Town Hall, Thursday Morning

[fjordicswagger]

"Can anybody tell me anything more about what's going on here?"

Tamsin didn't just call town hall meetings twice in a row for fun, you know. ... Okay, maybe a little. Just to watch the anti-social ones scramble. Whatever. She crossed her arms, surveying the crowd.

"Anyone from the recon team? Anyone who's been sticking their faces in books for the past few days? What are these things, what's happening with the bitey, and who do we need to punch to get out of this mess?" Beat. "Chop chop."

... It was bound to be another informative meeting.

Peter nodded at Ghanima. "That's the best way to handle the actual vampires." He was scowling at the thought of them. They gave bloodsuckers a bad name.

"It's not the only way to help the ones that've been bitten, though." He held up a piece of paper he and John had taken notes on. "There's a mix - garlic, colloidal silver, and water, in specific proportions. If you can get one of the feral ones to drink it, they'll turn back to human. I doubt it'd be practical to just spray them down and hope to get it in their mouths, but it should help our own, at least."

Anakin nodded. "Get it to the clinic and turn it into IV drips, perhaps."

"I don't know if that'll work, but I don't see why not," Peter agreed.

"It's that or a bacta-like dunking bath, so I thought the IV seemed neater," Anakin said.

No one needed Beaker floating in his skivvies, Peter. No one.

Peter took a moment to try not to picture that.

"The information we got said they can drink it, so I just thought we'd pour it in their mouths."

Not everyone went immediately to dunking, Anakin.

Space science, Peter! Who needs normal medicine when you can float people in tubes?

"Or that way, but mine is more fun."

"...I think we have different definitions of 'fun', but as long as it works, I don't think anyone will care."

As long as you knew how to give IV fluids.
