I'm sure you've all seen the news about the slime that's popping up all over. I was able to secure a sample of it this morning when I was doing my morning flyby of the reserve, and, well...

[He holds up a book. It looks like a volume of shoujo manga with the title Love Touch. It appears to be rugby-themed.]

I must say, I wasn't expecting it to turn into this.

[He flips the book open and leafs through the pages.]

It's not bad, really...not that I'm sure I want to enjoy a cup of coffee while reading a book that used to be composed of green slime.

[Yet he's still leafing through the book, and it looks as though he's about to get horribly distracted reading it.]

Yeah, it did that to me too. Well. Turned into something, I mean. I got a ring instead of a book, though.

[STARE. Okay, that's... that's certainly about the last thing she expected.]

Well, that's. Hm.

[Guess some things can still surprise you, but Torin, why are you so taken with a shoujo manga?]

This makes me wish we still had some of the more scientifically inclined people to lean on...

[and now Torin gets a face he likely hasn't seen before, staring curiously at his own screen]

Fascinating. The material just shifted into the book?

[he adjusts his glasses] Interesting choice of genre, I might add.

Ah, funny you should mention that, miss. My name is Edwin Weller. You don't know me, but I am one of those "scientifically inclined people" you speak of.

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2015-07-26 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Ok. [Phillip will pull the ring off his hand and hold it up- it's a cheap, plastic trinket.]

I'm afraid I'm not usually one for such literature.

I've actually been trying to collect "unaltered" samples in Gateway City, myself. They're not quite ready for study yet.
darkhourdear: (Pharos [idk my bff Minako?])

[personal profile] darkhourdear 2015-07-27 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
It's just there, I think.

Well, they're quite viscous, so you need to use the proper tools, really. I've been using a pair of tongs.

Tell me, what size was the object when it transformed? Was it larger or smaller than the book was?

[In Lily's case, by making a fool of herself in front of the entire school!

...

Somehow, that has ended up with her married, now.]


Probably not the worst idea. I'll do the same myself if I come across anything.
alilyinthemoonslight: (Yuri - you did what now)

[Lily looks... momentarily alarmed, but only for a moment. She hadn't seen a new Numbered in awhile...]

Ah, hello there, Mr. Weller. My name's Lily. Lily Tsukuyomi. Did you... just get your Numbers recently...?
speedpariah: (015)

[personal profile] speedpariah 2015-07-27 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I can say with certainty, I haven't had my Numbers nearly as long as you have. I have taken some time to get used to remembering another life, however.

I actually published a paper about the aliens' technology, if you want an idea about my credentials.

Have you finished reading it? I'm afraid that what you're describing is happening to a lot of Numbered but it's usually a different outcome. Any chance that you recognize the book, perhaps from an echo, or...?

Ugh, yeah, it's really gross. Is there a way to get rid of it clean?

[Arthur, in the middle of checking out his garage for the stuff, stopped as he heard a disgusting squelch--]

Fuck, it got inside my boot!

[She stares a bit blankly. Saying 'I wrote a book!' sounds rather like a 5 year old asking to be taken seriously by an adult when talking to an actual scientist.]

...I could give it a look, but I'm sure you're a ways ahead of me there if you have anything close to an understanding of that stuff.

[So she'll take his word on it?]

Regardless, any help is always appreciated, sir.

It... sort of feels like it should remind me of good things? But I don't know what.
