[A third read through of the document that had ended up on his device leaves Fitz with a lot of unanswered questions. The guide is a good resource, sure, but there is no way that any of it can be right. At all. He refuses to accept that.

It prompts a bit of panic in the engineer as much as he tries to fight it and it takes a solid hour before he's able to access the network again, typing with shaking fingers.]

I have some questions that I would like clarification on, please.

Mainly in regards to these nanomachines that are supposedly inside us. Has anyone been able to isolate a sample of them and determine they are actually doing what the guide says? That it isn't some sort of strange placebo effect?

Also if

Jemma, Mack, Skye - anyone. If you're seeing this, please respond.

[Ahhh, the arrival of confused, terrified people. It never ends, like the town feeds on it.]

There's been tries. Blood's been spilled and examined. [Zach remembers that time where everyone just decided to stab themselves, more or less. Good times in Norfinbury, part umpteenth.]

But really we know fuck all about what they do, it's all speculation. You a scientist or something? Try House. He's got theories about this stuff.

[onthefitz]

How was it examined? Was there any solid research done? Any analysis?

I am, yes. House? Is he a scientist as well?

[majorlazer]

Shit, no, we were trying not to die. Pretty sure House died in the whole process. Don't remember, I was setting a house on fire. Also we have nothing to do tests with? I think House was looking to build a microscope, dunno if he managed.

He's a doctor. Like, one that diagnoses people.

[onthefitz]

I'll have to ask him then.

Understood. Thank you for the information. It's appreciated.

clarification:
we got sick before they told us the machines had stopped working
placebos typically need a precipitating event
we weren't told anything

[onthefitz]

So information on the sickness came after the fact? Who exactly gave us the information?

What sorts of effects took place when these nanomachines stopped working? The information stated something about radiation but how bad is the exposure rate?

[0thingsonmymind]

ve ry fast
al most fatal

[rubikscomplex]

the admin told us the wireless recharge was down
we had to work out what the hell was going on ourselves
between the symptoms
the clicking from a geiger counter we got later
and the piecemeal system shutdown
we got there

the symptoms were completely out of order, immediate, and severe in all patients
it took us a day or two to get to radiation because symptoms weren't progressing in any way that made sense
nausea and vomiting
followed by diarrhea
reddened skin
then fever
then blistering skin
before we finally got to disorientation, muscle spasms and irregular heartbeat

admin told us different systems were shutting down progressively as they lost power
so all of that points to an exposure rate that makes chernobyl look like a blip

[onthefitz]

I see.

Thank you for the information.

You'll want to talk to Dr. House. @hotstud_xxx. He's very well-informed.

[onthefitz]

So I've been told.

Thank you.

[redrooms]

You're welcome. If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to try to answer them.

[onthefitz]

I'm mostly just concerned about my team at this point. Everything else is getting answered even if I don't like the answers much.

[swatsflies]

I see you got your answers already.
Yo! I'm Zell.
Need to know anything else?

[onthefitz]

In a manner of speaking.

I'm Leo.

I'm not sure yet, to be honest.

[swatsflies]

It's a lot to take in, huh?
Do you know where you're at?

[onthefitz]

It is but I'm use to this sort of thing.

Unfortunately.

I have no idea.

@username; text

[advanced]

Ask @hotstud_xxx. He has examined them under a microscope.

The others you mentioned aren't here.

[onthefitz]

Thank you. I'm talking to him now.

I suppose that's for the best.

Thank you for letting me know.

I'M SO SORRY shortest thread ever :(

[Bucky's got marginally better about just hanging up when he has all the information he needs, or has given all the information he's going to.

But not excessively better.

So the tablet just clicks off.]

[ Fear not, the local name database has arrived! With bad news. ]

Jemma Simmons? Max Rockatansky?

[onthefitz]

[!!!!]

Jemma Simmons

You know Jemma?

Is she here? Where is she?

>> video

[spoileralert]

No.

[ Hold on, she doesn't want to do this over text. She turns on the video. ]

Hi. Listen. It's not good news.

Her name's on the obituaries.
