[Daine received a dose of the Other Vaccine. She is sitting on the floor with the telephone in her hands, trying to decide if this pain is from that shot or something more normal.]

Hello? Am I holding this telephone, or whatever you call it, the right way this time?

Happened to me, too...

[silvestris_mage]

Are you all right?

This healing is probably the worst I've ever had. And Ma wasn't exactly skilled when it came to fixing bones.

I feel like I'm gonna die.

[silvestris_mage]

Don't die! That seems like it would be a bad way to go, because of this Asian Flu.

[semblance]

It would seem you have been given the shoddy version of the vaccine...

It will make you sick initially, but you will be well again eventually.

[silvestris_mage]

There's a shoddy version? I thought healers were better at weeding out the bad.

That's a relief. I'd put it down to an early version of something else, but much much worse.

[eldest_hatter]

Do people always barge in so rudely like that? They came here only just a moment ago.

[silvestris_mage]

I don't know; these are supposed to be our homes, and yet they just came barreling in like wild men.

Are you feeling fine then?

[eldest_hatter]

I can say for certain that this place is not my home, but at the very least they could show us some courtesy and knock.

So far yes. I do hope I don't catch whatever illness this is. How bad are you feeling from the shot?

[silvestris_mage]

It's not my true one, either, but I suppose it's the best we can do. I'd much prefer to live outside, though.

It's not-- too bad, not the worst I've felt. I'll live. How are you doing?

[bustydefense]

Some of the vaccines have side-effects. You'll probably feel ill for a little while.

[silvestris_mage]

Thank you for letting me know-- you'd think they'd do a better job of creating these things, though.

Are you feeling well?

[bustydefense]

I'm feeling quite well, thank you. Are you and Numair going to be all right?

[silvestris_mage]

I think so. I've been told all this pain passes, and he doesn't look like he's going through anything completely dangerous.

[nexuses]

They're supposed to prevent illnesses. But unfortunately for those people, the town had different takes on what a shot is.

[silvestris_mage]

Apparently.

Why can't they fix these things? Seems strange to pull you into a town only to kill you off.

[nexuses]

They may be doing it on purpose. A way of entertainment, in a way, by chance.
