It's safe to say that almost everyone knows about the water being tainted, right?

Well... it's also effecting showers and I think someone said it happened to them while they were brushing their teeth?

I, uh. ...Well, you're not meant to laugh that hard in the shower. It was... pretty painful.

Anyway, I thought I might as well let everyone know.

[Bertholdt also experienced his second Echo during his shower, a frightening sensation of being very very very tall, skyscraper tall. He might tell you about it, and more, if needled enough.]

It's affected us at the firehouse too. Washing a truck isn't normally that hilarious.

[ Though if you wanted to know what a bunch of sweaty firemen look like when they're laughing and washing a truck, well, there you go. ]

You alright?

permatext;

[toobig]

[Well, if sweaty wet firemen are on the menu... no, really. Bertholdt just sighs a little.]

I'm okay, I think. I didn't hit my head, or anything.

Well, that's good. The water seems to be triggering those pulses, too...

[ Ryan looks pensive about the whole thing. He's not the smartest guy but yeah, something's up. ]

great, SHOWERS are off limits, too? fuck my life

permatext;

[toobig]

Yeah... I was surprised too. Painfully so.

I guess skin absorbs enough water, or something...

[hollowleg]

I guess I'll just be stinky FOREVER then. gross.

Is no place sacred anymore?

[toobig]

It doesn't seem like it. Someone was offering bottled water to hand out earlier, though. At least that's safe.

Re: permatext;

[immortalize]

Are you serious? I'm just paranoid even sports drinks contain whatever the water has at this point.

That does sound painful. Also explains a few things too.


[Yeah, Bruce sure does love reliving his first echo and laughing his socks off at home.]

[toobig]

I'm just glad I wasn't taking a bath, or something. Could've been worse.

I really wish this month wasn't turning out so surreal.

I don't think going to class without a shower is even acceptable. Suppose I'll have to grab some of that supply people were talking about.

( text )

[argents]

Now we do, yeah. Out of all the unbelievable things that have happened, like the werewolves, or the mines, I never thought laughing could feel so terrible too.

Nothing happened to you, right?

permatext;

[toobig]

Laughing isn't supposed to be painful...

I'm fine. I.. caught my fall in time.

[argents]

You're right. Unless you're in a tickle war or something, but even so, another person would know when to stop. (I hope.)

Yeah? I'm glad. That could have turned out bad, especially if you got a pulse too.

[ handwritten ]

[fatherssins]

Thanks for letting us know, I'm not foregoing being clean though.

permatext;

[toobig]

Boiling the water doesn't help either. You'd be safe with bottled water though, I think.

[shortspoken]

You found a way to be useful, then? Suffering shower-related accidents so that the rest of us don't have to?
Unorthodox, but as valid a way to contribute as any. I guess.

permatext; ANNIE UR SO THOUGHTFUL

[toobig]

[Well, as long as he feels useful.]

[Sarcastic;]

Anything for the cause, right?

permatext; SHE TRIES SO HARD

[shortspoken]

Well, not anything. I doubt showercorpses would be pleasant for anyone. Least of all the poor saps who'd have to discover them.

[acequeen]

Just a few days ago, I had that same experience as you with the showers. Laughing for hours shouldn't give you a stomachache!

permatext;

[toobig]

Oh... I'm sure I wasn't the first, I just... wanted to make sure everyone knew.

[acequeen]

Don't worry, I get what you mean. A little reminder can't hurt since we don't know how long this will last. Plus it helps to let the new people know in case they didn't see it.

Oh my God. How are we supposed to get clean?

permatext;

[toobig]

There was some kid talking about giving out free bottled water his parents had stocked up on.

It's not that great, but... It's something, right?
