daisy023 | REPORT 013 :: CATHARSIS // VOICE

This is Spartan TwentyThree.

New feathers. Any and all UNSC forces in the area. Respond.

... I'm back.

[ENCRYPTED TO CLINIC PERSONNEL // TOP SECRET // EYES ONLY]

What equipment do we have in the Clinic?

[ENCRYPTED TO VALVALIS // TOP SECRET // EYES ONLY]

Thank you. I mean it.

[ENCRYPTED TO PAPRIKA // CLASSIFIED // EYES ONLY]

Ma'am. That offer for treatment. Is it still standing?

[ENCRYPTED TO SUPERMAN // CLASSIFIED // EYES ONLY]

...

[She sounds meek when she asks.]

Can we talk?

[ACTION FOR HOUSE 20]

[Comm matters taken care of, she goes to House Twenty, having quite remembered the matter of the hat, and it's implications. With two knocks on the front door, the armored figure calls out.]

Mr. Castagnier.

[After that...]

[Later in the day, having gotten the package, the 7ft tall girl in red armor goes to the Clinic, hat in hand, to see if there's equipment there to see if there are hairs in it to analyze for DNA. Yes, for her, that damned hat is that important.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

There's some things I wanted to talk about. Sounds great.

[Beside the augmentations... the matter of the hat.]

I'm always willing to listen to you. Is there something you needed especially?

...Augmentations. And Research.

[The way she says it, she's not speaking the whole truth.]

[Anything odd in the tone, she puts down to Daisy wanting to discuss it privately instead.]

Alright. We'll meet as soon as I return.

Yes, ma'am. I'll be waiting.

[Unlike ONI, Daisy doesn't like hiding things of importance like this. But the Malnosso are nosy bastards through the journals, and even the Spartan knows about counter-intelligence.

That, and she still wonders if her last efforts of intelligence were what made the Malnosso take her mid-battle.]

I'm glad you're back.

[You probably won't notice, but Daisy smiles behind the comm... This was how Valvalis convinced her to return.]

I missed you all.

Thank you, Ami.

Me, too? [She... hadn't quite meant to blurt that out. But it still takes her by surprise to see herself or think of herself as someone people would miss.]

Why not? I consider you a friend, Ami. Beyond medical help, beyond rank, I like our talks, and I trust you.

It's just not something that easy for me, usually.

Ami... trust me when I tell you. It was not for me. It's easy to bond here, than where I'm from.

[That's all she can say. A few now know the truth, though.]

I understand. A lot of things happened, but, I've made some friends here, too, maybe.

There's no maybe about it, ma'am.

[Yes, you're still her superior officer.]

... Can I ask a question? What do you do to preserve samples in here?

What sort of samples?

[She accepts the formality easily; her own tendency is to be very formal herself.]

Blood. Cell culturing. Research. The likes. It will be needed. I'm visiting the clinic right now.

[Again, not the whole truth, but this BS over the journals may be enough at the moment.]

Is one of the doctors there to help you?

Looking for one.

[A small pause. There was someone.]

... Hastings.

He doesn't have medical knowledge or experience. If you're doing those things, you should call someone who can help you.

[Thing is, he was one person whom the Spartan needed for her "project". Sadly, the lack of MRI and PTE scanners are their greatest obstacle yet. Other than the journals themselves.]

When you're free, can you come?

Of course, I'd like to be able to help.

Thank you, ma'am.

[After looking for a handful of others with Robert, she awaits in the Clinic. First thing she'd do is apologize for being unclear as hell on what she wants.]

[After a polite goodbye, Ami heads to the clinic in, admittedly, some confusion. She heads inside and looks for Daisy immediately.]

[SPARTAN-023 removes her helmet as soon as she sees the Doctor.]

--Sorry for the BS, ma'am. I don't trust the journals.

[Daisy, you might have just outdone Ami in paranoia. But she understands. She's always assumed, at the very least, the Malnosso can see everything in the journals - even the parts supposedly locked from them.]

I understand. What is it?

[Daisy-023 right now is innocent compared to what other Spartans would be like in this place. That's a worrysome thought.

She raises the hat. Catherine's hat.]

I want to know if the Malnosso are human.
