[Video | UN: METTATON]

Well, Audentes. Things have certainly taken a turn towards Sweeps Week, haven't they?

[Who's this stunningly handsome, yet unfortunately badly lit human...? Obviously, it's Mettaton, darlings, learn how to read. But wherever could he be with such hideous lighting?]

Riots, infected, and secrets, oh my... While we're out here doing our best to keep both the townspeople and ourselves safe, I thought it'd be a good time to share with the class what we might have found. And without having to play me for it!! Lucky you. [Wink.

The "camera" gets turned away from Mettaton (a crime, he knows), now clearly showing the inside of Woodhurst Watch HQ. Specifically, inside the head editor's room. He expertly pans it from the mess on the floor that the infected and townsfolk left in their rush to head out towards the top of the desk he's sitting at. On the desk, next to where he's perched his legs (you're welcome), are some scattered sheets of paper. He's focusing his communications jewelry on one in particular.]


"Local cancer patient attacks doctor during regularly scheduled chemotherapy appointment." How dramatic. But certainly interesting, isn't it? [He's audibly tapping his fingers on the desk, just out of frame.] Can't say I know entirely what to make of it, but I'm sure checking any records in the hospital would be a good start.

Also. [He turns his necklace back to himself.] Since I and, I'm only assuming, the rest of those inorganic among us aren't particularly interesting to those infected, we might prove ourselves useful when it comes to... Well. Anything. Can't be infected, won't even attract attention... [He puts a hand to his chest and sighs.] I never thought I'd find an audience I couldn't captivate. But! Here we are and the show must go on.

[Slightly more serious. It's obvious there are specific, less fortunate people on his mind.] If there's anyone out there that needs help, let me know. I'm no superhero, but...

...Why waste a talent when you have it?

I wasn't much better, myself. [having written off the Qorral as the cause of the problem to begin with, and not the victims.] But you're right about that. And we're doing well so far.

[let's just hope it continues that way.]

A real credit to your noble profession.

[pffffft]

What's looking the sketchiest to you so far, though? So, theoretically, I and whoever else would know what to go for.

Whatever.

[He's only gonna stop calling you creepy when you stop being creepy, which is never.]

Anyway. Are you two the only ALASTAIR homies we got over there?

Yeah little man, it's totes cray cray. #shitshow, amirite? lmao

[Now, back to business.]

So, there was a number you dialed. Was it for the office, or was it a personal one?

Because if that call went to his house... We could hunt his address down and see if anyone else is home, or if he's just been gone for a while.

Olivia-san is working as my lab assistant and Sieglinde-san is posing as a patient. They don't have much clout, obviously, but they might be able to do some snooping

oh SHIET waddduuuuuup

[He's just excited because he happens to know them both. Vaguely.]

ya no and they're both like... the definition of adorable so lol

They might have better luck than us if they weasel around the place.

Someone in the virology department seemed to have cut off all contact with the Woodhurst Watch, but I haven't heard anything about a missing staff member, and that would be right under my nose. I'd start there.

[why are you like this]

Sieglinde-san might have a bit more trouble, but no one would suspect a young girl of foul play, so there's that. And Olivia-san isn't capable of looking suspicious.

[unlike SOME PEOPLE... actually no, despite his personality, he's the least suspicious because he seems to be really dedicated to the work. it just doesn't leave much room for snooping.]

respired: and it isn't for play (but it's not just for work)

[ He's surprised to hear that, but it doesn't come through in his expression or tone. He simply responds, matter-of-fact. ]

Tell me what I need to do.

You got it.

[He frowns, though, gears turning in his mind.]

...You watch yourself too out there, okay?

[Urahara's powerful. Jin knows this well (oh boy he knows it well, after getting his ass kicked), enough to not worry too much, but--] I'm sure you've figured this out already, but we're getting into really heavy territory here. It's just gonna get worse and worse from here on out.

[Nobody's invincible, after all. Not even Kisuke Urahara.]

Okay, plus-one to the idea that somebody is living in the sewers. I found a sleeping bag down there. [Which... somebody didn't let her keep for herself, but whatever, she's not getting into that here.

She holds up a book that is more or less baby's first human biology textbook. The title is probably "How Your Body Works" or something.]
This was inside, too, which is... weird. Not exactly bedtime reading.

Okay, very funny. I know. Nobody is going to want to work on an article at this point. Still. They could have done us a favor and left more useful stuff around their offices!

I don't know if 'lmao' is what I'd use, but yeah. totes cray cray.

[ You know, to put it one way. ]

Just the hospital. I don't have a first name on the guy. I figure there can't be too many Chapmans working there, but who knows how many exist in the city.

Can you? That's great! Will that be easy for you to do?

No. I know he was visiting patients in ICU when they met, so I'd guess she was probably a patient, but it doesn't say specifically either way.

I'll see if any of the names you listed turn up at the firm.

[Honestly, each surname he sees on that list, he's seen in his own life. There's a chance that doing this could do more harm than good, but-]

There's been an uptick in lawsuits that have been filed against the hospital. People are suing for negligence, malpractice, the whole shebang.

If I find something on a Chapman, I'll hit you up.

Do we know if the hospital is the only healthcare facility in the air? Like, do we have private practice type situations around here, or is this just it? It is as far as I know. Some OG docs like to start their own gig, so maybe this Chapman dude has/had one of his own?

It's not typical for a hospital to have that many lawsuits, is it?

[ He's young and doesn't know much about the law, okay... ]

I also hadn't considered that, but he was a doctor involved with trying to discover a cure for this when it began. Would someone running a private facility be involved with that? Especially since it's looking more and more likely the hospital we're all looking at has something fishy going on.

The one I found seemed to have been abandoned at least for several days. The carrion had long been dried, peeled away, and abandoned.

That may make several down in the sewers, rather than just one.

She could have had prior knowledge, but it seems like we won't be able to track her down.
