Milliways Dossier: Guppy

[herr_bookman]

Threads: (x)

History

• Works in Orthogeriatrics - found medical emergency work too stressful
  
• Has a history of anxiety?
  
• Three children: Fry (born at 27 weeks), Coral (born at 31 weeks), and Brooklyn (born full term)
  
• Wife: Fran, a physiotherapist
  
• British
  
• Offers a free clinic and life support, where people talk about their issues

Impressions

• Threat Level: SEVERE - Guppy is extremely anxious, and will send Gene after me if my fingers twitch - Updated: Guppy seems to be less nervous around me now, but I doubt he trusts me yet - nor should he!
  
• Bernard - Set up a health care fund for the Milliways' patrons - interesting!
  
• Belladonna is poisonous! What!
  
• Treated me for bronchitis, not pertussis
  
• Showed me the futuristic, expensive infirmary's computer, which analyzed my sputum for infectious diseases - neat!
  
• Introduced me to anti-biotics and vaccines - how kind of him
  
• Three infirmary rats - Aesclepius, Work Experience, and Backup
  
• Attended his first aid and machinery introduction course
  
• Learned CPR - use one hand with children, and two fingers for infants - and basic wound care
  
• Gave me a basic first aid kit
  
• Showed me the Bezoars
  
• Kolto - a patch from Atton's world - is good for most burns that don't involve eyes
  
• Cling film - a thin layer of plastic - is good for burns; reduces moisture loss
  
• Showed me the stasis machine - with one button, places a person into a time freeze
  
• Has used the portable scanners to check on his family
  
• "Remember, you cannot save everyone"
  
• Was researching flu strain vaccines before the Allopocalypse - I'll have to ask him about the A/H5N1 and A/H1N1 subtypes again
  
• Apparently writing dossiers is considered a criminal work in his world? - Good thing I'm not there
  
• Secret service - spy network
  
• "You are aware, I hope, that a number of patrons here could and would significantly harm you if you were caught?" - what, really?
  
• Looked awful during the dossiers kerfuffle
  
• Proud of Fry for sending Gene after me - "proud of his common sense"
  
• Guppy realized he doesn't know anything about me, because he hasn't asked any questions himself
  
• The only thing that unnerves me about all of this is that he keeps assuming that I'm a threat to his children, when there is absolutely no supporting evidence for that
  
• Strangely enough, he apologized but said this: "we both got all hot and bothered" - emphasis mine, because seriously?
  
• He is, however, always willing to "start over" - interesting
  
• Ordered a plate of Fried Paradoxes for the two of us
  
• Also offered some "warnings" and "advice" re: not pissing off the wrong people - Duly noted.
  
• What a mess
  
• Patched me up after Noriko smashed an inkwell in my face
  
• "I came to realise that it wasn't you I should have been worried about in here. And that I don't have any right to expect you to trust me either, without us knowing each other better" - interesting. what brought about the change of heart?
  
• Discounts me as a threat because of the presence of Dr. Lecter - wait, what?
  
• Apparently Shufti speaks highly of me, huh
  
• Doesn't want me to write about his children because: "I am more concerned that the information could fall into hostile hands. Fry might be highly intelligent but he's also vulnerable"
  
• Had a new surprise baby - Gil - who had a heart operation
  
• Started working in the infirmary eight years ago
  
• Rhymed to him to tell him about the pox disease
  
• Set my arm after I broke it falling off the carpet
  
• Left a note for him after Fry was concerned about poisonings

Weaknesses

• Guppy must have had something horrible happen to him in his life; his anxiety is through the roof

Scabs

• None for now. Asking questions is what got us into this mess

Opportunities

• If he ever screwed up some courage, then I could go over the stasis machine plans with him
