[With all the information coming out, it's apparent to Keith and Lance that one big elephant in the room has been ignored: the infection among the recruits themselves. Keith is tired and on edge, as he needs nothing to do with the infection to be cranky. Lance is jittery, too. But they have to talk about that elephant before it gets too late.

And for some of them, it might be. That's what Keith is really afraid of right now.]


Hey. It's Keith.

and ya boy, lance! [Because things are already pretty doom and gloom as it stands, and maybe things could use a little lightening up? Or something...

It’s a little more difficult to differentiate between people in a group message like this, but it’s a better idea to get something down on text in case they need to refer to it later, and anyone who knows either of the boys can probably tell them apart pretty easily through diction alone.]


we know your mind-phones have been pretty busy lately, but theres something keith and i wanted to talk to you guys about.

Before we get a move on in attacking Zymandis' agent, we need to look at our own numbers. A lot of us are sick. Maybe less than I thought. Or maybe more. Either way, we have to know who's sick and make a plan to help our own. And I'm serious about HELPING. Not putting someone out of their misery or any of the other stupid stuff I've heard from some of this team. We need to stop this disease. We need to help our own. Once everyone's BETTER, we'll make a plan for what to do next as a team.

[It's harsher than necessary but likely less harsh than how it might be normally, given Keith's frequently frustrated tone of voice. Text mitigates some of it, even if his frustration definitely does become CAPITAL LETTERS.

Lance, meanwhile, is quite eager to gloss over that sharp reprimand because seriously guys — kumbaya.]


yeeeeeah, so — helping! getting a head count is definitely ideal. we cant afford to be silent on this and we definitely CANT be alone right now, cuz every one of us affected and on our own can be a huge risk to everyone here. so we were thinking… since the city shut it down, we can use the middle school. those of us infected can stay there while we wait for our people to find that cure. like a quarantine safe house.. i know its not ideal, but its something. especially for those who dont have any other contingency plans.

[A pause. Well. May as well get the ball rolling, right?]

ill be there.

( ooc; p.s. there is an information plotting post for the quarantine space! )

We should make sure the middle school can hold everyone. Even enhanced people.

fintastic: (hmmm~)

[personal profile] fintastic 2017-03-06 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Do I need to come look after you too? 38)
Because I will!

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-06 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Are you infected, Feferi?
fintastic: (awkwarrrrrd)

[personal profile] fintastic 2017-03-06 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Not as far as I know! Are you?
racking: (92.)

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-06 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Yes.
You don't think it's too dangerous for you to be around me? Especially when I'm like this?
fintastic: (calmly culling)

[personal profile] fintastic 2017-03-06 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. Maybe?

But if someone has to stop you, I would like it to be me!
racking: (14.)

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-06 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Can you stop me? How would you do it without me either hurting you or infecting you?
fintastic: (sneaky fish)

[personal profile] fintastic 2017-03-06 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
I still have a couple fraymotifs up my sleeve!
Not literally but I'm tougher than I look.

The trident is not just for show, either.
racking: (29.)

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-06 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't want you to put yourself at risk. Not unless it was absolutely necessary.

[ that being said-- ]

You wouldn't hesitate before coming at me with that trident?

Don't worry, Shiro. We're working on it.

If Pidge was here, I have a feeling that she might be able to shut down your arm. Temporarily.
racking: (30.)

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-06 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I can ask Rhys. Or McCree. Maybe they'll have some temporary fixes we can try. But we might have to look into something more permanent if it comes down to that.
secondnature: (that's a BAD IDEA)

[personal profile] secondnature 2017-03-06 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not cutting off your arm, Shiro.

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-06 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Well you wouldn't be, technically.

[ casually splitting hairs ]
secondnature: (did you steal my rage)

[personal profile] secondnature 2017-03-06 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you think of your arm as not your arm?
racking: (26.)

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-06 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[ way to ask a very complicated question, keith. ]

It's not about that. It's about being sure I can't hurt anyone.
secondnature: (i'm a little ashamed)

[personal profile] secondnature 2017-03-06 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I want to make sure you can help yourself when this is all over.

That's all.

Though I guess I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to have Galra tech attached to you forever.
racking: (32.)

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-09 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Taking it off doesn't change anything that happened to me.

I still have options. Rhys made some suggestions, and the barriers Lance is talking about could keep me from using my arm on anyone.

Do they block off rooms, or can she draw them around different people?
racking: (71.)

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-09 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
That makes sense. Maybe in the doorframes?
It's worth a shot. I'm not the only one who needs to be locked down, I'd assume.
racking: (32.)

[personal profile] racking 2017-03-12 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
At least the school should have enough rooms to isolate people. But hopefully we'll be out of there before it comes to that point.

This was a good call, you know. You and Keith were both right to initiate this.
