(21:00:07) ChanServ has changed the topic to: A dead man has been discovered who died of poisoning, and the Sharks are flying over spraying antiviral agents to cleanse the air. A day has passed since the biological attack was discovered. Those on the surface are getting worse with symptoms of skin lesions, headaches, and lack of motor control.

(21:07:39) ColDougMcKnight: Okay, third time's the charm.
(21:07:44) LtCmdrBusard: (Okay, Mibbit's being a little weird, but we're in!)
(21:07:44) LtCmdrBusard: Hoy!
(21:08:07) DrRoxanneCarre: Hiyas
(21:08:13) VAdmBlackthorne: Yeah, that's the second report of Mibbit weirdness I've gotten tonight. :-/
(21:08:16) VAdmBlackthorne: Hope everyone can get in.
(21:08:38) LtJorvanTav [Andy@52-29-34-887.res.bhn.net] entered the room.
(21:08:52) LtJorvanTav: Evening. Liz will be here momentarily
(21:09:03) VAdmBlackthorne: Hiya
(21:10:27) DrRoxanneCarre: Oh, Lt Tav I hope your feeling better tonight.
(21:10:50) LtCmdrBusard: Too bad I'M the sick one now :-(
(21:11:01) LtCmdrBusard: Stoopid toopid yellowjackets.
(21:11:34) VAdmBlackthorne: Ewwww
(21:12:18) DrRoxanneCarre: owowowow (meat tenderizer on that will help oddly enough)
(21:12:25) VAdmBlackthorne: A hammer?
(21:14:28) CdrHarper [Mibbit@ihmo-40-564-22-286.rcmdva.fios.verizon.net] entered the room.
(21:16:42) LtJorvanTav: I am feeling better. I think we can pull me out of that coma at some point. Now, waking up Liz... I seem to be having a difficult time with that
(21:17:07) LtJorvanTav: Sorry to hear about the sting. That really sucks
(21:20:07) LtCmdrBusard: Eh, I'm just annoyed that 1) The bugger stung me twice right on the stomach, and 2) it's made me horrendously sick.
(21:20:44) LtJorvanTav: Yuck. How long ago was it?
(21:21:25) LtCmdrBusard: Three days ago. It seems that the worst is past, but still is blech-y.
(21:21:52) VAdmBlackthorne: In retaliation, you should exterminate the Rachni and kill their queen in Mass Effect 1.
(21:22:28) LtCmdrBusard: Lmao, tempting, but one of Mike's friends is borrowing my copy right now.
(21:22:41) VAdmBlackthorne: Bugs. Ugh.
(21:22:57) LtCmdrBusard: I can, however, put bugs in cages and hand them off to unsuspecting others on Harvest Moon as "gifts".
(21:23:09) LtCmdrBusard: Here, friend. Have a gift! LOCUSTS.
(21:23:29) VAdmBlackthorne: PESTILENCE
(21:26:43) VAdmBlackthorne: Alright, I think we'll have to start without our Vulcan tonight.
(21:27:19) VAdmBlackthorne: Colonel, would you care to do the ear-splitting honors?
(21:27:30) ColDougMcKnight: I can do that.
(21:27:56) ColDougMcKnight: :: Takes a deep breath before starting in with the whistle. ::

(21:30:08) VAdmBlackthorne has changed the topic to: Dr. Carre has managed to create an agent that will neutralize the venom that attacks the cells damaged by the virus attacks, with a separate variety to combat an adverse reaction from Trills. Teams are beginning to administer the hypos to those planetside, starting with our people, but news travels fast and some colonists are getting impatient...
(21:30:14) VAdmBlackthorne: Questions?
(21:31:01) DrRoxanneCarre: Is the magic ingredient chocolate?
(21:31:14) VAdmBlackthorne: It's your cure!
(21:31:28) DrRoxanneCarre: Oh righto then.
(21:31:30) ColDougMcKnight: It was mentioned last time that this would result in some improvement in the condition of those afflicted.
(21:31:53) ColDougMcKnight: How much better should we be after being treated?
(21:32:34) DrRoxanneCarre: Yes, it neutralizes the venom which is causing the ulcers and skin problems. However, its not an instant 'cure'. People will still get sick, but most likely they wont die.
(21:33:32) DrRoxanneCarre: They were dying because the venom is a neuraltoxin that builds up, the vaccine neutralizes it.
(21:33:32) ColDougMcKnight: Okay. So...we'll look better, but still suffer the nervous system problems? Shakes and the like?
(21:33:39) DrRoxanneCarre: Yep!
(21:33:44) ColDougMcKnight: Sweet, thanks.
(21:33:52) VAdmBlackthorne: Alright then....

(21:36:20) ColDougMcKnight: (Wait, sorry. One more question. If teams are being sent down to distribute the vaccine, then what did the Sharks crop dust us with?)

(21:38:11) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ Carre here.
(21:38:21) LtCmdrBusard: :: Looks over at Harper, trying not to look desperate for info:: Hey...uh...how'd it go?
(21:38:21) ColDougMcKnight: (Ah, so does that mean it's safe for people to start beaming down without protective gear?)
(21:38:29) VAdmBlackthorne: :: stops in the ready room :: +Carre+ Blackthorne here, go ahead.
(21:38:46) DrRoxanneCarre: (Not quite yet give it an hour or two to float down to the surface level)
(21:39:15) ColDougMcKnight: (Kay.)
(21:39:27) CdrHarper: :: turns to Busard, not missing the point of her question :: We were quite thorough.
(21:39:34) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ I've got the vaccine down on the surface being handed out to the away team and surface inhabitants.
(21:39:58) VAdmBlackthorne: +Carre+ Ensure the away team has priority. We'll need them to help keep the populace orderly.
(21:40:33) VAdmBlackthorne: +Carre+ Following them, the colony's medical staff.
(21:40:50) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ I have done that, but those people are a bit desperate. I've also sent down as many tech's in CC5 suits as possible to hurry up the process.
(21:41:26) LtCmdrBusard: :: Nods:: Oh, oh good. :: She pauses :: I'm constructing a design for dispersal stations that we can set down strategically around the colony and other affected areas. You know, so you don't have to do that crop dusting thing again.
(21:41:29) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ Each person has to be hydrated for the serum to work properly.
(21:41:52) VAdmBlackthorne: +Carre+ I trust that information is known by your teams?
(21:42:00) ColDougMcKnight: :: Tosses a camping hatchet onto the now sizable pile o' weapons in the middle of the colony before settling down onto a nearby bench. :: Okay, that's everything. Move it all into the main security lockup, and keep a 2 man guard on it at all times. That should buy us a couple hours peace and quiet until they can start beaming reinforcements down here.
(21:42:54) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ Yes I've stressed it multiple times. I've also sent down a batch of Trill-specific serum and dosed up our resident Trill who should be feeling better before too long.
(21:42:55) CdrHarper: Crop dusting? We did not- OH. Right. Your impromptu dispersion mechanism worked quite well. I only had one jam.
(21:43:07) LtJorvanTav: :: fidgets, still thinking about the cure as though he hadn't even gone down :: ...and so, I think we have the perfect mixture that, while you can't take care of the... :: opens his eyes a slit and notices he is not in the Science Lab, but in Sickbay :: What happened?
(21:43:14) VAdmBlackthorne: +Carre+ Can the quarantine aboard ship be released?
(21:44:09) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ Yes and everyone on board should be vaccinated too, just in case someone drags it back with them.
(21:44:28) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ I'll be up to get the bridge staff shortly.
(21:44:29) VAdmBlackthorne: +Carre+ Do you have the personnel available to do that?
(21:45:13) VAdmBlackthorne: Syvek> :: arrives to McKnight's location :: Reporting as ordered, Colonel.
(21:45:34) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ Not particularly. We'll catch as many as we can and keep track of who's missing out. I will eventually get them all. *cackles*
(21:46:16) LtCmdrBusard: Yeah, sorry about that. Didn't have time to run all the tests I wanted to.
(21:46:29) LtCmdrBusard: Still, one jam is better than more than one.
(21:46:49) CdrHarper: :: smiles :: We were short on time. I rolled back and forth violently a couple of times and it came loose.
(21:47:00) VAdmBlackthorne: +Carre+ Alright, keep me updated. Good work, doctor.
(21:47:04) DrRoxanneCarre: +Blackthorne+ I'll be up shortly and will send you a synopsis report in the mean time. I have patients needing attenting. Carre out.
(21:47:58) VAdmBlackthorne: :: heads back to the FO and grabs another box of glassware ::
(21:48:05) DrRoxanneCarre: :: Walks over to check on LtTav now that he appears to be among the living again :: Well, Trills appear to have issues with venom!
(21:49:22) LtCmdrBusard: Oh good.
(21:49:30) ColDougMcKnight: :: Looks up at Syvek, fresh as a daisy and barely a spot on his armor, and cracks down on a sudden, petty urge to spit on his boot. Instead, he rises to his feet, using his safetied rifle as a support. :: That time already, is it? Okay, let's take a walk to the security station. I can at least keep an eye on the colony's security feeds.
(21:49:54) VAdmBlackthorne: :: pauses in the FO :: +McKnight+ Blackthorne to McKnight.
(21:49:59) DrRoxanneCarre: Thanks to you and that teeny hole you had in your suit the surface Trills also have a cure!
(21:51:41) LtJorvanTav: :: groans miserably and thinks a moment :: Glad I could help. How long have I been out?
(21:53:50) ColDougMcKnight: +Blackthorne+ McKnight here. Go ahead, sir.
(21:53:54) VAdmBlackthorne: Syvek> :: waits patiently as the comm comes in ::
(21:54:29) DrRoxanneCarre: Not too long maybe an hour or so? Might as well relax since you're not going anywhere anytime soon.
(21:54:54) VAdmBlackthorne: +McKnight+ Colonel, some good news for you. Dr. Carre has created a partial cure that will at least keep you alive, and clear up some of the symptoms.
(21:55:31) LtJorvanTav: :: looks to the Doctor in a wince :: And the cure? How is it coming?
(21:56:16) ColDougMcKnight: :: Shoots Syvek a glance as he gestures that they should keep moving. He's not letting this thing slow him down more than he has to. :: +Blackthorne+ Alive is good. I'd call that a good start. Which symptoms specifically?
(21:56:58) DrRoxanneCarre: Its on the surface being doled out as we speak. Hydration is quite important so you'll be needing an IV or two more.
(21:57:08) VAdmBlackthorne: +McKnight+ I'm not entirely sure, but alive is good. The medical teams down there will be distributing this to our people first, then the medical staff, then the colonists.
(21:57:17) VAdmBlackthorne: Syvek> :: walks with McKnight ::
(21:58:16) LtCmdrBusard: :: Makes a couple more adjustments to the blueprints before heading to the big replicators. A couple of minibots pop out of her various pouches and watch as she replicates the parts needed for the prototype::
(22:00:19) LtJorvanTav: That's good. That's very good. :: lays his head back on the biobed ::
(22:00:20) DrRoxanneCarre: :: suddenly realizes she is exhausted and needs a caffine jolt :: Would you like something to drink? I'm encouraging all fluid intake.
(22:01:53) LtJorvanTav: :: thinks a moment :: Hmm... As I think about it, a cold glass of Zarganthian ale does sound nice... but I could go for something more readily availabe, too.
(22:04:08) ColDougMcKnight: :: Frowns :: +Blackthorne+ Starting with medical staff makes sense...but is it really fair for us to get first dibs, sir? We're the least critical cases down here.
(22:04:33) DrRoxanneCarre: :: moves over to the replicator and orders her usual coffee jolt, and a nice sweet iced tea with a bit of salt around the lip of the glass :: Okay, try this. Its pretty good and good for you.
(22:04:53) VAdmBlackthorne: +McKnight+ I need you all in top form in case the colonists get unruly. There will be time to get everyone.
(22:05:28) LtJorvanTav: Thank you, Doctor. :: takes a sip :: Well, it's certainly not ale, but this is very nice.
(22:05:29) VAdmBlackthorne: +McKnight+ Well, as top as your forms can be, given the circumstances.
(22:06:22) DrRoxanneCarre: :: PADDs in a note to restrict alcohol consumption by anyone thought to have the virus ::
(22:07:15) ColDougMcKnight: + Blackthorne + Very well, sir. But you should be aware, until we see what this partial treatment does for us, I've judged myself no longer medically competent to command the ground presence. Future comms and updates should go directly to Lieutenant Syvek, at least until reinforcements arrive. He's the senior most healthy officer present, so he's in
(22:07:17) ColDougMcKnight: command.
(22:08:27) VAdmBlackthorne: +McKnight+ Acknowleged, Colonel. Take care of yourself.
(22:09:50) LtCmdrBusard: :: Finishes putting the prototype together, looking it up and down before comming Carre:: +Carre+ Busard to Carre. I've got something I think you might like. Sending blueprint schematics to your PADD, but while I'm at it, how's progress for the treatment going?
(22:10:17) ColDougMcKnight: + Blackthorne + Don't worry about me. So long as I won't agree to go under, this damn super flu's stuck. Anything else, sir?
(22:11:07) VAdmBlackthorne: +McKnight+ Ensure Lt. Syvek keeps those colonists orderly, but you know that already. Desperate people can do crazy things.
(22:13:22) DrRoxanneCarre: +Busard+ I've got it down on the surface being handed out.
(22:14:13) ColDougMcKnight: + Blackthorne + So I've seen. We've just finished a door to door sweep and confiscated any and all weapons we could find. Mind you, bare hands are enough if you're motivated, but I'm hoping they won't have that much incentive for awhile yet.
(22:14:30) DrRoxanneCarre: :: looks over the blue prints quickly :: +Busard+ Those look like they'll work but we probably wont be needing too many of them. As soon as we find the source it should all clear up.
(22:15:11) VAdmBlackthorne: +McKnight+ Good luck, Colonel, and see you soon. Blackthorne out.
(22:16:31) VAdmBlackthorne: :: carries the box out across the bridge and notices Harper :: Kate, you look like shit.
(22:17:10) CdrHarper: :: looks up from the Helm and smirks:: You are not exactly the portrait of health either, sir.
(22:17:29) VAdmBlackthorne: I'm not the one that has to fly fighters. You, and all of the Sharks, go get some sleep. That's an order, I can't have you all flying like that.
(22:17:42) LtCmdrBusard: +Carre+ Yeah, that was my thought. Problem is, we can't necessarily dust the entire planetoid surface, and if I know viruses, they have a penchant for adapting and coming back to bite you in the ass, yeah? I just thought a dispersal system would be a good idea to counteract any evolution in the virus if that should happen.
(22:18:22) CdrHarper: :: opens her mouth to protest, then her brain strangles her larynx in a WTF are you thinking kind of way ::: A - yes, sir.
(22:18:59) DrRoxanneCarre: +Busard+ Oh right, good idea then. How long do you think until they are operational?
(22:19:02) CdrHarper: :: secures the helm, sends out a quick memo to all pilots to sleep, and heads into the TL toward her quarters ::
(22:19:40) VAdmBlackthorne: :: carries the box into the RR, gingerly puts it down, then leans on the desk as he groans against the headache :: God. DAMMIT. OW.
(22:20:50) LtCmdrBusard: I've got one prototype operational right now. I can replicate them and get another two or three done in the next hour.
(22:21:29) ColDougMcKnight: Let's stop by the hospital, then. If I need to be pampered, then there's no sense forcing anyone to make a house call on my account.
(22:21:50) VAdmBlackthorne: Syvek> Yes sir.
(22:22:11) DrRoxanneCarre: +Busard+ Great, that frees up some manpower. Nice job Perc.
(22:22:28) VAdmBlackthorne: :: opens his eyes after the pain flares down from blindingly white hot and puts his hand to his face, which comes back bloody from a nosebleed ::
(22:23:18) VAdmBlackthorne: :: crosses to the replicator :: Towel.
(22:24:42) LtCmdrBusard: +Carre+ No problem. Just make sure a certain marine down there doesn't kick it and we'll call it even.
(22:24:46) VAdmBlackthorne: :: holds the towel to his nose :: Damn did I overdo it.
(22:25:21) DrRoxanneCarre: +Busard+ We're workin on it! Speaking of which I'll see you shortly for your shot. Carre out.

(22:41:28) DrRoxanneCarre: :: walks over and replicates a large glass of water, with ice :: Oh true. :: removes the scotch and replaces it with water :: I have a couple of hypos for you. You'll have to drink this water and avoid alcohol.

(22:42:53) DrRoxanneCarre: :: zaps Blackthorne with the vaccine hypo and then a secondary pain hypo :: One for the virus, second is for the headache. You'll probably get more bloody noses but at least the pain should reduce.

(22:44:29) ColDougMcKnight: :: The resentment is not lost on him, but he knows that no explanation will banish the sentiment, and he'll only look weak trying. So instead, he just does his best to ignore it, and reclines as ordered. :: Let's just get this done as quick as possible, alright?

(23:02:06) VAdmBlackthorne: ACTION> Word seems to have gotten around, and more and more colonists begin assembling outside the little hospital.
(23:02:27) DrRoxanneCarre: Well I'd love to stay and chat as being off my feet is heavenly, but there's a crew to stick holes in! Thanks for the breather! :: stands up to depart ::
(23:02:47) VAdmBlackthorne: Thanks again, Doc.
(23:03:27) DrRoxanneCarre: :: smiles :: Anytime. :: departs, checking her PADD for the next likely victim ::
(23:04:13) ColDougMcKnight: :: Looks up with a frown as his ears pick up on the increased bustle at the door. :: Syvek.
(23:04:21) VAdmBlackthorne: ACTION> As the crowd grows, a few vocal people start rabble-rousing.
(23:04:47) VAdmBlackthorne: Syvek> Sir. :: strides briskly toward the door, checking that his rifle is on stun ::
(23:06:35) VAdmBlackthorne: :: discards the bloody towel in the recycler and composes himself ::
(23:06:54) VAdmBlackthorne: (ah crap, didn't see the time! Four minutes!)
(23:07:41) VAdmBlackthorne: Syvek> :: emerges to find a few colonists yelling about getting cured NOW, and everyone else cheering behind them ::
(23:08:26) ColDougMcKnight: :: Taps his comm badge. :: Sergeant Riley, this is McKnight. I want you to dispatch a half squad to the colony hospital. You'll find a crowd outside. Keep your distance, but be ready to assist Lieutenant Syvek if he signals for it.
(23:09:01) DrRoxanneCarre: :: heads down to crew quarters :: Computer open this door, medical override Carre beta three nine.
(23:09:02) ColDougMcKnight: Riley> +McKnight+ Aye, sir. They're beaming over now.
(23:09:23) VAdmBlackthorne: Syvek> :: through the suit's loudspeaker :: You all must calm down immediately. The serum will be administered to everyone in an orderly fashion!

(23:10:05) DrRoxanneCarre: :: enters the room and approaches the sleeping resident, wands them :: Kate! :: pokes her ::
(23:10:09) CdrHarper: Mrph.

(23:10:37) CdrHarper: :: eyes open into slits, looking blearily at whoever is accosting her :: Bacon?
(23:10:54) DrRoxanneCarre: No, Roxanne!
(23:11:14) CdrHarper: :: blinks a few times :: Oh, hi Rox. Why are you waking me up? :(
(23:11:37) DrRoxanneCarre: :: moves to the replicator, makes water and bacon :: Because I have to innoculate you.
(23:11:49) VAdmBlackthorne: AngryColonist1> They're hogging the bloody medicine for themselves they are!
(23:12:18) CdrHarper: And you could not wait until I had more than... :: checks the time :: Half an hour of sleep?
(23:12:34) DrRoxanneCarre: I'm prescribing water and bacon to compliment your treatment. So do that hourly. :: hypos her, then holds out the water and bacon ::
(23:12:46) DrRoxanneCarre: Pfft! You sleep too much anyway.
(23:12:47) CdrHarper: :: hypoed, drinks the water, then bacons ::
(23:13:04) CdrHarper: Okay. Thanks, Rox.
(23:13:38) VAdmBlackthorne: AngryColonist2> Maybe there is no cure and they're just stalling while we all wait to die!
(23:13:45) DrRoxanneCarre: Next 24 hours, at least drink the water. Night Kate! :: departs the room looking for her next victim ::
(23:13:51) ColDougMcKnight: ( Christ, Harper must work out like a hampster on Red Bull off screen to make up for all that bacon.)
(23:14:14) ColDougMcKnight: Christ almighty.
(23:14:15) CdrHarper: (I play a lot of tennis!)
(23:14:20) ColDougMcKnight: Rak'nar, can you stand?
(23:14:27) CdrHarper: :: finishes baconing, falls back asleep ::
