That is, after she recovers.

>>100292
Yes, except that they almost certainly wouldn't call it suppress and instruct people to spray it on aliens if that were the case.

We still don't know what S and C-S do. We could end up crippling ourselves.

I give the creature some time to calm down.

"Have a name, claws?" I ask.

"Mitzi," it says.

"What's Suppress?"

"Makes me weak. Tired. Sick. Can't do things right. You've got it in your blood. I had some in me already, though. Feel better now."

"What are you?" I ask.

"I'm a human. What are you?"

"Ahaha i wish i knew."

"You used to be human. What are you now?"

"As far as I can tell I'm a Tozol, though I have no idea what that is."

>>100312
What a Tweest.

Answer truthfully or dodge the question?

Dodge the question. She ain't human. Ask her what in tar'nation is happening here!

Let's not let on that we know. We were obviously being heavily restrained because they thought you were a danger.

>>100312
There's no way she's human. Did you see those claws she had, and her fangs? Hmph. Probably some kind of shapeshifting thing, and Suppress was keeping her from maintaining her human disguise. Well, it's not like it matters much. Tell her you're a Tozol, and that you know she's not human.

Inject yourself with an extremely small amount of counter-suppress and see what it does.

>>100312
Oh also ask her if Suppress normally wears off.

Shoot up the fucking counter-suppress already. You need to be at maximum power.

>>100324
I recommend smelling, touching, tasting before injecting.

I remember the skeleton I found.

"No, you're something else," I say. "Humans don't have claws and teeth like that. Theirs are more square."

She looks at me and doesn't respond. Her eyes change.

"I think I'm called a Tozol," I say.

"I don't know what that is."

"Does Suppress wear off?" I ask.

"Slowly."

Okay. I think I can train my gun on her with one hand while I get the syringe with the other.

Bad idea. Get out of the room and lock the door.

"I'll be back."

Well apologize for being rude for starters, clearly she was human at one point.

"Sorry," I say. "For saying that. I just... Look, I have to go."

"Don't leave me here," Mitzi says. She sounds firm, but doesn't leave the corner.

"I'll be right back. I just have to do something."

"Let me out first!" Mitzi says.

No. We've made a decision and we're sticking to it. If I don't, we're just going to keep wondering. Besides, if it didn't mess that creature up, it's probably not going to

That's a new voice.

I think I might need a minute, here.

>>100471
Is it too late to say "I told you so?"

Right, time to duck and cover, everyone, looks like we're about to have a brain-splosion here.

See you on the flip side.

Try to focus on one object in the room, keep looking at it, describe it to yourself over and over again.

Can you endure it? I would advise against injecting with Suppress now since the rebound is likely to shock your system. Might even be fatal. At any rate, your natural regenerative ability should be kicking in to fix things... hopefully.

>>100471
Also, what new voice do you speak of? We didn't hear it. What is it saying?

You didn't think there might be a reason you had lots of Suppress in your bloodstream?

It's not quite like you. It's not a discrete voice. It's more, thoughts. Images. And it's not telling me things. It's asking them.

>At any rate, your natural regenerative ability should be kicking in to fix things.
Yes. Finally.

>>100506
Maybe it's a symbiote.

Is it asking benevolent or malevolent things?

Nifty, but odd. I don't trust it.

What exactly is it asking.

Okay, it's good to know that "suppress" is appropriately named.

Is it over? How do you feel? I suppose we can let the devious shapeshifter out. Not sure if that's a good idea, though.

This seems crazy, but we already know I'm crazy, so I'd might as well go forward with it.

I think I'm becoming aware of my microbiology.

It's been, well, suppressed. A lot of me has. There's parts that are still broken.

There's also more of that drug in my bloodstream. I countered some of it, but there's more. There's also what feels like little particles inside me. Tiny machines that aren't supposed to be there.

I can try to purge them, but it'll take time and energy.

>>100523
Both of which are in short supply. Do you know what they are doing?

Should we stab ourselves with all of the C-S we can get our hands on?

What do they seem to be connected to?

>>100526
You know what? Fuck it. Inject another C-S.

Whatever these machines are doing, it's probably something we don't want them to be doing. I'd say purge them.

How tiny are we talking? Implant-tiny, artificial-organ tiny, or nanobot-tiny?

>>100526
We shouldn't be too zealous, it was painful enough with just that amount. Too much at once and the shock could kill her.

>>100523
Tiny as in microscopic? They could be nanoprobes. If they're not interfering with anything, don't bother with them - they could be rather beneficial (being able to repair tissue that your mutant healing can't do, neutralizing poisons far faster and efficient than your natural immune system, etc).

But this is very impressive. Don't take this the wrong way, but it's appearing more and more that you're not a natural occurrence, but rather the product of science.

Or, if we're lucky, you're the product of SCIENCE!

>>100532
YES.

>>100532
Well, she was in a tube, so we know that already.

>>100523
When you backed out of using the Counter while in Autopsy, it looked like you had to empty the syringe into a tray. First, let's get Miss Shapeshifter out of her cell like we said we would. Warn her not to try anything funny. Then check out the other cell we didn't look into yet.

>>100543
Where I was going with that tray thing is, we could go back there soon and drink up the precious C-S. You should be able to get some effect out of it that way right?

>Both of which are in short supply.
More than you know... Well, the energy part, I mean. I have no idea how much time we have.

What I mean is, it's not just the machines. My circulatory system, many of my muscles, and my senses have problems. I can just try to let everything heal at the same rate, or I can focus on an area.

I can focus on increasing my ENDURANCE by repairing my heart, or my PRIMARY SENSES, my eyes, or SECONDARY SENSES, my ears and tails, or my SPEED by repairing flaws in my muscles.

>You know what? Fuck it. Inject another C-S.
Both tubes are empty. I bet Mitzi didn't really need the whole thing, either.

>How tiny are we talking? Implant-tiny, artificial-organ tiny, or nanobot-tiny?
Micro but not nano... I think.

>>100554
Heart.
IRON WITHIN.

>>100554
I'd say go for Speed.

>>100554
SECONDARY SENSES.

Heart. If that thing fails you at a crucial moment it won't feel so good. Trust me, I've felt it before and ouch.

>>100556
Agreeing with this

I'd say go with speed first.

I'd heal evenly just because I don't know what would be best.

The micromachines aren't supposed to be there, but do you know if they are helping or hurting?

HEART

Going with heart.

>>100554
Endurance. Speed and Heightened Senses wont do you any good if you can't last against any threats you come against.

Hey, are the tiny machines moving around at all?

....................

I have an idea.

Kill Mitzi and eat her to get the C-S back.

>>100580
YOU. YOU ARE BANNED FROM HAVING ANY MORE IDEAS.

heart. not being dead is awesome!

>>100557
SECONDARY SENSES YES
they help you notice threats before they become a threat.

I focus on repairing my circulatory system.

One of my hemi-hearts is damaged. The other half can function on its own, but not very well.

It may take some time to see results.

They're just floating in my bloodstream, as far as I can tell.
