We are a community, those of us on this boat, and each of us anchors different points and different smaller groupings within it. When an anchor is cut, even temporarily, the ripples of that reach farther than we often realize.
And I suppose I am used to working with other doctors. True, we all have our patients and our specialties. But collaboration and constructive commentary and learning from one another are what keep our minds sharp and our eyes open to what blind spots may hold obstacles we would sooner trip on.
Lestat is still my 'patient', as it were, but he was here before I was. I may disagree with a previous diagnosis, but it would be arrogance and disservice to him to never look at the notes left previously.
Suppose we'll see what that looks like with our current handful, whoever else comes.
[He'd ask who otherwise, but there's no one that he's got any particularly strong feelings about when it comes to the art of Wardening, and plenty others he doesn't know at all.]
As a group, we're far less refined and reasonable as a clutch of doctors. Interesting tack to try though. Sure as shit better than havin' it in the proverbial town square.

At any rate, I hope it won't get there but won't be surprised if it does. I'll be there, either way.

Good day to you, sir. And the best of luck until then.
