[Newt is in the park on the lower level but there's something a bit... different here all the sudden. It's hard to tell what he's standing in front of, because it's completely covered in some sort of fungus.
He looks a bit concerned.]
Guys, we might have problem.
[He pans the camera around the immediate area, and it's all the same, everything in sight covered in the same sort of fungus, and when he takes steps toward the edge of the lake, the angry red algae doesn't look much better.]
My gut says if it's red, you're dead.

[ Yeah, Ben, as if he couldn't figure that one out on his own. ]
There's gotta be some way to analyze it, right? With all those labs and all that tech...

what is it?

Any ideas?

Yeah, I dunno, but it seems to've come up outta nowhere. Bit insane how fast it happened, right?
no subject
yeah I was just down there yesterday and it was fine!
do you think it's poisonous??

... I feel like we should report this to someone?
but I guess that's sort of what you're doing already isn't it

[ She pauses. This is... very concerning? A public health hazard like this is something that, like, the CDC is supposed to take care of. Ami Aihara is not a CDC-trained biohazard specialist. She is a high school freshman with no survival skills to speak of. But if there's no qualified personnel, problems like these fall to the unqualified... ]
hey newt
I'm hoping there will be someone who knows how to fix this but
what if there's not
what should we do?
no subject
He blows out a breath in a long sigh.]
I dunno, uh-- I think Ben's on the right track, with the analyzing idea. We got some science-y folks around, maybe they figure it out, if... we can find a way to get samples for 'em. I'm just...not sure how't do that without touchin' it.
no subject
hey why don't we ask Peter!
he's really smart, I'm sure he'll be able to think of something
[ Ami you can't just rely on Peter for absolutely everything okay ]

[ Not that he's offering to be the one who does this. Ben has got that heroic self-sacrificing thing drilled into him like the rest of the Umbrella Academy, but he also likes being alive now thanks very much. He isn't going to volunteer for something like this where his own personal set of self-defense skills probably won't make a difference. ]
I don't know a lot about science and all that, but Peter Parker is smart. You might try asking him.

[Honestly, he's still trying to get an inner catalog of things in this place settled in his mind. He might have completely forgotten about the radiation suits. He hasn't aimed to go outside at all once he learned how dangerous it was. The Scorch had been bad enough with it's sand storms and lightning literally striking his friends from the sky, thanks.]
Yeah, all right. Seems to be a good consensus goin' there. Bloke must be up to his ears in stuff around here.
[He kind of feels bad for the guy, if he's honest. There's so much in that area of things to do here, and it seems like he's the main, if not the only, one here that can handle the brunt of it.]
no subject
alright he said he's working on it and he'll let us know if we can do anything
in the meantime we are to keep staying away from it
and I've decided to put my skills to work providing moral support for the people who actually know what they're doing :'D
no subject
There's got to be other qualified people, too. I don't know everybody around here.

I'm sure he has dealt with way weirder stuff
normally I would keep this a secret but
he is actually a superhero!
no subject
Really? I didn't know that. [Beat. Facial shrug.] Then again, I don't know much about most people here yet, honestly.
no subject
me either
although to be fair
the colony is so big and there's so few of us here
you could easily go days without seeing another human being
so it's no wonder really
no subject
Maybe we should change that, actually... maybe make some sort of group meeting of sorts at some sort of mutually agreed upon interval. Weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, whatever... [He's sort of had a bit of time outside of that cage he'd been stuck in to start trying to gain some footing around here and it all reminds him so much of The Glades, apparently it's got him slipping back into that second-in-command role to Alby's leader one.
There's the teeniest little blink-and-you'd-miss-it flicker in his expression at the thought of his old friend. Alby deserved so much better than he got.]
no subject
or at least some kind of meet and greet event

if we threw it now we'd have to invite the mushrooms
otherwise they'd be like
"why didn't you invite me? I'm a fun gi"

but I will continue to take it as a compliment :)
