What do we know about the Hunters?




[That’s it. That's the post.]

[Sorry, folks. We're used to getting our info from Sleepers, not the locals. And in the wake of October, in light of the words of the locals lately... Better to ask.]

[droptheious]

Oh. That's...concerning. Do you think it's like October used to be? When people would be really far gone? But then it has to wear off eventually right?

We do, I guess. But I also know you enough to be really suspicious. If you're looking at doing it please try to be safe?

[shiro2hero]

I don't know. It might be something we need to research. You're not busy, are you? :)

[He's kidding. He's totally kidding.]

I'm just listening to information now.

[What is "safe"? We just don't care know.]

[droptheious]

I'm never too busy to do research.

[Don't joke about RESEARCH, Father. Also, Varian tragically does not send an emoji back. They're the worst, ugh.]

That's good. The listening. Just let one of us know if it becomes MORE than listening.

[shiro2hero]

Well, if you feel like a big task...
So far, it doesn't sound like anyone's really tried finding an antidote or cure.
You worked on replicating antidotes in Deerington, right? Maybe it's a similar principle.

[Why do u hate emojis, son.]

[But talking about cures, antidotes, etc is a good topic to move onto.]

[droptheious]

Of course, I can always deal with bigger projects. I can definitely try and find an antidote for here, too. It might need a bit more fine tuning, as the different bloodtypes might have an effect on things- but I can sure look into it.

[It'll be something he can focus on but don't think he's forgotten this, Shiro. He'll be checking up on this. ]

[shiro2hero]

Ah, right. I forgot about that part.

You could try seeing if anyone would want to volunteer a blood sample?

[droptheious]

I have one of almost every blood type in my house aside from warmblood. So I can get a sample from everyone.

[Except for. You know. The type you are, Shiro.

:)]

[shiro2hero]

That's

The kind with no abilities.



Right?

[droptheious]

That would be it, yeah. Pretty much just...regular blood.

[He wishes HE had regular blood :(]

[shiro2hero]

How much do you need?

[droptheious]

Oh, only about a test tube of it. Not a lot. Charlie tried to have me a bucket of HIS blood- definitely not that much. Is that yours?

[He doesn't think Shiro would steal other people's blood, but just in case... ]

[shiro2hero]

Yeah, that's what I have. I think.

At least, if I have some weird powers, I haven't figured out how to use them.

[droptheious]

Oh wow, well cool. If you could spare some I'd love to have a look. Eddie's better at studying blood than I am, but I'm curious. Besides, I'm trying to learn how to imbue blood into objects because that's a thing here. I need to practise.

[shiro2hero]

I'll

See if I can get Eddie to help with that. I don't mind donating, it's

well
medical experts seem to be in short supply.

[droptheious]

I've noticed that, that's...worrying. I don't really have any skills there. I'm more a chemist than a legitimate healer- I can make you all kinds of medicines, but don't ask me to set a broken arm. It might be something we need to get people trained up. It's not smart to rely on only a limited amount of people for something. Especially fi things get bad or they leave.

[shiro2hero]

It is, yeah. I don't either. I know basic first aid, but beyond that?

I wonder if any new faces are medics. Nurses, doctors. EMTs, even.

[droptheious]

I really hope so. It might be worth checking? Like a general "hey hands up if you know how to save someone's life" kinda thing.

[shiro2hero]

Hah

Raise your hand if you can do more than basic first aid?

[droptheious]

Exactly! See how many takers we get.

[shiro2hero]

Good plan.

Let me know when you get that going.

[Your new job, son.]

[droptheious]

Sure will!

[He is absolutely not going to do this, this is a bare-faced lie.]
