Wei Wuxian is sitting upright and grumbling to himself about something or another, gingerly touching his forehead where Dick's slapped a band-aid over his bruise for literally no reason. Thanks, Dick.]
[The stupid thing is that under normal circumstances he'd get it immediately. BUT HE JUST WOKE UP AND IS ANEMIC AND CONCUSSED, FOR THE SECOND TIME IN AS MANY WEEKS, AND HIS POOR BRAIN IS STILL OUT OF SORTS.
So she just gets
a truly horrified face
that's also the math lady meme because his working braincell back there that isn't bruised is clearly trying to argue against the logistics here.
But he's also moving automatically so he's definitely heaving himself out of the cot, good bye.]
I hear there's heart medication over in that cabinet over there. Just look for something that ends in -pril if you think you need help recovering from that heart attack.
[ there's no such thing over in the cabinet she waves at, of course. ]

Adrenaline shots tend to help if you're still early enough in the stages of ELID infection, though it's usually only meant to help you get out of the contaminated areas.
Ah, but you have fierce corpses instead of ELID. Hm. Perhaps not, then.
[Eventually he decides the floor is not good for his broken body and pushes himself upright again, pulling himself back onto the cot. He gives the epipens a look, wrinkling his nose...]
What is ELID, anyway? Another sort of undead thing? Why are there so many undead things in so many different worlds? Even I can't handle so many different ones at once...
[His concussed ramblings are just mildly different from his usual ramblings, god.]
Short for Eurosky Low-Emission Infectious Disease. People with the condition are referred to as ELID Infected, shortened to either ELID or Infected, though Infected tends to refer to those earlier on in the disease's progress than ELID does.
I suppose they'd be closer to your fierce corpses than traditional zombies, as you aren't particularly likely to be infected by one of them specifically so much as simply being unfortunate enough to be in the same general area. Mainly because they're created by environmental factors in the first place.
[RADIATION ZOMBIES...... Wei Wuxian doesn't even know what a radiation is and his first introduction is just more zombies.
His nose wrinkles a little, brow furrowing, until his expression on a whole is briefly scrunched up.]
Mm... I'm guessing they cause a lot of damage even if they can't infect others then, hah. Fierce corpses are the same. They can't turn you into one of them, but you still don't want to be bitten by one. [Because they will just feast.]
Contamination, essentially. It's carried by the wind, and can settle across wide swaths of land and poison it for generations to come.
It isn't usually an instant thing, generally, unless you're unfortunate enough to be caught in the worst affected areas or didn't bother taking shelter during a storm, but even minor cases of exposure build up over time. If you're unlucky, it twists you more quickly. The organs fail first, including the brain, and by the end of it you're left with nothing but a violent, empty husk that doesn't realize it should be dead.
Ah - for that? [IT MAKES SENSE but also wow. The more he learns about 45's world, the less he knows... The future is weird and technology is wild.
But he blinks at that. DID THEY-- Ah, right.]
Terrible, honestly. We were possessed by our costumes, Ookurikara kidnapped a flock of sheep and ran away, and Lili and I had to fight an-- a troll, I believe?
[He just makes a face at that... DO YOUR OWN WORK HUMANS.
That sure has him huffing in amusement, though. He doesn't know shit about Western fairytales but he does know that their break-in did not go as it should have gone.]
Mm... I think we went quite off from the intended script. The music stopped playing after a while, actually?
Hah - not from the audience, no. I did find something nice, though. [WHICH HE WILL TELL 45 ABOUT IN DETAIL since he trusts her to... hold their collective braincell.]
A book with a blank line at the back. Whatever idea is written there will become real, but not necessarily as planned. Could be useful! Could also go terribly wrong.
A squad shrouded in mystery. ▓▓▓▓▒ has met them once, and others can only guess at the members' identities from rumors. Members of the squad all have advanced AI and high capacity for independent operation. Rumor has it that Squad 404 usually deals with ░▓▒▓▓▓▒▓▓▒▒▒░░
