[Science Experiment] || [Collar Fluid Research Start] || [Open]

Characters: Anyone who's willing to work for SCIENCE.
Setting: The Workshop (Floor 15) for the IC questions to the scientists and the mingle thread. Then each group will be positioned on a different floor so as to not alert the administrators with a large group of people gathering at a single place for a long time.
Format: Prose or action, whichever you prefer.

Summary: This log marks the start of the research on the collar fluid! As was mentioned in the sign-ups post, words was passed around about the need of more people to help and study the collar fluid. Characters signing-up have all been divided into seven teams, which can be found here. ICly, Doc Brown made the team based on what he thinks is the most efficient. You can still sign-up here.

There will be a thread in case your character needs to ask a question or anything to the starter scientists (Doc, Waver, Sertoria or Sephiroth) and in parallel a mingle thread for all the characters during the 'recruitment', even if they end up assigned to different teams. And then obviously, there are the individual threads for each teams so the new teammates can get and know each other if they don't already.

For their first day the teams will be on different floors, but following this nothing prevents two teams from working closeby or on different floors. For reference, there are three set of scientific equipment, each containing a microscope, a small centrifuge, beakers, test tubes, many testing apparatuses, etc. They'll be shared between the seven teams depending on what they need for their researches.

Warnings: Nothing! There will be no NPC tags here, researches shouldn't be dangerous and this log is mostly for the characters to get and know each other, so this should be a relatively harmless log. Well, unless you're in the Violet or Orange team of course. In which case, good luck.

You've gotta be kidding me.

[Jin wasn't all much for introductions, and he was usually all for meandering around quietly until important stuff actually began.

But well. It was kind of hard to resist.]


They're letting you actually research this stuff?

[As soon as Richtofen hears Jin's voice, any semblance of good humor falls off his face. He bites back a groan and turns to face him. He struggles visibly in an attempt to smile again, but he just ends up glaring.]

What? You do not think I can do it?
morituramfides: (To the ground)

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-08-26 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
[The fact that Richtofen is even trying to hide his usual temper already gets a quirk of the eyebrow.]

Seriously? I'm pretty sure your brain's too much of a ripped up sponge to do anyone any good here. Guess you know your way around a lab, but it's only a matter of time before you hit someone over the head with a beaker.

[That sounds like a lovely idea. Richtofen vividly imagines breaking a beaker over Jin's head, then stabbing him with the jagged glass until his skull peeks out. It comforts him enough that he actually manages to smile. It's sickly-sweet, though, and startlingly insincere even for him.]

You should not make fun of someone's medical ailments, child. It's quite offensive. Are you sure you are mature enough to be working on this project?
morituramfides: (We go Underneath the Arches)

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-08-28 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Jin admittedly has no context for that smile-- but we can all safely agree that Richtofen should probably get those tendencies checked out.]

Who's making fun? It's a legitimate concern. [If Richtofen was gonna play like that, fine he'll play like that!!] I'm just thinking about the safety of everyone else on this project. If you're so important, your deteriorating mental condition is a bigger concern.
doctor_dismemberment: (Pleasant Smile)

[personal profile] doctor_dismemberment 2013-08-30 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[Richtofen's eye twitches.]

I was speaking hypothetically. If I was the type of person who had such a condition, you have just displayed to me that you are not mature enough to approach the matter with due sensitivity.

[Says the guy who made a habit of making headshot jokes whenever he blew out a zombie's - or a soldier's - brains.]

Und we need adults to work on such a delicate project. Or, at the very least, people who can act like adults.
morituramfides: (What We Meant)

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-09-07 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
If we need people that can act like adults, then tell me again what you're here for?

[Well if that ain't the most shit-eatingest grin ever I don't know what is.]

[Richtofen can't stop himself from growling.]

Listen, you little shit-- I, I mean.

[He swivels his head around to make sure nobody heard him. Awkwardly, he coughs into his hand, then chuckles as if his conversation with Jin is the most lighthearted thing in the world.]

Ahaha, oh! Jin. Jinnyboy. I do so love the time we spend together. [It's worth noting that he's looking at the others, not Jin, while he speaks. And he's speaking loudly, at that.] Such fun, ja? With all of these fake insults. Quite entertaining. So great. I love it.
doctor_dismemberment: (Wary)

3/3

[personal profile] doctor_dismemberment 2013-09-18 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He snaps his head back around and fixes Jin with a glare. He continues in a harsh whisper.]

Keep up your shenanigans und I will dump acid down your throat. [He huffs.] Brat.
morituramfides: (Where the Toiling Ghosts spring)

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-10-08 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
[It's also worth noting that Jin wasn't helping at all with Richtofen's facade. In fact, he leveled Richtofen with one of the most weirded out and incredulous looks he'd ever formed and direction right at the back of Richtofen's head when he looked away.

And didn't bother to hide it when the man turned back.]


What, so you can keep up your happy preppy reputation? [Also worth noting: he's not bothering to keep his voice down. In fact, he may have started talking louder.] That's sure not my concern.
swordofzero: (sadface)

hope you don't mind

[personal profile] swordofzero 2013-08-26 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Suzaku frowned when he saw Jin, it had been a while since he had since he had been successful at avoiding him.

Though he held no ill will towards the other boy he was unsure about working with him, considering their track record.]
morituramfides: (I Once knew a Guy)

i never mind

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-08-26 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Even with Suzaku remaining altogether silent, he still somehow managed to catch Jin's attention out of the corner of his eye. Maybe he was just hyperware to annoyances at the moment.]

What, you're here too?! Isn't there anyone on this team worth their salt?
swordofzero: (sadface)

[personal profile] swordofzero 2013-08-26 08:35 am (UTC)(link)
Apparently not. [Well that answers the question of whether Jin was going to put their differences aside for the greater good.] I didn't expect to see you here.
morituramfides: (We were Alright)

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-08-28 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Call it a service to the community. [Well, at least he's not spitting vitriol as bad.]

I have a...vested interest in undermining the system put in place to screw us all over. Don't worry, I'm just here to make sure none of you get your asses whooped.
swordofzero: (sadface)

[personal profile] swordofzero 2013-08-28 09:02 am (UTC)(link)
I can't argue with that. [He shrugged] That is one thing we can all agree on.
morituramfides: (But I'm just so Tired)

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-09-07 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
Then maybe we can agree to just ignore each other.

[OK he probably would get in trouble for doing that, but he can dream.]
swordofzero: (sadface)

[personal profile] swordofzero 2013-09-07 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
If that is how you would prefer to proceed then I will not argue.
morituramfides: (And as the clock Tick-Tocked)

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-10-08 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Huh. That was relatively painless.]

You're being surprisingly cooperative for once.

[No Jin, that's usually just you.]
swordofzero: (not impressed)

[personal profile] swordofzero 2013-10-08 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Funny how more responsive people are when you are not setting them on fire Jin.] Indeed, I see no point in arguing when we are working towards a common goal.
morituramfides: (Where the Toiling Ghosts spring)

[personal profile] morituramfides 2013-10-10 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
[the fuck do you mean arson isn't the answer

He looks to think about this for a minute-- looking away and begrudgingly considering his words.

And then, he looks back, his eyes narrowed, but no longer completely hostile.]


Truce?

[More than just ignoring each other, it seemed-- he even held out his hand for a shake, almost like a peace offering in and of itself.]
swordofzero: (they did what?)

[personal profile] swordofzero 2013-10-10 08:22 am (UTC)(link)
[He blinked, not expecting that at all. But nodded and shook Jin's hand tentatively.] Truce.
