This certainly is a hostile world.

[Not that he sounds put out by it... exactly. Perhaps unsurprised. His own world is hostile enough, after all. When are people not destroying one another in the pursuit of some or another useless and selfish end?]Any who are aware of the origins of that illness, I would be interested in discussing it with you ( Read more... )

[She'll read it all, but she has one question that needs to be answered.]

Are the invading cells likely to reawaken and cause a relapse of the disease?

...

What would you want to know?

[video | private] willezurmacht October 12 2010, 21:35:51 UTC

It seems unlikely. They're dying off as we speak. Quite fascinating, really - I've never seen anything of the sort.

[How to broach this without seeming rude? He frowns.]

This... arm you sent to me. Is it similar to yours?

I don't intend to be intrusive, but it would be difficult to miss the similarity in coloring between it and you, or those women who seem similar to you. Claymores, I believe they're called?

Is this a coincidence?

[video | private] twoswordjuniper October 13 2010, 05:06:32 UTC

Hm. Interesting.

Claymore is something we are often called.

[a little wary.] Is there a reason you want to know?

[video | private] willezurmacht October 13 2010, 07:35:26 UTC

Extremely interesting.

[Not that he's saying more on that.]

Call it intellectual curiosity. Whatever person or being this arm was originally attached to seems quite inhuman themselves. Or, more to the point, she appears to be some form of modified human. A unique mutation, if that's what it is.

[Mildly curious look]

A hostile world?

[video] willezurmacht October 13 2010, 07:36:01 UTC

Battles and rage, violence every day.

I suppose that makes it a normal world, if that's how you care to look at it.

[video] roboterpolizist October 13 2010, 19:06:07 UTC

[a pause, a small tilt of the head]

I would say that makes certain inhabitants hostile, not the world.

[video] willezurmacht October 13 2010, 21:20:21 UTC

[Magnus tilts his own head as well.]

Hm. That's an interesting distinction. I suppose it can't very well be argued against.

[He clicks on the Forge and sits in silence for a long time. You asked a question like a doctor, a scientist, and it makes him terribly nervous. He might even be afraid, but SOLDIER doesn't feel fear, darnit.]

It came from my home world.

[ Voice ] willezurmacht October 13 2010, 07:36:47 UTC

[Score.]

Did it, now? Do you have knowledge of its origins, young man?

[ Voice ] i_love_squats October 14 2010, 02:17:55 UTC

[Young man. He's getting the heebie jeebies now.]

It was after my time. You might want to talk to Elena; she was around for it.

[ Voice ] willezurmacht October 15 2010, 00:54:39 UTC

Ah, I see. My thanks, then.

Have you a name?

[voice] princely_calyx October 13 2010, 08:32:14 UTC

It's not usually this bad...just, someone [Yazoo] helped it along.

[A sigh. Things had just been settling down too.]

You're best off talking to Elena and those from her world about it. It came from there. I could only tell you what it did to me.

[voice] willezurmacht October 13 2010, 10:00:24 UTC

It rarely takes more than a spark to set hostility ablaze, I fear. All the moreso when the seeds of it have already been sown.

As for your ability to tell me what it did to you... please do. If you would be so inclined.

[voice] princely_calyx October 13 2010, 10:23:52 UTC

That's true. [She's a little sad in admitting that.]

Well, it first showed up as gray splotches on my shoulders. I thought it had been from the blood from the octo-siren thing that we fought. But then they turned black and sometimes oozed. [She a little loath to admit that.] And it spread down my arms.

It didn't get really bad until I went to the clinic to have it healed. When I got back they were worse and grown in size and in the morning I started coughing a lot. And I got tired really easy. I kinda felt like I was in a fog all the time. I could barely hold my sword. Eventually I just didn't really want to get out of bed unless I had to.

Um...that's about it. Hope that helps. [She sounds dubious.]

[voice] willezurmacht October 13 2010, 11:22:50 UTC

It reacted negatively to attempts at healing?

Hm.

[A scientist? Turks are so automatically suspicious of this.] I'm from the world where the illness seems to have originated. I...was never effected. It hasn't happened yet from what I remember, so I doubt I can provide much information as to what it actually entails. [Except he knows about where it comes from, or so he thinks.]

willezurmacht October 13 2010, 23:22:11 UTC

Ah, another of those from the world of this questionable silver-haired... gentleman, then?

Are there many of you?

fingersloophole October 13 2010, 23:39:53 UTC

Several. Though I've been on the opposite side of both the silver-haired men from my world.

You said you know the source of the disease?

willezurmacht October 13 2010, 23:42:23 UTC

Every world has its sides. I suppose it's inevitable that everyone takes one or another.

You could call it a parasitic virus, entirely alien in nature.
