Knowhere IC

Delta's been crunching numbers and he's been so uptight about it he won't let me think.

We noticed food start to go missing on the 19th at around 11am, that's about 110 hours ago. The tribbles reproduce every 12 hours, with litters of up to ten. If we say it took about 100 tribbles to make that much of a dent in our food supply back on the 19th, and average each tribble having 6 babies each..

If we started with 100 tribbles on the 19th, saying each has 6 babies every 12 hours, at 110 hours.

And assuming a few have died off since then (what's the life expectancy on these things?)..

We should have about 1,007,769,600 of these things on Knowhere as of right now. By tomorrow at this time, 36,279,705,600.




We need to start killing these things. Right now.

[Edit]

Harry? Carlos? Li-Ming? James and Sirius? Am I missing any wizards?

Okay, people.

If you've got food stores somewhere, it's time to speak up. We need to put the food somewhere it's going to be safe and figure out some way to ration it. Or we need to start picking out what sauce tastes best on tribbles, because the market's entirely out of food, the mess is out of food, and the one place I had food squirrel away has been replaced by five dozen tribbles.

Who's got food? I've got hungry kids here

[Edit]

You got any, bring it to the Mess and Carlos, North or I will be there to collect it and find a safe spot for it. We'll also get it rationed and let everyone know where they can go to get their daily portions.

Tribbles have managed to cause multiple power outages in the Med Bay. (There's a sentence I never thought I'd write.) Are there any generators around or someone willing to head to Earth and pick one up for us? We should probably have a couple generators here in case of emergency anyway.

( Alphonse surprised Roy, too. He came asking for help. And that was genuinely the first time either one of the boys had done it.  )

I just found a Coca-Cola truck, like a full eighteen wheeler, apparently stocked with Coke.



Dibs.

I got off-shift about an hour ago and headed to the mess to grab some breakfast for the troops (I'm looking at you, Ed, the bottomless pit that is Al, North, Harry, Tex and Mouse - Yes, Ed, Carlos has been cooking Earth food special just for you) and Carlos said they're crazy low on food?

I guess it was there yesterday.. but there's a lot of it missing today?

Ed, are you sleep-eating, is that why you're never hungry?

Miss Spider doing a little late-night snacking?

Are you squirreling it all away, Sam?

Maybe our favorite zombie is preparing for end-times here?

Seriously, people.. where'd the food go? I had to leave with smaller portions so there'd be enough for everyone else.

Roy?

Sir?

I'm surrounded by giants who put things on stupidly high shelves.

[...]Ugh, fevers are obnoxious. I can't read like this. The words keep blurring together.

My name is George Mason, I'm from Earth in the early 2040s, and I'm new here.

Things that should be known about me:

• I have a dormant infection called Kellis-Amberlee which is highly unpleasant, and results in zombification. Therefore it would be in everybody's best interest. It only spreads via contact with infected tissue or fluids, so talking to me is fine (If you want to do it in person for some reason), but I believe everybody should know.


• I'm not insane for sitting in rooms with no lights on. I have an eye condition.

Things that I would like to know:

• How do I receive access to a pharmacy and (ideally) a medical lab as well as ophthalmology equipment?


• Is there anywhere here to ask for a loan? I have a medical condition that's going to make staying the barracks suck.


• Is there Coca-Cola here?


• Who here has no issue with shooting people in the head if it's necessary?

It's a pleasure to meet you all.

Let's see if I have internally consistent hallucinations.

Starlin's has been busy, must mean the bullshit is at peak here again.

And once again we see me glad it's skipping me, whatever the hell it is this time, and that I didn't have to wake up next to a stranger.

This is ridiculous. I have work to do.

[...]York says you're with Mustang?

[Filtered to Harry, Roy, Ed, Barry and Sara - All individually]

Doing okay over there?

[Filtered to Medical]

I won't be able to fill my shifts as easily for the next little while.. I'm sure Lady Sif will be fine coming to the clinic with me so I can handle things, but I'd hate to drag her there and all around for a twelve hour shift. So I may be a little scarce.. sorry about that.

So did... anyone else wake up chained to a beautiful woman or.. was that just me?

I think it's the passports..

And I'm sorry again, Lady Sif, I swear I didn't mean to.

this is hardly a question i've ever considered asking, but how many wizards are there actually? the reputation that title has hardly seems to apply to other places so i do find myself curious.

i also wish i had caldeum's libraries but i'll have to make do.

Useless observation number 1: Talking machines are stupid.

Excessively useless observation number 2: Bathrooms shouldn't be that difficult to find.

Nevermind the irony of being trapped inside someone else's head. It's a little rude, don'tcha think?
