[network] @jwatson; text; Morning 167 [open]

Good morning, everyone. I told a number of people I would share the results of my conversation with the Admin, Eve, regarding her ability to correct 'mental imbalances' that might lead to violent impulses. I thought it best to provide what information I got from her with the whole group.

[This conversation is copied over for everyone.]

The upshot of that:

Eve can 'fine tune' the nanites in our brains for a particular purpose. This will have no effect on MN poisoning symptoms except to make people not care about them.
Use of the treatment requires patient consent. That's non-negotiable given the requirements for a declaration of mental incompetency under the NIMA system.
While the fine tuning is considered an ethical treatment in extreme cases of violent psychopathy, it is considered unethical to try to treat MN Poisoning.
We may be able to alleviate some of the worst instances of MN Poisoning with blood transfusions. I'm presently looking for the equipment I'd need to do that.
Eve was born in Washington D.C. and used to work for the U.S. government.

As an additional note on medical supplies: I've informed the other doctors, but for those newly arrived and those seeking medical assistance, we are beginning to run low on certain medication types.

[Another conversation is copied over.]

The relative medical stocks stand as such:

Low-grade Painkillers: Low
Mid-grade Painkillers: Acceptable, restock requested
High-grade Painkillers: Acceptable
Specialized Medication: Acceptable
Radiation Medication: Critically low

I've also been previously informed that the emergency medical response injections are out and will take 200 days to restock. That was at a point that would put us past the projected end of this session... or whatever we're calling out time here.

[Honestly, it sounds like Jade needs an intervention, and she, Brian, and Davesprite all need therapy. Massive amounts of therapy. It also seems like the kid is, at least, on top of thinking about everything logically. That's a little troubling, in and of itself, for a teenager.]

Please just remember when it comes down to it that you don't have to deal with this all on your own, okay? It sounds like a lot for one person. I know you said you're talking to Nat and Clint. I'm here as a resource, too, even just to talk, if you need it.

[Please ignore the extraordinary levels of hypocrisy here, Davesprite. John likes to listen and help. He doesn't like to talk and be helped nearly as much.]

[Davesprite has way more problems than Watson is even aware of, but he's a Strider. He was taught to keep it in and keep going anyway, and the alternate timeline that made him what it is just hammered it in.]

stop taking on everyones problems for them watson

I said I'm a resource. How is that taking on your problem?

[Davesprite swaps to video just to give him a look. Do you not remember those past conversations where he was a bratty, stubborn pain in the ass, Watson?]

[Teenagers are changeable! Their moods are like the moon--inconstant.]

Resource. I'm available if you need or want me. Good morning, Davesprite.

can you scale back your overwhelming aura of britishness for just five seconds
nobody says good morning to say goodbye
im half expecting all my water to spontaneously transmute into tea the next time im in your presence
you say loo unironically for fucks sake

I'm British. Sorry I sound British.

and yet im texan and i manage to keep the twang off

It's the way I talk. I'm not going to change it because it's not international enough for you. I'm nowhere near as bad as Alfie.

youre one stubborn limey
this is why we dumped your tea in the harbor
yall were too damn british for us and we just had to put an end to it somewhere

I think that actually had to do with taxes. And you lot not wanting to pay them like the rest of us.

[Shots fired on the American Revolution.]

no taxation without representation
the queen can suck it

Pretty sure it was the king back then.

[Just going to continue being a pedantic British asshole for you, Davesprite.]

the whole royal family can have a suck party for all i care
im gonna learn to make eagle noises just to taunt you

Reckon that means I need to learn how to do robin calls for you.

oh hell no
fuck that and fuck you for saying it
im a crow watson
one of those black noisy assholes that flock around in murders
not some chirpy redbreasted shit
save that for if one of batmans sidekicks shows up

[That actually gets John to snort in amusement.]

Easy, lad. Robins are the national bird of England. That's what the eagle's supposed to be for you, yeah?

i can make whatever bird sounds i want because i am a bird
dont be racist because youre so british you cant function without kissing your shrine to the queen once a day
robins are a shit national bird btw
eagles are cool

Well, I have worked for the royal family on a case before. That was an interesting one. Wouldn't want to bore you with the Britishness of it, though.

what happened
did the queen misplace her crumpets
did some prince wear the wrong cape to the royal dinner
was tea an hour late and you had to find out who was responsible for such treason

Couldn't say. National secrets.

were in postapocalyptic future alaska in another universe and im a debatable member of my earths last dregs of humanity
unless you think the queen mothers gonna pop up here wrinkles and all theres no point keeping it secret

[All of that just says to John that he has Davesprite honestly wanting to know.]

Queen and country, even when they're not here. Sorry, I'm too British, even in the dark.

how loyal is sherlock to queen and country
he seems pretty eager to boast about his giant brain all the time

Extremely. Even more than me, I reckon.

[That's an absolute lie.]
