OPEN MINGLE: Search for the Cure
Who: Anyone involved in the cure development effort! Or poisoned people, last-minute volunteers (and voluntolds), nosy people, whoever!
When: D5 onward. Efforts will continue through part of the moon visit.
Where: Medical tent, the laboratory in the Supervisor Grove, the Big Top, and more!
What: Working together to develop an antidote! This is an open mingle log, so feel free to make your own toplevel and tag around! Most of the actual work doesn't need to be played out on-screen, but this is a chance for participating characters to meet, chat, or interact while working!
Warnings: Potential for medical squicky stuff, testing on (undead) animals
After a public call to action over the radios, several people have volunteered their skills and resources for the cause of curing workers afflicted with the Prince's poison.
Over the next several days, they meet at various locations to collaborate on a cure. In the medical tent, affected characters and their symptoms are examined through medical, magical, and spiritual means. A file on a desk there is also used to consolidate information, and volunteers may go there to report their findings or to look over reports of what others have learned.
Lambert has volunteered use of the laboratory he and Sans share in a spare trailer in the Supervisor Grove, so that individuals with knowledge of chemistry, herbs, or potion-making may attempt to concoct helpful solutions. From D7 onward, he’ll move the equipment to his cabin on the moon, where work can continue through the visit.
A portion of the big top has also been roped off and may be used as a working space. Trying out some weird spell or ritual? That might be a good place for it, away from the delicate lab equipment and sick people.
Of course, those are only the main bases, and people may take their work to wherever they find suits them best.
When enough progress has been made, there will be a need for practical testing. Foster has made use of his necromancy to procure them some undead rats (ranging from normal-sized to weirdly gigantic) to test on. For later-stage tests, some brave volunteers may be needed.
For reference, the characters in leadership roles are:
Oversight: Peridot (+ Mari, Herbert)
Magic: Strange, Rita
Medical/Chemistry: Herbert
Herbs/Potions: Lambert
Spiritual: Ginko
Anyone is welcome to join the effort at any point. Completed cures will be administered at a later time, during the vacation on the moon.

"Right. Waiting to grow it the normal way would take too long." Living plants though, that might be a tall order. Lambert drums his claws against the table (and yes, there are chairs Susan can sit in if he'd like, but Lambert will ignore him and the familiar popping up for now).
"I've marked what I have seeds for on that list, but the rest of it we might have to find substitutes for. If you don't recognize the names, I can describe what it looks like and what its properties are."
no subject
"I don't need to know what they look like to grow them."
Knowing the properties could be helpful in case there was one Lauren knew that could be a good replacement, but other than that he doesn't understand why he would need to know that.
no subject
"But if you know what they look like, we can try to find them, right? Maybe there's some growing somewhere!"
no subject
Hell if he knows how different plants work, honestly.
"Can you grow plants from cuttings, too?"
no subject
"Do you have some?" Of course it would also depend on what state the cutting was in.
no subject
"Lauren can do anything with making them grow. He can even talk to them and ask them questions! And one time, he even made friends with a tree!"
no subject
'Hey, can you grow this part of a plant person into a whole plant' isn't probably something to lead off in conversation with, ever.
"It's magic, so I've got no idea if that changes anything," he explains, sliding it across the table for Lauren's inspection. "But this is the only one of it we've got, so having more would help. It's a rose." Specifically: it's a rose that grew off Syr after he used the Blue Rose to run the Prince through. Again, probably not something to share. But there's the lingering traces of magic on it, something that makes it more than just an ordinary plant.
