This plague is officially creeping me out. Thanks, guy that left the masks and immuno-boosty stuff around, I think those are the only things keeping me virus-free. Even my roomie's sick, man...

Has anyone, like, considered foul play here? Some pestilence mutant or something?

[cosimrubber]

Huh? What's a pesto-ants mutant mean?

[advisortype]

Pestilence. You know, disease, plague? One of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse?

[ffff he isn't quite thinking about... THAT Apocalypse]

[cosimrubber]

Well, I know we've got a stables... so maybe you're right. [It's best not to wonder what Luffy even thinks an Apocalypse is, though his main concern would be what it tastes like.]

Waitaminute, y'mean someone made all those people ill on purpose?!

[advisortype]

[This kid. He redefines dense. Oh god.]

Well, I'm not saying it's definitely happening, but this is really freaky how everyone's getting all sick at once here. Or, uh, maybe I've been watching too many horror movies and it's just some stupid cold...

[cosimrubber]

[Hey, he's just... open minded. To everything. Because he doesn't know what anything is.]

Hmm, it is kinda odd... but why would someone want to make everybody sick! That's really mean!

[advisortype]

Because we're like, the good guys. Okay, maybe not us, but jerks attacking the X-Men might not care if a bunch of kids get sick too.

[cosimrubber]

But the X-men are HEROES! If they get sick it'd be real bad! We should go beat up whoever's doing this right away!

[advisortype]

Uh, s-settle down, dude. There's probably no one doing anything like actually making everyone sick. But, uh, if you can find them, feel free to kick the crap out of them.

[cosimrubber]

Okay! I can do that!

... HEY, you're not sick, why don't you come help me look!

[advisortype]

[Running circles around this kid's brain should be CHILD'S PLAY. Even for Failsuke.]

Because, if I leave, I might get sick and be useless. Same goes for you, dude, maybe you should find somewhere safe to hole up.

[cosimrubber]

[It has been debated by many as to whether Luffy has a brain to run circles around at all.]

Huh? Nah, I won't get sick, 'cause I eat lots of meat!

[This is his thinking deep thoughts face.] Hmmm, maybe you ain't got sick because of those headphones; they look pretty cool, maybe the germs can't get in your ears with them.

[advisortype]

[.......And now Yousuke begins to wonder who is running around who's brain.]

So... meat keeps you healthy... and germs come in through the ears? Dude, has anyone told you you're a little weird?

[cosimrubber]

Yep. But that's okay, 'cause I don't wanna be boring.

Anyway, everybody knows meat is good for you. Don't you like meat?

[advisortype]

[Laughing] Well, you're certainly not boring, I'll give you that much.

Hell yeah, I love meat. Kinda got a hankering for kielbasa right now, even.

[cosimrubber]

Ooh, that sounds good, I dunno what it is though. Too bad that Sanji got sick, I bet he could make some...

[DRAMATIC GASP AT REVELATION OF HORROR.] HEY! What if they made him sick on purpose! What if they're tryin' to starve us?!

[advisortype]

It's a kind of sausage. German, I think? ...Ah crap, they got Sanji?! What's gonna happen to the food?

[THE KID AND HE ARE ON THE SAME PAGE. KIND OF.] W-well, I don't think that's what happened, but it really does suck that he's been hit.
