[Audio: The Hot Zone] Monday evening, week 18

[pepperspray]

This is Pepper Potts.

I'm going to keep details thin in an open broadcast like this, but I've gotten information from a contact that suggests a potential location for the start of this current disease outbreak.

It will require travel over water, so air transport or the ability to transport yourself or others will be required to accomplish this in a timely fashion. There's also a risk of active disease agents still being present, so some sort of containment gear might be good.

My talents are very much not medical research ones, so don't ask me for details, but this might, I hope, help people who do have those talents figure out just what's going on here.

I can offer transport and I seem immune to this disease.

I'd like to help.

And I was hoping to play pirate, too.

I'll get the details in person. Especially the "what sort of samples are we looking at here" part.

[thefuzzyguy]

Um... Transport is kind of a specialty of mine... And I guess I should stop talking about that. And I was sick, but I'm much better now.

[Oh, Kurt, you little liar. He does look a little like death warmed over, even with the help of the inducer, but he's not coughing his lungs out anymore.]

[Have a tired-looking but smiling werewolf, Pepper.]

Apparently you are the dispenser of marching orders around here, Miss Potts. Is there anything I can do to be of assistance, that does not require my actually traveling?

[Because air transport plus werewolves does not for a good idea.]

I'd like to help in any way I can. I'm immune, for uh. Obvious reasons. I can't... fly or swim, but I do have a ground vehicle mode that can carry a few humans- er. Human-sized organics.

[steamosaurus]

Oh, I would love to be of some assistance! I'm afraid most air travel around here seems to be built for hominids, but if I happen to be wrong, I'm an excellent piolet- ah-choo!

[Yup, the dinosaur is definitely sniffly.]

Forgive me, I seem to have caught a bit of a cold. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the illness going around, though.

Anyway, I can assist... ground transport, if there's no airships capable of handling my size.

[She sounds a bit sad and wistful. Boy, does Darwin miss flying.]

[redledgerdays]

I'll go. [she's not medical, but she can at least keep people safe]

You know, it's probably too much to ask that the decon chambers still be working after a crash, but I've never been on a spaceship that hasn't kept at least a few spare containment suits around for emergencies.

I'm healthy - so far, anyway - and I can lend a hand wherever I'm needed.

Hey darlin'. Sounds like you've got enough people goin'.
