[ The video turns on to reveal your local Archivist, deep scowl on his perpetually tired face, an already very used looking pencil behind his ear and a cigarette between his fingers. Yes, that particular habit is getting worse, but judging by the open sky above him he's at least not taking it inside.
But it's the scowl that mainly addresses the network. ]
Very well. Might as well inform you all that the hospital staff has been reduced to one. I am no trained professional, have no noteworthy abilities that qualify me for the task, but I... I will do what I can should the need arise. I won't always be at the hospital, so you will have to contact me should you need anything- And I ask of everyone to abstain from needlessly reckless endeavors more likely to getting yourself hurt than resulting in any progress. I... I just-
[ He pauses, takes one deep breath and closes his eyes. ]
... I can't split myself in two.
I'm sorry.

Left.
[ Each word punctuated tiredly with the cigarette in his hand. ]
Look..... We had an argument. He left.
But he.... he said he would still take care of you. As for everyone else...
[ Another small gesture, and a defeated shrug. He’s sorry. ]

( Sansa has been in fights with people that have seemed irreparable, Arya notably, but she thinks there's little that is irreparable when people need to band together to survive. )

[ Just as he isn't fit to be working at the hospital. ]
I... I dislike speaking of him in his absence, but... I feel Altair has a couple of issues he needs to be talking through with someone. Someone he trusts. And I don't think it's me. But seeing how easily he has abandoned this place over a few... Hurt feelings... That's just not the work ethics that helps us keep a functional hospital.
[ And this is him merely addressing the practical issues. If this were an issue with one of his assistants, he would suggest them to be moved to a different department. But he isn't Altair's boss. And it has been him that has been hoping to leave the hospital and leave it in more capable hands than his own. ]

Well I will mediate it, then. There's no reason the two of you shouldn't be able to sit down with a neutral party and work out what to do. I'll talk to him after we talk and then we'll all sit down together, all right?
no subject
I'm not opposed to that offer.
In fact... I believe a mediator may not be a bad idea in this case. Do you believe you can bring Altair to the table?

( Sansa thinks she's skilled enough at reading people and negotiating that some compromise can be reached but if not, perhaps time will heal some wounds. )
no subject
[ No, he doesn't like any of this either. ]
