When: Day 58, Late Morning/Early Afternoon
Where: Level 3 common area
What:

[There are a pair of teenagers taking up space in here today. One looks like he's just some chainsmoking jerk (accurate). The other looks much more together and approachable, dressed neatly and carrying himself with a calm, if serious attitude. Both of them are trying to get your attention, but it's the chainsmoking jerk who speaks up first, loud enough for anyone nearby to hear.]

Oi, I know this isn't some proper fucking meeting, but there's some serious shit that everyone deserves to know about going on right now. Some new, fucked up jungle sickness that's starting to turn up. We need to talk to anyone who knows someone that's slipped into a coma, and anyone who's interested in how to help with people who have.

[The calmer of the two clears his throat, leveling an even look at him]

. . . And we can explain what we know about it even if you don't know a victim or want to help.

Hoh? What is it?

[hydralize]

I want to see if the animals here can be raised and bred without any poison in them. Get an initial generation blessed and feed them only purified food, and see if the young will be pure too.

[followthewind]

. . . hoooh. That ain't a bad idea. Might take a generation or two, if'n I'm rememberin' farmin' shit right, but . . .

Alright, I'm in.

[hydralize]

—Really? Great! I think we could do something similar with the plants too. That'd get results quicker than the animals.

[followthewind]

Prob'ly, yeah. Just tell me what ya need to get an' I'll get it.

[hydralize]

Do you want to work with the plants or animals more?

[followthewind]

I ain't picky. Animals? Since the plants would be pretty easy t'get.

[hydralize]

. . . Can you find bird eggs? If you can just incubate those and make sure they hatchlings are only fed purified food . . . It'd be the quickest way to complete a test with them. Just have to wait for them to grow up some.

[followthewind]

I could do the findin' part no problem. . . . the rest of it might be. I ain't exactly stayin' anywhere at the moment.

[hydralize]

. . . What do you mean you're not staying anywhere? Aren't you with Chrys?

[followthewind]

When I can handle it. Usually just sleep under the windows.

[hydralize]

Why don't you just put a window in his place?

[followthewind]

There is one. And it ain't technically his place.

[hydralize]

Whose place is it? And why isn't the window there good enough?

[followthewind]

Aella's.

[. . . ignores the rest 8D]

[hydralize]

Apartment C? It's because it's too fucking crowded, isn't it?

[followthewind]

That too.

[hydralize]

So find a less crowded place.

[followthewind]

Workin' on it.

[hydralize]

And don't sleep in the common room. What if another plague of bat monkeys or some shit like that comes through?

[followthewind]

Wasn't that bad dealin' with that, y'know.

[hydralize]

I heard they nearly shoved some people off the balcony.

[followthewind]

Can't say I had that problem.

[hydralize]

Lucky.

[followthewind]

Guess so.

Anyway, 'm lookin' for a place. But for now the windows're fine. Nice an' open there.
