✪ Lets get down to business! Again and again! ✪ [Text]

A lot has been happening lately, and I apologize for my inability to assist with many issues due to my slow recovery in Spero. A few months ago, Dr. Cuddy was sent home and hasn't, to my knowledge, returned. So, I'll be keeping up with the medical records. I'll be keeping with her format and timing, meaning that I'll be reminding everyone about these medical records every month from now on.

I'd like for everyone to fill out this new form, even if you are planning to not return to Discedo. It's for your own benefit should an emergency happen.

What are medical records?
     The medical records are simple forms filled out by residents to document their medical state and needs such as name, blood type, species, and previous medical history.
     If you are unable to read or write, you may receive assistance filling out a form by stopping by the hospital or contacting me over the network and I'll document things for you.

Why should I fill it out?
     In the state of emergency, a medical record on file can be accessed and with it, can speed up assistance to patients. It's in your best interests to fill the form out truthfully in case you're brought in unconscious or are unable to communicate. Also, if you have a specific medical need or even a rare blood type, medical personnel can keep a look out for supplies available for proper treatment, if needed.

What about my privacy?
     Your medical record will be stored in an undisclosed location and only accessed and shared by medical personnel when needed. These records are not open the the general public. All records filled electronically will be locked until transferred securely.
     Should security of the records be breached, measures will be taken to secure and/or relocate all information as soon as possible. The party responsible for breaching security will be apprehended and harshly dealt with, no exceptions.

How do I update my information?

** Since it has been some time since any records have been updated, I'm asking that everyone please fill out the new form. This way, things will run much more smoothly with how I plan to organize the forms from now on.

Any questions, comments, or concerns are welcome.

Thank you for your time,
Cube

The Form:

((ooc: An organization post to keep track of medical records has been placed at

playmyace. You do not need to do anything OOCLY. It is merely a place to keep medical forms in one place, rather then across character journals. If anyone has any issues with this, please contact me.))

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Eh, one regular feather is fine.

Ah, that's the legends I've heard too. Some of them anyway. I couldn't tell you why I'm different other than that I'm part human as well. Maybe because all the fire logia are red, but my flames can't burn.

Ah... [He can't even process that. So, he'll not comment on it any further.]

That could be it, but there could also be so many things we may not know. Soraoto-san might know something b-but he would most likely not tell without a price a-and I don't trust him for anything at the moment. [Still, a near-god-like demon like Soraoto should know something more then the average person does about phoenixes]

At least Marco-san can have the best of both worlds, eh?

Understood. I'll ask him next time I see him.

Well, hm... I don't know about the best, but certainly parts of both worlds, eh? And flying is always good, eh?

[Again. NOT COMMENTING ONT THAT FIRST PART but for a completely different reason. He is still very angry at Soraoto.]

Ah, I understand. I was simply... trying the phrase out as it seemed appropriate? Ah hah....

Flying is! Ah, it's so strange to be without my wings and aviation magic when my chip was in. Still, it's good to walk when one can.

[Nothing beats flying, though. He's happy Flandre flies too. FLYING FAMILY!]

Ah of course.

[Laughs.] I'm not much of one for walking. Still, gotta keep the legs strong, eh? [Just don't ask how he does that because it's usually through leveling buildings and ~~sex standing up.~~]

I still can't get used to how many people here fly.

[Yes. Don't mention that with Cube. Tatsumi on the other hand...]

Ah, I wish I could say the same but I suppose where I'm from it is quite a normal occurrence. Well, excluding the humans. I find it fascinating how they've found ways around it, though.

[That will be a horrible thread discussing mixed species and favorite sex positions. Horrible.]

Eh, really? What like ships... and "cars"? [omg be proud of him. It took him ages to learn that word and he still finds it a bizarre concept.]

Ships, automobiles, planes, trains, even rockets! There was a man at a show the Mistress went to see who strapped rockets to his back!! it was terrifying but he was very skilled at controlling it, it seemed.

I can't help but wonder if Heaven's technology leaked or if humans figured such things out themselves. I know I certainly couldn't have! The devices I was able to use during my stay in Japan was incredible and none of it magic!

That sounds really weird, mate.

Sounds right about Japan. So most of his people are that way too, eh?

Ah, yes. It is a part of their everyday life. It took me some time to become accustom to it. Like the telephones! They have the ones in the home and then smaller ones in which you can carry around, like the communication devices we have here but smaller most times and it seemed they could do anything one does with a computer but it fit into their pocket!

[Despite how old this has probably shown him to be, his voice rises a bit in excitement as he recalls all the housewares.]

But you should see the tools they have for the kitchen! Ahhh~! It was amazing! Some you barely do anything and it'll cook a dinner all by itself! There were so many devices for so many things, though. It can be overwhelming.

Edited 2011-08-31 15:33 (UTC)

Computer... I keep hearing about them but I don't understand it.

What? How can something cook dinner by itself? Unless it was like a cyborg or something.

[Best mental image of Cube fitting in with the Brave Little Toaster gang.]

Hmmm, it's a bit hard to explain. Imagine the communication devices but the screens four times it's size but the device itself just as thin. Instead of the bottom being a screen you can touch, there are little buttons with symbols on them for you to use, usually the alphabet. There IS a part you can touch with your fingers but it's used to move around the screen at the top.

The Mistress always used the computer to do homework, typing up papers like how we type to one another but she could transfer the message onto paper, like a photograph. She could also speak with her friends or research a whole library of things or do both at the same time! It's so complex and I never really found the time to learn it but it was amazing!! You could add things to it as well, like music and pictures or the little jumping people!

[Can you hear how ecstatic he is? He's like a small child going to Disney World or something except he went to modern day Japan instead.]

I don't know! it was fascinating! You add ingredients bought from a store and it would cook all by itself! Oh! oh! There were also these box-like machines everywhere that would give you items if you inserted the correct amount of money into them! You could buy so many things using those and not have to goto a store!

[Omg best image ever!!]

... What the hell? And humans use this? [To note, look at how much more ridiculous Marco is by referring to humans as crazy-cakes. Even though he's human too... yeah.]

That sounds... insane. I mean... a little like den den mushi, but how can put an entire library... onto this thing? Can this thing hold books? I should ask Japan...

Whoa seriously!? What kind of food? [As Marco has like... those mice/hamster food dispensers in mind, except with coins to pull the lever.]

[You forgot to add "Even though he's crazy too"]

Yes. The younger generations seem dependent on it, actually.

Den den mushi?

Oh! no, it doesn't hold a book itself, those you could still buy, but the information... l-like the words could still be seen on the screen.

Mostly those ready-to-eat foods. They have the instant foods, like the noodles you add water too, and chips, and pickled squid, and some of them are cold so you can even buy ice cream or yogurt! I believe I've seen some broken ones in Discedo before...

Oh! There are similar looking machines that sell toys but it's a game where you maneuver this metal hand to reach down and grab the toy you want. It's quite difficult. I could not win one unless I were to use my magic.

Also, there are ones that take your photo. The Mistress has done that one many times with her friends, and a few times with the Master when he took her to the amusement park as a younger child.

[e sort of wishes he could get photos done now. The thought darkens his excitement a bit.]

I would think so... I mean if I could put all the accounting and forms and books for the Whitebeard pirates on just one of these things and STILL have it act like a den den mushi, I could probably almost take over the world. Well, I'd still have to fight, but I could free up a lot of time and space, eh.

Could we put books on these comm things? Then we wouldn't have to replace the library, anyone could read it.

OH! Wait! Like that drink machine in the mall?

Toys... Well... damn... looks my dream of moving to Japan to protect it with him is looking further by the minute. Sounds... like a lot to take in. Mah, but it can't be as hard as the islands on the New World! I'll find a way!

The amusement park... are those common? There's almost only one on the Grand Line, and it's in an area highly known for slavery and kidnappings. Pops could protect Fishman Island, eh, but no one can take care of Sabaody. Even Rayleigh has troubles and he's one of the few I'd instantly acknowledge as a little stronger than me. [Notice he says "a little" but Rayleigh is probably leagues stronger than Marco. Just to note this.]

Yes, it would, wouldn't it? Its still good to have a paper copy because those computers fail to function sometimes. I did track all the master's spending with smaller devices. Ah, Japan was very complicated when it came to money... but I figured out what I needed to to help the Master.

I imagine we could but I wouldn't know how othern than typing up the entire book by hand. It certainly would be much more handy if all the medical books were easy to access on here. [Which is what he is kind-of doing with the medical documents.]

Yes!! The Drink machine! They're like that but with food!

Eh? But isn't Marco-san from a different world than Japan-san? Why does he need protecting? Did something happen?

Yes, apparently so. There was one within the same town in which we lived. It was by the ocean and when one would ride the rides, you could see the coastline. There was also an aquarium too where you could watch penguins and dolphins as well as other water creatures.

W-What? K-Kidnappings?! T-That's terrible. Why is Sabaody so difficult to protect?

[He does note that, but now cant help but worry.]

Oh. Then I'll stick to notebooks I suppose. Eh, easier to burn the evidence in a hurry. Or bury it. [Still a pirate at heart.]

Well... I guess if we got some of the books I could type them up for you. Or we could really big pictures to sort of scan it in. [They have scans in his world, but not computers. Then again, there are cyborgs too so there's that.]

Impressive food machines... I see... Did Japan invent them? They seem like they'd be an American thing since he likes food without a lot of preparation.

Oh... well not exactly. [Rubs the back of his neck.] When I finish up protecting my brothers back home I'm going to go to his world to ah... stay with him. [Blushes.]

Whoa... that sounds really nice! Were there bubble trees?

Sabaody is an archipelago of trees. It doesn't have any dirt or actual... island to hold it together, instead the trees float on the top and their roots extend all the way done. It's right off the Red Line near Mariejois -- which is the World Government "Holy City." No one's allowed through there and Marineford is the marine base next to it to protect it. So instead all the pirates on the Grand Line who want to get into the New World have to stop at Sabody to get their ships coated so that they can go to Fishman Island which is under the ocean, under Sabaody so the the light filters all the way from the treetops. It'd be impossible for any one faction to protect because the Holy City is nearby and so are the tenryuubito, there's so many pirates coming through that even the marines can't deal with them -- though they let the bounty hunters try, and anyone trying to take control would have to deal with a constant bloodbath.

The tenryuubito are world government royalty that can do whatever they want, so even though slavery is illegal everywhere else in the world, the tenryuubito are allowed to own slaves -- though it's usually just pirates, blood of pirates, or fishmen and non-humans. It's pretty much the only place in the world you'll find a slave auction. And because of that, pirates try to kidnap the fishmen children or mermaids, giants, anything that'll fetch a price.

B-But the evidence?! Were you in debt to people, Marco-san?

How would one scan them in?

I'm not sure who invented them. I only learned a small bit of history through the Mistress' schooling when she would study. Outside that, I'm afraid I'm at a loss. I'm sorry. However, I dounbt America-san could make such things. [He doesn't think highly on America's intelligence level. Add that and the fact Cube also believe America is mentally unstable and you get why he wouldn't trust the country near a kitchen.]

[Cube notices the change in expression there, specially since it's not really one he was expecting. However, he keeps it to himself. Instead his eyes widen at what Marco says.]

Y-you plan to leave your original world for another as well, Marco-san?! I-I thought I was the only one. How do you plan to get there? Is there portal magic in your world somewhere?

Sabaody sounds beautiful itself... but The Holy City d-doesn't sound very holy at all. How does one coat their ship to go under water?

T-Thats horrible. Slavery of any kind is unforgivable! And to think that fishmen in the world I'm from are the ones who kidnap children. [maybe some kind of weird mirror image? he isn't sure but his ears are drooped in a mess of bad feelings.]

Ah, b-but didn't you say your father protected the Fishman island?

[LAUGHS.] Debt??? Don't be ridiculous. No, I had to manage the finances of a 1600 hundred person crew. We have many enemies. My bounty poster reward alone could probably buy a small castle with enough leftover to hire servants. Honestly, Silvers Rayleigh should try doing turning himself in to the marine with bounty hunters and splitting the pay out when then escape, but knowing the world government, they probably wouldn't pay up until the man was actually dead. Then again they gave Teach an instant shichibukai position, but they were probably desperate. Not to mention insanely stupid.

Yeah, you're probably right. Still, trust America to be clever about food, eh. But it was probably Japan. He's smart with gadgets. I don't think I've ever seen someone so clever about such things. He could probably give Vegapunk a run for his money. [Then again, Marco is probably just bragging about his boyfriend.]

Wait.... you're going to another world as well? Ah... what is your plan?? I still... intend to talk to England in person about a favor... Japan in his and Sakura's time stops believing in phoenixes and miracles that aren't economic. And the other times he's gone back he hasn't remembered anything. I'm not so worried that I'll forget, because I never forget nakama. That kind of blood and pain is etched into my soul. And even if I have to spend 40 years to make him remember me or trust me again or anything it'll be time well spent. I promised him he wouldn't have to be alone again, and I mean it. My Pops... promised me that too.

Ah, but as I said, I'm not sure he'll be able to even see me so I'm going to talk to England to help me, because I know he or she will. And phoenixes are... special. And my world has Vegapunk trying for space travel and Sky Islanders are special, and I can go to the giants on Elbaf. I have to protect my family first, but then I will find a way to Japan, because I won't let him down. No matter what. Even if I have to chart the stars.

Sabaody is... tricky. Parts are very nice, but dig a little under the surface and it's practically a war zone between pirates, bounty hunters, slavers, tenryuubito, marines, and then tourists travel about like it's nothing while the others try to rob them blind.

The trees have a special sticky sap that it is a bit salty from the ocean. It can be used to make all kinds of things that will fly about or work in the amusement part, and it can coat the ships in a giant bubble to make them hold oxygen and such. Which is really useful for Devil fruit users like me, eh? My Pops was clever too. When we had to fight Marineford and all the marines and shichibukai to get back Ace, we covered the four side ships in it and popped up under water on those while the allies pretended to make a regular attack and distract them. And then even later than that we sailed our flagship the Moby Dick in under water too. Ah but... [Grits his teeth furiously.] Akainu burned her too. I really hate that man.

Fishmen kidnap children? No way. Jinbei is practically a pushover for kids... eh... everyone who calls Whitebeard "Pops" usually is. Even Teach won't murder kids in cold blood. I guess... if the hate and only that continued, some of them could get that way. [Marco doesn't know Arlong beyond "that idiot in Jinbei's crew" and as such thinks he can't be too bad because Jinbei Marco adores.] That's why I understand Eridan, you know? I think he just hasn't seen enough reason not to feel that kind of rage. But he's still young enough that he can grow out of it with enough reason to feel other things. Pops was close King Neptune -- the merman ruler. They were best friends so Pops always protected fishman island. When we first passed through, he saw the slavery and announced the island was his from then on and put his flag up. The marines wouldn't... or couldn't do jack to protect it so it's not like they had anything to lose. Pops said anyone who wanted to do slavery from then on had to go through our crew first.

I... don't really know what will happen without Pops... To be honest. I can't hold it alone. And I'm worried trying will just make people want to try to prove how we're not so tough without Pops... so it'd be a constant battleground and that was the opposite of the point. It'll... have to go to another pirate emperor, or someone just as strong. But I wish I could more to help King Neptune after how close he and my Pops were.

[Cube's mouth drops. He can'nt- his brain is just failing trying to imagine the mound of paperwork that Marco must go through]

W-When does Marco-san sleep?!

[He clears his throat and smiles, a little]

Ah, well that would be really handy, w-wouldn't it? I can't imagine turning oneself in working more than once, though, if it worked at all.

I believe a computer can still have it's information erased in a hurry a-and from the sounds of things, it might be best for such a large crew. M-maybe Japan-san will know more?

I still need to ask Japan-san a favor in regards to these devices. If I had met him as he is now, a person, but before ever coming to Discedo... I would have thought he were an Angel. They're usually the ones who know the ins and outs of technology, like he does. Was Vegapunk a robot?
