I know a lot of people are still recovering from what happened to them, but we have a responsibility to help the ones who are still sick. The news reports say that they've been taken into medical care. I think we need to do what we can to help them. I'm not sure how.

If I was at home, one of my teammates would have an answer.

[Well, Pidge. Pidge would have an answer.]

She'd find a way to harness whatever this freaky blue stuff is inside of us so that we could help someone else. Make a vaccination. Something. Do you guys think we can pull that off? Or do you guys have any ideas for how we can help? We can work together and get those people cured. Some of you weren't yourself the last few days. I wasn't, either. Imagine being stuck that way.

There's one other thing.

A lot of people want to get home. A lot of us need to get home. We left something important behind. But if we're a part of what's happening here, there's a chance we'll be leaving this world in worse shape than we found it. We need to do what we can to help.

I guess I should also apologize. That wasn't me. But the people I talked to didn't know that. I'm sorry.

So. Let me know what you guys think. And how we can help.

I'll just say that it's not impossible.

[ because he's done it before. given, it wasn't this world ... ]

Forget the monster for now.
If we can find something at the building that helps, it'll be worth it. Sometimes you just have to trust where things lead you.

[secondnature]

All right.

I just don't think people should be going left yet. After we help people. Other people have a point. A vaccination may not work, and we know what definitely does.

[drivein]

You want to do the cure the old fashioned way.

[ he's not sure what makes it old fashioned, but it sounds appropriate. ]

[secondnature]

It's not old fashioned if we just learned about it three days ago.

Either way, we should look into the fire just in case this happens in the future. Figure out how it happened, and how whatever's in us can prevent it. But we don't know what'll happen to the people who are still sick. If there's one way to get better, who knows how they'll be if we leave them?

[drivein]

[ that's kind of funny but he doesn't say anything. ]

Sure. I've got my investigative stuff behind me.
It's the other stuff that usually isn't really in my skillset.

[secondnature]

It's in mine.

No chance you've heard of Voltron, is there?

[drivein]

Might have in passing, but where I come from doesn't do giant robots.

[secondnature]

[Jughead is a nerd.]

I'm the head of Voltron.

[Yes, that Keith.]

I've done some investigation, but it's better left to those who are better at it.

[drivein]

[ HE'S A TOTAL NERD AND HE'S KINDA NERDING OUT WHERE'S BETTY HE DOESN'T KNOW HE'S MEETING VOLTRON BYE. ]

Well, I've headed off the police a few times.
I'll see what I can do.

[secondnature]

Official channels usually don't know where to begin.

[drivein]

Yeah, no kidding.

[secondnature]

It's because they can't just listen to all that noise and figure it out. Make guesswork. We have the freedom to do what we want. We aren't hampered by rules.

[drivein]

And sometimes they're just corrupt.

[ there's a difference between Sheriff Keller and Sheriff Minetta, one with lack of resources and the other under the cold thumb of Hiram Lodge. ]

[secondnature]

You're right.

When I was growing up, it was usually the former.

[drivein]

For me right now, it's the latter. I'm not ruling it out.

[secondnature]

The cops here have been out there fighting, too. Just like us. Trying to help people.

They've been having a hard time.

[drivein]

Yeah, I get it.
But it depends on who's at the top of that pyramid.

[secondnature]

Trust me when I say that I get that. More than you'll ever know.
