Ring ring...

Hello, it's me again~

How's business, pussycat?

Going very well, thank you for asking. That snafu with the production plant under the church put a bit of a bottleneck on the market, but it's not like that's a bad thing. I've already made plenty from it, so no fur off my back. All the chaos in the city is very entertaining.

Ha ha ha, all the better since everyone's pointing fingers at the school now anyway.

I hope you're just as happy on your end.

It is, isn't it.

Yes, how are they going?

That's still a problem? Ugh. What haven't you tried yet?

What if... what about that thing I found under the school?

Yes, that substance it was leaking. I've never seen anything like it before, let alone from a trophy. You still have the samples, don't you?

Yeah.

Oh good.

That sounds promising already~

Tell you what, since you've been working so hard on this, why not give me the prototypes and let me test them out? I have a few targets in mind.



It's Thursday; Graduation/Prom is still a few weeks off but finals are swiftly approaching the students of Smash Academy. Seth has been a busy bee, if not with unscrupulous activities preparing for said finals, then he has been dutifully making Host Club beautiful. More accurately, him and Voile have worked especially hard on this one to help raise money for those suffering from the drug riots and related violence.

Much like any other Host Club session, AE13 has been transformed into something bright, cheery, and very spring-like. Spring has definitely sprung all over the tables and flowery decor here. Food seems to especially be in surplus this session, with tables lining the borders of the room in a sort of buffet style. It's not just cookies, pastries, fruits, or snacks, but there is an entire table dedicated to those with a sweet tooth. (Most are actually not drugged but if you want to have shenanigans, then by all means go for it.) There are still some items exclusive to a menu that necessitate the need for a host/server. Alternatively, you could tell your host to go get stuff at the buffet for you, that is just as practical.

There's surely something here for everyone... and if not, he'll make it happen. As in, he'll make the servers make it happen.


To get this Host Club kicked off, Seth stands, in all his grandiose attire, and clinks a glass with his fork. "If I could have everyone's attention for a moment, please?" Once he has it, he clears his throat.

"First of all, I'd like to welcome you all to this Host Club. Voile and I worked especially hard on it, so thank you for coming. You should know you're not only supporting our efforts but all generous donations and proceedings will go directly to victims afflicted by these recent strings of cruel violence."

"Did you know it was National Nurse's Week last week? I thought it would only be appropriate then to have this Host Club's theme be that of healing--Healing and appreciation for those who work hard to help others, who don't get enough appreciation for their efforts."

"Like poor Rhys! I swear he'd work himself ragged if he gave himself the chance. He needs our love and support, and, if I may direct your attention to our beautiful, charming hostess Voile," Seth waves his hand in the air and points at her, where a well-choreographed spotlight follows up onto the mini-stage erected in the room. "--really, everyone look, she is absolutely stunning in that dress, give her a big round of applause--She will tell you exactly how you can offer a healing hand."


HOST CLUB:
▷ If you want your character to BE SERVED, just sit them down at any table and start making orders.
▷ If you want your character to SERVE, as in you want to put your character in an embarrassing outfit and serve the people sitting at the tables, go right ahead. There are no OOC sign-ups. This session's Host Club's outfit theme is SEXY NURSE. Take your pick of outfit from conservative and modern to increasingly provocative. If you're a server and can't think of any willing/legit reasons why on earth they would be here in a sexy nurse outfit you can assume Seth more or less forced/tricked/convinced/blackmailed your poor unfortunate character into the act.
▷ ONCE YOU PICK server OR served, your character must to stick with it until this Host Club meeting is done, that is the only rule. No escaping, no sneaking out. Seth will CATCH YOU and make you CLEAN DISHES with a TOOTHBRUSH.

HOST CLUB CONTEST:
▶ If you remember how last year's Student/Faculty Auctions went and how the Pokemon Contests work, this may feel familiar. Your character needs to pay a measly $5 entry fee (which will be a charitable donation to help those involved in drug riot incidents) and then they can enter in any of the contest categories; Coolness, Beauty, Cuteness, Intelligence, and Strength. PERFORM your act of [insert category here] and impress everyone! Get creative, use your Smashing Skills and wow the crowd. If you damage the stage or make a mess, Connor and Flint will probably not be happy with you.
▶ As an audience member, you cast your vote by typing a +1 into your subject title (not unlike the auctions with the dollar amounts). That's it! You can vote as many times as you like, just not for multiple times for the same person in the same category (so no +2's or +3's or +9000's). You can, however, vote for the same person once in each category if they are competing in more than one. You can cast a vote for more than one person per category.
▶ Votes will be tallied up OOCly Thursday or Friday, and we will start a new thread to announce the winner.

Connor stared at the pops as they talked. He understood nothing of what Gordon said. But...Phoenix.

He made sure they both heard them.

"So what do you propose we do? Time is not on our side. This is a worsening situation."

He went through the pops with his hands. Suddenly, he felt desperate for some answers.

"Gordon. If we knew which to examine, could you try to test it? If anything, if we know one of them here was drugged...We just need to know they were here. Then perhaps we could figure out who the supplier was based on who seems suspicious."

Phoenix wasn't a science-y person so he could only get the gist of what Gordon said. But even so, what he understood was that it was some sort of "test," something that could take a while.

"Well... Dr. Freeman, wouldn't that take a while? I mean, these sorts of tests can take hours at the very, very least... More like weeks."

Obviously he'd prefer to just test the foods out than have one of them ingest it, but he wasn't sure what to do.

"I know spectroscopy. Hell, it was practically all I was DOING over at Black Mesa. If I can get a good spectral signature that I can identify separately from the sucrose compounds, I can shorten the testing time."

He slaps the table gently. "I should have thought of this WEEKS ago! All I need in a confirmed drug specimen, and I'll work on it for as long as it takes!"

But as for more immediate problems...

"But for the moment, we'll have to resort to cruder testing mechanisms I suppose... the question is, who among us will be the guinea pig?"

Connor looked at them both.

He didn't even need you to ask. He WOULD do something like this and he already decided he would.

"I will. I will injest it."
thewrightidea: (Hmmmm)

[personal profile] thewrightidea 2013-05-24 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
"No!"

Phoenix immediately piped up when Connor spoke. He didn't even know the guy, but...

"I'm the one who thought of the idea. Let me do it." He would feel too bad making someone else do what he suggested. It was too hard to do.

"I... have experienced these drugs before. Last summer. I accidentally had a blue lollipop and had no idea it was drugged."

[personal profile] trustycrowbar 2013-05-24 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Gordon runs a hand over his face and waves down the conversation. "Alright, alright, kids, you both can share. Problem is, whoever goes first will have to be under observation for an hour after each test. I'll handle that part."

That, and after the biochemical mess his suit's morphine-happy med systems have put him through, he doesn't want to risk taking anything that would even remotely resemble an opiate.

"Phoenix, you said you had a blue one before? How did it affect you?"

After Gordon spoke, Connor said something else though. "Which is more of a reason why I should. I have not undergone the drugs. No one should have to more than once, if it can be avoided. I am willing to take the risk."

He was gonna fight this, he's like to have less people get affected by it afterall.

"I do not want to see others fall to the drug. The more able hands if one has a reaction the better."

No matter what response, he decided to bring it up if it arose. For now, he listened in on blue pops.
thewrightidea: (Prayer)

[personal profile] thewrightidea 2013-05-24 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
Well, Phoenix wasn't one to use recreational drugs, so it was difficult to really compare the experience of the blue pop to anything.

"No no, Dr. Freeman, only one of us should do it. Let's not expose more people than we have to."

But he sighed, thinking of that experience with the blue lollipop those many months ago. It was something he wanted to forget, frankly, because it made him feel fairly sick after he came down from that trip.

"Well... To be honest, I don't remember a lot of it. But what I do remember... Just..." He rubbed his temples, trying to bring forth the memory and trying not to be embarrassed by it. "I remember that my everyday surroundings seemed so... surreal. Otherwordly. Scary. I remember running away from everything a lot."

"Two testers mean we split the risk." He counters. Although he's beginning to think that more words would be useless in this situation. He realizes the battle of wills that's beginning to take place here, and figures it would be better to just let them duke it out. In the metaphorical sense, that is.

"...All right, if you two insist."
mohawk_tomahawk: KATE (understanding)

[personal profile] mohawk_tomahawk 2013-05-25 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
...

"Phoenix. I insist you do not take it."

He really meant it. "Besides, you may have sprouted the idea but it was a notion I planted. I am ready for the consequences."

No one, he repeatedly tried to get across, should go through it.

"You know some of the effects and you had lived through it. If I went under, you could use that knowledge and try to subdue me should you need."




Connor's a pretty stubborn mule.
thewrightidea: (Semi-serious)

[personal profile] thewrightidea 2013-05-25 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Well... Phoenix had to admit that Connor made a good point. He really didn't want to go through that horrid trip again at all, even though he knew some of the drugs were different. Some were similar to steroids, some were aphrodisiacs, tranquilizers, and the like. But he didn't want any of them, unless it would help others.

"I... I don't want you to have to go through with this, but..." He was tense, gripping the fabric of his pants. "But if you insist, then... I suppose I can't stop you." He loosened his grip, exhaling the rest of his breath. A hard thing for him to say.

"Don't worry, he'll be safe." Gordon mutters to reassure him. "I'm not letting him out of my sight until I know he has full mental capacity."

"Here's what's going to happen. I want to do this as far away from the students as possible, but I'm not sure where yet. If you two have ideas, I'd like to hear 'em. You'll get half the dose; the other half of each will be retained for experimentation and confirmation, should it have an effect. And that way if we DO have a drugged pop on our hands, it won't affect you as strongly."

[personal profile] mohawk_tomahawk 2013-05-25 02:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Connor nodded. Nodded at everything when Gordon spoke. He was feeling like he was being trusted into this, which was good. He knew he was doing something crazy, but he had to do it. He trusted Gordon to look after him, and Phoenix so far had been proving himself surely.

"Is there an vacant room we would use? Or a place not many students go to?"

Connor almost suggested the woods, but he'd like to not be too far from where he could have...medical assistance.
thewrightidea: (This is weird)

[personal profile] thewrightidea 2013-05-25 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, it wouldn't be as bad as last time. Whoever took the drug - Connor, he supposed - would be supervised and it wouldn't be as intense. It was still difficult for Phoenix to allow this man he had never met before to do this, but there really wasn't anything more he could say.

"Well, we could use one of our dorms, if you live in the teachers dorms," he suggested.
trustycrowbar: (Coffee)

[personal profile] trustycrowbar 2013-05-25 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"That's a valid idea. The health office is another--I think it may be vacant now."

For... related reasons.

"Just as long as we have a lockable room that's big enough for two people plus some walking space."
mohawk_tomahawk: KATE (over my shoulder)

[personal profile] mohawk_tomahawk 2013-05-25 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
"Once we find the place, we can do it immediately. Or we should. The supplier of the food would be worth looking for then. Then there is who set up this party..."

Connor was musing alot. And well, the health office.

"The Health Office seems sufficient."

Not the dorms. At least, not Connor's. His dad lived a couple doors down and.
thewrightidea: (Relaxing)

[personal profile] thewrightidea 2013-05-25 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
The health office was good in theory, but...

"Well, the problem with the health office, though, is that couldn't students walk in at any time? If they somehow got injured or something, I mean." Also, he knew that Rhys worked there. While Rhys was a nice guy, he wasn't sure what Rhys would think of something like this...

"Are you sure the nurse isn't in there at this time?"

"No, I'm not, but it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing if he were there."
mohawk_tomahawk: KATE (understanding)

[personal profile] mohawk_tomahawk 2013-05-27 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"It is settled then. After we are done here, let us go to the medical office."

The mention of Rhys pinged him. His miraculous sorcery healed Haytham...then perhaps if he was in a bad way, he would feel bad...but he could trouble him for help there.

He would indeed feel terrible for that, since Rhys seemed so kind. But he had to do this.
thewrightidea: (Tuxedo)

[personal profile] thewrightidea 2013-05-27 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Phoenix really couldn't help feeling terrible if Rhys was somehow dragged into this. He had already inadvertently dragged Rhys into a drug investigation already, and the man seemed so... innocent. And while he was a nice guy, Phoenix thought he might get in the way. Maybe.

"Well... I guess. I just wouldn't want students coming in."
trustycrowbar: (Angstrom Focus)

ACK, sorry guys, got distracted.

[personal profile] trustycrowbar 2013-06-04 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
"It shouldn't take too long." Gordon chimes in, draining his coffee.
