[Mort has not had a very pleasant time of things with the water being like it is. He's a psychiatrist. He is not supposed to be showing outward signs of being obviously off his rocker. Uncontrollable laughter does not help.
But what's almost worse for him beyond the laughter and the traumatic memory flashbacks is that the water seems to be drawing previous items he's regained back to him like a magnet. This goes for the creepy doll he got back for his very first item and promptly locked in a desk drawer. It's been appearing anywhere and everywhere he's come into contact with the water, much to his creeped out dismay. What's worse, now it seems to be coming with accessories, a bed and a set of devil hoodie pajamas. He's locked everything away in a drawer...so he thinks. He's making this transmission after accidentally drinking some infected tea, and the doll, dressed in the little suit he first found it in, is sitting on a shelf behind him. He has no idea it's there, and he looks a little worn out as he opens the video feed using the little grasshopper robot that appeared in his bag after the mine incident.]
I hope that whoever or whatever is infecting the water decides to stop very soon. I wasn't thinking earlier and got myself some tea...it's only just worn off.
Ah, well, to get to the point, I've had enough episodes with the water here at the office to the point I had to tell my assistant I've been experimenting with laughter-based therapy. If you're out and about in the area when you've been exposed, I can offer you a place to ride it out without it being too suspicious.
The same goes if your family or friends think there's something wrong with you after one of these incidents--if they want you to seek professional help, I'm a professional and I'm aware of the situation. I can help you with their concerns.
[He leans forward a little and looks into the grasshopper robot's camera.]
And I do have a question...has anyone had issues with the water making items appear in addition to the fits of laughter? I've been locking something in my desk drawer, and it keeps appearing wherever I am when I've been exposed to the water. It's starting to feel as though it's following me. Silly, I know, but when one locks something away, one doesn't expect to turn around and see it sitting there.
[Mort doesn't seem to realize that's the case now, and ignorance is bliss, right? At least it's not surprising him in the shower again.]

give me a second, i'll take a picture.
[ beep! network user has sent the image threeweirdmedals.png as an attachment! ]

...my brother received one very much like that when we first fell into all of this.

[Mort shakes his head.]
I...actually remember a set of similar medals, but they were colored, not just silver like that. Purple ones, actually. I'm not quite sure what it means, but Eugene told a story about them over the network before he left...

It's all rather puzzling.
[Text]
do you think that some people are more connected than others here? sometimes i can go pages and pages without seeing a pulse that has anything to do with me, and other times, it's like the network is plain out to get me.
[Text]
Some people also seem to recognize others from their initial exposure. It's somewhat troubling, really.
[He still finds the strong feelings of distrust, disgust, and mistrust he suddenly developed towards Shuji rather odd...]
[Text]
has that kind of thing happened to you?
[Text]
[There, that was safe. Much safer than continuing on and admitting he strongly disliked the guy for no apparent reason.]
[Text]
given that we seem to have some common... triggers, i guess? would it be accurate to guess that if i met this man, i'd experience the same kind of feeling?
[Text]
[Though they had two very different opinions on the guy...]
[Text]
[Text]
But here.
[Text]
kind of a prickly guy, isn't he? the bird's cute though. familiar in the pulse-y way too.
[Text]
[That's a lie. He's very, very certain this guy is bad news and will ruin everything.]
[Text]
oh, hey, before i never end up mentioning it - i, uh, sort of got a pulse from you? i think your other you was a doctor. is that true?
[Text]
Being a doctor then as I am now would be fitting, I suppose. I have no concrete evidence, but he was definitely a man with some scientific know-how.
[Text]
scientific? so, he's not a medical doctor like you?
[Text]
From what I'm remembering, he had a knack for robotics. I can sketch out blueprints for a small can-shaped octopus robot from memory.
[Text]
so... an engineer? that's really cool! do you think he made the little bird can too? it's so cute!
[Text]
[Good enough for his feelings that the guy will ruin everything.]
I believe so. I've got a grasshopper robot that operates on much the same principal, and they've all felt rather familiar.
[Text]
what a brilliant idea! kind of gimmicky at first, but they seem easy to hide and implement. do you have it on you?
[Text > Video]
[And a video feed will open up. The Batta Candroid is recording itself in a mirror to transmit the image.]
[Text]
[ and it also gave her a small memory! someone wearing a purple shirt, crouched on the floor with the can in his hand to his mouth... huh. why does she think that this person is dangerous? ]
uh... does it also function as a radio?
