Are they going to fill in that line once he's in?

Permalink

That does not appear to be the plan.

Permalink

Seems inefficient but maybe they're trying to be polite by leaving him a line of retreat. He waits for the signal and when he has it he channels.

Permalink

Only the mice had visible open wounds, but people still look better. Some of the people who were unconscious with tubes are still unconscious, while others are suddenly conscious and reaching for the tubes and being told to not do this by the people who were outside the channel radius and are now moving people out of it.

Permalink

Anyone who had, say tubes or needles through their skin may just spontaneously not have them any more, for the same reason it's safe to channel at someone who's got an arrow sticking out of them if you don't have time to pull it.

Permalink

…in that case the people who were outside the radius may be in somewhat more of a rush.

Permalink

Oh dear. He will stay right where he is in case any of them need to rush across his exit path.

Someone who was just healed isn't speaking coherently, but sounds upset. She maybe wants to grab at Blai, but she's not actually in range of him and does not seem to be moving towards him, either.

…nonetheless, Blai's security team would rather he wait in the car for them to get out the next round of patients.

Permalink

Yeah he can wait in the car. "What was troubling that one patient?"

Permalink

"When people are sick, sometimes it makes them bad at thinking, and one of the kinds of bad at thinking that can happen is getting upset for no clear reason."

Permalink

"So she wasn't just speaking some other language, she was having a fit?"

Permalink

Okay. He waits.

Permalink

Eventually they have another round of patients. These ones already have some relevant tubes removed.

Permalink

He can walk out of the car and into the center of the circle and channel there without incident, hopefully?

Permalink

This time someone loudly announces "Praise Jesus!" but this does not seem to require a response from him.

Permalink

He's gonna not engage with that. He does not have any particular reason to object to the praise of Jesus even if it is based in a misunderstanding at this moment.

Permalink

And now they can head back before anyone succeeds at cornering Blai with questions.

Permalink

Success!

Permalink

"That was impressive."

Permalink

"Most clerics get three, or more."

Permalink

"Well, good for them, but two big batches of miraculous healing is still a lot by our standards."

Permalink

"Fair enough."
