Should we be feeling sick?

[Cautious] It seems a lot of people are.

[He adopts a thoughtful expression.]

Hmm...now that I think about it, my weapon wasn't looking too healthy when I saw him..

No?

Perhaps the clinic is open.

[The video flips on to show Badou standing what appears to be one of the corridors of the communal. It's hard to tell because the air around him is thick with smoke. He raises a hand to be counted.]

Yo.

If by "not feeling sick" you mean not feeling sick in the head.

[Small relief in his voice. He looks sane so far.]

I was trying to be discreet, but, ah, yeah.

What's all that smoke?

Don't waste your time, man. The ones who've already cracked won't catch the subtleties anyway.

Smoke's just my way of-- [But the smoke around him has started to thin. Badou notices.]

Sorry, hang on.

[And suddenly he throws himself on the floor, the communicator dropping from his hand to land beside him as he does. He lands in his weapon form: a bright purple air cannon, and the moment it impacts the tile, a volley of very loud exuberant fireworks explodes from it along with a big attendant puff of smoke. A moment later, he transforms back, picks up the communicator, and continues talking as though nothing has happened.]

Smoke keeps people calm. I guess it takes their mind off the Madness or helps them to remember themselves or something. But it's smoke, so they've gotta breathe it. I gotta breathe it too or I'd be as nutty as the rest of these fruitcakes.

What about you? You seem to have managed to keep your wits.

[He'd be blinking if you could see him.]

That's ...very convenient. [He's impressed.]

[Pause.]

It's ah, well. What better time to learn your meister ability, right?

[apologies in advance, Canada.]

What sort of epidemic is this?

Madness. An epidemic of the soul.

The mind. Nothing should be able to strike there so quickly.

I'm fairing better than most, it seems.

China--how are you?

I wonder how that can be. Can you feel them, aru?

Better and worse. Not sick.

Are you feeling them too, Kanada?

How are you doing?

[Voice] maplezen August 15 2010, 23:46:56 UTC
I am. I think we might all be.

Not so bad. You?

As bad as it may seem, really...it's good to have something familiar during times like this.

I am well, really...there have been worse times. It's nice to know my citizen's strength is still holding up even in this!
