[ Yuri's sitting at her desk in the SSS headquarters, but it doesn't look like anyone's there but her right now. She's got her feet up on the desk and is tapping her fingers on her knee, thoughtfully. ]

I need two things.

One: A scientist in the DDD. If we don't get one that's willing to officially work with us, this isn't going to be as productive. Having you guys study viruses will be pretty useful, especially if we can get item number two that I need.

[ She holds up two fingers to the video, crossing her legs and leaning forward, but not taking them off of the desk. ]

Two: Golden Apples. If you haven't eaten yours yet, I'd like any spare apples worldhopped to me! They're apples containing viruses, I think that'd be something really important to see if we can't get some scientists to look at instead of sitting around observing events.

That said, the DDD should expect orders soon! I haven't forgotten you, don't worry!

[video forever!!!]

[chestboard]

...Hah.... a scientist, here? Pretty sure we only have crazy people around you know.

[ YUP ALL THE VIDEO yuri loves video ]

[tenminutes]

There are scientists around. I've spoken to at least two of them. You just only talk to the crazy people.

[Video]

[phinsteller]

[He holds up a pie tin that has about a quarter of a pie left in it. Here you go, Yuri. Take the darn thing.]

[ video ]

[tenminutes]

You made it into a pie?

permavid

[starblaze]

[pshhh she wants to keep hers.]

Does the apple retain its effects if there's still some of it left?

ditto

[tenminutes]

I don't know. Ferb's giving me a pie though, so I'll let you know.

[ video forever obviously ]

[doyoufondue]

[ guess who's covered in mud! 8D ]

So you really did want the apple and my cat speak wasn't way off?

[ as always~ ]

[tenminutes]

No, I was trying to warn you that the apple turned me into a cat. I want it now.

[Video]

[darklycharming]

I still have my apple. I haven't been all that hungry.

[ video ]

[tenminutes]

You're lucky you haven't eaten it yet then. Those things are all virused. Want to send it over?

[chronokinesis]

I have been planning to eat my own when I find ample opportunity to not have it interfere. The effects seem... rather interesting.
However, if the community does not deem fit to share my results, I can pass them on to you. Also - unless Dan decided to destroy what remains of his in a fit of temper [Which is rather likely in fact], I am fine with sending you that.

[tenminutes]

Just cut off a sliver if you want to play with them and see what it does. I think if you have the whole thing it lasts about a day.

[sosbrigade]

Wait, you could actually eat the apple? I've been using mine as a paperweight.

[tenminutes]

They're edible. They've got viruses in them, but no one knows which ones. Mine turned me into a cat, Battler's turned him evil, et cetera.

[screwloose]

Looking for a scientist? With me you get two for the price of one, and one of them is a virologist.

But we've been studying the viruses for close to four years, and our results are inconclusive, just to let you know.

[tenminutes]

Virologist? But these aren't actual viruses, they're community viruses so isn't that kind of just as useless or useful as any other science? Anyway, I'm fine with that as long as you promise you're not going to run off with any of the samples or anything. I'm getting apples with viruses in them. Even if they're inconclusive, there's actual physical stuff now. You can look at that and even if you can't figure it out, you can at least find out which one does what right?

[precursorstone_gun_nest]

Sure, I could send you mine. As for scientists... most of the ones I know are the wrong kind of scientists, and not really on the community besides. My girlfriend's a genius with just about any machines, and Vin's good at computers. Better, I guess, now that he is one.

[tenminutes]

Well I don't think there's such a thing as community virus scientists, so I'm taking anyone who thinks they can handle it. So far I've got a double-team offer. Just your apple will be fine!

[ video ]

[denies]

I still have my apple, obviously. [ like she would have eaten that after kitty!Yuri's warning.. or seeing what happened to Battler when he did eat it.. ]

You can have it, since there's nothing interesting to do with it otherwise.

[ video ]

[tenminutes]

Thanks! I'll figure out what it was for you.

[ If it's a kitty one.. Ange might want to watch out. Angekitty sounds like fun. Why did Yuri eat all of hers like a weirdo.. ]

[docfoul]

[You will find my apple has already been there for some time. Also, I don't expect you to obtain any significant results from these samples.]

[tenminutes]

Someone was feeling helpful. Thanks! [ She's pretty sure Doc Scratch knows her plans if she doesn't get any useful results with them though. Punishment games wahahaha ]

[thatsmyyogurt]

...What's the DDD?

[tenminutes]

Dangerous Duck Directive! Only it's not really that dangerous, but none of the other names we came up with that used that acronym made sense or sounded as good. Anyway, we're a group with plans to rebel against community viruses in order to stop the spread of them by any means possible!

[ even if that means partying. 8| ]

[hawkblocker]

Scien...tist?

[Hi, guy from bizarro medieval times here. So scientists study things... that's useful to know. It sounds disturbing, though.]

I have mine still, but I'd need someone to deliver it.

...question is, though. What's the incentive?

[tenminutes]

What kind of incentive are you looking for? We're trying to get these virus things stopped, I'd think that'd be incentive enough unless you're planning on giving yourself a virus.

[embersandashes]

If you attempt to provoke the community in any way, I will stop you.

[tenminutes]

Stop me from what? Throwing parties? Organizing people toward doing something that may or may not do anything?

[text forever unless yuri convinces him to change again lmfao]

[espy]

Already looking at an apple. Late.

What results are you expecting from these "studies"?

[ she's making it a goal since he hates doing it so much. video. ]

[tenminutes]

I was busy. Even if they don't find anything, at the very least they should be able to identify which apples correspond to what virus. So far I've only got one scientist volunteering himself and another, which is kind of funny considering that I've actually got samples to offer them. You'd think more of them would be up to the challenge.

Get on video.

[callmeoniisan]

Hey, Yuri, I've decided. Where do I sign up?

video forever

[tenminutes]

Haha! I knew I could count on you. Kyousuke right? What was your last name again?

[amomentofsympathy]

[Nasuti holds up a golden apple.] I'm surprised it hasn't gone bad, but...now that you've explained your hypothesis, that would make sense.

I'm a scientist of sorts, but more an anthropologist than an geneticist. Would that suffice?

[tenminutes]

I've already got a few people working on the virus apples, but if you're an anthropologist, then I might have something else you can do! Are you up for the challenge?
