ANNALIESE BLACKLEY is here. Turns out the 51 year-old used to be a pathologist, but now they contribute as a surgeon. Better watch it — they’re known to be both maternal and anxious. They’ve been around for four years, but we’ll keep an eye on them just in case. They remind me of muffled cries in the dead of night, working hard to avoid sleepless nights, a smile desperately trying to remain bright anyway. — raquel cassidy / she/her / cis woman

Biography
Annaliese, affectionately called Anna, was the eldest of the two Blackley daughters. She doesn't remember life without her little sister and from a young age she took great pride in the title of 'big sister. They were a close knit family and Anna always lived near her parents.
She was always very shy growing up, tending to stick to the sides if she could. A typical wallflower. Anna would have a few close friends though that she is extremely loyal too. Loyalty is still a trait she holds dear.
When time came for college Anna decided to go into medicine. She was good at science and wanted to help people. In the end though it didn't work out. Whilst she was good with her studies and even managed a suitable (if slightly serious) bed manner her anxiety worsened. She worried about hurting people or being unable to help.
In the end she became a pathologist, she was able to use what she learnt for medicine and still help people in finding closure.
She worked at a local hospital in Arizona when the virus began. Anna tried to help in the beginning but it spread so quickly. When her own father got bitten when she was away trying to find a group the guilt was too much. She and her sister left their home to find safety and joined the group that set up in the prison.
Anna is likely known by htose in the original group but she didn't take a leadership role like her sister. Shetreid to help anyone who needed it and settled into life.
She campaigned for the doors to be opened to newcomers, again she wanted to help.
Now though Angela died/turned under mysterious circumstances. She feels extreme guilt and grief about it all. She no longer trusts newcomers, unable to believe that the people she's lived with for years would hurt Angela.
Wanted Connections
Partner - can be any gender. Most details can be up for plotting but I like the idea that they are Anna's opposite mannerisms wise so quite outgoing and overly friendly.
Best Friend - Anna's really going through it right now, give her a ride-or-die friend who is by her side and understanding even when she's being rude.

Being a maintenance technician, Hunter had quickly adapted to being on-call; anyone could need him anywhere depending on where the issue was. Thankfully, they were a fast learner so they had already picked up on how to fix most issues. His days were unpredictable, but he didn't mind because that meant that his thoughts were kept away from the things going on outside. Today, they were meeting with a resident in the prison who was having an issue, but they were given little information on what the said problem was.
"Right, so what's wrong?" He inquires, trying to get an idea of where to start.
"Nothing, nothing is wrong." Annaliese snapped. Everything was wrong but that didn't mean she was going to admit it. "I didn't call you my colleagues did but I can work it out myself I do not need help, not from you."
She was being rude and deep down she knew that, a flash of egret making it visible on her face.
Hyunwoo wasn't sure if he was technically allowed up here, but there wasn't exactly a padlock on the door, so he decided to take his chances. Smoking was a habit he wasn't very proud of, and the urge only struck whenever he was incredibly stressed— like now. He flicked the lighter a few times before the flame finally caught and then inhaled the stale nicotine, blowing out a little while later and closing his eyes. The days in Phoenix were mild right now thanks to winter, but the mornings were still cold enough to chill one's bones as the remnants of nighttime freeze warnings ebbed away into yellowing skies. He didn't mind the cold, though. In fact he planned to stay outside for at least an hour when he heard the door to the rooftop access creak and quickly put out his cigarette as if he'd been caught doing something wrong.
"... Hey—" he finally said after a moment, turning his head to see who it was. "I didn't think anyone else would be up this early. This place isn't off-limits, right?"
All Annaliese wanted to do was find a spot for a bit of peace and quiet, usually the roof was just that so she was surprised to see someone else up there. She paused by the door only stepping closer when he spoke. She didn't recognise him, which only put her more on edge.
"No it isn't out of bounds. What are you doing up here though?"
Vitamin C is important. James's words rung through her head like a bell as Shenandoah stepped out into the rec yard. The ground itself had been turned into fields for crops, and was mostly occupied by the gardeners. But there were still other members of the group lounging in the Arizona sun, training, or fighting to keep the basketballs inflated. She knew that she likely looked quite the sight, with her sundress, matching hat, and sandals, but sometimes she liked to feel like the world hadn't fallen apart. She took a seat on bleachers, pulling out a pack of cigarettes and a halfway decent box of matches before lighting one. Spotting a figure making their way over, she takes a drag, already pulling another cigarette out of the pack. "If you're about to ask to bum a smoke, just know that I expect two from the next pack you get."
Annaliese was sure she'd been imagining it but she couldn't help but wonder if people had been treating her differently since her sister's death. She hated it even if it was in her mind so as Shenandoah spoke she gave a smile, relieved at the easy teasing as she sat down beside her.
"I'll keep that in mind if I ever go out scavenging again." Her role meant she normally stayed within the walls but she was honest when she said she'd keep an eye out. "You okay?"
jasper had been convinced that the high thrumming of his heart was indicative of a pulmonary aneurism; of course, he was quite the hypochondriac. any moan, grunt, thump of a body against the outside wall of the prison sent him whirling into a frenzy of panic. a cold sweat, runaway breaths, trembling fingers. the only place he could find salvation was the infirmary. with his skin clammy, spongy like clay left out for a few hours, the youngest of the finch brood all but staggered through the curtains of the medical wing, puffing his cheeks, whimpering as he crashed against the one person he had been searching for. ever the motherly figure, annaliese was sure to understand. “i—um. i—” jasper swallowed, blinking his saucepan-sized eyes, “—can i sit in here?” @survivalchances
One look at Jasper was enough to make Annaliese concerned, he was a sweet boy and she'd spent hours in the library taking comfort in the small bit of normallacy he helped to offer. "Of course. Please do. What's wrong? Talk to me,"

medical school hadn't been wasted on elspeth sun. although they had decided to go the route that meant their patients had already expired, she was surplus to requirement these days—instead, they had combed their memory for how to keep blood pumping, hearts beating. even a surface-level understanding of healthcare was a shield when it came to survival. they were a new face, and still elspeth studied the features of each unfamiliar patient, of each passerby; every figure looked like matevos from a distance. "sorry, sorry." they blinked, dragging attention back to present company, "i'm on another planet this morning. what seems to be the problem?"
Usually Annaliese was quite patient. Now she felt that wearing thin, especially with so many new people surrounding her. "I asked where my supplies were. I usually keep them in cupboard C but they appear to have been moved. Do you know anything?"
Ajita bit their bottom blood as they looked at the flickering light bulb overhead. It was working on their nerve, yet they were far too tiny to reach it, and the ladder they'd managed to find wasn't even getting them half-way there. How did these people used to do this?
Not that it mattered, they were fixating because it was easier to stand in an empty hallway than to move among the people of this place. They'd heard all the gossip by now, had questioned everything, becaues without evidence there was no way to figure it out.
And they'd gotten enough dirty looks for suggesting they would help out if they were asked. They would be a great council member, just saying.
"I need to let this be," they said, taking a deep breath. Then noticed someone moving down the hallway. "Do you happen to have like... wings or something? A jetpack would be fine too, anything to get me all the way up there." The light two stories up flickered again just for good measure.
Annaliese felt that she'd been walking a daze whenever she wasn't working. She'd been taking extra shifts when she was needed and had been on her way to the infirmary when she heard someone call out.
She moved over with a slight frown uncertain what they meant when the light flickered and she gave a small smirk instead.
"What exactly are you planning on doing once you're up there? Lightbulbs aren't easily found and we need this area lit."

I can help them here. What I couldn’t take was knowing the dead could never point the finger at the person who’d killed them. I wanted to use my skills to try to make their wounds… speak… for them.
