There are a lot of potential tests I can run. DNA sequencing, diagnostic tests, predictive tests, etc. Typically said tests are ran within 24-48 hours of the sample being taken, but can remain refrigerated for up to six days. After that, we take more intensive measures to preserve the sample.
Firstly, medical has control of the blood bank. I've been there before, it's not as exciting as you think it's going to be. Just imagine a room of industrial refrigerators, lots of dates and identification numbers, not a single drop of it on the floor.
Secondly, what tests, and I hate to be a broken record but once again, why?
omg i did answer i just wanna see things why is this so bad don't u think i get sick of rift radiation sensors and grass sometimes i guess what tests r u doing lately
Because if you are, I can show you what I'm working on. I'm waiting on samples from the whole mole situation, obviously. Then I'm trying to run some tests on the "ditto" that attacked us — it left biological material on Jack.
And finally, of course, Miss Ernestine is waiting patiently for her results.
I don't need any help, but I can lie and say that I do if you want to listen in.
All I know is that her vitals are stable, and she's not showing any signs of Liminal mutations so far. She's still giving off radiation levels that are too high for her to leave, but she's eating and drinking and seems to feel normal enough.
Medical is cautiously optimistic. As well as deeply confused.
Oh, no. I love my powers. I can't imagine living without them. [...] But they come with limitations. And some social and physical discomfort. [...] And in my line of work I've seen to patients dealing with very challenging situations.
I don't like to pry, but I'm not sure what you can do. How are you "barely" liminal?
i mean i just think about someone's hair and stuff happens to it like the roots of it getting thicker or thinner or dying or changing color or whatev it's easy

Date: 2023-06-24 07:47 pm (UTC)And... no. I don't know why he'd be interested in that. What, exactly, is he asking?

Date: 2023-07-19 02:15 am (UTC)[...] Joking, obviously. Sugar and cream, please. Tomorrow morning we'll start going over all of it. And then lunch will be on me.
When it's time, Ernestine would probably like it if you were there while I'm explaining her results. I can tell she thinks I'm too serious.

Do u know yet what's going on with her??

dm 7/16
Date: 2023-07-19 02:57 am (UTC)ISheI bet that she hopes so too. But not all Liminal powers are fun. She might be better off staying normal. When you gamble, you don't always win.
