That makes sense. I am not immediately thinking of anything else I'm likely to need but it could easily be that there's something I'm not thinking of.

Alrighty, let me know when you're going to be active so I can have my phone turned on for last minute whatever
Permalink

Lucy gives her the scheduled time.

looks matchy matchy, aces

Do you have, like, a specific colleague you're thinking of referring me to, for non-combat espering, and if so do they have a name?

Oscar Peabody, also with Maple, he agents for the TGH healer
Permalink

Oh cool. Do you know if the TGH healer has any opinions on the cancer angel stunt.

Permalink
haven't heard anything, sorry!
her codename is Epione
Permalink
google says it's Greek mythology
Permalink

Oh, right, google. I keep forgetting that's a thing.

Permalink
it is your new best friend!
Permalink

It is strikingly convenient! 

She googles Epione.

Permalink

Minor Greek deity of health.

Permalink

Checks out. It feels a little bit sad to settle for a minor health deity, but she supposes one must acknowledge one's limitations when one isn't no actually Lucy could really also do with some acknowledging her limitations, considering how many of her have died of not doing that

...She googles "cancer angel."

Permalink

News results! Some kind of esper / monster / secret third thing appeared, showed up in TGH, set up shop in the esper wing, and cured a lot of shit, most notably cancer.

Permalink

Who's arguing in favor of secret third thing?

Permalink

Some of the folks who got an interview with anyone who talked to her or May directly.

Permalink

Aha, that makes sense! Is anyone arguing one of the other two aware of those and just dismissing them, or...?

Permalink

Some of them are reporting that "secret third thing" was claimed but aren't willing to endorse this assertion. Somebody's dug up the information that Traceless is known to keep company with another monster.

Permalink

This is true. Although if they're being judgmental about it she's going to scowl at her "phone."

Permalink

"Monster", in the context where there's definitely not a live dungeon calling the shots, seems to be used with roughly the connotations of, like, "veteran", where you could draw inferences about potentially objectionable behavior from the entity in the past but you're definitely supposed to be chill about them now.

Permalink

Okay cool good. 

Oh, you know what she's going to spend a while on, she's going to catch up on "current events," both insofar as things have happened since 1999 and insofar as things have been different here than in witchworld, such as, for example, as a result of espers and dungeons. Have any presidents been different between witchworld and this one, for example, and who's been president since, and oops she may end up discovering wikiwalking. In concept if not the specific word. 

Permalink

Wikipedia is there for her, presidents and all, and they are definitely specific identifiable presidents whose elections probably say interesting things about the state of politics in esperworld.

Permalink

And all of this information is presumably only interesting instead of existentially horrifying because why would you put existentially horrifying presidents in a universe without a specific reason to. 

...

Lucy checks a couple of things, then finds a forum where people are discussing cancer angel and makes an account and posts A) a link to a news source about cancer angel with a photograph, and B) a link to a newspaper archive that both mentions her local grisly murder and has a picture of her.
