[you’re ushered into doors that appear in the roots of Otto’s trees. The room is similar to last time - small, but with enough chairs for your entire team to sit down, and a table at the center. There's also a few, small beds, should anyone feel sick enough that they have to lay down.

On the table is another cardboard box, similar to last time as well. Only this time when you peer in, there’s a myriad of different herbs and other things. Otto’s voice echoes into the room with his usual, bored tone]

Last time,you cared for a friend of mine. This time, you’ll care for you and yours.

You make medicine with mortar and pestle right?

[ Why a blender... ]

Re: SUBMISSION

[3g]

Isn't mortar what you use to blow shit up?!

JK DISCUSSION BECAUSE I CAN READ

[skypsalms]

H, huh?

[ SHE HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH THINGS. ]

....LMFAO OOPS

[3g]

You know, like... bombs. No idea what a pestle is, though.

[ HE HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH ARCHAIC METHODS OF MEDICINE. ]

GG US

[skypsalms]

O, oh... I have no idea if that's true but I was thinking of what Sol drew.

[ It's okay bro. They'll catch you up. ]

[3g]

[ bombs are better, as long as he's using them. ]

Err, alright then.

[skypsalms]

[ Bombs kill people :( ]

Shall we try that?

[3g]

[ YES USUALLY THE PEOPLE THAT ARE TRYING TO KILL HIM. ]

Sure. [ He sounds a bit dejected. ] It's not the worst idea.

[skypsalms]

[ But, I ask you, why are you fighting in the first place?

Picking up on his dejected tone..! ]

Is there something wrong with this? Did you want to try something else?

[3g]

Mmmmrgh, no. It's just a pain in the ass being a computer program and missing the data I need for this. Because from what I can use for instincts, none of this would fix me. Anything else I have to pick up from you guys. [ A short laugh. ] It's fuckin' annoying.

[skypsalms]

It'll be okay, Chruch.

You'll soon learn who you are and even if you're not good at this one thing, I'm sure that there'll be a time where you'll be able to do something that we can't. No one, not even AI's, are complete on their own, right?

[3g]

[ Complete on their own.

Ah, if only she knew how ironic that was. ]

Thanks for the pep talk. [ Only half sarcastic, okay. ]

[The good thing about using paper to communicate, as well as actual art skills:

He draws what he thinks a mortar and pestle is, which is to say, a bowl and a handle-ish thing that you use to grind the stuff in the bowl. And he then labels it as "mortar and pestle?"]

Re: SUBMISSION

[3g]

[ what the fuck is that.

people used these?? ]

So, it's basically just a blender but with more work.

Re: SUBMISSION

[secretofthefox]

Kind of. And it works dry, I think.

Re: SUBMISSION

[3g]

So, with the apple juice it'll make a paste.

Re: SUBMISSION

[secretofthefox]

Probably?

[He has no idea how the apple juice would fit in with using a mortar and pestle, honestly, but then he has no idea what he's doing in the first place! So. You know.]

Re: SUBMISSION

[3g]

[ SHRUGS. ]

Guess I'm not a medical AI.

Re: SUBMISSION

[secretofthefox]

That's okay. I think we're all kind of winging it.

Re: SUBMISSION

[secretofthefox]

Apple juice seems like it would be hard to use with that, but the rest, sounds about right.

Re: SUBMISSION

[skypsalms]

Well maybe we can just pour it into the apple juice when it's all done? It'll go down easy like that, right?

Re: SUBMISSION

[secretofthefox]

That makes sense.

Re: SUBMISSION

[skypsalms]

Yeah! I'd think so. I hope this works out well.

Re: SUBMISSION

[secretofthefox]

Hopefully!
