exsilium | 2nd keystroke [video]

[The feed turns on just in time to catch a sneeze. When Claudia sits back up to look at the feed she's as white as a sheet, her skin slightly damp with sweat. Okay... maybe video was a bad idea in retrospect... but there's no turning back now, is there? She sniffs once before starting, spinning her chair a little as she speaks]

Alright. We get it. A crapload of people are getting sick and everyone else is scrabbling around trying to figure out why and how to stop it. We get that. What we don't have is a lot of show and tell between everyone doing the searching. At least, not that I've seen. People are finding stuff but not everyone's sharing with the class. I mean, I've been playing a little hide and seek, myself, and I'll show you mine if you'll show me yours if you know what I'm sayin'

[She laughs, which quickly turns into a coughing fit. When she finally stops she pulls in a breath that sounds a little painful before continuing]

See? You're killin' me, here! [She chuckles wryly] Come on. Let's all play nice and share what we know. You guys show me and I'll put it all in one place so everyone trying to fix this thing can see what we've got. Deal? Deal.
