Room 379
Black returns the object to it's box and closes the lid. "First, gloves. I didn't exactly have time to grab any, though, so I'm just being careful. That's why I've only held it by the chain - the effect seems to come from contact with the watch itself. Third, this is further evidence of something we already suspected - it reacts more strongly to those with what you'd call 'psychic' abilities. I'm very carefully making sure I don't copy anything off of Fred, Joey, or Solyn, among others with such traits around here."

He pulls out the blue light gadget again and gives it another pass through the air. "And something definitely happened, but it doesn't seem to have been here."

Doyle
As he walks, he could swear he hears the clatter of dice from somewhere. The sound, imagined or not, stirs his memory - hadn't the dream the noise had woken him from been about a casino or gambling or something?

Upon finding his way downstairs and asking around, he's informed that Black and a number of the others are over in research.

Cassandra's Team
Way out in California, Terry gets a sudden sense of something massively important happening far back to the East. It's impossible to tell what triggered it - all she knows is that her "sense important item" object picked up something normally far, far outside it's range.

[Chanlin]

Doyle makes his way over to research after asking a few people for directions. Once he arrives he doesn't bother waiting to state his piece. "Something odd just appeared in my room."

((wimp :P))

((yes, but a living wimp ))

"Local species of spi-. S***! Get the affected antivenom for both recluse and widow. NOW! Savant, I don't care how, get me eyes and ears on this Tango. Use whoever you have to. Nice Remington 700, by the way."
He pointed at "J and K" again, "You two, find me the local US Army base with a HazMat unit and an EOD unit. I need full-on chemical gear and anti-explosives armor. The rest of you, keep the media and authorities under wraps. I hear about leaks, I will find those responsible and do things Abu Greib never even dreamed of.
"Also, let's assume we are on a VERY short time-frame and facing a cross between ALIENS and Hellboy 2. And if I hear anyone ask 'What's ALIENS?' I'll break their face on the nearest hydrant. You wanna know, Google it."

[Mytical]

Fred follows all instructions, but seems a bit distracted. He starts noting some of the other things he's seen, hoping the person taking notes is still paying attention. He is more worried about getting the images of the flashes noted then his own health.

[Kheldarson]

Solyn blinks at the newcomer's statement before throwing her hands up. "I can only handle one crisis at a time. Black, you take care of it. Take the idiots if you want." She continues escorting Fred down into another part of the labs and sets him up in an exam room that doesn't look too much unlike a doctor's office. "I'm going to track down a couple of assistants. Be right back.

Back in room 379, Loren asks, "Is all this chaos going to be normal from now on?"

[KabeRinnaul]

Room 379
Black's getting up. "Of course. After all, I was waiting for this one. So, Doyle, lead the way, and we'll find out what other damage this little experiment has caused."

Though he pauses in heading for the door to respond to Loren's question. "Only on the good days."

Atlanta
Browning and Winchester nod and jump into what seems to be a FEND car, the latter dialing on a phone as the other drives, likely calling in emergency resources from a poison control center. Agent J seems a bit amused by Agent Clark's sudden leap into a command role, but does as directed, staying out of the way as he places a call - Agent K seems to primarily serve as J's assistance in getting the military assistance together. Savant is easily the calmest of the group, speaking to a junior agent for a moment before quietly finding a position on top of a small truck to get a bead on the EN, affixing some sort of camera to the back of his rifle's scope as the junior agent digs around in the truck before setting up what seems to be some kind of parabolic microphone.

He passes a headset up to Savant, who relays information back to Clark. "Initial reports were mistaken. What seemed to be long appendages were in fact masses of spiders. I'd already seen that when I tried to line up shots on the central mass, but I've yet to locate anything beneath the swarm. The shape does suggest there is a solid form underneath, however. And no audio communication at all."

In addition to his report, the video and audio feeds are being sent to a small display they set up along with the parabolic mic.

[Sarlon]

Sarah wanders off during all the more talking still hearing fred's description of the events, smiles shyly at doyle then wanders back the way she orginally came and pokes her head into a research lab where the glasses went.

"Pardon me, would any of you mind if i watched? I kinda like seeing new things."

[Kheldarson]

Loren blinks as everyone suddenly splits and then shrugs and gets up herself, wandering more or less the direction Doyle and Black go.


Meanwhile, with Sarah, the researcher with the glasses blinks as Sarah speaks up. "Um...that depends. What are your powers?"

[Sarlon]

"absolutely perfect recall?"

[Kheldarson]

"Don't think that should react then...so have a seat." The researcher then goes back to tinkering with the glasses. And tinkering is about right: she has what appears to be a small hammer and is tapping the glasses softly, a small ting sounding with each strike.

[Sarlon]

Sarah sits as close as possible without getting underfoot to much.

"What are those exactly? I mean besides the obvious?"

[Kheldarson]

"The glasses? Don't know. That's what I'm trying to find out."

[Sarlon]

"can i put them on?"

[Kheldarson]

"Normally, I'd say I'm not in Harmonics, so no, but...given that it seems most of it's power seems concentrated in the lenses, that indicates you have to see through it to activate whatever it does, so your powers would probably be more of a help than or hindrance or an explosion waiting to happen..." She sighs and holds them out. "Just don't tell Kher if things go boom, okay?"

[Sarlon]

"tell who what?"

Sarah grins as she takes them, looking over them carefully, then still seating places them over her own eyes, keeping them closed till they rest fully on her face then opens them.

"well...this has got to be the creepiest thing I've ever seen...."

she reaches out in front of herself to thin air then appears to be stroking something, then she glances around the room grinning.

"creepy and weird....I think i had a dream like this once."
