Did anyone else get any really strong effects from the stuff in the Med Wing last night

Yeah, I got a strong effect from that medicine alright. It was all just some sick trap! The asshole who left all that poison there was just screwing us over!

[roseoverture]

Agh, tell me about it! What kind of effect did it have on you?

I started to

Got real sick and

Arm started to

I'd rather not talk about it... Just take my word for it that I got real messed up by that stuff... I've been feeling sick over it since...

[Strikeout also illegible]

[roseoverture]

It's okay if you'd rather not say.

If it helps, I got turned into some kind of little fire-breathing lizard thing. It really hurt, too! Bones shifting everywhere and skin change and UGH. Just not good. Mostly

Was it something on that level?

[sixth_attack]

Holy crap! You mean like a dragon or something? That's intense!

In my case... It didn't really hurt, but it was pretty awful and I ended up blacking out not long after it happened... It affected my right arm and it's been bugging me since...

[roseoverture]

If a dragon were wingless and maybe a foot long, yeah! "Intense" is the word I'd use, for sure!

It's good that yours didn't hurt that much, though I guess not having physical pain doesn't really mean much in this place, huh? Sometimes the worst of what happens here is the stuff that doesn't "hurt" at all...

[sixth_attack]

Shit! And you were conscious through all that? Were you in control of yourself after?

[A few false starts]

Yeah, it may not have been excruciating but... I looked like I was gonna die... I was pretty sure that was it for me then...

[roseoverture]

Sort of. I could feel my thoughts becoming more animal-like the more I changed, but I could still think. I still remember it all too. It was one of the weirdest feelings I've ever felt, and I've experienced some weird things before.

Well you're here now at least right? It's not gonna be "it" for you for a while yet, I'm sure of it. Just keep pushing on, and we'll make it out of here, no matter what they throw at us!

But

[scribbles]

Yeah. You're right.

You keep pushing on too, alright?

[roseoverture]

Count on it, absolutely.

Send me another message tomorrow if anything else happens.
