PRESCOTT BLOOD DRIVE

GIVE US YOUR BLOOD
Prescott Fire Station is holding a blood drive! Anyone in the Quad in the giving spirit is invited to drop by and drop off a pint. Please only donate your own blood, and straight from the source—dusty mason jars full of mystery blood will not be accepted at this time.

Make sure to stick around post-donation; Arlo Rattray is cooking up vegan pancakes shaped like blood drops and snowmen to help replenish that blood they just sucked out of you. For anyone who doesn't like breakfast there's also a couple packs of peanut butter Oreos, but they're not thematic or anything so they're not fun.
VOLUNTEER SPOTS
After donating, Quaid starts to feel woozy and nearly hits the floor—but they're caught by [RESPONDER (or trainee) B].

Around the pancake table, [VOLUNTEER C] knocks a bottle of maple syrup off the counter and gets stuck washing dishes as penitence—and holy shit, there are a LOT of dishes.

Edgar, meanwhile, gets sent to a cot to lie down for a few minutes and winds up taking an impromptu three-hour nap. Oh, god, what time is it, where are they, what is their name?

VIBES: Court

[personal profile] castnet 2024-12-11 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
This one is stupid excited to get to actively use her skills without someone needing to be saved from death, so Court is in a wonderfully bouncy mood today. She's sans sling and is rather certain it's for good at this point unless she somehow reinjures herself which is always possible

Thinks herself a damn good stick and is willing to make this competitive over who can use a not-baby gauge needle to hurt the least (even though this is completely subjective unless someone truly wants to get stuck twice to settle this, lol)

VIBES: Niko

[personal profile] trustmeimadoctor 2024-12-11 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Niko is here, he's a normal (for him) amount of sleep-deprived, and he's happy to be doing something where life isn't hanging in the balance. He's great at doing blood draws, and his usual schtick is to distract people with jokes or yapping so that they don't notice when the needles go in.

He also donates blood and only gets a little woozy. He doesn't faint but he probably shouldn't be poking anyone else for a few minutes. and this happens.

EDIT: I guess I lied.

VIBES : Nat

[personal profile] malting 2024-12-11 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Nat is there and in very (O) positive spirits. She loves to be helpful and give blood and used to compete with herself to see how fast she could pump it out any time she went to donate before (obviously this is extremely ill advised). She will be trying to beat her 6 minute record and likely eat as close to her weight in pancakes as would be polite and not abusing pancake resources for others.

She gets a little woozy, but nothing pancakes can't solve.

Mud is here for the food. But if he has to get his blood taken out to get it then so fuckin' be it. You probably don't want it, but he'll be a cheap as fuck date later if you do.

VIBES: Quaid

[personal profile] quaid 2024-12-11 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Totally forgot the blood drive was occurring and was bringing over some smoked meat to Prescott when Quaid got caught up in the, ahem, festivities.

He isn't a fan of needles and doesn't want to outwardly admit he's a grown ass man with such a childish aversion, so if someone were to railroad him with "hey are you here to give blood!?" he would swallow his fears and solemnly state yes. And then promptly almost faint, afterwards, because obviously still preferable to admitting you're icked out by needles.

VIBES: Arlo

[personal profile] halligan 2024-12-11 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Arlo loves community shit. Arlo loves to Contribute. Arlo loves to cook for loads of people.

He's on the first shift of poking y'all with needles—distracting nervous nellies with stories about the stupidest ways he injured himself growing up in a junkyard—so he can move over to the pancakes, which get more creative in shape as the day wears on (18). Would you like a horse? A house? A car? A wrench? A bomb? An orange? Whatever he makes you, he's doing it in an apron fashioned from hi-vis vests and a blaze orange t-shirt that's two sizes too small.

He's among the last to donate his stupid uncommon blood type, gives the bag a secondary label (PROBABLY FOR ARLO), and falls asleep at the kitchen table 1 minute and 14 seconds after swearing he's 'just resting his eyes.'

[personal profile] fixeddown 2024-12-11 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Carter is here! She can drag as many of the container fort as need excuses to be here in her little car. She didn’t exactly frequent blood drives in the past world, but did go to a few to give away her universally accepted blood. So she doesn’t really mind it, nor place a lot of pride in the process. It’s blood. She does, while Reggie is super busy yelling at everyone with a clipboard, simply place a stolen far side mug into the sink to be washed like maybe it was never gone at all.

[personal profile] soliloquacious 2024-12-11 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Blythe likes charity, and he loooooves an excuse to come to Prescott, so of course he'll give blood!! So what if seeing the blood coming out of his veins makes him feel a little nauseous and actually if he looks at the other people around him he feels even worse. This is... not his scene. Someone lead him to the pancake zone please, he needs wrench-shaped sustenance to recover.

VIBES: Gideon

[personal profile] transferswitch 2024-12-11 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Gideon is no longer a great blood donor candidate on account of his tangle with the zombie cougar, and he still has the scars as proof. That's not going to stop him from being overly involved, though. He's bossing people around and organizing anything and anyone that stays near him for too long.

VERY CUTE

Gideon's trying (and possibly failing) to be useful since his blood is all gross now. Angel might faint after getting her blood drawn.

Also I'm finally dipping my toes back in for real and would love to thread.

VIBES: Evening

[personal profile] malarkeys 2024-12-11 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
There’s something kind of romantic about giving blood, and Evening is here for it. She’s just not very good at it. She tries to be all hot and vampiric victim about this but ends up just actually feeling miserable and staring up at the ceiling after she is done donating for like five minutes. It’s fine give her a sec to maintain an ethereal visage.
