[IC] Field Trip!

"Have any of you noticed, no one that was ill is here having breakfast," Johnny says in his thick Irish accent.  "None of them.  I heard there would be some after effects.  Maybe they're really sick."

Niall says, "I was a giant germ if that counts as being sick."

"Your powers have to do with isolating and absorbing illnesses so you probably have a natural resistance to most sicknesses.  I assume whatever it was you absorbed that caused the outbreak and turned you into a giant germ is likely connected in some way.  Maybe the illness you absorbed activated a latent mutant gene within you.  It would be interesting to know where this sickness came from to begin with because it has a high likelihood of being genetically engineered or even alien in origin!  At least that's my opinion."  While Johnny spoke his eyes slow turn silver as a web of circuitry begins to creep out the corners of his eyes.  When he finishes his thoughts on the sickness his eyes return to normal.

  Niall nods in agreement, "That's true.  The Professor and I talked about the curious manifestation in me.  I know I can carry and transmit diseases without manifesting them myself, so you are probably right, I wouldn't count as sick in that way.  I would like to know where it came from as well.  If it is a regular disease I should be able to generate samples for study." Watching the circuitry grow and recede, Niall's mouth drop s open in surprise.  "I would love to know how your mechanical interfacing works as well."

Ashley raises an eyebrow at Niall's wish to generate samples for study.  "Niall, do you have any thoughts about where it came from?"  She then glances toward Interface.  "Johnny, you're the brain.  Any ideas?"
