I'll be getting out a cute post today

@DeadDrop

Sorry, I can't help myself.

Here's something that didn't occur to me before. @Aeolian's description of the 'new' Stigma strain and what it did to the people in the PRS Research Wing is essentially zombification, if I'm understanding it right.

Would a sort of zombie apocalypse on top of the already existing plot be something for us? It can be as extreme or subtle as we want, but I'm thinking it can add another layer of creativity.

If anyone has thoughts about this, do share. I don't feel the need to tag everyone for this, but it's worth thinking about.

[Aeolian]

@Prisk

Oh! I'm sorry. I honestly didn't realize I was bringing in zombification into the plot. I genuinely thought that's what happens to humans when they first get infected with the stigma, like that plant in real life that turns ants into zombie-ants. lol

We can totally retcon the zombification part of my post if it isn't befitting for the plot.

@Prisk

I'm good with whatever. Whatever you think would service the story.

@Aeolian

No-no, I like the idea! The original infection expresses itself with pretty intense symptoms, I think I mention it in one of the lore images, but there is no 'rage' factor or anything like the zombie-ants. BUT, this 'new' strain should have that. It could be that anyone who is infected by the 'new' strain will experience this process, whereas all people don't turn into monsters after the original infection.

This adds another layer of threat to the whole situation. It could even be related to Ben's Archon form. Like, he is a super spreader of this new Stigma strain, but doesn't show symptoms himself.

[Aeolian]

@Prisk

That's a relief that you like it. I think your ideas on how it integrates into the story are wonderful, like it being a "new" strain and being related to Ben's archon form.

As Exit said, I'm down with whatever you feel best serves the plot and current story. :)

[DeadDrop]

Google HBOs the Strain

That strain, we need that.

[Aeolian]

@Prisk

Just read your post.

You guys can open the door manually however you want. Whether it be with the help of Oerba(so feel free to use her), or through your own inventive mechanisms. Or Errikos can use his power to open it again as well.

I'm fine with whatever. Isolde would just say that the room has been locked down due to IDP (Internal Danger Protocol) or something like that lol Plus Errikos' power is fortifying that I think.

Anyways, however yall want to play it out I'm cool with. :)

[CaliforniaState]

Oh this is great! Eunji’s research is in zombie fungi

[DeadDrop]

Atom bomb it now.

[CaliforniaState]

Atom bomb it now.

@DeadDrop

All you top gun wannabees are the same.

[DeadDrop]

Kaboom~

[Krash]

Sorry, caught something and feel like crap so I'll be short. I never intended that Errikos locked them, jus that he closed them. If anyone wants to open them/have Errikos open them that's fine since I feel wasteful making a short post for that. Also Zombie fungus sounds fun.

[Mirandae]

@Krash
Oh my, sorry to hear that! Get well soon. Drink lots of water, rest, and you'll be back on top in no time!

@Salsa Verde@DeadDrop
14 days since the last ic-post coming up, babes. Try to get something in soon. Mommy will be very happy.

[CaliforniaState]

@Prisk

Yes mommy dearest (will kms promptly after this)
