Audio Diary 4: Sick to My Stomach

[raptureblues]

So how is that shed o' yours coming, Delta?

And Mister Castiel...Sorry to hear about your accident. It's...so strange here, the way people keep coming back like they'd never- Without VitaChambers, even!

Since the bathhouse has got the cleanest water, I'm gonna get a laundry tub started over there. Fair time that things are kept fresh and decent. Doin

Gimme a fair wave hello and I might help you out some.

Eleanor... Just tell me if things start turnin` for the worst, at least.

[raptureblues]

You, rollin' up your white collar sleeves? What a change of pace.

...Why should I tell you a damn thing?

[businessfella]

I already gotta watch over the place. Ain`t too far a walk to help wash some clothes.

Why? `Cause I know more `bout whatever problems her and Johnny might be goin` through than you probably think.

[raptureblues]

So you can make a mock-fool me? You got some gall. I can mind my own, and you can mind yours.

And how to turn it to your own advantage, no doubt.

[businessfella]

Ya know, Gracie, Johnny told me you were a fine and good woman but I`m startin` to question it.

Refusin` help, despite where we are. Stubborn women never got far like that.

[raptureblues]

I don't suspect many of us survived Rapture keepin' so good and fine. You think what you want, and stay out of my way.

[businessfella]

Good enough. An` I will think what I want, an` I think you`re not a tough and kind as you think you are. That is the true shame. Even the big fella`s tryin` to be kind.

[raptureblues]

There are some things goin' on, Mister Sinclair, that don't exactly draw out my kind side!

[businessfella]

An` you get all flustered. Sure if you took a breath and thought `bout it, things would be easier. Naw, `stead you get mad at me `bout wantin` to help.

Good luck, Miss Holloway. [Camera clicks off]

[happenagain]

Aunt Gracie, that's enough.

[thinkin_man]

Eleanor. I need to talk with you, too.

Do you swear to me that producing ADAM isn't hurting you in any way? I don't want you to hurt for my sake.

I'm not using you, not like a "gas pump", not like anything. All I want is for you to be happy.

[voice//locked]

[happenagain]

Of course it doesn't hurt. It may feel odd, and a little uncomfortable at first, but I'm just fine. Really! I would tell you, Father, if it was hurting me.

[text//locked]

[thinkin_man]

I'm not guilting you into this, either. The odd feeling..it isn't bad, is it?

And Grace isn't taking this whole thing well. Not well at all.

[text//locked]

[happenagain]

Of course you're not. No, not really. Just odd.

I know. I know she's not. Please, don't mind her for now. I'll talk to her.

[text//locked]

[thinkin_man]

I tried talking to her, myself. She'll listen to you.

Odd.. Is it a lot of trouble? Please, be honest with me.

If you want me to stop taking ADAM from you, just say the word. I'll fight off the effects until I fix things.

No matter what, you won't have to deal with this for much longer. I found a way out.

[text//locked]

[happenagain]

Things will get better, I promise. Right now, we're playing catch-up to your condition, but when there's enough, things will settle.

No, no of course not. I would tell you, Father, or you would feel it yourself.

You have? How?
