Alright everyone calm the fuck down.

[easier said than done, but the command (military, a bellow without being a bellow) with which Jason says it over the network might (he hopes) be enough to get the attention of at least a couple of people.]

The ship has been hit with a batch of Fear Toxin. [he drawls it, irritation, and a very clear I'm looking at you Scarecrow.] Don't ask how it got there because we don't know yet, but it's concentrated around the Oxygen Garden. Basically this means we've got people hallucinating and attacking each other because they're scared out of their minds and if we don't get control of it sooner rather than later someone's gonna die. If you've got a gas mask or a rebreather, you might wanna put that baby on.


So- [you can practically hear the gesticulation in his voice, despite there being no video] Titans Assemble or whatever.

Aren't you informative.

[lethalforce]

Thank you. I try.

[cargojet]

They've really worked you over, haven't they?

voice;

[lethalforce]

Oh yeah, the full physical.

[it's a sarcastic drawl. he already knows what you're thinking B|.]

[totallyhisniece]

You actually want to team up with the rest of us?

[This is the first time Artemis has not shown her face on the network, and her voice is rough, like she's not really wanting to talk but making it happen anyway. Put her on the list of people who want to kick Crane in the face, please.]

[lethalforce]

What I want is kind of besides the point. This ship is huge and I'm not delusional enough to think I can stop every nutjob from taking their friends out on my own.

video; idk hero filtered? is that a thing?

[redwinged]

[ that is so wrong coming from your mouth jason. ]

There were four canisters in the Oxygen Garden.
No telling how many more he has on him.

video; HERO FILTER fuckyeah

[lethalforce]

You collected them?

Might wanna get those to medical.

[angroy]

Fear toxin? Well that explains everything.

[Also, that last line was really cheesy for some reason, but anyway...]

Is that your way of telling everyone to work against this?

voice;

[lethalforce]

[shut up Roy it's not like Jason does this team thing]

Well unless you have another idea.

[backwordscompatible]

[She's still a bit shaken, but the toxins were slowly working their way out of her system]

Are you sure?

It felt...so real.

voice;

[lethalforce]

That's the point.

[voice]

[uncodlyawwesome]

[This is coming from some time after he's helped Jack to Ianto and tried to calm him down.]

Oh, good, there's a fuckin' reason for this. Howw about you tell me wwho the fuck is responsible so I can deal wwith them? [He might not have a military command tone, but he's sure as hell got the "don't fuck with me" thing going for him.]

[voice]

[lethalforce]

Get in line.

Really? That's the best you could come up with?

[ video ]

[agile]

And if we happen to not have masks?

[ man, does sif want to fight something or does sif want to fight something. ]

voice;

[lethalforce]

Jerry rig something. Or stay the hell away from the Oxygen Gardens.

Video;

[gofortheoptics]

[Fortunately for Tali, her mask is built in!]

Is there a way to manufacture a cure?

voice;

[lethalforce]

Yes. We're working on it.

[voice]

[yardbird]

Fear Toxin, huh?

Terrific.



Don't have a gas mask, but I was just at the garden's not too long ago and I feel fine. Doesn't look like it's in effect right now.

[In other words, he's going to do what he can to help haul people into safe places while there's still time.]

[voice]

[lethalforce]

Really?

[a beat. that's... odd.]

Are you human?

[slayer_not_player]

[Sup commanding tone and relevant information. Tillman could use more posts like this.]

Is it fatal and is there a cure?

voice

[lethalforce]

It's only fatal when people start pointing guns at each other.

We're working on synthesizing one in medical.

[master_of_the_game]

And here I was hoping to have a quiet day.

voice;

[lethalforce]

Haven't you ever heard the phrase 'don't get your hopes up'?

audio;

[galacticheroine]

I thought it seemed like there was a hell of a lot of commotion.

How dangerous is this toxin? Beyond the obvious hallucinations.

audio;

[lethalforce]

In a lethal enough dose it can scare a person to death. I don't think that's the case here, we'd all be screwed if it was.

[unfiltrating]

[ Questioning Jason's authority is aside, way aside for the time being. Dick's face is obscured by an earlier gas mask, one with which the other boy might be familiar, and he speaks into the communicator he's programmed into his wrist console. ]

Getting people out of the gas's reach as we speak. Plans on how to take down the source?

[lethalforce]

[he does, and his gaze flicks over the video, raking the image and compartmentalizing the emotion it drags to the surface. he has things to do, he doesn't have time for nostalgia.

he doesn't turn his own video on.]

Red Robin has found the canisters.

I expect the culprit is working on his own, we just need to find him.
