[Jade had spent months prioritizing the matter of his arm and why a spear could now simply manifest from it at will. So pressing was the matter of this anomaly and the effect on his health that Jade had nearly discarded the involvement of that mysterious number entirely.]

[Nearly.]

[After what must have been his fifth clean physical and third clear X-ray, Jade had finally decided to investigate the other route of determining answers. Instead of decoding the number as he'd intended, Jade instead stumbled upon the network. So that was how he'd spent some number of hours, silently watching and gathering information. Once he'd determined the reasoning behind his circumstances as well as a reason behind that god-awful buzzing. But the possibility of lingering problems still tugged at his mind; while he wasn't one to seek outside consultation, the doctor couldn't quite help typing in the number on the laptop in front of him.]

Good evening--this is Jade Balfour speaking.

There's something that I've been wondering. Has anyone thought to examine the physical or psychological effects of these pulses, echoes, or whatever terminology you prefer? The former of the two is what interests me far more, I must admit. Given the apparent range of effects, it certainly does seem as though some could have an adverse effect on one's health.

yeah seriously.
its all kind of freaky and im not sure everyones even going two like stay alive??
like im p sure someone is turning into a zombie thats got two be bad for you.

[nekromanteia]

I must have missed that one. That certainly doesn't sound healthy.

[mood2wiingiing]

no its really not. lots of vampires two.
only dont call them vampires or talk about stakes or people will gang up on you lmao.
also someones blood is yellow and other people are like turning into robots??

[nekromanteia]

Although that's fascinating, I must say my interest lies more in side effects than the actual events themselves. I don't suppose you know if they happen to be taking the changes well or not?

[mood2wiingiing]

yellow blood guy is a hermit. i think hes not like sick though?? idk.
no clue about everyone else.
i think if they were dying though wed hear about it?

[nekromanteia]

One would think so. But people tend to be irrational when it comes to illnesses, particularly terminal ones.

[mood2wiingiing]

lmao i guess so.

oh also im p sure theres like two people on here who are getting schizophrenia.

[nekromanteia]

And do you mean schizophrenia as in its actual definition, or dissociative identities as people usually think it means?

[jade don't play semantics]

[mood2wiingiing]

i mean hearing voices screaming and whispering and crying almost ALL the time and NEVER shutting up and just being REALLY annoying.

[nekromanteia]

So, the former. How interesting.

[mood2wiingiing]

more like obnoxious but yeah i guess.

[nekromanteia]

To the contrary, it raises an interesting question. Was this something which they were reintroduced to, or did they see or receive something which simply drove them to develop such a mental disorder? I wonder.

[jade what the fuck]

[mood2wiingiing]

the voices just kinda reappeared one day so.
i think the schizo voices are the pulsecho itself.

[nekromanteia]

Fascinating. I wonder why it would be geared to granting that specifically.

[mood2wiingiing]

bad luck is what i think.

[nekromanteia]

That is usually a very viable explanation.
