Mission: Bad Science Saves the Day
Date & Time: Mid-Day, 3310 | Present Day June 14th-16th
Location: Andersfeld, in the (far former) state of Alaska. (Also known at one time as Anchorage, Alaska.) | Back in Exsilium, those manning the Transport Pads, or working on developing the antibiotics and administering them to the ill throughout the city. Yet others will need to hop-scotch through time gathering sufficient supplies to save lives.
Characters: Volunteers to alter medical research, people working on antiobiotic cures, people distributing appropriate cures, and those who are doing minor missions into the past to retrieve adequate supplies to treat the sick in the present.
Summary: Transports are asked to help save tens of thousands of lives, first by traveling two years into the past and altering scientific research. Second, by helping with the manufacture and development of antibiotics or other cures, once the mission is complete. Third, by distributing the cure to the affected parties. Fourth, by going on pointed supply missions solo, or with up to two other people, in order to get enough supplies to save people in the present.
Whatever your character decides to do, the weight of saving lives is on their shoulders, unasked, and perhaps unwelcome. What will they do when faced with this decision?
Warnings: Illness. Freezing cold. Possible death. Drunken scientists.
In Andersfeld, the snow falls in thick, fat flakes, winds blowing in gusts up to 60 kph. Everyone is bundled up against the weather. Spirits are generally low, if not outright alcoholic. Safety lines and lights guide those brave enough to venture outdoors from building to building.
For the Transports with a six hour window to alter a future that will kill over a hundred thousand people in three weeks, it's a dangerous and necessary bravery.
In Exsilium, the success of the mission to Andersfeld is felt as soon as scientists notice the virus responding to antibiotic treatments. It becomes a race to finding the most effective means of combating the now bacterial infection, and of mass producing any working cure for distribution.
Some help with the production.
Others hurry to cart the supply out to the places hit most heavily. Yet others work directly with administering the antibiotics, in most cases, via an IV line. Those less heavily affected will be granted ridiculously large antibiotic pills, needing to be coaxed down spasming throats.
Those who need action, or who are no good with the sick, are asked to make countless small trips through time to secure the supplies needed to produce enough of the cure to save the tens of thousands who are ill but not yet deceased.
And for those too ill to assist, now is the time to rest, heal, and get better. In a world like this, one never knows what surprise might next lie in wait. The Transports and the Initiative have thwarted total disaster for now.
Mostly.

...And it works. They're in. Network connection is go. "Holy shit. It worked."
no subject
"It worked? How? Are you sure?"
no subject
no subject
"How did you do that?"
He's probably going to have to explain all of this to the Initiative later, after all. Might as well make an effort to try and understand, even if he fails at it.

"You honestly don't know...?"

That goes without saying, but. It still needs to be said. Because honestly, he has no idea what else to say in this bizarre situation, and he's starting to wonder if maybe he's hallucinated this entire conversation. As long as it's working, he doesn't really mind a fever twisting his memories around, but.
*came to WTF autocorrect
Stanley explains, guessing just from this dude's appearance and speech that he's probably not from around here. A few more minutes of clicking and tapping and boom! They're finished here. Stan stretches and stands up, grabbing the drive back for Gilbert.
"All set. C'mon, let's get the hell out of here. This suit is killing me."
you have to be smarter than autocorrect or else
All of that is well and good, he can get to the other half of his job now, but just to be sure. He takes the drive back and holds it in his gloved hand, staring down at it like it's about to jump up and eat his face or something.
"How do we know it worked?"
>| well I can't be cuntier.
Because if there's more and the dude is only now telling him that's pretty annoying.
no subject
"Yeah, that's right. Thanks for your help..."
He trails off a bit at the end as he realizes he never did ask the guy for his name.
no subject
The guy says, both missing the cue and apparently a mission objective. Enjoy that one, Gil.
no subject
Here, he'll make it simple.
no subject
Hey, look. It worked. He even adds a lazy wave to the end, almost like a real introduction.
no subject
"At any rate, thanks for your help. I don't think I would have ever figured that out."
no subject
Isn't honesty so refreshing?
no subject
You don't have to rub it in!!
"Yeah..."
no subject
no subject
"If that's all you were told to do, you should go," he says. "I still have something else to take care of."
no subject
no subject
Things on a list, most of which are the same type of thing as the computer; things that he doesn't understand. But he's not going to ask Stanley for any more help than he's already given.
He clears his throat again and starts for the door.
"Thanks for your help."
