[Fiona is a little out of breath, like she just hustled very quickly away from somewhere. Which she did, but that's neither here nor there. The background behind her is some innocuous wood panelling; she's in a house.]

Okay. So. Crunch time. Things are getting nuts out there, if you didn't notice. We are gonna wind up super screwed if we don't hop to figuring out what the hell to do.

[She holds up a vial. It has some alien writing on it, as well as a familiar symbol on the label.]

We found this inside the hospital. A shit-ton of them, actually. So who wants to find out what Zymandis asshole is responsible for this mess and beat an antidote out of them?



[ ooc. PS, maya, hanzo, and mccree might show up in your threads. feel free to threadjack as well! ]

[oh my god???] Are you getting off to this? [WHY ELSE WOULD HE BE ASKING]

[12inches]

What— No! [ FOR ONCE ] You know what I mean! Like, actual contact and not getting sick's a pretty big step up from just sharing a space and not getting sick.

[cachemoney]

[Alright... but she's keeping an eye on you.......]

...actual contact.

[12inches]

... Nice.

[ psych. ]

—But seriously, you run into anyone else with the same deal yet, or..?

[cachemoney]

[OH my god, she should have known better. She scowls a little, but continues.]

No. I don't... actually know of anyone else who is sick. Besides the person I'm spending time with. And I guess your... person.

[She's carefully not using names because she doesn't exactly trust her teammates not to grab everyone who's sick and throw them in a cell. Some of these people are pretty goddamn medieval in their methods.]

[12inches]

[ Look, if someone he's mackin' on is one of the sick now he's not gonna go on a hunting spree. But fair, public network. Crazies be crazy. Besides, the nonspecificity means he can go on quietly, idly assuming her person's another chick No ]

Yeah, I know of one other person, but... I only know 'cause their veins are all popping out. How're we supposed to tell if they're in our boat..? Whatever this boat is besides the USS Freakishly Lucky. It could be just us, it could be the rest of us. The rest of us that aren't... you know.

[cachemoney]

[To be fair, Rhys is basically a chick, so. Keep the dream alive, Sigma.]

Right. [She rolls her eyes up in thought.] Short of spitting in each other's faces and then waiting for three weeks... maybe they can test it medically. Somehow.

[Without putting the sick in danger of a mandatory quarantine.]

[ A valid point................... Rhys Witherspoon..... ]

On all eighty of us?

[ Hopefully the deflation of his tone as that actually hits him means he doesn't have to express how impractical that'd be. It was stupid to bring up, things are way too hectic right now for the organization it'd take to figure it all out. ]

There's some real crazy geniuses here, I know we'll think of something... [ He scrubs a hand over his face. ] But I guess for now we know about us. D'you wanna at least keep in touch if anything changes? With you or...

[ Y'know. Your person. Little less to be left to the imagination with that one, but the solidarity might be nice? ]

[cachemoney]

[Impractical is right. It'd be more efficient to just give them all a dose of the vaccine and the cure to be safe, but... progress on that seems to be slow.

Her initial reaction is to brush off the offer and handle this by herself, like she always does, but. It would be nice to have someone in the same boat to commiserate with.]

Yeah. I think I do. [She takes a second to scroll the directory, finding the name that matches the username.] So... Sigma? Hi, Sigma.

oh god sorry

[12inches]

[ Wow! Thanks for finding it in your cold loner heart to indulge his clingwrap-like camaraderie. If all it has to stick to is itself it turns into a trainwreck. ]

Hey. You coulda just asked, y'know. [ He smiles nonetheless. ] But if we're gonna play it that way, I'm gonna take a wild stab in the dark and guess you're Fiona... Correct me if I'm wrong though, I did get called Mr. Cat once, so I pawbably shouldn't assume like that. Maybe you're a... big Shrek fan or something.

[ Do you regret agreeing to attempt correspondence with this yet. ]

UNFORGIVABLE jk ur fine lmao

[cachemoney]

[Pawbably... she makes a terrible face at this terrible pun, though the whole Shrek thing goes way over her head. 29th century media is pretty far removed from Mike Meyers voice acting.

She shoots a fingergun at him, clicking her tongue.] Got it in one. Fiona here. No, uh... Shreks involved.

[12inches]

[ he can't help it okay don't make that face. ]

Well good, she was the best part of that movie anyway.

[ Apart from puss in boots but I mean that goes without saying. He'll meet her finger gun with some thumbs ups. ]

Anyway. Uh... It'da been nicer to meet you If we weren't meeting like this, but... Y'know, what can you do?
