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!]

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...?
no subject
[It wasn't like Nalawi, where they'd first met, where things relied more strongly on those members of their team with strength enough to swim through floods, fight cultish natives, and go toe to toe with goddesses. Sieglinde was all but useless in those areas, keeping to the sidelines where she wouldn't get in the way, preparing defenses and healing the wounded. (Not that she wanted to be there, on the front line- not really, even when she felt the burn of uselessness.)
But this she knew. The desperate feeling of people's lives riding on your success, the frustrating search for the breakthrough that would make everything make sense... that's familiar, perhaps the most familiar thing she's had since joining ALASTAIR, and that was... something.
At Aqua's question, however, Sieglinde raises her head, gaze flicking to the generator before moving back to the vial she was carefully checking the seal of. It wouldn't do to get samples only to let them be contaminated later...]
Yes, that is it. I had a centrifuge from the hospital brought here, but it cannot be supplied enough power to run from the house's system, but the generator also seems to be not perfectly compatible...
[Who wouldn't wire a garage to be able to power complex medical equipment???]
no subject
[ Once the vial has been properly stored, Aqua stands and moves closer to the generator for a closer inspection. Her understanding of electrical conversion is rudimentary at best (practically non-existent lbr), though with Sieglinde's explanation it's easy enough to parse that the issue boils down to a lack of raw energy. ]
I can help power a few of your tests while I'm here. If you have any battery banks, I'd be happy to recharge them as well.
[ She's trying to think of other solutions... It'll be difficult for Sieglinde to perform her work without a constant, reliable source of power. (Despite her magic she's still only human at best, far from a proper machine designed for this specific purpose.) ]
I can also try to find a generator that's appropriate for the task, if you've any in mind. And of course, I'll gladly return as many times as needed.
no subject
I would be grateful for that assistance. In both aspects. I do have batteries.
[Vial seal confirmed, Sieglinde stores it carefully alongside a rack full of others and her two microscopes, one of which is an actual microscope, while the other is the lens she'd taken from the eye of the rotting sea serpent in Nalawi, bewitched to magnify that which is viewed through it.
Sieglinde rolls a bit away from her desk and swivels to turn and watch, trying to smile slightly.]
After all- we only covered ice spells on Nalawi.
no subject
[ She smiles in return, and nods. (She'd taught Sieglinde what little she could before her own magic had fizzled out completely... Again, to think back to the past brings up such a strange sense of disconnect; another world and another lifetime.) A lot of things had happened since Nalawi, some good, some bad... And either way, she does her best not to hang on to any regrets.
—But reminiscing aside, it's back to work. The sooner she can get the equipment functional the closer they'll ostensibly be to a cure... By the time she finishes filling up whatever items can hold a charge, and runs a few rounds on the centrifuge, it's approaching midday. She'll need to continue scouring the city for what supplies she can scrape together for a meager meal—plenty of mouths to feed back at her main residence. ]
...I'll let you resume your research, then.
[ (She feels much more hopeful now; maybe it's seeing the girl on her own feet that's part of it, too.) ...And even if they've already said it before, it bears repeating: ]
...It's good to see you again, Sieglinde.
no subject
[A lot of things had happened. Perhaps... that was the best way to put it.
Sieglinde might be tired, but she still makes sure to pay close attention to what Aqua does, observing the way she channels the element of electricity for the good of her work here, in between doing what she needed to, loading the centrifuge, recording data, observing slides and making notes.
Unfortunately, not finding results, it seemed, worse celebrating. Not today.
But she still tries to smile again, to send the older woman off with that sort of face.]
Perhaps next time we have the chance, you might teach me those spells.
[A hopeful thing, "next time", when they both knew it might not even happen, here one day and gone the next, but.]
Thank you, Aqua. You as well.
[Until then.]
