[ 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.

( Sansa exhales heavily and rubs at her temples. Two intelligent men should be able to work things out among themselves but if not, she supposes she can mediate on behalf of everyone else. She has to remind herself that she, too, has been guilty of this at times. )

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?

[ He takes a moment to consider these words, but then nods. ]

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?

[theladyofwinterfell]

I believe so. We are friends outside of our doctor-patient relationship and I think he'll be willing to give it a try, at least. If it doesn't work, we'll have done our best.

( 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. )

[beholding_archivist]

Then... Please let me know if you can reach him.

[ No, he doesn't like any of this either. ]

[theladyofwinterfell]

I shall. You'll hear more from me, Jon, I promise. I won't leave things unsettled if I can possibly help it.

Thank you, Sansa.
