Library; Wednesday [ 11/14 ]

There was a pox upon the house of Fandom; a pox, a plague, an epidemic. Nurse's onset abates, noses run. Clearly, the source of it was something viral, and the toes on Adah's good foot curled, her fingers tingled, with the chance to find out something more. Bad enough she couldn't haunt the corners of the makeshift hospital in the town hall, gathering qualitative research from the victims afflicted while visions of petri dishes and a chance to get near a microscope danced in her head...may her left side be stricken as useless as her right should she allow herself to be constricted behind a desk when there was research to be done. A curse upon her, a pox, a plague, an epidemic. But not until she found something out first.

There was a sign on the desk, instructing anyone that truly needed assistance with anything to interrupt her at a station set up for researching, with the threat of awful, terrible things that would put the virus' work to shame if the interruption was deemed unworthy. It was getting books, people. How hard could it be? And hell hath no fury like an obsessive virologist scorned.

"Because that would be too easy," Hermione answered, her own version of 'hey how's it going?' "And unfortunately I don't think it would prevent others from getting sick in the first place."

Willow tapped away at something on her laptop. "But if it killed the germs? Do we even know if it's germs or is it a virus? Because one would mean we come up with a big ol' ball of Lysol spell, and the other is really annoying."

"I haven't heard anything definitive yet, and I haven't been down the town hall myself to see," Hermione said, eyeing the laptop. "Are you able to get a signal on that?"

"Could be some of column A and some of column B," Willow said, with regards to the illness. As for her computer, she said, "No! And it is really annoying. Normally I am all for the fun of breaking in to locations of an information-related variety, but not when people are really counting on it."

"Is there anything already on it that could help? Like, medical... something? All right, I don't have a computer of my own, so I don't know what to keep on it," she admitted.

"Some medical," Willow said. "Mostly magic and demons. Back home that tended to be what I needed to keep handy."

"Demons?" Hermione repeated. "I don't have any information on demons."

Focus, Hermione.

"Want it on a flash drive or a printout?" Willow immediately replied.

"Printout, thanks," said Hermione, who kind of loved Willow at this second. Platonically, of course.

"Bound? Staple? Three-hole punch?" Willow replied. Because these questions were important.
smartestone: (relaxed and pretty)

"Three hole punch," she replied. "Much easier to add in notes that way."

"Excellent choice," Willow said. She hit some buttons on her computer. "That's printing out up in my room. I'll put it in a binder for you and hand wavily drop it off at your room later."

"Thank you, Willow!" she said, grinning.

And then realized what they were supposed to be doing. "Right. Diseases."

"You're very welcome!" Willow replied. "And - um - yes. Illness. And how to make it go away."
