I wasn't sure if you would anyway. I think the normie doctor would be the only way to get my hand on one of those. [ha. because she only has one that's usable. another weak joke, but she's doing what she can to make the best of a grim situation.]

Or I could make one myself, I guess? I don't know. Hey, Ravi, uh. Off the record. [she gives him a cautious look. she knows he won't know the answer, but she needs to ask anyway, if for no other reason than to make her worries known.]

Somebody got me thinking that maybe this isn't the end of this particular echo. If it doesn't spread to the rest of my body, how bad do you think it could get?
