Eighth Assignment

[always_on_duty]

[The transmission begins with a miserable-sounding sniffle.]

I think I'm getting a cold. [Sneeze!]

At least, I hope it's a cold, not that ahh... aahh... aaahhhh...!

[There is a pause as Gadget waits to sneeze. When he doesn't, because noses everywhere are goddamn teases, he continues.]

Atropos thing that was going around earlier. [Sniff.]I

[daddyslilpyro]

... Poor guy.

Stay out of the lab.

[always_on_duty]

Uh-huh. [Sneeze.]

Don't worry, I will. I don't even know where it is.

[daddyslilpyro]

Good call.

[always_on_duty]

What about you? [Sniff.] The weather hasn't gotten to you too, has it?

[twin_sai_kame]

I doubt it's Atropos.

[always_on_duty]

Well, that's good.

[Sneeze.]

It looked messy.

And Atropos is a silly name anyway.

[twin_sai_kame]

Probably was, considering it's what took out most of the population of this world.

Yeah, well, I didn't name it.

[always_on_duty]

[Sniff.] Like a plague?

[bokuwadoctaaa]

I-I really don't think that's it. I'd hope not.

...do you want something?

[always_on_duty]

Do you know where I can get something for this congestion? I'll even take spicy food. [Sneeze.]

[bokuwadoctaaa]

I can bring you something! I'm a doctor. ...you don't need spicy food.

[always_on_duty]

It worked pretty well at home, when I didn't have medicine.

[loyal_credo]

I think you'd have more than a runny nose, but I would keep an eye on it either way.

Rest. As after all that nonsense we all deserve some.

[always_on_duty]

You got it, Chief!

[flowwithdestiny]

It sounds like a cold to me...

[always_on_duty]

That Atropos thing [Sneeze!] ...started off like a cold. That's why I'm worried.

[flowwithdestiny]

Oh no! That doesn't sound good then...

[always_on_duty]

Do you think there's a way to tell if it's a cold or something else?
