It's gotten worse?

This again...

It's more that it's spreading.

I'm sorry, I'm sure you're busy. I hope the little boy and his father get better.

Numbers. Not a single case has recovered. Unfortunately, we have a pretty large sample with which to crunch numbers... Without any clues to a cause or any different action to be taken, there's no reason to expect a different outcome. Even if new methods are tried, they're baseless shots in the dark.

What made the other two marks on his arm?

A mystery is
much like a game of pursuit

in which you know not

of the true goal
you must obtain. [See that smile? She's trying to be friendly. Too bad this might come off as creepy.]

always video

[He's not in a mood to be moderately afraid, which makes him a little more honest and a little less polite.]

I know the goal: saving lives. This round, it's impossible again.

The cause of death,
Ozaki Toshio,

what was it?

What has made this so
disturbing?

[identity profile] sotobas-lot.livejournal.com 2011-09-08 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
It's like this community. How it does what it does is impossible to trace and therefore impossible to prevent, stop or even slow. Onset kills a victim in four or five days, without fail.
hugmyscythe: (wasting time)

[personal profile] hugmyscythe 2011-09-08 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
But you are
still searching.

If all other leads

are exhausted, then perhaps
it is the impossible to which
you must turn.

There's no choice but to try things that we have no reason to believe will work, that have no connections to anything. Vitamins. Transfusions.

[With an ill humored single beat of laughter, he finds a cigarette. He's not sure he has the energy to light it now, but after coming this far, it might look too pathetic to stop.]

Of course, it's just busywork. We may as well be rain dancing.

[Exhale.]

I wonder if they'd call this fraud or if I could just get by being labeled a quack.

Do they all have those "bug bites"?

Sorry for the delay, went on break, missed this notif. Feel free to drop thread.

It's summer, in the woods. Even the shut-ins have bug bites.

mo_om but kefka needs to be helpful so he can watch ozaki's plot

[identity profile] sandinmyboots.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Have you seen bug bites like the ones on the victims before?

[identity profile] sotobas-lot.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yes, even if not on all of them. The fact that when he notices them, he notices two just like that is now bothering him, regardless.]

It's a wooded village in the summer. Not having them would be strange.

[identity profile] sandinmyboots.livejournal.com 2011-09-18 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
No, no, no, you don't understand my meaning! Sandray bites look different from Alacran bites look different from Bug bites and so on and so forth, and you treat the first two with Antidotes and the latter with Softs. Have you seen this specific type of bug bite before this epidemic?

There's noting to suggest poison in the bloodstreams from any of the chemical tests performed. Even a severe blood thinner should leave some chemical trace, a heightened amount of its product.

[identity profile] sotobas-lot.livejournal.com 2011-09-17 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
No particular fatigue or lack of focus. No reason to suspect that I'm infected.

that's alright!

[identity profile] onesnipe.livejournal.com 2011-09-19 11:36 am (UTC)(link)
Is it still anemia? Just like that girl?

[identity profile] sotobas-lot.livejournal.com 2011-09-19 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
That's right. The count is rising every day. The only thing I've been able to figure out with any accuracy is approximately how long until they're gone.

[identity profile] onesnipe.livejournal.com 2011-09-20 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
How many cases has it been so far?

[identity profile] sotobas-lot.livejournal.com 2011-09-20 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
More than fifteen. A few have gone out of my care, to city hospitals, or transferred out of town. We have at least one funeral per week.

By the end of the week, we'll probably be having a double funeral.
