[Po is lying on his back somewhere, the video of him is from the side. He has a large piece of ice wrapped in cloth across his face. Particularly over his eyes.]
I'm told there are those that know ice magic. If possible, I would like to learn.

[he lifts the ice from his face. One eye is swollen shut while the other is just slightly bruised. Yes, he was in a fight. Yes, it was awesome. Yes, he's paying for it now. He smiles slightly at the video feed before putting the ice back over his eyes.]

I think those in charge of the ice houses are getting tired of me begging for pieces. If not for me, do it for the poor souls whose livelihood I'm threatening.

It's become something of a daily routine.

[He gets it but at the same time his laughing like there's a joke only he's privileged to.]

I would hate to deplete their supply but I'll try some. If it's anything like Raffin's balm, I may still need the ice. [...and he starts to disolve into laughter.]

and something to turn my hair back to it's regular color.

Tell me something, do headache remedies here have the side effect of turning one's hair blue or is that limited to my world?

[uneulogized]

Y'know, I don't think I've heard of that.

[After a beat, he squints at Po suspiciously.]

Are you really that unused to healing medicine, or is there a joke that I'm never gonna get? Not that I don't mind a sense of humor, but I feel a little laughed at right now.

[grandemalion]

I'm used to a certain sort of healing medicine. Where I am used as a test case.

Prince Raffin is a dear friend and herbalist whom I usually get medicines from but he's also... How should I put this? Many of his medicines work quite well but often have odd side-effects. His headache remedy turns hair blue. Or they work nothing like intended and cause more trouble.

I don't think Clarke is in the habit of funny side effects ... especially since it'd give her something else to, ah, give herself grief over. [Sorry, Clarke.]

That said, she should be. We could use the spicing up, especially after that whole silver sickness deal. Surprise changes could make us more able to deal with bad crap.

Perhaps if they're things like healing balms that turn the skin purple. Stomach remedies that make everything taste of chocolate.

Pain remedies that make you smell like roses. [a pause then smirk] Or horse manure. You'll never know which it'll be.

[uneulogized]

You didn't happen to bring any of these here, did you?

[grandemalion]

None with the more entertaining side-effects. I really wish I had.

I'm sure there is a healer somewhere that can create similar concoctions.

[uneulogized]

Right, right, but possibly not the very same healer I'm thinking of. Then again, she did some pretty wicked stuff a couple of months ago. I shouldn't fault her creativity.
