Microorganism like bacteria and Germs.

[shiftingwinds]

I... haven't heard of those before?

[nodo]

[ i...


does. does law want to get into a discussion about life with a god? this seems a little on the "bwah" side of things. ]

You haven't? Shouldn't you have an idea?

[shiftingwinds]

Why?

[she doesn't get it. she's from ancient fantasy china, law! ancient!]

[nodo]

[ look!!! he doesn't know how gods work!!!! ]

Nothing.

[ guess law will just educate this god about microorganisms now??? he'll grab microscope slide and look for something that will surely have some gross stuff on it. ]

Come here, I'll show you what they are.

[shiftingwinds]

[comes over to look at the gross stuff!! i guess!!]

[nodo]

[ sorry sqx but here! look!! gross things that...have something squirmy. law will make sure it's in focus before she takes a peep.

i'm taking creative license with this u_u enjoy a microb sqx. ]

[shiftingwinds]

[


this is weird but also kind of fascinating.]

What is it?

[nodo]

I couldn't tell you what it is exactly—I don't know what you can find around here—but it's what you'd consider a microorganism.

[ he'll gesture to the microscope for her to understand the relationship. ]

Or a creature that you need a microscope to see.

[shiftingwinds]

Oh, because it's so small...

[nodo]

Exactly. [ a single nod. ] There isn't much to worry about; microorganisms will always be there co-existing with us. The problem is when they try to exist inside of us.

[ ... ]

Or, at least, for the most part. It gets complicated.

[shiftingwinds]

...uh, why would they go inside us...

[


a pause]

Oh, is this like the bacteria thing Kaz mentioned a few weeks ago? With the hot tub?

[nodo]

Bacteria with the hot tub?

[ i.


did i miss something? ]

[shiftingwinds]

He said hot tubs are a living soup of human-borne bacterias.

[nodo]

[ ........ ]

He's probably not wrong if no one's cleaning them.

[shiftingwinds]

[she makes a face]

[nodo]

[ he'll..... wait?

but also wow can you see why he wasn't enthusiastic about going to the hot tub last trial??? blood my dudes. (and then look at what happened to molly just recently...) ]

[shiftingwinds]

I sincerely hope someone has been cleaning that.

[nodo]

I haven't been playing the odds.

[shiftingwinds]

That is probably a good idea.

[nodo]

[ because he


has to ask. ]

Have you taken a dip in the hot tub before now?

[shiftingwinds]

...yes but it was at the beginning of all this. Around the time we first got here.

[nodo]

Sorry if I ruined any future plans of your's.

[shiftingwinds]

I had no plans whatsoever to get back in that tub.

[nodo]

Terrible experience the first time?
