This is Sieglinde Sullivan, the Green Witch.
I shall not waste my time or yours with much pleasantries. The situation is dire, as you know.
Several of our number have been working tirelessly to develop a vaccine to this virus, and hopefully a cure.
Tests of the vaccine are proceeding smoothly, and we have seen positive results so far- it may be available within one or two weeks time if all continues to go well and no adverse effects present themselves.
I cannot guarantee nor estimate potential cures, and it is not my intent to elevate your hopes, but know that we have several leads we are exploring. Samples of blood, particularly from those of the non-humans within our ranks who are or may be immune to the virus, are much needed at this time if you have not already been solicited.
To protect against the possibility of contamination, four of us have set up in separate locations.
Urahara Kisuke, in the hospital laboratories. Peter Parker, in the university laboratories. Sonia Nevermind, at her apartment residence, 20B of Woodhurst Court. I myself have relocated from the hospital to a residential office, at 45 Pinehurst Drive.
Samples or supplies are welcome there. The others may speak for themselves, but in my case, I will not tolerate any distractions or intrusions, so please do not abuse the knowledge of that address.
[ooc; just a note from some of the Team Science members so that characters can have a better IC idea of what's going down on that front! Stay tuned for more OOC and IC info on/near the 25th!]

I'd be glad to offer some of my blood for testing, though I'm not sure whether I qualify as either non-human or immune.
[ She might consider herself to be a normal person, and (probably) resilient to the virus, but it's never a sure or simple thing where magic is involved. ]
no subject
But the virus is raging, and-]
Aqua. It is good to hear from you.
And a sample would be welcome either way.
no subject
You as well, Sieglinde.
Of course, I'll stop by as soon as I can.
[ Another thing, which she either gleaned from the previous responses or through Lucina: ] Are you still in need of electricity as well?
[ (Here's another walking battery...) ]
no subject
[For not contacting her sooner?
For being a bit glad she was back?]
I am. Would your elemental magics be available?
no subject
[ The same could be same for herself, after all. There's enough to their numbers, if not strange happenings cropping up wherever their team goes. (Wherever they're sent.) Hardly anything to begrudge an old acquaintance and friend. ]
They are. My spells should be enough to power a generator; I've done it before.
no subject
Such assistance would be most welcome.
no subject
...Is there anything else I might bring you, other than food and drink?
[ She's not sure the best way to ask but... as far as she remembers, Sieglinde isn't able to walk. ]
no subject
[Aqua's in for a surprise! ... Well, a small surprise. Walking is now doable, but. It's the extent.]
no subject
All right, then.
When is it most convenient for you to receive visitors?
no subject
Tomorrow morning?
no subject
Tomorrow morning it is. I'll let you know when I'm on my way, perhaps around 9 o'clock?
—Are there any noticeable markers at your address, or establishments nearby?
[ For ease of navigation, though if not she can surely find a secluded corner to check her magitek. ]
no subject
That would be appreciated.
Is is two blocks south from the "post office". The home with the blue door.
no subject
Understood. I'll see you soon, Sieglinde.
[ (( shall we transition to action from here?? can keep it brief if you've got a lot of threads! ;u; )) ]
no subject
[;3; action plz I missed aqua]
no subject
As promised, there's a courtesy call before Aqua leaves and a soft rap on the door when she arrives, some 15 minutes later.
(...It's strange to be meeting someone again this way, in a completely different time and place, though she really ought to be used to it by now.) Silly as it is, she's almost holding her breath waiting for the other girl to answer. ...A lot on her mind, though she's sure her stress pales in comparison to those of the researchers tackling the cure, Sieglinde included. ]
no subject
So it's the little witch herself who answers the door, trying to look presentable. She'd wrestled her long hair into a braid, washed her face, changed her dress... but that did little to disguise the lack of sleep, or the time spent crying.
But she tries to smile, (tries).]
Aqua, it is good to see you... come in, come in-
[Unlike the last time they saw each other, she's standing on her own feet. Feet that weren't an unnatural shape or size any longer.]
no subject
Her own expression softens palpably, and she returns a quiet smile and brief nod. ]
Likewise, Sieglinde. Thank you for seeing me, I know you're very busy.
[ Of course, she's here on business, but in these circumstances being allowed to help is truly being helped in turn.
...She pauses when she glances down to step through the doorway. ]
—Your feet...?
[ (The question slips off her tongue before she realizes it might be a terribly rude thing to ask, and she hastily prepares an apology in the event she's offended her.) ]
no subject
Sieglinde takes a moment to reply, shutting the door and bolting it shut. This neighborhood was still somewhat untouched by the ravages of infected, but that was no need not to take precautions. Like shuttering windows and locking doors.
Only then does she turn about to face Aqua again, trying to make what she said sound like a good thing. (Like something she sometimes didn't regret.)]
I had them rebroken after we returned from Nalawi. I am afraid nerve damage was too extensive to allow a full recovery, but the shape now allows for careful walking with little trouble.
no subject
[ She's silent for a moment, letting the full weight of Sieglinde's words sink and settle. (A gift with a heavy price, and Aqua wonders if she bears the cost even now.) ]
You're... not in pain...?
[ A futile question to ask, as she'd be no doctor to relieve her of any persistent symptoms. But it's more a matter of sympathy, concern.
With the windows and doors bolted, it's oddly quiet in the house, and it almost feels a bit dark despite the yellow lights illuminating the rooms. ]
KH should have prepared you for no hearts
[To try and demonstrate that she was fine, (really, truly), Sieglinde rocked back ever so carefully on her heels to wriggle her toes. For her it was something of a disjointed sensation, half-numb and slowed, but it was still there. Still... something.]
They were bound for so long that the feeling in the limbs is mostly gone... so by consequence, I still must be careful with my steps. But it does not pain me.
[Much like a person who attempted to walk after their limbs had "fallen asleep" her motions were a clumsy thing, and she often had to look down in order to keep a proper eye on how she was stepping and where she was putting her feet, lacking the sensitive ability to adjust a footfall before it fully landed to compensate for uneven terrain or slippery textures, but.
She could at least do some things by herself now. Even if she still needed to be carried when it came to moving quickly.]
ASDJFLKDSJ it's true, alas...
[ Something gained and something long since taken... At the very least, Aqua's glad to hear it doesn't hurt her to walk. Though...
There's another pensive silence that settles over the room, as she mulls for the next thread of conversation to follow. It's much too late to be offering wishes for a recovery, now that what's done is done. The permanent damage is beyond her healing abilities, and the most she can do is to remember, and to watch out for her teammate when she can.
...She'll focus on what she can do to help Sieglinde at present. ]
...You mentioned the generator needed a charge? And the blood sample, of course.
no subject
(Never mind that she'd been but a child, that she couldn't have known anything but what she'd been told.)
Better to focus on the present.]
Yes, of course- follow me.
[She demonstrates what she is capable then, a slow, measured walk from the hallway to... the garage? Which she has converted into a makeshift lab since there's no car to get in the way, notes and data and various equipment "borrowed" from other places scattered about. Including a generator in the corner primarily being used for a centrifuge.]
Shall we begin with the blood first? It is the most straightforward...
no subject
...Of course.
[ It's the most straightforward, and also the first reason they're meeting, after all. Aqua allows herself to be directed to a vacant seat (whether it's an actual chair or makeshift, she isn't fussy), and promptly pulls up one of her sleeves as soon as she's situated. ]
...How many samples have you collected so far, if you don't mind me asking?
no subject
It's a real chair for Aqua, at least, stolen from the dining room table, whereas hers was a rolling chair from the study.]
Personally? Seven.
[She moves easily to gathering her equipment, prepping a vial and needle before she gave a quick explanation, tying a tourniquet on Aqua's arm to promote the color in the veins and make it easier to siphon off blood.]
I am still less mobile than the other members of the team involved in this project- Princess Sonia has gathered the most, I believe.
no subject
[ Seven... If she has any doubts as to whether it'll collectively be enough, she doesn't voice them. (She trusts her teammates, and she trusts Sieglinde. It's a lot of hope concentrated into a mere handful of individuals, but that doesn't deter her...) ]
Thank you for your efforts. Sonia and the others as well.
[ ...There's the cool touch of disinfectant followed by a brief, sharp prick of the needle. The blood draw doesn't take any time at all, and soon Sieglinde is skillfully smoothing a scrap of clean gauze and a fresh bandage over the puncture.
All the while, Aqua quietly studies the lab, taking note of the generator and the cables crossing the ground from it. ]
Is that the power source...?
