It's IMDB Flu season!

As always this is an entirely voluntary plot.

This years batch comes by way of Lore's little stunt messing with Evil Chicken's Holographic helper. Being a creature primarily composed of energy there really isn't a way for her to infect the rest of Milliways right? Not when we have comic book science to help! She has managed to infect Jessica Drew who has a high level of bio-electricity. Who would have thought a super power could be a weakness?

The virus has been germinating in its new biological host for a few days now and has mutated to thrive in its new environment. Thus we have two patient zeros, Evil Chicken's holographic servant and Jessica Drew. (See here for other possible infectees, if the Muns so chose.)

Starting with todays EP from Jessica, she is an active carrier and is contagious. Now she is a responsible hero with lots of government level training and she is going to worry about whether this is something from her world that will cause havoc in Milliways or some thing from Milliways which would do the same to her world. In other words, she's going to think about containment but will want to confirm where she should contian herself to. If any infirmary personal would be available to help her determine this, that would be great. If not she can deduce the likelihood of it being contracted in Milliways by herself.

And if a certain Goblin King would like to play with a fevered Sara in the coming weeks, this could be arranged. Sorry for the length of this, I swear I did not mean to ramble. = D

ETA: You do NOT need to thread with an infected pup if you want your pup infected. Just being within Miliways is enough to get infected if you wish.

As the creator of the IMDb flu plot last year, I would like to point out, again, that you do not have to thread with an infected pup in order to catch the virus. Just being in the same room is sufficient if you want to join the plot.

Good point. I'll edit this post once I finish my Jessica EP. = ]

How long is the incubation period? I do want Urq to get infected, it's nice to know that he already might be, but he needs to go to the Discworld with Moist for Hogswatch shenanigans first.

I think its really however you want to play it and I want Moist to get it too.

Well, if you do, he can already be infected and get sick a few days after Urq, after they return from Sto Kerrig?

Incubation period for standard flu is about 1-7 days, IIRC.

I have Guppy around for infirmary input if you want it. I can put him in a clinic post or she's welcome to grab him at Life Support. Once he finds out there's an outbreak, he'll be setting up clinic especially.

[identity profile] justdyedit.livejournal.com 2010-12-15 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll have her wander into the Infirmary in a bit? Cause Life Support technicality was before her entrance right or is there another one today?

Main thing wants to know is if she's bringing something in from her world or if it came from Milliways. She's pretty convinced there won't be any medicine her body will metabolize. Fun super power side effects!

I'll put a clinic post up, then you can come find it if/when you're ready :)

This's going to be fun. For me, not necessarily for Sariel. Sorry, Sariel. *hugs her*
