Week 3.

[trustfellowship]

WEEK 3 Grace and Doug are dead. It seems that there isn't anything more to do but mourn your losses and try to move forward. The Transmitter's rules still hang in every room, a reminder of the only means of escaping this place. But surely no one else will give into them, right? Saturday is given to regrouping and rest; the static blares out early on Sunday, but at least there are no bodies to find today - it seems you're safe for now. The night before wasn't necessarily a peaceful one, however; you'll probably feel a bit groggy when you wake up, and it seems you've regained something that you didn't realize you'd lost... Once again, however, it seems your efforts won't go unrewarded; another set of corridors have opened up, much in the same fashion as the other new area did last week. With them come new rooms to explore; maybe some of them will be to your liking. Or perhaps it's better to say that hopefully some of them will; after all, if the Transmitter gets her way, you may be here for a very, very long time. PATIENTS REMAINING: 26

SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
[OOC: Welcome to week three of Trustfell! Feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget to save those threads for coins and the activity check!

If you'd like to get in contact with the Transmitter, you can do so through text or the phone in your room!]

We have a heavy focus on DNA repair - progeria was of a particular interest to one of our founders, but we've made significant progress in the treatment of several autoimmune disorders and the like.

[arebetter]

Huh. Cool. I walked in here and between the outfit and the crossbow I sort of assumed one of those uh... private army type things.

[enhancements]

[...Oh my god.]

Well, we do employ one of those, though I've never served with them.

[arebetter]

[ aw and here she thought she wasnt the only Star in the conversation- ]

That makes sense. For... transportation and stuff?

[enhancements]

Transportation and security. Our research is highly valuable, and in the wrong hands it could prove intensely and immediately catastrophic.

[arebetter]

Right. Wait... alright, I'm going to sound stupid, but I can't think of a way to parse that other than the start of 28 Days Later, what would people do with medicine research?

[enhancements]

[Oh, hey, he gets that reference.]

...One would be more likely to create massive amounts of cancer in the general population than some sort of rage disease, if we're talking a pure outbreak.

Just in general, however, no one precisely likes the idea of freely handing out the means to rewrite and alter the genes of any species they choose with that much precision.

But if that idea seems a bit too unlikely...again, tremendous amounts of cancer.

[arebetter]

No, yeah, that... that makes sense. Cancer is pretty bad, in general. Messing with genes for things besides sicknesses is usually pretty bad news.

[enhancements]

There are several ways to weaponize that sort of research as well - it's a massive biohazard waiting to happen, basically.

[arebetter]

Yeesh, yeah, that's enough to justify the private army thing.

[enhancements]

We thought so as well.

[He shrugs a bit, though.]

Perhaps it's unfortunate that it's necessary, but we've had to utilize them more times than we'd like to recall.

[arebetter]

Hey, we have security when we're at concerts, you guys have... bigger security, because of the risk of lots of cancer. I get it.

[enhancements]

Fair enough.

How were those concerts of yours going, last you remember?

[arebetter]

Just remembered a big comeback show last night, actually. Which I apparently didn't question at the time, but now have several questions for Jem and the Holograms about, because I think I saved the world from music zombies.

[enhancements]

You... What?

[You saved the world.

You.]

[arebetter]

[ Rude??? ]

Look, I don't know the science, but I was told "hey this music is brainwashing everyone who hears it and it's our fault, please help us, Pizzazz," and before I knew it I was planning a concert to attempt to rock so hard the people returned to their senses.

[enhancements]

...You know, I doubt half of the things people describe are based in science in the first place, but at the very least it sounds like a good time.

[arebetter]

It was a good show, even if half of it was Holograms music. But I'm definitely going to have to ask the Holograms what the hell that was about if I see them again.
