Harris a small wave. "Because if he hasn't, then it's probably not causing the problem."

"Mr Harris?" Hawkeye asked.

"Sometimes," Mr Harris admitted. "I add a little Tabasco. My wife boils the blue jeans out of everything, so I need to get some flavor. But this feels like my chest is really tight and I can't always catch my breath."

"So spicy food's a possibility. That doesn't rule out either option, or even an option we haven't thought about. The details aren't important here. No offense, Mr Harris, you're the most important hologram I know."

"None taken."

"What's important is how you're thinking. How you're approaching the problem."

Cassidy

Cassidy was happy to see Hccup and her smile said so as she sat near him and closed her magazine..

"Hello, Hicuup."

Cassidy was always curious about what they would be doing next in this class, so she was very polite and interested when it was her turn to come into the examination room.

"Hello sir," she greeted the patient, before looking at Hawkeye to get filled in on today's problem.

Tara Maclay

Tara found a couple of celebrity magazines and took a seat, looking through them for good gossip and shots of hot guys.

Kate Gregson

Kate was choosing to sit in the waiting room the entire class. Oh, it pained her to slack off, but the professor had called it voluntary and she just had so much to plan for Puck's little birthday get-together in the evening, even after she'd already ~~handwavily~~ spent most of her day baking.

So she'd be sitting here, in her sensible clothes, neatly writing down some further ideas into her notebook.

Rather than sit in one of the chairs provided, Cara paced anxiously, not sure what she was doing in this class. She didn't like being around people in pain. Not one bit.

Cara bit her lip, glancing at the patient in concern. "Are they all right?"
