[ There's a scruffy, friendly-lookin dude front and center here, sort of recognizable as the slightly older, longer-haired version that used to go around being stuffy and formal. This sheepish smile is pretty uncharacteristic of him from back then, though. ]

Hello! I'm Ashraf. I was here a while ago, co-director of the transport-run clinic? [ He offers a wave. ] So hello again to anyone that knew me. I'm sorry in advance if I don't remember you very well, it's been about fifty years on my end! [ says the guy who doesn't look a day over 20 ]

So, anyway— I figured this could be a long shot, but... does anyone have a way with clothing?

[ Here's where the sheepish smile makes a triumphant return. He pulls up a pair of beautifully embroidered robes, obviously expensive, but currently full of violent-looking rips, tears, and a bullet hole or two. There's also some bloodstains left over from attempts to wash them out. ]

I tried, I really did. At this point, I think it's going to take magic to set these straight. Or a whole new set, maybe. So, um... any takers? I could pay!

Fifty years, and yet your appearance does not seem to show it.

[highhealplz]

What can I say? I age well.

[sacrificar]

There is no other reason?

[highhealplz]

Well, admittedly, I was born again about twenty years ago, so that has something to do with it too.

[sacrificar]

[that's the sort of answer she was looking for.]

And you remained as you were?

[highhealplz]

Actually, I'm told I looked a lot like a newborn.

A second opportunity, though different from here.
