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.

Rita's definitely giving him a weird look. The look continues even after she locates a metal basin and passes it to him along with the knife.
Yeah, no, she can't let that go without asking. "Your arm was eaten? What the hell happened?"
no subject
....So. A Carnival member ate his arm....while he wasn't a big rampaging animal.
Okay.
"All things considered, he restrained himself quite well! I, the man Gongenzaka, am surprised he did not attempt more than this at the time! As it is, he has...not been taking his actions well." He tore off his own arm. So that happened.
He takes the bin, moving toward a small table or similar so he can set it down and rest his paw above it, before carefully getting to work with the knife. He wasn't kidding about being 'steady', at least, so this probably won't end in horror.
no subject
"One of our people did that?" That's really messed up. "Uh, shouldn't you be more bothered by that, or something?"
'i'll show you im sorry gon -rips off own arm-' 'uh' - Basically What Happened???
"....Indeed... ...If they had been in a clear state, perhaps I would have. ....But I, the man Gongenzaka, have been in a similar state of mind before; and yet while more in control than he, caused far greater damage," he admits, his ears folding back.
"Zangetsu certainly lacks the excuse of 'vampirism' that was present for myself at that time, but he has, himself, an 'excuse' all the same. More than that however... ...He has shown his remorse in perhaps a way even the Ringmaster cannot argue..!" he coughs, looking distinctly uncomfortable as he says that.
He continues trimming, not yet clarifying what that even means.
no subject
"Showed his remorse how?" she reluctantly asks. Rita's not sure she wants to know, but her curiosity gets the best of her.
no subject
Regardless. Gongenzaka grimaces. "..................he...tore off his arm. ....Zangetsu is able to regenerate, so...he's decided not to grow it back until I, the man Gongenzaka, have replaced mine."
Clip- Half way through the claws now.
no subject
"What the hell is wrong with him!? Or any of you, for that matter!?" Yep, she's lumping Gongenzaka in there again. "That's just..." But raising her voice seems to have hurt her throat, and as her voice grows hoarse, Rita stops to swallow and rub at her bruised neck with her fingers.
no subject
Instead however he pauses in his work, straightening and looking down to Rita with a leveled frown. "And what is meant by that, then..?! 'Any of us'? Who is 'Us' for that matter, with whatever standard you now refer to with regard to unwilling acts?"
