*You find the desk area empty, with no one present to meet you*

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

*Stops and looks at you momentarily, then takes Luke's folder from the inside of my coat*
Would it ever kill you to respond first?

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

Hm—
*Wanders, looking for a staff area entrance*

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

No.
*Takes the folder without looking at it and tucks it away*

<Snipped quote by Session>

*You find one with relative ease, but it seems devoid of activity as well. A few individuals do round the corner from a far hallway, coming from where signs indicate would be a cafeteria*

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

I trust you to get it done. You know the drill- The mission is yours to handle, and from this point forward, I know nothing.

Mmm...
*Follows the crowd and looks for obvious staff*

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

Of course.
*Turns and slowly steps toward the view port*
You're willing to take a questionable mission on to save these people?

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

I would.

<Snipped quote by Session>

*You find a substantial amount of the building's population collected here, with myself directing others as they hand out food and other goods from an opened metal crate with the IA's name plastered on all of its sides*

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*Approaches with a disarming smile*
Hey there, the name's Lynn. I was sent by the IA to investigate this planet's situation.

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

What's their worth?

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

I would help regardless of their worth.

<Snipped quote by Session>

*Stops what I'm doing to look at you, then steps over and looks you up and down*
We wait all this time for some real help, and we get just one guy?
*Looks over each of your shoulders*
Who brought no equipment of any kind?

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

Let's not be so quick to judge!
*Claps my hands together*
I'm uniquely equipped to investigate this kind of development. But on the occasion that I do need some kind of equipment I don't have with me, I'm certain borrowing a scalpel or two won't be a problem.

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Turns my neck to look at you sideways without fully facing you*

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

I'm serious.

<Snipped quote by Session>

... No, it wouldn't.
*Turns back toward the supplies and continues sorting through goods as I speak*
But you won't find the problem here.

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

Excellent!
*Shoves my calloused hands back into my jacket pockets*
Which is precisely why I came to you. You see, I'd like to examine a few patients from this world to get a reading on control cases. At least one well and at least one sick with a different disease would be a great place to start.

<Snipped quote by Session>

Well, we have plenty of those, since we were never able to receive our shipment from the pools.
*Puts down a small box of fabrics and rests both my hands on the table*
How deep are you expecting to poke into people?
