[text] Doctor says, are you in?

[personalityquarks]

Hello, everyone! My apologies for not introducing myself sooner. My name is Strange, and I serve as the station's medical officer.

[This, presumably, would explain why they were RATHER BUSY in the aftermath of the Fissure expedition. Cough, cough.]

And on that note, I'd like it if everyone could stop by the medical lab for a moment or two, when you have the chance. I just want to do a check to ensure that no one's suffering any ill effects from the Fissure. There will be nothing invasive or nasty, I promise.

I'd also like to speak to Noctis, if you have time available.

[Feel free to respond to this post, or just drop in on the medical bay with an action tag!]

[Honestly, he's not the one Strange is really concerned about. Most everyone has recovered from his particular idiocy at this point.]

Afternoon. Here for the check-up?

[riderofcharlemagne]

You bet! You know I'm not a regular human by now, right?

[personalityquarks]

Unless I'm much mistaken, 'not a regular human' outnumbers the actual humans here now.

[They sound a bit amused.]

Anything in particular I should be on the lookout for?

[riderofcharlemagne]

[Well...they do have a point there. It gets a small laugh from Astolfo, before he approaches their question.]

Actually, [He can't think of a way to quickly explain the situation, so he cuts right to the chase.] I shouldn't be able to be here, like this...[He taps on his chest to communicate what he means until the word comes to him.] Corporeally.

[personalityquarks]

...Hmm.

[Strange thinks on that one for a minute.]

Any idea what could be causing it? I mean, there's certainly no need to correct it if it isn't causing you a problem, but if it's a concern...

[riderofcharlemagne]

Normally I can only exist with a mana source. I was getting that from my Master but, with certain circumstances I know that can’t be the case anymore. Some Servants can last a while after losing their Master, but... [He feels like asking this is very much a “looking a gift horse in the mouth” situation.] I think I’ve clearly gone over that limit.

[personalityquarks]

Hmm. It's possible you're being sustained off the ambient magic here - since we are still technically in a Fissure region, it's fairly high.

[riderofcharlemagne]

You mean I can sustain this form as long as I’m here?!

[His expression changes completely, looking about to burst from happiness.]

[personalityquarks]

It's been long enough that I'd think if you were going to have problems, you'd have started having them by now, hasn't it?

[riderofcharlemagne]

[He gives it a moment of thought, then a nod.]

Yeah, that sounds about right. [If he was struggling with not performing to his full power, he wouldn't be aware of it anyway.] No need to worry then?

[personalityquarks]

Shouldn't be, though you might want to stop in occasionally for an extra check or two anyway, especially if anything changes.
