They have 1880s technology, Lumi, not an 1880s mindset. Charlotte was born--and died--in modern times, and retained what she learned in medical school for use in Purgatory.

Ahhhhhhhh. Okay. Still wouldn't be able to treat lung cancer with 1880s technology.

That's why she's telling Shilo off.

I will be doing some more advertising, too, but this is going to be an effort for everybody.

I've already contacted a few people. Do I need to contact more?

If you can and feel like it, please do. I am not demanding that people advertise, so do it at your own chance.

...Someone close to her got kidnapped, eh?

...I don't recall anyone other than Charlotte getting kidnapped.

Why do I feel like Amber's going to try and seduce Charlotte? After all, she wasn't there to see what almost happened(but Shilo was totally cool so it didn't, yay!) and wouldn't know that it would scare Charlotte half to death...

...and then Shilo would probably have protective instincts activated, and Amber would get clocked...

...This needs to happen.

"close" as in at least friends. Amber goes over all the time, occupationally, so a decent relationship (as in, not love, but the neutral "has some kind of social connection such as friends, acquaintances, etc.) where she would care for her health and be deeply distressed if she died.

Hey, I have a question.

How would one actually be able to renter and progress onto the story if able to at this time?

...That's funny because Charlotte's feelings towards Amber are somewhere between ambivalence, hatred, and sheer terror.

we are finished with the episode, so we have downtime. This is the perfect time to re-enter, just figure out where to put him back in. Anything works (within reason).

Alright cool.

I'll probably have Drake wake up at his apartment craving for food or something. Maybe even get his lazy ass up and look for a job.

stores might be closed, but I could maybe wave it away saying that maybe the cops gave out a message to store owners and civvies in Purgatory that it is safe to move about at night once more. *uses magic OP powers*

Does time work in a linear fashion in purgatory. Like if I were to die right now would it be the same year in purgatory or does time operate at a different scale than the physical world?

depends. I will leave that up to interpretation. Time is kinda flimsy in Purgatory, so it could be both, one, the other, or neither all at different occasions. Up to you.

So it would not be out of the realm of possibility for someone to be from, say the 2050's and only be just arriving?

general idea is that earth is in the year of 2016. You can be from any time period before that, but the hard enddate is 2016.
