Mafia 10 - Who Goes There?
Zingoleb:
The Commander only stares back at the man, almost blankly, before pulling his flask out of his pocket and taking a long drink from it, hands shaking less as he replaces it, looking down at the body for a moment before stepping back from it. "Then what are you waiting for? We need to get this body out of here. How does it get one of us? How can we know who's one of these...Things?" He paused for a moment, looking at the biologist for a long moment before asking, "And how do you know that you're not infected?"
Masterpiece:
Pistorious, dumbstuck by Einhorns accusations, stumbles back, into his desk.
"I- wha-... What are you implying?!"
de_la_Nae:
The vehicle operator grunts in satisfaction as she finishes repair on the snowmobile's runner...
...only to look over and notice that one of the hitches on one of the sleds is bent.
One that she could swear she'd checked already.
"..." Maybe it was time to get the Mechanic.
Zingoleb:
The Commander wasn't implying anything, but the man's reaction was suspicious to say the least. He narrows his eyes at him, saying slowly, "I'm only asking a question, Pistorius, to understand the nature of what we face. How would you know?"
Masterpiece:
(OOC: I read that last bit as "how do we know you're not infected", my mistake.)
Pistorious grabs his hair, horrified by the thought.
"It could have already spread!? I -"
he grabs his own arm in search of any trace of the tissue, his face going white in fear, but, being a scientist by nature, quickly calming through logical reasoning
"no, simple exposure to the skin is not enough to take hold. The consumption by the Thing is quite a violent process, even at cellular level, so the process should be visible to the naked eye."
He approaches the massive spectrometer in the middle of the room.
"We could test samples of our own tissue in the spectrometer here. But the darn thing is way too power-hungry - if we use it more than once a day it will overload our generators. We would only be able to test one person a day..."
