Announcement and Refugee Hosting in The Gym, Friday Evening

The P.A. crackles to life.

"We shall be opening our doors to the poor, powerless townsfolk. They are to gather in the gym. Volunteers to help organize blankets, bedding, food, and etcetera would be very welcome."

Smith then walks down to the gym, props open the doors, and walks away. This was going to be a mess, and he felt ignoring it would be the best method to deal with it, rather than letting his head explode. Again.

[ooc: Huzzah! Townies can come to this post for their safety and warmth! Screening is disabled! Students and Teachers are welcome to organize something... but as it's an emergency, we hath not actually organized the refugee effort! Organize! Be Swift! But above all, interact and have fun!]

"Very prepared," Fraser compliments. "You're working at the town clinic or the school clinic?"

"Town clinic," Tommy said. "It specializes in emergency care and I'm certified for that so..." Tommy shrugged, indicating it was a reasonable enough port in a storm.

"Sounds like the town clinic hired quite the capable help," Fraser says, nodding. "And you can prevent fires in your spare time."

"I could if this town had anything even close to a hose, ladder, and truck," Tommy said. "What the hell are they going to do if somebody blows up their house tonight because they were too stupid with candles and gasoline? Ask a wizard to fix it?"

Fraser blinks. "I...wasn't aware there were wizards in town. Vampires? Yes. Unusually colored people? Yes. Wizards? No."

"Just my point," Tommy said. "If something goes up here like a Roman candle, think a species that looks at us like Snickers bars is going to run in and help? Hell, they'd probably wait until we were just the right level of done and leave a tip for the chef."

"Perhaps," Fraser says, "after this storm, you could lobby whomever takes control of the town to provide equipment for a small fire department? I'd be willing to speak on your behalf because I believe fire safety is a top priority."

"Think I'd have any luck?" Tommy asked. "We've got room at the clinic. Could park a truck out there. I know the streets are made of gummi bears or whatever twee fucking thing they built this town out of, but there's gotta be a way we can get a ladder and hose going."

"I think you might," Fraser says, nodding. "It's unbelievable to me that there's no fire prevention unit in town already. I don't think even the Mayor could potentially stop you from starting your own unit. And I bet the citizens would be thankful to know it's there in case of emergency."

"If I got a volunteer unit together, think you'd be up for it?" Tommy asked.

"I think I would," Fraser says and nods. "Fire safety is important even in small towns such as this."

"Great," Tommy said. "They teach you much about fire fighting with the mountie job or is it all getting chicks off train tracks and stopping people from poaching bears?"

"I was never a firefighter in Canada, no, but I'm well versed on the rules and regulations of fire prevention," Fraser says. "Barring that, I'll learn. And, I don't believe I've ever had to remove a female from a train's tracks."

"In this town I'm surprised it doesn't happen every Wednesday, with repeats Sunday night for those who missed it the first time," Tommy said. "Okay, whatever you don't know I can teach you. I assume you know the basics of CPR and all that life-saving crap, or does universal healthcare trump that?"

"I do know CPR and First Aid," Fraser replies. "That much won't have to be taught."

"Good," Tommy said. "I'll contact my chief back home. See if he knows anybody in the area who can spare us a couple of ~~NPC~~ men."
