Event: No Such Thing; Part Three

No Such Thing

During the afternoon of day 403, infected characters begin falling into comas. It doesn't happen all at once--it starts with confusion, slurred speech, a breaking apart of thoughts. You're aware enough of what's happening to wonder what's wrong with you. Maybe it's slow enough for you to arrange things over the network, if your still-malfunctioning tablet cooperates. Still, by evening, every infected character is in a coma.

QUESTIONS

[jumpthegun]

For the characters who remain alive, awake, alert, enthusiastic, does scanning the infected/comatose with the Eye apps produce the same transparency as before? Or is it more/less pronounced?

[snowblindmods]

It's more pronounced.

[sharktrash]

completely hypothetically, does the coma prevent people from resisting being murdered as before is it free reign now

[snowblindmods]

If it's attempted, the body will be manipulated to fight back. The character is completely comatose while this happens--it's like they're a puppet.

oh my god

[thewarningafter]

Oh for fuck's sake just have a link

[0thingsonmymind]

If a puppeted comatose player beats the crap out of fights Squallo and Brian films it with both his camera and his tablet are the videos different at all? Or show anything weird?

[snowblindmods]

They don't show anything weirder than what's actually happening.

[ninjainviolet]

Would the one controlling them know what weapons they have? Like say a steak knife or scalpel?

Asking for a friend...

[snowblindmods]

Yes.

[thewarningafter]

...Really belatedly, are infected characters' pets also affected? I realize this as Squalo's attacking comatose Stephen and I belatedly remembered that his cloak would normally defend him.

[snowblindmods]

If the pet is connected to their owner's brain in a way that allows their owner to change the pet's behavior, then yes. Otherwise, pets are left to their own devices.

...I’m going to interpret that as a yes for cloak coma, how do these two even function, we don’t know, fucking magic
