RE: Weird Power Appearance

Can you hear crickets in the next county? Are you able to now sing the entire works of Verdi even though you don't know Italian? Able to touch your eyeball with your tongue? Check in with Bridge Carson as soon as possible. An epidemic of weird abilities has broken out on campus, and while so far none of them are painful or harmful, we'd like to know what's causing it. At this point, Bridge has done an aura check on at least two people, and determined that yeah, even though the abilities are wackily dissimilar, they've at least got the same cause. We're hoping to find out if it's a spell or Fandom's version of El Nino by comparing other people who are suffering from the same ailments.

So if you could help us out, or point people who've recently started being able to detach their arms, sneeze like a hurricaine, or taste the color purple toward Bridge? That'd be great. And if any I-Club members have suggestions on how to investigate this, please reply to this email.

Thanks.

[Yes, this is a Logan-approved development, and no, it's not going to slow down Typhoid Mary's Echoll's rampage of power distribution. We're taking baby steps that won't screw up the plot, mostly just laying groundwork. Thanks.]

New. And odd. Animals stick to Bridge-- why are pens sticking to you?

Ever encountered anything weird enough in the alien database of bizarre to account for any of this?

And maybe it's just a magic virus? We can hope.

Pen stuck to hand. Maybe sticky hands. Nothing else sticky--ex., my elbow is fine, shoulder, hips too. HATE THIS.

Started in ACJ. Not alien to my knowledge.

Going to make eating a problem. BIG ONE.

This reminds me that we should make a chart, tracking when this stuff started for each person. Maybe a graph.

Sorry? Maybe you can just dunk your head in a bucket of popcorn? Or get Idiot Boy someone to feed you?

Good idea. Would volunteer if I COULD TYPE.

Popcorn =/= nutritionally sound. Think I know 'someone' who can help.

Stupid hands.

Is it just pens, or are other things sticking to your hands?

And if they are, *don't* touch your face! Or any other part of your body.

Hope 'someone' isn't busy for lunch, and that any other problems are avoided.

No clue. Refusing to touch anything else. Face or hair or whatever is why. Of course you realize this means I'll be touching something at the worst possible moment.

Can't call 'someone' yet. Ack. Can't use phone. He better have office hours.

Gloves? Although then they'd probably be semi-permanently attached. But if you don't stick to things through the gloves, at least you'd be able to open doors and eat.

Want me to call 'someone'? Just so 'someone' knows?

Surgical gloves an option. If pen can come off. How? No clue.

Still sticky.

I think 'someone' will be around later. Will try first. If not; will knock on your door. With forehead.

Good luck. And I'll leave the door open, and try to spare your head.

I get tension migraines.

Ow. But no other worries. Yet.
