Video, Monday Week 44

[wrench_and_ruffles]

[The setting in behind Kaylee is fairly recognizable as the area right outside the ship. Which isn't surprising, as the smudge of grease on her face suggests she's very recently been pretty deep in a generator or engine.]

Alright, I ain't the only one who's been feelin' right discombobulated when they go on or off the ship the past coupla weeks, am I? Thought I might be comin' down with somethin' at first, but that's the only time I get all dizzy like. Wouldn't be the weirdest thing the ship's ever done I guess...

Maybe you're allergic to distortions in space-time.

[There's a brief pause.]

Or you're pregnant.

[She needs a moment after that last suggestion]

That ain't terribly likely, we've been mighty careful. 'Sides, it's only goin' on and off the ship.

[nodavinci]

Hey, it's an important variable to rule out.

[That or he's being a deliberate nuisance. Which, given this is a day that ends in "y", is not unlikely.]

How long's a couple of weeks? Ballpark it.

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Two, maybe three? Long enough to be pretty sure it's just around the ship so probably not the other thing.

[unofficial_ambassador]

Do we need to talk?

[wrench_and_ruffles]

'Bout what?

[last_ofthe_jedi]

[So much concern but Luke doesn't follow the same conclusion as everyone else because he's just oblivious like that.]

I know you're probably tired of hearing it from me but I told you there's something not right about that ship.

[catchingflies]

Oh. That's, uh, that's a thing?

[Todd goes everywhere, okay. Sometimes he goes to the ship. And it's not to prod at Pietro's pod, okay? It's not. Honest.

He looks a little awkward now, though, as if it hadn't occurred to him that it wasn't just him.]

[nodavinci]

So a little after the power reserves went nova.

[hypospraying]

Is it just dizziness, Kaylee? Or are there any other symptoms?

[unofficial_ambassador]

[Is it possible for someone to inherit annoying mannerisms from people to whom they aren't even related? Because this is Zoe-level nonsense]

Kaylee.

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Yeah. Wouldn't be the first weird thing the ship's done.

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Yeah?

[It has not yet occurred to her that someone else might come to that conclusion]

Re: [Video]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Well it did grab us all from all over.

Re: [Video]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

What? Gettin' dizzy around the ship?

Re: [video]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Whatcha mean, other symptoms? It's just... feeling dizzy and outta sorts for a bit.

[unofficial_ambassador]

[It hasn't really occurred to her that Kaylee can possibly not understand what she's getting at]

Mei mei. We've been friends for a long time. If you want to tell me anything, I'm at the library.

Re: [video]

[hypospraying]

Just trying to narrow down what it might be. Knowing the funny things that happen around the Ship, I wouldn't put it past the place to be putting something out into the air that might make you sick.

[wrench_and_ruffles]

I'll come by.

[Figure out what all this is about]

Re: [video]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Well... it is the ship. But just dizzy, for a coupla minutes. It always passes.

Re: [video]

[hypospraying]

I don't know, Kaylee. The Ship could have a high electromagnetic field, or some gas leaking out, or any number of things. You say you think others are probably getting dizzy while on the Ship too?

Re: [video]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

Well, I ain't sure, that's why I asked. But I reckon if it's somethin' about the ship, someone else oughta noticed too.

Re: [video]

[hypospraying]

Does anyone have any proper tools to scan the Ship to see what it's putting out? I think if a bunch of you are getting sick, you need to take some precautions, like masks or suits, or something to stop harm to your bodies.

Re: [video]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

I think Kaidan's got a tool that might do that. Should check with him anyway, see if he's feelin' the same thing.

Re: [video]

[hypospraying]

Good call. I'll talk to him later to see if he was able to get any readings. Then I'll be better able to say what precautions you guys up there should take.
