Sixth Symptom [Event//Level 1 and rising, possibly up to 3]
[Housepost//Action//If I gave you the truth would it keep you alive?]
[You might notice considerably more mumbling from the doctor this morning - normally, he keeps his theories and work quietly written down in notepads, but today? Even as he scribes them into their pages, he's murmuring them aloud, pacing the floor. This will continue after he returns from work, as well, if someone visits - though those will be peppered with him scribbling formulae and all manner of odd notations while regarding some unseen subject.]
[1.//Action//Around Town//No there's nothing you say that can salvage the lie]
[The drone children are staying home from school today, which means - naturally - that Nusakan would really rather stay away from said house. It isn't that they're annoying, even, but they are terribly boring. With no aspirations and nothing but artificial fears, even tormenting them feels flat, useless.
Perhaps those of you who know him have questions - now would certainly be the time to ask them, if you've figured out what the strange air is doing. Perhaps you don't, and simply see the abnormal doctor as someone to chat with. Hopefully, in either situation, you don't mind facing the full force of his obsessions.]
[2.//Phone//Late Afternoon//The deception you've shown is your own parasite]
[There's an odd tone to the doctor's voice. Someone might recognize it as something akin to irritation mixed with interest.]
My, my. So it seems that the town is bordering on relentless, isn't it? All this about Communists, and then this mystery scent that I haven't defined yet. Do you have any further information yet?
