[ This is slightly more terrifying than jumping into a pool of core-temp water. ]

He just needs the right encouragement,
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
I'll add you to the rover permissions.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
I'll let you in on a secret: there's always a reason to be concerned. It's managing your expectations that gets tricky.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
Do I look like an answer dispenser. What.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
Embarrassing. So embarrassing. I'm shaking my head.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
What was the question again?
[ why didn't you just eat some dead guy then ]
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
You are not my favorite child, Christina.
The question was whether this stuff came from you.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
Or he ran out of poos to give. I would too with a job like that.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
I give a lot of stuff. You guys are my trashcans. What stuff?
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
You could try flashing him a disco ball, see what happens?
That actually explains a lot...
FROM: farrow.ryan@cdc.org
But a book, specifically. Very old-looking, strange, suspiciously Lovecraftian?
[it is only through much effort that he doesn't launch into explaining that there were fictional reproductions on Earth so one is never really sure and--]
FROM: farrow.ryan@cdc.org
Also a mirror that definitely does not work like a normal one, among a couple other things. Sound like stuff you got rid of?
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
Oh.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
OH
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
So that's where those went.
Where did you even find these??
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
I don't remember, actually. Do they work?
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
Will you be grounded? Does it mean you're in the ground or just told to stay in a room? I get confused sometimes.
That depends on what exactly they're supposed to do.
FROM: farrow.ryan@cdc.org
But they definitely do something, yes.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
Cut to it already. What happened? I wanna know.
I'm not sure exactly what happened, actually, which is why knowing what should happen would help.
FROM: farrow.ryan@cdc.org
Is it supposed to cause holes? Because I'm not dead positive it was the book, given everything going on at the time, but I have a suspicion that that's what it did.
