I personally think black sword seems like the one to check, seeing as he's volunteered for the commander's position.

*Cesium stumbles into the horrible-smelling room*

Good news, everone! The booze has arrived! Uh, I mean the supplies have arrived. Supplies! mostly booze, though.

What? Y'all think I'm surspicious... er.. suspicious because I wanna get outta this place? No shit! I bet all you assholes are tryin' ta get outta here. With all those guns roamin' around, who knows when some kook could snap and decide to cap someone insteada testin' 'em. I'm clean an' all, but I ain't going near the testin' thing 'cause I don't wanna get shot.

I agree with mtmerrick, anyone wantin' authority is usually someone who we can't trust with no authority. I say we test Black Sword.

If y'all need me tonight, I'm gonna be in the radio hut singing "Ground Control to Major Linds" to some penguins.

to the others, he replies angrily,
"You want me to find a good way to kill the Thing? Well forget any sort of physical force, because we would risk contaminating the station by spilling its blood. I have no idea how it will react to any chemical agent, because I lack the equipment to test them.

"Oh please. Weren't you ever a kid? Didn't you ever have a 'kitchen chemistry' book? We don't need a million dollar lab to do science, we don't need anything but our eyes and our brains." Dr J continues to flay the commander's charred body, looking for any still living tissue he can study.

"One: get an infected sample. Two: immerse it in bleach. Three: see what it does. That's fucking science you pussy. All we need to do is find something that makes it react differently from a control specimen."

I don't think we should give Chief Gunmaster over here the rains, sorry. Humans have killed me of us than Things already.

"Bleach" is the name of a brand of whiskey, right?

"While I trust Method to hold the guns... for now... I don't feel like we should be putting all our eggs in one basket. I'm cool with giving J the commander position."

"Why would you say that? A thing infected the commander. Sure he killed himself, technically, but a thing drove him to it. As for Gareth, I'm not certain what that was yet. Was it a thing murdering one of us or one of our own?"

"And seriously? Do we need to pump Cesium's stomach?"

Lines · « **Reply #207 on:** 30 May 2013, 11:44 »

If he's singing to penguins, probably.

I don't feel comfortable with him having so many guns and wanting to command us, so I want to yes Method.

Hey, the penguins LOVE my singing voice. They only tried to peck my eyes out once!

Method of Madness · « **Reply #209 on:** 30 May 2013, 11:48 »

Whoa, whoa. I should make it clear that I do not want to be the new commander. I just think that we need one. And Linds, I tried to give you one of my two guns, but you didn't want it.

A dozen voices shout and argue about what to do next. Accusations are thrown about by the group, each suspicious of the others and each unsure of who they could trust. With no clear idea as to who should take command of the group, one name does keep cropping up for a far more insidious reason.

Several of the group had decided Black Sword was too suspicious and needed to be dealt with. Unwilling to kill him without justification, a small number rushed at him and held him down as J grabbed a scalpel and cut across his hand.

A nail was heated and placed into Black Sword's blood, fizzling as Black Sword cursed and swore at the others demanding to be released.

Black Sword is human.

ok. we have another verified human. good.

so who's clean, for now? Masterpiece, J, and Black Sword are confirmed, and y'all will just have to take my word i am.

that leaves cesium, henri, anhkthar, keyocera, linds, method, G&W, and nae.

J · « **Reply #213 on:** 30 May 2013, 14:02 »

we were confirmed at the time of testing, no way to know for sure if anyone's still clean. even blacksword may be infected, come morning

Rations? I have an entire kitchen full of raw ingredients. *goes into kitchen and emerges with piping hot personal-sized chicken pot pie*

Since none of y'all are allowed/supposed to eat food prepared for you by someone else...... *takes bite* tough shit for you I guess.

Oooh the cookies are done. BRB.

no, you've been eating rations bars.

and would you rather i'm an ass or, say, snap and shoot someone? If you notice, i'm one of the only ones keeping themselves in (fairly) high spirits, which i think is important is a situation like this.

Sure, ok. As I said, I'm clean. If I can prove that, then maybe we can all get along a bit better, alright?

TheEvilDog · « **Reply #224 on:** 31 May 2013, 12:59 »

The quiet of the night is suddenly broken by the staccato of gunfire in the barracks.

As the group searched for the source of the gunfire, they soon find it in J's chamber. What they find is a gruesome sight. J's body was sprawled across his bed, his body riddled with bullets. It would seem someone sneaked into J's room during the night and shot him repeatedly. This was an execution, pure and simple.

The murder weapon lay nearby, a rifle, the exact same one that Major Method had kept by his side the last few days.

There would be answers demanded today.

Day 5 Begins

(There is a 50% likelihood that someone might be killed during the test)

mtmerrick · « **Reply #225 on:** 31 May 2013, 13:07 »

Well shit.

Though leaving the murder weapon sitting there seems fishy..... I'm not ready to lynch anyone just yet. >_>

Method of Madness · « **Reply #226 on:** 31 May 2013, 13:13 »

I don't understand...how did the murderer get my gun? I think the only thing I can do this time is to demand that I, Major Method O. Madness, be tested today. I didn't kill J, but I let someone take my gun. I don't know who it was, but by not securing my weapon, I am partly responsible for J's murder.

Game and Watch Forever · « **Reply #227 on:** 31 May 2013, 13:40 »

Game and Watch immediately left the room and stood out in the doorway. Three good men were gone.

He stuck his head back into the room, trying to keep the body out of his line of vision. "Method, I have to ask... are you WORTH testing? Having you test negative for Thing blood will not help us. The only people truly worth testing that I'm aware of are the infected. So if you think we won't benefit from it, you should allow others to be the ones to point fingers at you. Not yourself."

Method of Madness · « **Reply #228 on:** 31 May 2013, 13:48 »

You're right. But the test itself isn't without risks. And I wouldn't feel right making anyone else do that. Someone used my gun to kill J. I shouldn't have let that happen, but somehow it did. How else can I redeem myself for that?

mtmerrick · « **Reply #229 on:** 31 May 2013, 14:07 »

>_>hmmmmm

no, i don't think he did it. it seems like a bad setup.

Masterpiece · « **Reply #230 on:** 31 May 2013, 14:08 »

I vote to test Dr. Henri Bemis.

mtmerrick · « **Reply #231 on:** 31 May 2013, 14:15 »

*looks at the cookie on the floor, glares at mtmerrick, shakes her head, and walks away*

*looks at J's corpse, then rubs her eyes with the palms of her hands* Ugh, this is really starting to get to me. We've lost our dog handler and all of our animals, our commander, and now our doctor. Whoever is doing this is really trying to crush us. *lowers her hands, looking sad and worn out* There's a lot going though my head right now, but I am going to agree to test Henri Bemis. I've been a little suspicious of her since the debacle in the lab.

de_la_Nae · « **Reply #233 on:** 31 May 2013, 20:10 »

The Antarctic wind blows into the room as de la Nae re-enters the building. For the last half hour she'd been standing out there, just...standing. She hasn't said anything or done much of anything for the last several hours, besides chewing slowly on a protein bar and staring at the floor.

She trudges slowly over, not bothering to even shake the snow off her boots. Finally she looks up at GaWF...then snarls as she tries to shove him to the ground!

henri bemis · « **Reply #234 on:** 31 May 2013, 20:18 »

"What the hell are you doing?!" Dr. Bemis jumps back as de la Nae, seemingly sane, if not in shock, only moments ago, launches herself toward the mechanic, snarling wildly.

Wide-eyed, she turns to the others as she tries to pull her off GAWF, and says "Uh, guys, I'm happy to be tested, no objections. But I think we've got a bigger problem right now! A little help?!"

de_la_Nae · « **Reply #235 on:** 31 May 2013, 20:22 »

She struggles for a long moment, shrieking incoherently, before going limp and breaking out in a sobbing fit.

mtmerrick · « **Reply #236 on:** 31 May 2013, 21:24 »

*tries to determine if Nae has been infected or has simply suffered a mental break*

cesium133 · « **Reply #237 on:** 31 May 2013, 21:30 »

Ugh. How much booze did I drink yesterday? ALL of it!? Oh geez. I'll be in the radio hut, calling McMurdo Base for more supplies.

Huh? Oh, right, the testing. Seems like people want to test henri bemis, so let's go with that.

henri bemis · « **Reply #238 on:** 31 May 2013, 21:53 »

As de la Nae releases her grip on GAWF, henri falls with her as she sobs. Then, relatively confident that Nae is no longer a danger, rolls up her sleeve and taps the inside of her elbow, holding it out for a blood sample.

"Honestly, and I can't explain why - it's just a feeling - I'd test Linds. But I have no objections if you want to test me, first."

Game and Watch Forever · « **Reply #239 on:** 31 May 2013, 22:49 »

"What the fuck, get off me you crazy--"

Game and Watch struggled until he felt de fall back. Unable to find the balance and strength needed to stand, he scrambled backward until he found himself pressed against a wall. "What... the hell... was that? Are we seriously going to test henri when people around here are doing things like THAT?!"

His composure was out the window. "You're all fucking nuts! We're looking for someone who snapped and is killing our own. Gareth died by wrench that was probably taken from me and J died by a gun stolen from Method. It's obviously de la Nae! Are you fucks seriously too dumb to see it?"

henri bemis · « **Reply #240 on:** 31 May 2013, 23:08 »

"de la Nae is pretty obviously either infected, or she's lost it, so I don't see much reason to waste a test on her." Dr. Bemis stays close to her, ready to grab her if she lashes out again, while fumbling around for some kind of restraint, coming up empty. Her shoelaces probably wouldn't do the job. She tries to get Nae's attention, asking repeatedly "Do you know where you are? What happened? Why did you attack?" While she waits for a response, she turns back to the group.

"Game and Watch, we were the two who had the most direct contact with her. If she is infected, the test should probably be on one of us, though I still assure you all I am not infected. I know you can't just take my word for it, though. If you pick me, I wont resist."

de_la_Nae · « **Reply #241 on:** 31 May 2013, 23:39 »

The sobbing fit quiets down, though the woman still shudders occasionally. From behind the gloved hands she's holding tightly against her face, the over-stressed vehicle steward's voice can be heard. "You...you're too...you're too GOOD at being us to not get it........we're just like you we're just like you WE'RE JUST LIKE YOU!" she screams, her hands falling to her sides to reveal what might be charitably called a 'hot mess' of a crying face. "but you don't, you don't even care..."

She lays back on the floor, exhausted. Her voice goes sing-songy and she carelessly flings her arm about to gesture at people in turn. "A wrench, a pick, a lab, a leader, a gun, a healer, a crumb, a crumb, a crumb..."
"..."
"It thinks, but it doesn't care. And that's why we'll all have to burn. But it should be GaWF, Merrick, or Method first."

mtmerrick · « **Reply #242 on:** 31 May 2013, 23:47 »

I retract my vote for Henri and vote to test Nae.

And mtmerrick, there is no fucking reason to shoot her before we're sure she's infected. If she wasn't having a breakdown, I'd vote to test you, because I trust you less than thin ice.

And Henri, I don't know why you don't trust me right now, but I don't blame you. Hell I don't trust you either, but I think there is a big glaring problem in the room right now that should probably be addressed first.

henri bemis · « **Reply #244 on:** 01 Jun 2013, 06:04 »

OOC - It's nothing specific, Linds. I've just watched The Waters of Mars often enough to know that an infected pilot is a bad thing :p.

"I think it's safe to say there's something definitely wrong with de la Nae, but I still think we should put her in isolation for now and use the test on someone else. If we can isolate her, and she's infected, we'll know soon enough, and maybe we can study her." She sees the look mtmerrick gives to Method, then shakes her head. "Not yet. No."

"Right now, our priority should be figuring out who infected her."

"I also think it's about time we consider disabling all transportation, and... more extreme measures, if necessary. With most of the command gone, will we even be able to trigger the self destruct?"

Lines · « **Reply #245 on:** 01 Jun 2013, 08:01 »

OOC - Crazy pilots of any kind are always a bad thing!

Method may not be in command, but he is a soldier, and a few of us have had training of some kind, so I'm sure we can figure it out together. And if you want transport dismantled, I am not really opposed. I've already removed the GPS from the helicopter, I can go ahead and remove some other key parts. I'm sure GaWF can do something to the vehicles and we've kind of solved our problem with the dog sleds already...

Method of Madness · « **Reply #246 on:** 01 Jun 2013, 08:06 »

I don't have much technical training, but that'll only be an issue if we have to fix something. Dismantling, on the other hand, shouldn't be a problem, as long as we don't expect to be able to put it back together after.

Lines · « **Reply #247 on:** 01 Jun 2013, 08:08 »

I guess the question is if we want to be able to put them back together...

Method of Madness · « **Reply #248 on:** 01 Jun 2013, 08:14 »

That's what I'm counting on, but I want to make sure it's absolutely necessary before we put that plan in motion.

TheEvilDog · « **Reply #249 on:** 01 Jun 2013, 13:33 »

Arguments and accusations flew, each person claiming to be innocent and uninfected.

Regardless though, one name began to emerge from the accusations, the geologist Henri Bemis.

Calmly taking the accusations in her stride, Henri offered to take a blood test to prove her innocence.

The test would never come as ChaoSera screamed, the stress of the deaths and the possibility of alien infection, pushed Major Method to the ground and took his handgun and fired point-blank at Henri, emptying the clip. Henri was dead before she hit the floor.

A stunned realisation came over the group as the truth became apparent. Henri Bemis was human.

ChaoSera was disarmed and taken away from the scene as tears began to well among members of the group as they left the gruesome scene.
