Hello, my name is Julian Bashir. I've recently arrived and based on what I've read in the information compilation and what I know from what your friend Lexa told me, you seem to be one of the leaders of the people brought here against their will.
I'm reaching out to offer my services as a physician for those like us. I have seven years' experience working on a space station at the edge of the quadrant. I also have experience with xeno-medicine as well, should anyone else that is non-human show up.

[Lexa already making connections. Not a surprise, really. Isn't that what she'd do?]
Hi Julian—or would you prefer Doctor Bashir? I know the title doesn't carry over here, but it might be nice to hear it from time to time.
I can say with a certainty that we could use the help. We're lacking in a lot of arenas, especially when it comes to blood tests and a variety of other areas (especially if it comes to testing our physiology while under the influence of our powers). If you're any good at that, well, we could use the help.
Otherwise, I think having a lot of experience with different types of people would help. Stephen and I are limited, me even more so. All we had in my neck of the woods was humans.

Just when I was going to come back full time.
[ Not to make a likely impending disaster into a joke but he's got to start somewhere and it would be nice if not every conversation had to be the precursor to or follow up from a period of doom and/or gloom. ]

If it's a civilian, we don't know. This is the first time it's ... changed them. That they've been this viciously attacked and turned. I don't want to consider the likely outcome.
But last time, they were hospitalized in the same place. The difference is that it was only a sickness that time. They weren't changed, and we don't know how to get out the message if they are.
And if it's among us, I can only assume that we won't let that happen to our own. So to speak.

Mixed, but his heart is in the right place.
That said, I wouldn't advise working with him if he rubs you the wrong way. It'll be ... difficult for you to take orders from someone like him.
[A Commander versus Damian?
Lexa's more reasonable than Clarke will ever be, but she can see how badly that can go.]

[So Bellamy meets Clarke in the living room as promised. Of course they're both making Mount Weather comparisons, and he knows she's probably thinking about Sanctum too, though that's more of a vague concept to him. He's not sure if this is the right plan to jump to, the idea of infiltrating Riverstone and taking out whoever gets in their way when they know so little.
He's holding off on digging into that after she shows him whatever she needs to show him, though.]
What was it?

What was it?
[Unfortunately for Bellamy, he hasn't seen this Clarke. The one driven by purpose, who sat idle for too long. It's a Clarke shaped by her time with Madi, a Clarke who's in pain and who's trying to repress it.
She's accomplishing it, too. If she knew precisely what she was doing, if she was in full-fledged awareness mode, she wouldn't be ready to grab Bellamy's hand and pass a memory to him.
She's been building on this coping method for a while. Finding a project. A goal. A way to focus herself away from her pain. Stuff it away and look forward. Now it's a matter of stopping Rey. Of "fixing a past mistake," or so she's told herself.
Suppress and ignore.
So, palm up, ready for Bellamy to take her hand.] It's easier to show you.

We haven't officially met yet, but I stayed at Red Wings for a little while
@ robert.plant said you might know where I can lay may hands on some weaponry?
I don't expect it for free or anything

I prefer to only hand it out during times of need, like the big monster attack recently. You're not allowed to carry a weapon here anyway, and being found with one could be serious trouble.
Which is to say—I'll provide if it comes to there being a need, but I don't tend to give them out otherwise.
[Unless they're one of her People, that is.]

I'm sorry, Castiel.
There is a "but" here, however.
You said that this is how he is, but in this case, he's done the following:
1. Rude to both me and others, while they were still working out a plan.
2. Unnecessarily rude to me for stating what those worked out plans were going to be, or the flaws we needed to overcome.
3. Stated that we had a "history," when we had a previous conversation where, like this time, he assumed the worst of my intentions (where I was previously simply trying to declare an order of prioritization). That is, in fact, the totality of our so-called history. He doesn't get to claim a history with me in order to treat me poorly.
4. Otherwise, we had worked and collaborated easily enough.
What I did was wrong. I accept that.
But I don't accept "he's just this way" as an excuse anymore, Castiel.
I am sorry that you died to get back here, though.

Just for knowledge?
[To Clarke, that's an incredibly impractical answer. Knowledge can help, can give answers—but knowledge isn't on the same level as her people.
It can never be.]
No. I wouldn't.
[That's the thing. Clarke will kill for many reasons related to her people. But "knowledge," the sheer protection of it, isn't Her People-ism related.]

Glimmer is gone. I was going to have her do a public post about training the civilians.
You know I don't like the network, but it seems I might have to use it. Recommendations?

Don't offer much room for feedback. Say how it's going and offer jobs, as well as an estimate of when it'll be ready.
It's something you're doing. No one can talk you out of it now. If someone can help market this, that'll be good, too.
We're probably going to want to dissociate it from Red Wings. Originally, I wanted it to be a joint partnership, but a lot of people are holding grudges against Stephen for what he was forced to do in the Aerie.

Patient tending his own wound near the entryway. Don't touch him if he doesn't want you to, he's just discovered his power and it's touch-activated and dangerous. Seems to have experience administering his own first aid but I don't want this kid left unmonitored for long.
Blood and vomit on the floor. Watch your step.

I'm fine.
[To a certain degree, she means it. It's not as if she feels like she was out of line.]
This is just the way things go with Jason. It sounds like you've had your own version of it?
[Going off what he said to him, anyway.
Clarke has tried with Jason because he's important to so many people in her life, but she's also given up. It's not like with Murphy where he's her people. If Jason wants an adversarial relationship, then he's gotten it.]
