Day 308 | Open Video [PEARLS PSA]
Hey. [Clearing his throat a little. He doesn't speak to everyone at once like this very often. But he's been working with Deanna to track this thing and now she's gone and he just needs to get the information out there even if he doesn't have all the details.] We have a situation. I've been talking to people and keeping an eye out and some of us are or have been affected by the pearls that were brought in from sector 6. [You know, by the green girl.]

I'm not sure exactly how they work, but they're amplifying or creating feelings in people. It could be anger or nothingness. [Those were a couple he was pretty certain about from Jack, Mal, and Korra.] But it could be more than that. It could be any emotion. [As far as he knows.]

If you have a pearl you need to get rid of it. [Driving this point home.]

If someone you know has a pearl don't touch it. It could transfer over to you. Just get them to...[yes, what? Put it in the trash] maybe just take them back to Sector 6 or call me and we'll talk about it. just don't keep it.

	Yeah, she has a green one. [He could mention that he has a pearl too, but he isn't quite sure he's ready to give it up yet despite the potential problems for some reason.] It's gotten to the point where we've talked about using an empty apartment to stash her stuff because we're running out of room.

	[Green. He is jotting that down along with the list of symptoms he gave.] Have you tried getting her to give any of it up? How does she react? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Zatanna tried when she was still here. It...didn't go all that well from what I heard. [Which is why he's tried to steer clear of the subject.] But she'll be back to normal if someone gets her to ditch the pearl, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

As far as we can tell [Him and Deanna when she was still around and from reports of people who gave it up] once it's gone you go back to whatever your normal is.

But be careful. It sounds like people with the pearls have a hard time getting rid of them and if you get too close you might fall under it's influence too.

It sounds like hers might be greed? [He's wondering if the colors are all that leading. Anger was red which kind of makes sense too.]

	Greed would make sense. [There's some visible hesitation on his part before he asks this next question.] Has, um, anyone mentioned the pearls making them paranoid? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Video tallerthanthou 2015-02-02 04:48 am UTC (link)
	Not yet. [He glances at his notes, but he and Deanna didn't find a lot. There are a lot of distractions in this prison that make it hard to stay on track with things that aren't aggressively in your face. When he glances back up at Wally he looks curious.] Why do you ask? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Video fastonhisfeet 2015-02-02 06:43 pm UTC (link)
	No reason, really. I just wanted to make sure nobody else has been freaking out. [Wait, did he just...?] Uh, not that anyone has been freaking out. Especially not me. Nope, no freaking out here. [There is absolutely nothing suspicious going on with him. Nothing at all.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Sam doesn't really know Wally outside of both being on the force, but he's willing to bed this behavior is odd based on it being visibly odd.] Is it at all possible that you might have a pearl? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Video fastonhisfeet 2015-02-02 11:17 pm UTC (link)
	[He gives Sam a guarded look.] ...Maybe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Video tallerthanthou 2015-02-02 11:58 pm UTC (link)
	[He'll take that as a firm yes.] Listen, I've heard it's hard to part with them, but it's going to be better to get rid of it. You've got to trust me. [Even if some of this is his assumptions based on everything being terrible and ending in death at home.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Since there's no use in hiding it anymore, he pulls a yellow pearl out of his pocket and holds it up for Sam to see.]

It's not that I don't trust you.

[He's known that something had been affecting him since he freaked out on Zatanna a few weeks ago. Still, the thought of giving up his pearl isn't an appealing one.]

But are you absolutely sure the pearls are the problem?

	[He takes a breath. A lot of this is still guess work.] They are definitely at the center of this. Have you been feeling differently? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Video fastonhisfeet 2015-02-04 04:41 am UTC (link)
	It's not so much as feeling different as it is knowing I've been acting strange. [And the only reason he knows is because someone pointed it out to him.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No. She was just helping me train and I sort of...lost it for a moment. [He has no problem going toe-to-toe with the likes of Vandal Savage, but a maze with moving walls was more than he could bear.] That's when I started to think something was going on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Video fastonhisfeet 2015-02-08 06:29 pm UTC (link)
	Well... you think I should ditch it, right? [That doesn't mean it's what he's going to do, though.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Video tallerthanthou 2015-02-08 10:45 pm UTC (link)
	It's what I would do. Or what I'd want help doing. (Reply to this) (Parent)
