[Diego is sitting calmly in the corner table near the window at Common Grounds, a classy little coffee house not far from the government offices where he works. There are seven empty cups of coffee on the table and one more full one in his hand ( Read more... )

Of a wha- [And here is your alarmed doctor, sitting bolt upright at his desk.]

Then stop drinking it and for heaven's sake, Diego Armando, get out of there!

[Still not alarmed, he frowns and looks back at his NV.]

I still have half a cup left.

Don't be ridiculous, if there's some kind of riot going on around you-

I won't have you in here for unnecessary injury which could have been easily prevented by safely relocating, Diego Armando!

(And if you're going to even try and tell me you don't have a to-go tucked up a sleeve-)

...What's going on over there?

It's two men. Both started to panic, then one swung at the other and-

[Another smashing sound from across the room.]

Ah. Now a young lady has decided to partake as well. [Siiip.]

I'd just as soon take my chances over here in the corner than try to run across the room to the door through the brawl.

You don't seem to be out of the line of fire.

...If you think it's been laced, why are you still drinking the coffee? It could interfere chemically with your meds.

That was just a stray shot.

If it was going to hurt me, it already would have. [Siiiip.] It doesn't effect me.

Be careful.

The police are on the way. I plan to give a report when they get here.

What kind of drug do you think it is?

Well, if you'd leave the coffee, I could run a chem analysis!

I'm leaving enough for that. [You don't get it, Dae, the waitress is freaking out, this is going to be his last cup until all this settles down.]

You really do just enjoy being difficult, don't you?

I just don't see how panicking is going to help this situation at all.

[The clatter of a table being knocked over and all its dishes falling to the ground.]

Ooh. Just missed the planter in the corner. That was close.

Isn't there at the least a restroom in the back? Stay there.

The police will be here any minute. I don't think I can make it past the scuffle without them dragging me into it.

[He brushes his hair back from the visor, then looks back at the NV.]

Ever seen something like this? It came on pretty quickly.

No, I've seen scuffles in the emergency room before, but...

Not since the riots have I seen people behaving so far out of control.

Some kind of hallucinogen, if I had to guess. They started talking nonsense before they both flew off the handle.

[He scoots over to the far end of the booth bench, close to the wall as he can get.]

The question is where it came from, and why it's in the coffee.
