Time to reassess.

Does anyone continue to need help? Essential repairs, I mean.

Have people managed to get back into their own living structures? If not, what non-essential tasks need assistance?

Have all of the first-responders slept off the sleep debt and had their wounds healed? I believe we're through the worst of it, and now that that's true, we may begin to creep back to normal.

I can't promise that any of the minor concerns raised here will be addressed in any amount of time, but we must begin to consider the worst of it. Access to city streets, for example, natural water supply and ash run-off. The health of the barriers between us and the Wastes and what other protective fortifications might need reworking.

Are we going to treat this event like something that might occur again? What effect will that have on the materials we use for rebuilding? Should we focus on having a few central locations made completely of stone?

Winter is coming to an end, so scavenging will be easier soon, but is there anyone whose supplies were completely destroyed and who lacks the food and blankets to make it through? Or other supplies; furniture, soap, even books. Speaking of books, did the library survive? That place was a tinderbox.

What am I not thinking of?

-=Starts fingering off what he knows and has directed.=-

Rachel Berry is conducting a food drive in order to ration out what canned products we have and root plants that were salvagable.

Lt. Hart is in charge of hunting parties for fresh meat and skins that can be used to help fortify shelters and furs for clothing.

Ukitake is in the midst of salvaging and helping out with others to determine the safety of buildings and usable products. I think?....Axel is with him?

Ginny Weasley is in the process of converting bits and pieces of things into usable items. Blankets and the like, mostly.

As for health and medical, I don't know yet. Unohana has taken the lead to that in the past.

I would like to think people are clustering around the Temple and Cathedral for the time being in order to conserve resources, but no one is being forced to stay.

Water's going to be an issue. There's a functioning slow flow filter on my property, but I don't know how the pipes are here. I can transmute something that will help filter things, but we'll still need to boil.

Does that help any?

It helps a lot- and it's a good directory for people watching this to use if they do need aid in any way.

Hopefully, we'll be able to begin focusing on getting people back into their own homes soon, but if the temple and cathedral aren't overcrowded in the extreme, perhaps that will happen organically. I wouldn't like to force anyone still needing support to leave a communal space.

It sounds like the water crisis is the next thing we have to solve. There are places with working plumbing, but I'm not sure where they are supplied from, and whether that source has been contaminated.

Does anyone know a resident familiar with that sort of plumbing and technology?

[saintedsinner]

I don't. Maybe some of the newer people do.

In the mean time, are you looking for a position to head up collecting potable water?

Video

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Yes. Ideally, with safeguards in place to assess the water quality.

At least the downed buildings will provide good kindling.

[saintedsinner]

Alright, I'll help you get started with that. Maybe work on some sort of distillery too. It's possible that the lake isn't as tainted...if that's false, then moving water will work better.

Everyone is still at odds with one another.

[He yawns.]

Sure they work together on the surface, but didn't you notice the death threats posted to the network yesterday?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I saw the 'touch them and I'll kill you all' post, but that seemed fair. Was that in response to something specific, or did it escalate?

[neverquitedies.livejournal.com]

I'm your eyes and ears on the community now.

[He laughs, softly.]

There are things stirring. Nobody is happy with what happened, and enough blame those two to do something about it. But those two have friends too, as you've seen. If something erupts, it's not going to be pretty.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Is there any movement from the police force to convene? I think there needs to be some kind of public statement made, by someone with authority.

I'm not sure whether to make my stance on the question public.

[neverquitedies.livejournal.com]

[He shrugs.]

Some of the dissonance is coming from the police force. Unless Alphonse and Raven pull it together, it's going to crumble. Keeping the girl in their ranks will look bad on them- kicking her out will undoubtedly make several other members drop out as well. It's not as simple as dropping out, anymore- children want to play at politics and they wind up killing off half their population and ruining their government. I've seen it happen before. [Idly, glancing off.] Young princes, eager to impress their betrothed, going into unfounded wars, ruining their economy... the world is wasted on the young.

If I think of anything you might have left off, I shall let you know immediately, Break-san.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

I know the clinic is generally impeccably stocked, but is there anything that you've been using a great deal of? Better replenish early.

[bunny_flower]

I scattered the supplies around, and most of it survived. Mostly, we need water, bandages, and bedsheets.

The garden is ruined, and if anyone had any of the saplings I distributed and they are still living, we are going to need them to start again.

[She looks surprised to see him, but immediately comes closer to take some of the load off his arm.]

Break-san, you did not have to come yourself!

[thelightbringer]

I can't...quite get this.

[Sitting on Break's windowsill, tying a variety of knots into a single length of rope.]

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

...you're magical.

[Glancing over his shoulder thoughtfully.]

Can you make a sewage system without anyone having to go near it?

[thelightbringer]

[He almost drops the rope and gives Break a distinctly flabbergasted, offended look. How very dare you, Xerxes.]

I am not. But you know who does have shiny magical powers? Rei. Let her dig it, or burn it, or however it works.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

So we can all breathe it in for the next few weeks?

[Eyebrows arching, as he flops onto his stomach, kicking his feet.]

If it isn't magic, how do you self-identify?

[thelightbringer]

It's her fault this happened, let her roll around in the mess.

[He goes back to threading knots, frowning as whatever he's trying to do continues to defy him]

I'm an angel. I'm Creation.

[hyuugahime]

I-I can help locate water supplies. I-if needed.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Talk to Edward Elric, in the thread above you in this post, if you must. He's coordinating that effort...

Unless you know anything about sewage?

[hyuugahime]

M-My cousin helped map out the original system, and ... I can see through object with a 360 degrees vision field and a range of ten kilometers.

I-I can't repair the system itself, but I can help with finding where it's broken, and ... find some more clean water.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

All right. What is the best way to get in touch with you?

[hyuugahime]

W-Well, I've bene resting at home, but I feel better now. I guess through the PCD works? O-Or Raven-san usually knows where I am.
