*the duck backs away*

*wonders y duck is backing away*

in the arena i asked for wonko, acid, and, if he could be found, creachy to be taken to the brig. </>

*hears through the door*

*goes*

*the duck runs off to put them into the brig*
*wakes up*

*a duck returns to inform wiro that wonko is now in the brig*

*notices anthea wake up*

yr in the brig how can yo uspeak here?

[TEXT]

accepted. i got round it when i was in the brig using something like

*Strides in through the south-western wall and becomes corporeal. His traditional pistols have been replaced with dart guns, tradiationally these are used for the rare occasions in which an assain wants to kill but not incapacitate, but there is no way of knowing what is on them. He has not drawn his weapons*
[Indignant] What has happened here? I was told to report to the brig! (And have followed the order to the letter, as always) Is she going to be okay? Where is the medic? Did you get a psychcic to read her mind for clues? What about quarantining the arena to look for clues, I gather there are still people present? (*Either guenuinely doesn't know the answers to these questions or has gotten a lot better at mindshielding since last time*)
These mistakes would not have been made while I was in charge of internal investigations! Why am I under suspicion?

*Forgot to mention his snipers rifle is absent and he has a yellow potion 1/3 remaining*

<...>

Come on now, the psychics have had a field day with reading Acids mind - its about time I got some use out of my ability to become incorporal and walk through walls!

As with everything else he does there is a reason for Acids recent actions. Also if you are following all of the threads he is in you will see that I am following orders and am indeed in the brig

*returns to check paracetamol solution. Notices drip is empty, and replaces it with another bag of saline (hopefully the last one)*

Not that one! Thats not just saline you fool! That was our last bag of Blaine Feed-essence of doritos and one percent snickers in a solution of eightparts vodka. there again I guess he won't need it now.....

Acid you have been sent to the brig as your thoughts have made no secret of your wish to take ovet the guild

Oops...

*removes Doritos/Snickers/vodka solution and checks Anthea's obs again*

Well, it doesn't seem to have done her any harm... Now who's been interfering with my supplies?

*Acid looks like he has a severe headache but is carrying on regardless*
Psychic evidence is no evidence at all. It cannot even be viewed by most people. Look here I need to...
*Steps forwards and hits an invisible wall, desubstatiates takes a step forwards and becomes corporeal*
Gah. This is hard enough as it is. WIRO I have followed your orders and am in the brig but that is not important right now. I care about the welfare of the guild above all else and that Anthea is in this condition is a grave concern. Frankly I find your handeling of the matter rather pathetic and want to see that this is delt with properly.
*Promptly starts ignoring WIRO*
Joe - what is her condition? Is there anything that can be done to help? Locating the orgional toxin? Finding who did it? Getting the machine that goes 'ping'?

Sorry Acid, I can't let you stay in here unless you're a patient. WIRO is here because he was with her when the incident happened, and because I trust him. I'm not saying that I don't trust you, but as the signs say in various places around the Guild, no bedside visitors allowed. Sorry.

Her condition is good, but I'm not concerned about a cause at the moment unless she starts relapsing. I'll keep treating the sypmtoms until she recovers enough to be in here just for observation - that shouldn't be too long now. Then while she's under observation, I'll hand it over to your team to find out exactly what happened.

Oh, and the machine that goes 'ping'? I'm having one sent over from the manufacturers, it'll arrive within the hour.
