[Well, damn.]

what about drawing the symbol directly onto your body and flashing that?
i'm assuming you non-believers used paper

I assume by "non-believers" you mean people who think dying puts a crimp in the pursuit of knowledge. No windows. Just using paper was a pretty big risk.

you assume incorrectly, stiffi
i mean people who are 't the fanatic static people telling us to kill or believe in the prophet
anyway, that's still something that needs to be tested
try drawing it on your hand next time

All the same I think I'll wait until there's a window between me and certain death.

spoilsport

how does a guy get his hands on the sweet bling?
do i gotta go kiss up to angelcakes?
i can promise never to deduce letterman again

Special deal: all you have to do is punch Sherlock. Preferably in the face, but I'll take what I can get.

[ She has no idea if she can transfer the app but she's willing to bluff for a good cause! ]

you want me to punch sherlock holmes?
sick
next time i see the guy
do i gotta snap pics or...?

[ Nobody fucks with her boyfriend but her, okay? ]

Pics would be hilarious, but not a requirement. Especially if he's as combat ready as we've been led to believe.

deal, brown

[Yes, yes, yes! This is interesting, this is the sort of thing he wants. An actual anomaly trapped and ready for study; nearby, too. House goes up in his estimation just from giving him something to pierce his black mood.

Not that he's going to say thank you, he'll just ask the other important questions.]

How many times have you died, Dr. House? Two or three? More than once, that's for certain.

[So, he's 'Dr. House' now. Fun. House rolls his eyes. There's someone willing to potentially go down and do this experiment for him, so he'll play nice for now.

'Nice.']

four
living is so passe

[Interesting.]

And how long have you been fascinated with your own death?

considering two out of four were me getting stabbed
you be the judge

Method is irrelevant in this circumstance.

[But this is a chance to test a theory.]

Are you suffering any NIMA related problems?

nope
not sick
not manic
not in pain
not obsessed

those're the ones we know about for sure, anyway

it's interesting given i've probably been pumped full of more mn than most people

[Excellent, that's what he's hoped to hear.]

Have any studies been conducted into the correlation between extended lack of symptoms and likelihood of revival?

no
i was trying to track mn poisoning levels and various factors for a while
admin cut off the info months ago and hasn't responded to requests for poisoning levels since

[He'll even provide you with his spreadsheet, Sherlock. Isn't he nice?]

based on the cases i know
i haven't seen a correlation
it's difficult to track when people don't actually report their symptoms, too

Edited 2016-10-08 23:10 (UTC)

[He will just bookmark that spreadsheet now, and tut to himself about uncooperative experimental subjects.]

You should find the worst sufferer of each symptom and take a blood sample to test.

i'd need to coordinate getting all of them to the hospital
we don't have supplies to preserve samples here
there's a compound microscope i enhanced in the hospital, first floor

[Sherlock will be sent a rather precise layout drawing of the first floor of the hospital. There is a cabinet marked with 'microscope' in the administration office.]

you're closer
the best i've got right now is a magnifying glass
@zd's at a high pain level
never killed
he's probably close enough to make the trip to the hospital easily for you to examine

[He will make John find the other people and get them to the hospital, the logistics of actually convincing people to join him sound exhausting.]

I am going to see the anomaly first, I will conduct NIMA related experiments when I reach the hospital.

[At least someone understands his love for a good puzzle.]

When you die again, come to me as soon as it's convenient for examination.

[Finally someone who will go conduct the experiments he wants to but doesn't have the time for.]

keep me updated
i'm working on a theory in the eastern tunnels

i can trade you over the eye app from my contact if you want to work with it
or just ask @donner directly
provided you can share
you can use it

[He's just not going to touch the issue of his next death. House has been contemplating it and the fact that he'd really like to not be weak from self-inflicted hunger. They still haven't checked what might happen to someone staying in the food restock points overnight...

That's a dark thought that will have to wait, though. He has another project for the moment.]

[He's not fooled. He knows this man has an obsession with his own death, and is likely to pursue it again. Possibly at his own hand, more likely antagonising a person to do it for him, a way to lie to himself and say he didn't want to die.

He doesn't care.

He'll take the data if he does dies, when he dies, until then he's not going to spend his time trying to act the Samaritan.]

Send me the app.

[And then he switches to private, not seeing the need to be anything other than candid here.]

I will send you my notes, observations, and photographs in return for a prescription of morphine. I cannot think clearly with this bullet wound.

how many of the others have you gotten to write you a prescription so far?
i wanna know how impressed i should be

and we'll send you the app when you get to the fire station
it's anomaly city in the museum
if those idiots do the sensible thing like split the group for exploration
that'll be one thing
if they all stick together like morons
they're gonna need the app more than you or me in the immediate term
