Who: Coil Lenn
Broadcast: Open
Action: SS Red Fish
When: Nov. 26th, morning


[sometime in what could be considered the early hours of 'morning,' a transmission is sent out to every ship. it's only text at first, and it has taken its author an embarrassingly long time to type out.]

pos. samples show unfam. protein action
isolat predatory protein, but diff. to denature
prion? but neg. for aggregates
acting sim. to chaperone? but no trail b/c lack of residue after disassembly


[and then--of course--he remembers the rest of what he wanted to say after he sends it. so, video follows a few seconds after the text message. the camera comes on as a very sick-looking, scraggly teenager is finishing up scrawling something onto the back of his lab notes and then holding it up for the camera to see. he's so tired of trying to type this stuff out it's not even funny.]

'protein structures are solid in native state but I think we can destabilize them'

[and once he's given viewers a few seconds to read, he sets the paper down to write one more word in large letters and emphasizes with scribbly underlining]

'C U R E'

[the video connection is then left open, obviously waiting for responses.]

[Woe, that makes her laugh at him more. Eventually she gets it together enough to tell him something important.]

You're such a teenager.

I'm sorry, but surly unfriendliness is very teenagerish! [She laughs again in a good-natured way and digs back into her food.]

[She picks the formula up and glances it over. Hange might be goofing around half the time and severely sleep deprived seventy-five percent of the time, but her eyes are still keen.]

Nice job, kiddo. [And then she sets it back down and munches more chicken. Honjo approves.]
