“Funny, how it’s easier to see / the forest for the trees / when winter steals the leaves.” -- Shayfer James, “Godspeed”

'Choly stirred the glass mug with a swizzle stick. His lips pursed ever so slightly as he lifted the stick in intervals, only to continue stirring. He took a moment to readjust the sash of his robe. Left undisturbed, a visible separation had formed in the liquid. Atop a translucent substance floated a dark thin oil, bitingly coppery and leathery. At the bottom settled pale solids and a wad of delicate cotton scraps. Only once he decanted the inch of solution into a shot glass could he even faintly smell the ammonia which had produced this result.

Into a second shot glass, he poured the separated fluid over a coffee filter loaded with a mound of crushed coffee grounds and loose cigarette tobacco. The back of a spoon liberated lingering fluid from the filter's contents. He gathered the filter's edges with one hand, and carefully replaced it on the first shot glass. Then, he poured the increasingly fluorescent milky fluid over the filter for a second pass, and macerated the ashen grounds with the spoon to squeeze out every last drop. The pulpiness and coloration gave the impression he'd idly destroyed a highlighter.

"I know you've only just gotten situated, Mister Carey," Angel said.

He jerked in place and shoved the spoon through the filter, but managed to pull it away without spilling the solids into his concoction.

"Sorry, Sir," it continued. "Erm, hopefully you can find a stopping point? I just heard the plumbers. The initial system flush is complete. They should reopen the baths very soon."

"Bless you and your wonderful timing." Animate and wild-eyed, he repeatedly steadied himself to divide the substance into metered twin-barrel hypodermic doses. As he worked, he told the robot, "A few more minutes and I'm done. Words do not describe how badly I want to head over there."

"I've gathered your sundries, for when you're ready! We should hurry if we can. The lines will likely form quickly."

He tapped his nose and adjusted his glasses with that finger.

"I'll be quick. Quick and precise."

He brushed his fingertips across the five injectables, then reached for paper and pen for a note. The things I requested were for a batch of Daddy-O. I noticed you still store Med-X like we did downstairs. I stored these with them. Halfway through, he became more conscious and deliberate with his penmanship. I would prefer if you didn't sample them. Consider them intermediary for my whipping up what you really asked me for. He folded the note and stood to go stash the syringes in a Slocum's Joe tin with other injectable chems.

It's only fitting, he told himself smirking, to store something crafted with coffee in a coffee tin. He returned the MKX inside Angel. He found Bledsoe front-end with a patient, and waved to get his attention. The medic glanced up at him, and both he and the patient went quiet.

"Not to interrupt." He slipped the note onto Bledsoe's clipboard. "It's nothing urgent. Just thought you'd like proof I'm on task. Stepping out now."

"Music to my ears," Bledsoe told the patient with a chuckle.

On his way out the front door, Angel joined him toting a bulky, haphazard satchel it had fastened around and atop itself. It took all his composure to suppress the skip in his step, lest he dislocate or pull something between there and baths. He and Angel both struggled with the stairs, but the Mister Handy still spotted his descent to the lower level as best it could, since it could still walk itself down in whichever direction required with no loss of vision.

A cane would make this so much easier. Of course, regaining his orthotics would improve his mobility even more than a cane. …Any cane. Even a simple one.

They entered Anchor’s lobby and followed the halls back to the inn’s baths. Just as they were trying to identify those on the repair team, a lightly armored See’s guard arrived. She slouched at them.

“How come you’re already ready to go?” The young woman crossed her arms. “Hall ain’t said a word about reopening the showers.”

“Ha, yes.” A terse, toothless smile pricked at his cheeks, and he adjusted his Fashionable Glasses. She didn’t need to know he’d been sitting around the GCC all morning in his robe in anticipation of this very moment, or that Angel had been acting the part of a police scanner for developments. “I do look dressed like I’m expecting spa treatment, don’t I. Don’t think too much of it, officer. I’ve only needed to bathe going on four months now. I’m sure you understand how anxious I am to make use of the amenities once they’re repaired. You, ah. You’re here. That means something, then, doesn’t it?”

The See’s smacked her gum and cocked her jaw.

“Yeah. I was sent down here to check with the plumbers, if you gotta know.” She craned her head around the corner of the women’s side. “Hey, you interested in letting this old lady and her robot try ‘er out? You gotcha first willing test subjects.”

Various answers replied, some which seemed to know his individual by mere mention of a robotic companion. He stiffened, and pressed his palm against the cool curve of Angel’s chassis. His nerves doubled down into a full plaster smile. Something in his shoulder popped. He smiled harder. The See’s leaned against the doorway and grinned back at him.

“They’re sayin’ you can’t give that pile of scrap metal a bath, too.”

“Oh, Sir, I didn't intend to accompany you into the baths regardless. If that's all right.” It hemmed and fussed over the pack it had bundled, and produced towels and some toiletries for him. “Sir, it's exactly as I planned! I have your dirty laundry ready, Sir, and I'm most eager to head downstairs. I’ll keep my sensors attuned for you, Sir. I’ll come flying the moment you need me!”

She smacked her gum some more and wagged her thumb overhead at both doors.

“Pick a door, Methuselah.”

Angel's sensors flicked between the guard and its owner a few times. He twitched a pitiful, appreciative smile at him.

“Good luck, my friend.”

“Enjoy, Mister Carey!”

Angel pivoted and scampered off.

“Yes,” the guard murmured. “Enjoy, Mister Carey.”

“I promise not to use all the hot water,” he muttered offhand in passing. He continued muttering under his breath as he rushed through the other doorway and picked the closest stall to the door. Drawing the curtain, he exhaled hard as he identified the pungent cutting stink of fresh bleach, but he smiled to himself in gratitude that it didn't seem like it masked whether any sourness or rot lingered. Methuselah… If only she knew-- No, inconsequential. Just let it go and relax.

He disrobed and turned on the water. Without his sunglasses to dampen the chroma, he kept his eyes shut as much as possible. The showerhead burbled for a few seconds before the hiss of its spray steadied. Angel had brought him some things from the GCC’s stockroom, and he knew he’d have to reimburse Bledsoe for them. The moment the water showed signs of warming, he stepped in and let it stream over him. After a while, he adjusted the temperature, erring on the side of slightly too warm. He poured out some Sheldon shampoo[96-1] from the trial size bottle and massaged his scalp into a gentle lather. His eyes shut, and his mind melted into soft focus.

Leave it to Sheldon not to petrify or go rancid with age. I wonder if it's shortcut for anything…

‘Choly knew his work order hadn't called for Daddy-O specifically, and he certainly hadn't expected to start with it of all things, but hell if he wouldn't need it. He’d meant every word of his note. He wished he could have started with simple, straightforward products. Med-X, Mentats, Stimpaks… Yes, that did put a time constraint on it, didn’t it? Sticks would insist that they replenish the Melancholia before they headed out. Realistically, they couldn’t reestablish the Blood Drive before they left, but ideally, they could do so once they returned. They both would rest easier if they could secure more donors than Sticks in the future.

He rinsed his hair. Shampooing a second time, he really put his fingernails into it.

A suggestion twinged in the back of his mind: Why not ask the Clark sisters if they can help source blood?

He flinched as his nails grazed too roughly. Soap stung his scalp and the corners of his squinted eyes.

Once he’d rinsed his hair, and then rinsed his eyes, he unwrapped the bar of soap and grabbed for his washcloth. As he worked at scrubbing himself down, he slowed down a bit, and took especial care with his left arm. He bent down and forward out of the water, to peer at the drain, and hemmed at the visible mess of hair in the floor.

My age is catching up to me. RadAway can only undo so much. His mouth skewed as he continued to slowly rub at his chest. Definitely not the worst thing this tile sees today.

Even if they couldn't convince Bledsoe to let him borrow his phlebotomy equipment, they could still carry on like they had at Lockreed for one more batch if they absolutely had to. Not that Sticks would be thrilled, mind you, but at least Sticks had amassed all the other necessary ingredients.

Am I being selfish, for asking to come along? I'm not really contributing anything to the entourage. I'd just be another mouth to feed, and another head to keep track of. Angel won't allow us to get separated, but even if I would consider it, the only souls at the Lane that I would entrust with Angel's well-being will all be crammed into a royal blue Chryslus Coupe. I should stay behind and help the nursing staff watch the GCC in Bledsoe's absence, shouldn't I? I could even get a head start on those chems.

But no, he reminded himself that Sticks, charismatic as ever, had convinced him he had a lot in common with Bledsoe: his breaks are always more of a shuffling of projects, never fully setting everything down. Even if 'Choly didn't help with the caravan directly, he and Bledsoe both needed to get out of the house and decompress. This would be a vacation for 'Choly, too.

Still, he couldn't shake worrying for Angel's safety. The Fog would be thinner, with less risk of weather complications, but pockets of weak magnetic fields floated all throughout the Hinter. He could only hope that, in a worst case scenario, Haidinger might grant him some degree of extended access to the robotics workstation.

He jerked the dial to cold to jolt distressing thoughts. Breathing heavy, he eventually eased the water back up to lukewarm.

"Buddy!" A man rapped on the stall wall. "You drowning in there or what?"

His larynx snagged.

"Yesyes, I'm quite all right." He cleared his throat when his voice broke. "I'll be right out."

Dejected, he eyed the bottle of conditioner on the stepstool.

Next time. Tomorrow even, perhaps.

He let the water run over his scalp for another minute before relenting for the day. He steadied himself on the wall of the stall while he toweled his hair. He patted himself dry, then wrapped up in the towel and tied the thin cotton robe over that. Slipping his glasses back on, he emerged with his toiletries and shuffled over to squeeze in at the nearest available sink.

The baths had filled up more quickly than he'd expected. Or maybe, he had taken that much longer than he thought. Probably both.

He rationed out the barest smidge of toothpaste onto a handcrafted toothbrush with a reed handle, wet it, and, as he brushed, tried to reassure himself that it had to be brand new.

That batch of Daddy-O, though. He still couldn't believe his Luck, that he could yield any new skills or comprehension from a single sitting with the MKEXCEED Papers, let alone produce an elusive and highly desirable prewar chem on the first try. He hoped the efficacy of the drug could be trusted, but it would do in a pinch.

Skimming the Merrick had gotten him nowhere brainstorming what might interest Bledsoe. Just about anything remotely interesting hit the roadblock of scarcity. Patent precursors only presented half the trouble, at that: so many more constituents would either have long since deteriorated if he could even get his hands on them, or synthesizing them would require sophisticated equipment on par with that of a facility like the Deenwood Compound. A pharmacopeia like the Merrick could provide only so much chemistry data, especially one published at a time when the country hadn't yet suffered from rationing or shortages. The reference text catalogued straightforward monographs using industry-accessible prewar chemical compounds, and nothing more.

The MKX, on the other hand, chronicled history and development for hundreds of compounds, dozens of on- and off-label applications, postwar-inclusive contraindications, and where applicable, means of manufacture. Many chems' entries cross-referenced other sections of the text, as the volume of continuous feed paper had been organized into units based on the chems' properties. It comprised thirteen sections over ten units; while seven of the biggest units referred to the traits of SPECIAL, the largest was of course reserved for the eponymous X family.

I wonder how much I contributed to the selection on cyclomorphine. Following the logic that the chemists that contributed to this text would have excelled in their given specialty, what quality did Deenwood believe I excelled at engineering? Making everyone around me hurt as much as possible?

He still couldn't shake the tactile sensation of trying to skim a fifteen-hundred page text that had been printed double-sided on continuous feed paper and snapped into a binder without perforating the pages. He'd done his best not to waste time right then peeling the feed margin off every single fore-edge… but he'd certainly gotten distracted aweing over the seemingly impossible collation magic of such a mammoth print job.

He expectorated and sighed, continuing to brush. He noted a bit of blood in the sink basin, but RadAway recovery aside, he expected as much after not having had a toothbrush for months.

He rinsed his brush, then his mouth. He gargled, and didn't even notice himself swallow instead of spitting it out. He pocketed his glasses and splashed his face again, then dried off with the edge of the towel at his hip. He glanced up to find anyone who'd noticed his presence was doing everything they could to ignore him. They all faced away from him, even where the bath, showers, and urinals seemed more difficult to use. He still decided to use the facilities before he left.

Thank God they've been keeping up on the toilet paper.

When he reemerged, there were no free sinks. He slouched, but the grievance of his back and shoulder corrected his posture before he could even make his way out the door. Handwashing just wasn't worth everyone else's discomfort causing him discomfort. He promised himself he'd at least wash them before he ate anything.

The See's guard managed a hefty line by the time he squeezed by her. He shook his head to himself in chagrined recognition. Even while relaxing with overdue basic care, he had found himself retracing the day up to that point without even noticing. He forbid himself to resume the thought.

He returned to his room and untied the robe to free the towel. Then, he sat on the end of the bed and towel dried at his hair. A lyrical murmur followed while he trimmed his nails: the pair of clippers Angel had found were a miracle compared to having used the Komàr to peel back the overgrowth for months. As was typical of his winter, the officer's gloves may have steadied his hand, but they had done nothing to prevent his fingertips from looking like he'd been peeling potatoes drunk with a paring knife.

Angel is as resourceful and observant as any of them, even when it isn't operating at its best.

His throat snagged again.

"Don't worry, my friend. We'll get you well."

Soon after, impatient rapping sounded against the door. He shut his robe, towel draped around his neck, and eased open the door. Fresnel stood before him in a mesh blouse and lace skirt, her white embroidered stole doubled around her neck as a cowl. She eyed him, gripping one of Angel's tendrils in one fist and a pair of walnut-sized armillaria in the other.

"What is the meaning of this," she blurted out. "Why are you two separated!"

"Thank you for escorting Angel, but everything is just fine. You knew right where I was, didn't you?"

"Of course, Sir! I hate to have upset the Hierosacristan, but at least I have your laundry mostly finished! There are a few more effects that haven't yet dried. It's not long now." When Fresnel relinquished it, Angel rushed into the room to begin unpacking its satchel on the bed. "I'm always so pleased how effective the Lane's laundry methods are. They've truly innovated in many ways to compensate for their lack of technology!"

"The trouble is you didn't know where it was," Fresnel growled, through a smile. She stepped in and shut the door, then leaned against it with her arms crossed. "You know what a risk that was, to let that Core out of your sight."

He bristled, but did his best to disregard her acuity, instead scrutinizing Angel's fresh laundry with a beaming grin.

"Even if someone were to figure out that Angel has the Core, it has a hidden compartment. And even if you knew how to get inside Angel, you wouldn't find where that is."

"Is that a challenge?"

He cleared his throat.

"Not as such. I take it you came looking for me because Haidinger is ready for us finally."

"I did."

"I'm not going anywhere until I'm dressed. Not making that mistake twice in a week. I don't mind you staying in the room, but I need a few minutes."

"I can wait in the upper level lobby. Don't worry about getting presentable. Be comfortable. We have much to take care of."

"I, yes."

He fumbled an exact response, and she let herself out of the room. The moment the door clicked shut, Angel swept in to commence assisting its owner.

"Do forgive me, Sir. It was my idea that we divide and conquer. I didn't think there might be any cause for alarm."

He slipped on the Vault Suit for simplicity. He couldn't pinpoint why the garment felt off. It wasn't too stiff, and had not shrunken. He dismissed the discomfort: I just got too used to how it felt wearing it four months straight. It probably feels wrong because it's clean now.

"No apologies. I wouldn't have anything clean to wear without your efforts. Nothing happened. Nothing was likely to happen."

Angel handed him one piece of Surgical Leather at a time. The laundry methods the Mister Handy had applied had slipped the fan lacing's preset tension, so they had to work together to readjust the fit both for sizing and stability. He noticed that the straps were mostly tightened one or more notches past how he had initially worn the orthotics, but he did not mention it.

"Funny," Angel eventually commented. "Funny how implausible some things seem to be."

He sat up from brushing out his hair, cataracted eyes wide.

"Angel, what are you talking about."

"I'm sure it's nothing. You know me. I worry about simply everything."

"Please tell me. You can talk to me."

"The Hierosacristan does know how to open my compartment. I can't tell you whether she knows about whatever secret compartment you mentioned--and I imagine that's due to some kind of purposeful programming blind spot--but there's no question that you should probably discount my storage as inscrutable security, especially since I seem to have misplaced my attachments."

His officer's gloves and the dampness of his hair facilitated him pinning up his streaked locks. He managed a loose french twist with only four bobby pins. As he returned his sunglasses to his face, Angel presented him his Pip-Boy. He latched it back on, and held the power button so it could resync with his biometrics. He smiled at his robot.

"You haven't misplaced them. This place disarms its patrons. Even you." He let go of his knees and pushed off to stand. He took the lead on their way out, and patted its chassis. "And I'm not concerned. If she wanted to take something out of you, you would have noticed her removing it from you."

"Like you said, I'm sure it's nothing."

"It's nothing. I would like another Mentat before we head out, please."

"Sorry to hear your headache is still holding fast." It gave him the tin, and he handed it back after shaking one from it. "At least there is medication that eases them."

"It's more that I anticipate other headaches," he admitted, as he chewed the tablet. "Hopefully Fresnel and Haidinger will be in good spirits."

"We'll have a grand day of it, Sir. No worries!"

He gave it a small smile.

"We'll do our best, anyway."

They rejoined Fresnel in the lobby, where she then escorted them to an employees restricted hallway. Haidinger awaited them there.

“There you are.” He gave them a sour look with outstretched palms. “I have two ground rules. First, the Core.”

“Right, yes.”

‘Choly turned to open up Angel. He stopped mid-action, however. Fresnel opened her side-bag and produced the STAR Core herself. She handed it over to him with somewhat indifferent deference. His gaze shifted to meet Angel’s, and he pressed his lips together.

“And the other?” Fresnel asked, of equal impatience.

Haidinger did not answer her until he’d stored the Core away safely in his own bag.

“It’s eleven now. You must be done before three.”

“Four hours?” ‘Choly blurted out. “Just a scan might--"

“--be plenty,” Fresnel said. She quirked her lips at him. “Come along. We’ll see how much we can accomplish today.”

Haidinger turned away from them and removed one glove. He pressed his hand against a region of the wall, seemingly to feel for a certain panel. Eventually, a section of the wall inset a few inches, becoming a pocket door which rolled inside the wall. He looked over his shoulder to them as he put his glove back on.

“Don’t make me regret trusting you both.”

“Are you not coming with us?” ‘Choly asked.

“I have other matters to attend to. I cannot be absent for hours without someone questioning my whereabouts.”

He nodded vaguely, and turned to follow the Hierosacristan before the door could shut on them.

“He won’t admit it,” she told them with lyric, “but the main reason is, he thinks it’s likely to be boring.”

The narrow corridor quickly took a corner turn. After that point, fluorescent lights illuminated their way. The two squinted. Fresnel tucked her armillaria into her belt. Once ‘Choly’s eyes adjusted, he took in the dense, exposed wiring, conduits, and pipes of the utility corridor’s walls and ceiling. They eventually reached a dim room where a mainframe computer lined the walls.

‘Choly’s jaw dropped as he took it all in. Large-scale computers weren’t all too uncommon, but this one seemed so out of place, all things considered, for it to be so large. He hadn’t expected the maintenance area to share a space with the mainframe, and he certainly hadn’t expected more of the mainframe than a terminal computer.

“Can you see to work?” Fresnel asked him.

He stood before a pair of secondary terminals, pressing the back of his hand against the underside of his nose at the smell of metallic dust.

“Hm? It’s too dark to work by the light, and I don’t think it’s dark enough to work by armillary.”

“Give me a moment.” She vanished down a second corridor.

“I suppose I could get in position, Sir.” Angel walked itself up onto the platform of the robotics workbench, located in the corner directly beside the two terminals. “Oh, it’s going to be just wonderful to get a once-over from you. I dearly appreciate the attention.”

“Of course. You know I’d do just about anything for you.” It’s my fault you’re all banged up in the first place.

The fluorescent hum intensified, and the brightness of the space followed suit soon after. He took a seat and leaned over the arms of the workbench to plug Angel in. Then, he sat back and turned to the terminal and plugged his Pip-Boy keyprong into it.

“See you in a few hours, Angel.”

“Just a quick nap, ha-ha!”

Once the Mister Handy had powered down, he got to work. He started with preliminary diagnostic scans. Tethered to his place, he scanned the space for any tools he would need to fix Angel’s thruster. He quickly got lost in the size of the mainframe. He shook his head of it, and stood to lean over to open Angel’s compartment. He pushed his effects aside to reach the false bottom compartment. His heart stuttered with his hands on the lid. He gently pulled out the officer’s coat, just enough to unfold one end. His eyes widened to feel something stiff in the fabric: not a decoy object, but a STAR Core. He tucked it back inside, and sat back down with an even greater unease.

He told Angel, “I should have brought something to read."

A few minutes later, Fresnel walked back through with a clipboard, engrossed in the walls. ‘Choly presumed she was holding another conversation with the architecture, and left her to her work at first.

“Hierosacristan,” he hesitated. She stopped pacing about. “Would it be all right if we talked?”

“Did you have something in mind?”

“I don’t want to distract you from your studies. If it’s not a good time--"

“--I can make time.” She finished her train of thought and invited discussion with an attentive glance tossed his way. She turned a fresh page and continued. “This sounds important.”

“We haven’t really gotten a chance to talk in private just yet.” His ears rang, to have stumbled into the timing of it. He thought again to how his shower went that morning. “You disclosed something quite personal about yourself before I left Ant Lane in October. I don’t think that anyone would know that about you, without you telling them. I-- I don’t feel convincing. How do you manage it?”

She stopped sketching long enough to process the nature of the conversation he endeavored to have.

“Nonsense,” she snipped, not irate but rather dismissive. “Even if that were true, what does it matter? You know what you are. Atom knows what you are. You sound like you yourself think your identity is some kind of pretense. Some kind of act.”

“Still,” he insisted. “You’re very convincing. I’ve had trouble believing that you’re anything like me. I’m not asking you to prove anything, though, I swear. I do believe you. I suppose… I’m envious that, if you’ve got to be transsexual, your genetics are still extremely in your favor. Forget I said anything. You probably never have to deal with people questioning or misunderstanding you like that. And you probably never deal with feeling gross for how you are.”

For some time, she resumed intently annotating on her clipboard. He sat on his hands to keep from fidgeting with his finger joints. She eventually let out a long rough exhale.

“Why would you think I never struggle with either of those things? Anyone can have those feelings and experiences on occasion, no matter how they are.”

“Well, how do you deal with it, then?”

“I’ve embraced the things that I like best about myself. I’m not around other people long enough for it to really matter whether they understand who I am. It’s gotten easier in the time since I’ve become a hierosacristan. Most Atomites recognize my features and my armor, and know who I am by my status. Still, for how honored I am to be able to wear my travel gear, there are times I like to wear something less high-profile. I needn't wear my devotion to have it. And I needn't wear specific things to justify that I'm a woman.”

“Well said.” He got a bit distant inside himself, folding his hands in his lap with a faint smile. “People like us aren’t anything new, you know. There were a few medical procedures available before the war for things of that nature, but they were costly and not well refined. I’d be surprised if any of that science has developed further since that time. I fear I missed out.”

“This is all because you don’t think it’s possible I’ve pursued medical treatments?” She flustered, and had to sit on the side of a mainframe section. “I’ve had some access to what’s called an Auto-Doc--but it’s dangerous to reach, and I’ve only gone to it three times in my life.”

He picked up his jaw to stare with indignity.

“Bullshit. Auto-Docs couldn’t do that.” When she shrank back at the accusation, he dialed himself back to mere disbelief. “Something that could cure me of my me, I’d risk my life for it! It’s not somewhere only Daughters can go, is it? Or at least, only Atomites?”

“--It is. That’s right.” She stared off at the polished concrete a moment.

She had a reason for guarding a straight answer, one ‘Choly couldn’t guess. He'd become an Atomite in a heartbeat if it meant being able to access such a treatment, but she hadn't meant it. When she found him eyeing her expectantly, trying to parse what she could be avoiding saying, she smiled and patted the clipboard in her lap.

“I’m woman enough to be a Daughter,” she told herself, her enthusiasm swelling gradually as she spoke. “I’m not the only Daughter like myself, either. The Gift seems somewhat genetic, and associated more often with this type of body. Oh, do tell me whether you too can hear the Granite!”

“What, I, no. No, I can’t.” He hemmed. “I’m sure that’s something only women can do.”

Her enthusiasm faded in an instant, and she froze in place. She abruptly stood and excused herself to continue studying in the corridor.

“Thank you for turning the light back on,” he called off after her.

She eventually replied, “De rien.”

Before ‘Choly could get tangled up in the taste of both feet in his mouth, the robotics workbench clicked and hummed. Its arms engaged and lowered. He checked the scan progress on the terminal. Primary data sector integrity looked to have recovered to 96%, but memory integrity still sat at 84%. Several main systems had gone offline due to hardware malfunctions, not programming. He drummed his fingers on the short desktop in thought. He input the commands for the hydraulic arms to cradle Angel’s chassis and lift it up.

“I guess my first order of business is mechanical maintenance after all.” He unplugged his keyprong from the terminal, and stood to collect tools. As he knelt down and got to dismantling the thruster collar with a ratchet wrench, he chuckled to himself. “Ahh, if only it were as easy for a human to swap out body parts as it is to service components on a robot. Everyone would benefit from that, I think.”

Fresnel came back through lost in thought, very clearly listening with her full faculties. Where she’d been distraught in October, now she seemed awed and fascinated. He glanced up at her from where he’d sat down in the floor of the circular workbench, cleaning out all the mud and debris from Angel’s pilot light well and exhaust ports.

“Did you ask if I can hear it because you hear it, Fresnel? What’s it telling you?”

“That’s between me and the Granite,” she uttered aside, as though answering him threatened to interrupt the conversation she held with the building.

“Okay, I can’t leave it alone.” He threw his hands in his lap. “You gave the Sacristan a STAR Core. Where did it come from?”

She smiled at him, though her gaze seemed a mile behind him.

“I couldn't risk the chance you'd show up empty-handed. He told me you mentioned the existence of more. I’ve had people scouting for beached crates, and paying them extra if the crates are retrieved unopened. I have not told him that I’ve done this, or that non-Children are working on retrieving them. I got lucky this morning. My scavvers found a crate. I decided I’d give him one of mine, so that we could keep yours.” She began her return to Earth. “We have to find them first, so that no one else can bring attention to them.”

“You found one of our crate--" He clammed up, recognizing that she not only possessed their car now, but their bargaining chips as well. With a sorry tone, he asked her, “...How is your assessment going? I take it you found the breaker back there.”

“The generator is undamaged. Its model takes fusion cores. Several need replacement, but I only brought one with me.”

“It takes… seven, wasn’t it? I certainly thought it was odd the blueprints didn’t call for a full reactor, for how much power it must take for the mall to operate off-grid. But, I’m no engineer. Maybe it makes more sense to you.”

“How did you know that without seeing the interface?”

“I’ve read the AEGIS manual.”

“And you have this… manual with you? Where? It wasn’t in your robot.”

“So you did go in its compartment. I will admit, I thought you took the STAR Core from it when you gave the other one to the Sacristan. But no, I don’t think the manual survived the flooding. We were packing everything up when-- Well, when we got washed away.”

“We will endeavor even harder to reclaim the crates, then. You ask if it makes more sense to me, yes. The generator only uses three at a time, and alternates the load to recharge the rest.”

“You said you only brought one. Are you able to get more?”

“I’m not worried. They’re easy enough to find.”

She restlessly reviewed all the notes she’d taken so far. He got everything cleaned out of Angel that he could, replaced its thruster collar, and eased himself up to sit in the office chair.

“Sorry if I overstepped before. It’s no excuse, but I haven’t had the opportunity to talk to someone else about gender issues before.”

“Oh, no, no.” She shook her head with a taut, pursed grimace, and flipped back to the first page to set it all flat. “It’s not that. If half the FC’s have been dead, that means that, all this time, the Lane’s shields have been at half power, and that the building will function even better once I can replace the generator’s dead FCs. But… that’s only if we can get the building repaired in full. It has me still thinking about the Mayor’s announcement earlier today.”

His head picked up, and he shifted from apology to attention.

“I must have missed that while I was in the shower.”

“The Hall must approve all future alterations to the building. Knott said that the plumbing was the last vital asset required to sustain interior living conditions, and that everything else is ‘purely cosmetic.’ I have not yet spoken with the Sacristan how we should proceed, or whether to proceed. I wished to study this space before I talked to him.”

“I understand why I can't, but why can’t you both just… tell Knott about the AEGIS?”

“The fewer non-Atomites know about the workings of this building, the better. I do agree with Haidinger on this much. It matters not, from whose mouth it comes.”

Hydraulic components in the Robotics Workbench clicked as Angel powered back on. It attempted to reignite its pilot, only to clink back down on the lift. 'Choly and Fresnel both turned to it, at the ready to assist as needed. It tried again. Just as 'Choly stood to approach, his heart stuttered. A third series of clicks and hisses yielded a successful thruster flame. He eased back into the chair with relief, and clipped his Pip-Boy keyprong into the terminal to load the results of his tinkering.

"General Atomics International Mister Handy, 2066 model, nickname 'Angel.' Custom order serialization 33013021102113. Good afternoon, Sir."

"Welcome back. I did better repairing your data than I thought. Your hydraulics could use some additional calibration, but you're afloat. I hate to say it, but I can't clean out your condensators today. We're on a strict time table."

"I appreciate any attention my systems can get, especially when you're able to lend your own. I will say, however…" It set itself back onto the workbench and extinguished its flame. "My current fuel tank is almost exhausted. I should preserve what I have until it's absolutely necessary."

"Good thinking, Angel," he praised with hollow reflex, not looking up from the Pip-Boy screen. "We'll locate a refill and top you off next time. Hopefully this will tide you over until later this week."

"I'm confident in your repairs, Mister Carey--and confident that I can better look after you now."

"We have a lot more work to do," he reminded it. He placed a weak hand on it, and gave it just as weak a smile. "I know I have my diagnostics software to help guide us to what needs repairs and tuning, but don't hesitate to compile a list of anything you'd like us to work on for you as well, my friend. You deserve to have the body and programming that you want to have. The best I can give you."

"I'm General Atomics' finest. I would be hard pressed to believe another in my line was constructed and maintained as well as I."

A hesitant "I'll do my best" was the only objection to form.

He glanced over to see Fresnel still stood by, observing him work. She cleared her throat.

"I study all manner of nuclear technologies from before the Great Division, including robots like your Angel." A vague smile warmed in her cheeks. "It's… nice, to see someone regard equipment with the same tenderness as a loved one. I don't often encounter others with any familiarity with nuclear devices, especially not in the Hinter."

"Because of the Fog. Right."

"Technology is human in origin. If it cannot withstand Atom's breath, then its inversion reminds it what it is, sinks it back to nuclear fuel." She sighed, but her smile remained. "This building is… a rarity. I'm having trouble believing I'm standing in a mainframe room well within the range of the Fog, and the computer still works. Angel seems just as special, somehow."

"You… agree, then, that the AEGIS must be repaired?"

She stared at him with resolve.

"Of course. The only way I would ever approve of the Granite bellowing itself apart is if it could… become manifest."

‘Choly scrunched his nose a bit, to stifle a chuckle.

“But we saw it. We all saw it. Some of us remember it. You remember, don’t you? I got the impression you’re one of the few who didn’t forget that day.”

Fresnel’s shoulders sank in resignation. Her eyes shut as her head tilted side to side.

“Another topic he and I disagree on. I held onto my memory, yes. As a Daughter, I cannot disclose what I saw. Anything intended to be known to anyone else, they will recall on their own in time.”

He bristled. I’m going to regret promising Haidinger a copy of my transcript, aren’t I?

“You do understand,” she pressed, “that we cannot tell Mayor Knott about this… AEGIS, as you called it. Her dominion is the people, not the building in which they live, no matter how much she and her kin believe otherwise. It is for Atom’s Children only, to be intimate with this place.”

“You’re not going to try to kill me, too, are you? Fuck-Me-in-the-Mouth, I’m not going to tell, all right…” He huffed and initiated the hydraulics to lower Angel and disengage. “What even is it about this place you’re all excited over. I understand the Granite is special to your lot, but that’s just the Granite.”

Angel crawled out of the robotics workbench, but kept quiet.

“The structure is one of the only examples of architecture that didn’t only use Granite, but was designed for the Granite. We know it is special, but we do not yet know how exactly those before the Great Division could have known this much about how a nuclear Nor’easter would summon sacred borealis.”

Every attempt to ply her for explanations set him back three steps. He pinched at his eye sockets behind his sunglasses.

“Then he hasn’t shared with you what he knows about the architect or caretaker?”

“I know that he knows more than he tells me. Still, something bothers me.”

His head perked, and he leveled his gaze as he turned to her.

“What is it? Everything we discuss back here, stays between us.”

She hesitated to extrapolate for some time. The words fell out with an uncertain tremor.

“There’s… simply too much copper here. I’ve never… seen so much copper. It concerns me… It has to be why he refuses to permit anyone back here. He knows it would do more than concern many Atomites.”

“The copper is why Lockreed deemed it too costly to manufacture other AEGIS structures. There are other sites that use STAR Cores, but as far as I’ve read in Lockreed documents, this is the only AEGIS structure they made. Copper was the first precious metal affected by war rationing. Steel, aluminum, and tin came next.”

Her hesitance melted into a resigned grief. A sad sliver of a smile stitched across her eyes.

“He allowed me back here because he knows I won’t tell anyone, either. And that I would ensure you understand just how crucial it is that you also tell no one.”

He shook his head, too. He didn’t quite follow, but he knew not to question that she’d confided in him something of extreme delicateness.

“I doubt there’s anyone else here with the engineering experience to understand what copper’s even for. I don’t even really grasp most of what I read in the manual.”

Her smile broadened, and the glint in her eye returned.

“I will manage without the manual. For now, I have plenty of information to study. Are you at a stopping point? We should get back to the Concourse soon.”

He mirrored her smile, and unplugged his Pip-Boy so he could stand. He consciously postured his back, and started toward the corridor.

“I think we’ll manage until we’re allowed another visit to the work station, yes. Fresnel?”

“I’m coming.”

“I just wanted to thank you. I know you don’t think I understand, and I probably don’t. But… thank you. For talking with me, and trying to make me understand. I would understand if you had no patience for me.”

“And I needn’t remind that patience is a virtue,” Angel said. “You’re quite virtuous, I would say.”

She chuckled.

“Then you grasp just how much patience is required to contend with your owner?”

“Yes, well. I’m sure you’d be a bit opaque and difficult, too, if you were cryogenically frozen for two centuries, and woke up to the current state of things.”

“You know I was difficult before all that.” Awkward exasperation cracked his voice.

“You’re… prewar?” They stopped when ‘Choly could no longer hear her steps reverberate. “By Atom, it all makes sense.”

“What, exactly, makes sense?”

“Your demeanor matches many Undying I have met. I thought all this time it’s because they transfix you so, and that you emulated them in your speech.”

“I’m sure you don’t know how much I take that as flattery.”

“I don’t compare many to the Undying.” She flashed him a broad smile.

She tossed a fusion cell from one of her pockets onto the floor and cracked it against the polished concrete under her heel. Then, she picked it up and traced along the panels and conduits on the wall until she found the sweet spot. Her fingers tensed to squeeze the battery casing ever so slightly. The mechanisms in the panel disengaged, and the pocket door slid toward them a few inches before it would permit them to exit.

“Why would a shopping mall have doors that unlock when exposed to radiation?” Angel mumbled. “It always strikes me so singularly.”

Fresnel clenched the broken battery in her fist, savoring the success, and took the lead on their way cutting back through Anchor Inn.

“Something fried the circuitry on several hydraulic doors in the Lane,” she explained without her stride skipping a beat. “The only way for them to complete their connection is to expose them to a small burst of concentrated gamma radiation. To use a prewar term… it takes hotwiring.”

“And here I thought the Sacristan’s secret interrogation room was sealed with occult magic,” ‘Choly joked.

“I suppose he might object to repairing everything in the Lane.”

‘Choly sniffed, and scrunched his nose to push up his sunglasses.

“Only the most important parts.”

“Only the most important parts,” Angel and Fresnel echoed in near-unison.

“When do you suppose he’ll let us in there again? I’d like to use the workbench one more time before we leave.”

“Even if it isn’t tomorrow, there is only so much he can do if Atom wishes to whisper open the door for us.”

“I know I don’t need to say it, but be careful.” His breath stuttered a bit. “The last thing anyone in this place needs is to get on Haidinger’s bad side.”

“You needn’t get on mine, either, Monsieur Melancholy.” She turned to face him, gave him a short jerking bow and a sneer, and clicked her heels. “You might find there are more painful things than being branded by Atom’s Light. But I like you. And I like helping you.”

“Well. You do know what you’re doing. I didn’t say it to give you the impression I distrusted you.”

“I get the feeling we trust each other more than either of us thinks. Good afternoon.”

“Good afternoon.” Angel gave a royal wave, though she didn’t see it. “Did that go well? I can’t tell if that went well.”

‘Choly continued on to the GCC. He appreciated that the relocation meant he could avoid stairs.

“I’d like it if you kept my prewar status between us in the future, if you could.”

“You disclose it for shock value all the time, Sir. I figured it was fair game. Did I upset you?”

“No, no. And I don’t think she took it the wrong way. I just have a feeling there are some who will.”

“...Like Mister Jared.”

“Yes, like Mister Jared.”

“M-- Melancholy!” Bledsoe spotted them from his desk in the back corner, and scrambled to rush over to them. He quietened his tone, and shielded onward glances with one hand to the side of his face. “Melancholy, you’ve got to help me.”

“Did something happen while I was out?”

“I took a dose of that Daddy-O you left for me. Now, two of my patients won’t speak to me.” Anxious and gnashing apart the filter of his cigarette, he snatched ‘Choly by both wrists. “You’ve got to fix this. Make me some DayTripper. I’m begging you.”

“Unhand him, Mister Bledsoe.”

‘Choly squirmed. Static prickled in his ears.

“I. I can’t.”

“You have to! This is your fault.” Bledsoe dragged him further into the Clinic, and he could hardly keep up with his gait.

“What! How is it my fault! Have you never taken that stuff before?” ‘Choly remembered to keep his voice down. The moment they were in the back end, Bledsoe turned him loose. ‘Choly shut the door once Angel had joined them. “Have you never taken that stuff before? Why would you take it when you had social obligations!”

“Don’t lecture me, you prick. Not when I think I’ve fucked up this bad. I don’t need this from you on top of getting heat from my patients.” He lit up a fresh cigarette, and began to pace the narrow hall while he finished off the previous one to discard it. “Just tell me what you need in order to make it. I won’t let Sticks be in charge of the price tag, but I’ll let you.”

“I mean to say I literally can’t make DayTripper.”

Liam erupted with a scoff, and vanished into the dining room.

“Yet you can magically make one of the rarest prewar chems out of, let me get this straight--a typewriter ribbon, cigarettes, and coffee.” He heard the snap of a pull tab can. “What, do you need seven rare colors of sewing thread, the piss of an extinct animal, and a photograph of your mother?”

“Low humor, to jeer about one’s mother,” Angel muttered.

Despite how small he felt to be on the receiving end, ‘Choly still stood as straight and firm as he could in the doorway.

“A degree in Quantum Chemistry. I don’t have one.”

“--A what. You made that up just now.”

“I wish I had. It’s too bad I haven’t got any MREs left.”

Bledsoe massaged his nose bridge with his smoking hand, and gesticulated with his Vim.

“I haven’t heard of any Emery chem. Talk some sense, man. Just fix this. You’re some kind of a walking chem encyclopedia. I’ll take any chem you think would help.”

‘Choly squinted through Bledsoe’s meltdown. Eventually, a sliver of a smirk quirked one corner of his mouth before vanishing altogether. He took a seat at the laminated table, and motioned for Bledsoe to join him. Bledsoe preferred to remain standing, so he could pace.

“Now, you meant it when you promised you’d handle ingredient procurement for me.”

“Whatever you need, Sticks and I can probably scrape together just about anything.”

‘Choly folded his hands on the tabletop.

“You’ll let me borrow your phlebotomy equipment. Before we leave.”

“Done. I can already feel you bleeding me dry.”

“And does the area grow Tarberry?”

“Is that all?”

‘Choly gestured for Bledsoe to hand him the Steno and pen from the counter where he’d been working that morning, and he got to writing with a playful murmur.

“Oh, this grocery list comes second nature. Mind you, I told you where the Daddy-O was, but I did not tell you to use any of it. If you can get me the brand name, I might be persuaded to share.”

“You’re supposed to be making me chems!”

“The Mentats and Melancholia are medically necessary. What I make with this list will be… occupationally necessary.”

“Occupationally--"

“--I relied on several chems for my tenure in the US Army. Either you will help me function at the capacity you’re demanding of me, or you and Sticks will have nothing of interest to show for it. You and I, we’re intelligent men. But, we’re no quantum chemists.”

‘Choly met gazes with him. Bledsoe soured first, and took another drink of his Vim.

“What I’m hearing is you promised me you could do something, when you can’t. Can you do this or not? And how the hell did you make the Daddy-O, if it’s so wicked beyond you?”

‘Choly marinated on a way to explain his morning succinctly, relishing the ability to bend the medic’s arm a bit. He drummed at the table a bit in thought.

When he had browsed the MKEXCEED Papers for ideas, he had started with an arbitrary flip to Unit VII: Luck-Adjacent Chems. Only DayTripper had come to mind at the time, as far as chems he knew and that he might find in this unit. Drugstores commonly displayed the chem for sale alongside No-Gesta, with the tandem slogan ‘Get Lucky, with None of the Headache.’[96-2] Its entry in the MKX only listed the standard synthesis via precursor, and synthesis via a shorthand formula.

Now, the MKX seemed to posit two avenues to increase postwar accessibility to the chemistry for its encyclopedic pharmacology. Since Deenwood had allegedly compiled and revised this data for nearly two centuries, they had hit similar obstructions in their studies as he had with the Merrick Pharmacopeia. The primary proposed method substituted the scarce compounds. Through reverse analysis, the authors had deduced everyday sources for otherwise inaccessible compounds. He had not yet determined the means to decipher the instructions provided in the other method.

If it weren’t some manner of pharmacological shorthand, it had to be a cipher. It more resembled the unruly marriage of advanced mathematics and sentence diagrams than it did any chemistry he knew, and it nearly read as alchemical. Why did the formula lines curl and intersect in places? He regretted never learning calculus, but also supposed it wouldn’t have helped him with this regardless.

Still, it had given him such a headache just trying to scan it for any command of methodology that he’d justified taking Mentats that morning. The lights hadn’t been bothering him with the sunglasses, but these formulas? He dreaded what it would take to inevitably cook up √X-Cell for Sticks when the need arose.

But here, Bledsoe’s predicament provided him the perfect opportunity to study quantum chemistry and understand what it stood to represent. Just having access to the MKX method of shortcut constituents like he’d pulled with the Daddy-O had been huge, sure, but Sticks wasn’t the only one of them compelled to procure these bizarre recently declassified substances. He and Sticks had a deal, and he intended to make good on it to the best of his abilities… and hell, if it wouldn’t provide him a satisfyingly maddening challenge to boot.

“My laundry list there is no substitute for any PhD, but using the chems it'll craft for study is the next closest thing.” He smiled a little too wide. “You’ll find I’m capable of anything, given the right chem.”

Bledsoe draped himself down on the table, eyes desperate with interest.

“And me? Chopped liver?”

“You're asking if you could make a chemist out of you? We'll see. I have the feeling we both stand to learn a great deal from one another. Don't worry. You'll come back from our vacation in fantastic shape.”

"When we get back?" Any begging that lingered in Bledsoe's voice deflated. "We don't leave for days… Ohh, I can't wait to leave!"

"Maybe next time, you'll listen to me when I say look, don't touch."

Medicine Chest in Your Backyard-The Lost Book Of Remedies Pdf Download

What could be much easier than growing an herb garden with no effort? Naturally, you'll have to harvest your weeds, however, you would do that anyhow: it's called weeding.

Spring is a particularly fertile time for gathering your weeds - roots and all - and turning them into medicines. Here then are some suggestions on how to find, harvest, prepare, and utilize a baker's dozen (13) of common weeds that probably currently grow around you.

To make your medicines you'll require glass jars of numerous sizes with tight-fitting lids. And a minimum of a pint each of apple cider vinegar (pasteurized), vodka (100 proof is best, but 80 proof will do), and pure olive oil (not additional virgin) or good quality animal fat such as lanolin, lard, or stomach fat from a lamb or kid. You will likewise want a knife, a cutting board, and some rags to mop up spills.

In general, you will fill a container (of any size) with coarsely-chopped fresh, but dry, plant product. (Do not wash any part of the plant other than roots, if you are using them, and be sure to dry those well with a towel before putting them in your container.) Then you will fill the jar with your menstruum, which is the vinegar, the oil, or the alcohol. Label well and permit to stand at space temperature level, out of the sunshine for at least 6 weeks prior to decanting and utilizing. (See my book Recovery Wise for more specific info on making preparations.).

A field guide is practical for positively recognizing your weeds. The one I like best is A Guide to the Recognition of New Zealand Common Weeds in Colour, complied by E. A. Upritchard. (Offered from the New Zealand Weed And Pest Control Society, P.O. Box 1654, Palmerston North) This book even shows you how the weeds look when they are emerging.

Ready? OK! Let's go outside with a plant id guide or skilled herbalist and see what we can find.

Shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa pastoris) is an annual in the mustard family. Cut the leading half of the plant when it has actually formed its little heart-shaped "bags" (seed pods) and make a tincture (with alcohol), which you can use to stop bleeding. Midwives and females who bleed greatly during their period praise their timely effectiveness. Gypsies claim it works on the stomach and lungs too. A dose is 1 dropperful (1ml); which may be duplicated up to four times a day.

Cleavers (Gallium aparine) is a persistent, sticky plant that grows profusely in abandoned lots and the edges of cultivated land. The entire plant is used to reinforce the lymphatic activity. I cut the top two-thirds of each plant while it is in flower (or setting seeds) and utilize alcohol to make a tincture that relieves tender, swollen breasts, PMS symptoms, and allergic reactions. A dose is 15-25 drops (.5 - 1 ml); repeated as needed.

Chickweed (Stellaria media) has many usages, consisting of scrumptious salad greens. I cut the whole top of the plant and consume it or utilize alcohol to make a tincture, which dissolves cysts, tonifies the thyroid, and aids in weight-loss. Dosage is a dropperful (1 ml), up to 3 times a day.

Daisy (Bellis perennis) is a typical perennial weed of yards and open locations. Rather different from the native daisy (Lagenifera petiolata), the little English daisy is related to feverfew and has similar capabilities. I use the leaves and flowers to make a cast (with alcohol) or medicinal vinegar which eliminates headaches, muscle pain, and allergy signs. Dosage is a dropper full of the tincture (1 ml), approximately twice a day; or a tablespoon of the vinegar in the early morning.

Dandelion (Taraxacum Officinalis) is a persistent seasonal of lawns and gardens and among the very best known medical herbs worldwide. (The native dandelion of New Zealand - Taraxacum magellanicum - is medical too.)

Those who enjoy a pure green yard curse the warm yellow flowers of typical dandelion. But those who want to see charm anywhere (such as kids and herbalists) treasure this weed. You can use any part of the dandelion - the root, the leaves, the flowers, even the flower stalk - to make a cast or medical vinegar which reinforces the liver.

A dosage of 10-20 drops of the tincture (.5 -1 ml) eases gas, heartburn, and indigestion, in addition to promoting healthy bowel movements. A tablespoon of the vinegar works well, too. More importantly, taken before meals, dandelion boosts the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, hence increasing the bio-availability of many nutrients, especially calcium.

The fresh or prepared green leaves are filled with carotenes, those anti-cancer, anti-heart disease helpers. And the oil of the flowers is a crucial massage balm for preserving healthy breasts. (There's lots more information on dandelions in Healing Wise.).

Dock, also called yellow dock, curly dock, and broad dock is a seasonal plant, which my Native American grandmas use for "all females' problems." The Maori call it Pae Whenua or runa. It is another plant that disagrees with sheep, especially when the land is overgrazed.

I dig the yellow roots of Rumex Crispus or R. obtusifolius and tincture them in alcohol to utilize as an ally when the body's immune system or the liver requires help. A dose is 15-25 drops (.5 -1 ml). I also gather the leaves and/or seeds throughout the growing season and make medicinal vinegar, taken a tablespoon at a time, which is used to increase blood levels of iron, lower menstrual flooding and cramping, and balance hormone levels.

If the chopped roots are taken in oil for six weeks, the resulting lotion is advantageous for keeping the breasts healthy.

Groundsel (Senecio vulgaris) and Ragwort (Senecio jacobea) are hardy perennials that have credibility for poisoning animals, like their cousin tansy. Although bad for sheep, these 2 Senecios are some of the world's most ancient healing plants, having actually been discovered in a severe 60,000 years of age.

You can utilize the blooming tops and leaves with your alcohol to make a tincture which acts gradually to tonify the reproductive organs, ease PMS, and stop extreme menstrual pain. Dosage is 5-10 drops (.2 -.5 ml) daily, utilized just once a day, but for at least 3 months. (A bigger dosage is utilized to accelerate labor.).

Mallows (Malva neglecta, M. parviflora, M. Sylvestre) grow well in disregarded gardens and are remarkably deep-rooted. The flowers, leaves, stalks, seeds, and roots are abundant in sticky mucilage which is finest extracted by soaking the fresh plant in cold water overnight or longer or by making a medical vinegar.

The starch is extraordinarily soothing internally (reducing sore throats, upset stomachs, heartburn, irritable bowel, colic, constipation, and gastrointestinal disorder) and externally (relieving bug bites, burns, sprains, and aching eyes). The leaves, flowers, and bark (especially) of the native Hohere (Hoheria populnea) are utilized in precisely the same way by Maori herbalists.

Plantain, likewise called ribwort, pig's ear, and the bandaid plant is a typical weed of yards, driveways, parks, and playgrounds. Determine it by the 5 parallel veins running the length of each leaf. You may discover broadleaf plantain (Plantago significant) with broad leaves or narrow leaf plantain (Plantago lanceolata) with lance-thin leaves.

Either can be utilized to make a recovery poultice or a relaxing oil commonly considered as one of the very best injury therapists around. Not only does plantain boost the speed of healing, it likewise eases pain, stops bleeding, draws out foreign matter, stops itching, avoids and stops allergic reactions from bee stings, kills germs, and minimizes swelling.

Attempt a plaster or a generous application of plantain oil or lotion (made by thickening the oil with beeswax) on sprains, cuts, insect bites, rashes, chafed skin, boils, swellings, chapped and cracked lips, rough or sore hands, infant's diaper location, and burns.

To make a fresh plantain poultice: Pick a leaf, chew it well and put it on the boo-boo. "Like magic" the pain, itching, and swelling vanish, fast! (Yes, you can dry plantain leaves and carry them in your first aid kit. Chew like you would fresh leaves.).

To make plantain ointment: Pick large fresh plantain leaves. Slice coarsely. Fill a clean, dry, glass jar with the chopped leaves. Put pure olive oil into the leaves, poking about with a chopstick until the container is completely full of oil and all air bubbles are released.

Cap well. Place container in a little bowl to gather any overflow. Wait 6 weeks. Then stress oil out of the plant product, squeezing well. Measure the oil. Heat it gently, including one tablespoon of grated beeswax for each liquid ounce of oil. Pour into jars and permit to cool.

St. Joan's/ John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) This stunning perennial wildflower might be disliked by sheep farmers but herbalists love it. The flowering tops are collected after they begin to bloom (generally on Solstice, June 21) and prepared with alcohol, and with oil, to make two of the most beneficial remedies in my first-aid package.

Tincture of St. Joan's wort not just lends one a warm disposition, it dependably alleviates muscle aches, is an effective anti-viral and is my first-choice treatment for those with shingles, sciatica, back pain, neuralgia, and headaches consisting of migraines. The usual dose is 1 dropperful (1 ml) as frequently as needed.

In extreme pain from a muscle spasm in my thigh, I utilized a dropperful every twenty minutes for two hours, or until the pain totally subsided. St. Joan's wort oil stops cold sores in their tracks and can even eliminate herpes signs. I utilize it as a sunblock. Contrary to common belief, St. Joan's wort does not cause sun level of sensitivity; it avoids it. It even prevents burns from radiation treatment. Eases sore muscles, too.

Self-recover (Prunella vulgaris) This odorless perennial mint is one of the great unsung therapists in the world. The leaves and flowers contain more antioxidants - which prevent cancer and heart problem, among other healthy traits - than any other plant checked. And as part of the mint family, self-recover is imbued with great deals of minerals, especially calcium, making it an especially essential ally for pregnant, nursing, menopausal, and post-menopausal females.

I put self recover leaves in salads in the spring and fall, make a medicinal vinegar with the flowers throughout the summer, and prepare the flowering tops (fresh or dried) in winter soups.

Usnea (Usnea barbata) is that many-stranded grey lichen hanging out of the branches of your apple trees or the Monterey pines planted in the plantation over there or in almost any native tree in areas of the South Island Alps, where it is referred to as angiangi to the Maori. If in doubt of your recognition:

Pull a hair gently apart with your hands, searching for a white fiber inside the fuzzy grey-green external coat. To prepare usnea, harvest at any time of the year, taking care not to take too much. Usnea grows gradually. Put your harvest in a cooking pan and just cover it with cold water. Boil for about 15-25 minutes, or until the water is orange and minimized by at least half. Put usnea and water into a container, filling it to the top with plant material.

(Water should disappear than half of the container.) Include the greatest proof of alcohol you can buy. After 6 weeks this tincture is ready to work for you as an outstanding antibacterial, countering infection throughout the body. Dosage is a dropperful (1 ml) as regularly as every two hours in intense circumstances.

Yarrow (Achellia millefolium) This beautiful perennial weed is grown in numerous herb gardens for it has a wide variety of uses. Cut the flowering tops (use just white-flowering yarrow) and use your alcohol to make a strongly-scented cast that you can take internally to prevent colds and influenza. (A dose is 10-20 drops of up to 1 ml).

Pick single-fixing items.

"Numerous fixing items, particularly natural mixes, have the most elevated paces of tainting," says Dr. Cooperman. Be careful about "exclusive mixes," exhorts Thomas. "It implies that the enhancement organization doesn't need to list the specific measure of every individual fixing, so you don't know precisely what you're getting."

Go for reliable, not hot and new.

Collagen also contains chondroitin and glucosamine, both of which may benefit joint health. It may support the fluids, functioning and integrity of the cartilage within joints, thus promoting joint health.
