CONGRATULATIONS YOU ARE THROUGH TO RUDDIGER. PLEASE LEAVE FOOD AT THE END OF THE BEEP. MESSAGES CANNOT BE GUARANTEED DELIVERY IF FOOD IS NOT PROVIDED. [VIDEO | AUDIO | TEXT]
[He's hiding in his lab, trying to science his way out of this problem like he does everything else. The corruption sure isn't getting any better, and the added stress this change has given him is definitely not helping matters.]
I know. I don't... I think he caught something from the Omni? So try not to go on it.
[He looks up from whatever chemicals he's mixing, worry etched on his face.]
I'm trying to find some sort of cure, but I honestly can't tell what he's got to even start finding a way to fix it.
Hmm. He mentioned Karkat, whoever that is, and something he put on the network. He was normal before then.
[He rubs the back of his neck, frowning.]
It's definitely magic. I'm a little hesitant to check the Omni's themselves in case I catch...whatever is going on there. And then I won't be able to help him at all.
[As much as a part of his brain is making him want to snap at her for reasons he can't understand, he fights it. As much as he can. He offers a strained smile. ]
I need to know if anyone else is dealing with this too. Do...do you think you could find out? I can try and work on a cure, but I really do need to know how widespread this is.
[Varian knows only too well that having a purpose makes a disaster easier to navigate. Something else to focus on other than the trauma or the feeling of helplessness. He offers her a smile.]
Yeah, I'll be okay. I'm...pretty used to working alone. I can get a head start on this and hopefully figure out how to help people. I...I doubt it's just Fern that's affected.

[ someone's magic that was affecting him. not the shard of a prince's heart, but . . . close enough? ]

[ it makes sense. she glances at him, thoughtful. ]
What kind of help do you need?
no subject
I need to know if anyone else is dealing with this too. Do...do you think you could find out? I can try and work on a cure, but I really do need to know how widespread this is.
no subject
[ with a purpose, it'll get easier now to make sense of it all instead of just guessing. ]
Are you sure you'll be okay on your own?
no subject
Yeah, I'll be okay. I'm...pretty used to working alone. I can get a head start on this and hopefully figure out how to help people. I...I doubt it's just Fern that's affected.
no subject
Okay. But if you need more help, will you ask for it?
no subject
I will don't worry. I'll holler as soon as I need anything.
[And then he didn't. ]
no subject
Then I'll ask around. About the weird stuff.
no subject
Thanks, Ahiru. I really appreciate the help.
