[PUBLIC]

Dr. Strider here. I'm back. I apologize -- personal business took me away from the city shortly before the Dead District bombing, and I've only just been able to return.

Has anyone discovered the culprits behind the explosion? I mean, we all suspect ThunderCorp and its allies, but has anyone been able to PROVE it? What about the bombs themselves -- have we been able to discern what the bombs were? Not an easy task, I'm sure, since of course the police will be keeping everyone out, but it's worth asking.

And what about the Tuning Towers buzzing?

Has anyone located the source?

[FILTERED TO EMMANUEL]

I'd like to talk to you about those legends you mentioned a few weeks ago.

[FILTERED TO SOPHIE]

[voice:]

You were the one who could see the shape of things underground. Am I right?

[Action, clinic, Wednesday the 13th, locked to Ravi]

[Aaron came back two days ago, looking -- well, looking not quite so bad as he did when he left. His first night here was sleepless, though; he has just as much on his mind as he did when he left.

He needs to speak with somebody about this, though. Somebody he knows won't spread this information around, someone who understands the dangers of panic. There had already been an ill-advised attack on Tuning Towers, for god's sake. He didn't want to think about what would happen if he told the whole host of numbered about what he knew.

Ravi was going to be that person, and when he came in, Aaron was busy with a patient. As soon as Aaron was free, though, as soon as all information had been exchanged and payment secured and the young woman was on her way, he went into the small, windowless room that served as an office, filed her information, then stuck his head out the door.]

Ravi? I need to talk to you for a minute.

Biggest new thing is that we know what a vermaxi is now, because it crashed a party and almost killed a bunch of us

we also know that the vermaxi are what produces the pink giggle juice. still dunno why it causes the giggles

nothing else yet though

...good god.

Did you see it yourself? Can you describe it?

yeah

It was big. Roughly bipedal, and I think it was humanoid but it was really hard to tell, because like the Vermedi it was covered in big spikes. Those spikes dripped pink fluid. It had huge, white eyes. The spikes are why I think it might have been that Vermaxi.

Thing looked injured and agitated though, like it had escaped something, not like it had been let loose, if that makes sense? It had marks from some kind of restraints, I think.

It had some kind of telekinetic powers, it kept turning the concrete and dirt into various objects, like shields or thorn covered vines or whatever.

It vanished halfway through, and then some other thing attacked, but I didn't get a good look at the second one. Too busy trying to get the hell out of dodge.

It sounds both dangerous and disgusting.

Yeah it was a real piece of work. Not looking forward to meeting another one.

Idk if anyone managed to grab samples of the fluid for testing. Would have been nice to get it in pure form, y'know?

Agreed. It might be worth asking around -- I know Dr. Solus for one would be delighted to get his hands on it, even if he'd never show it.

lol mordin would probably just die to play with that stuff

i've asked around a few times to no avail though

maybe you'll have better luck?

I'll try. Did anyone see where it went, or did everyone run?

i dunno, sorry :(

someone might have? ask raven
