I got injured at work, nothing bad, but since I'm suffering, let's make someone else suffer with me.
Mesmer Jr.'s day has been going well. Almost too well. She woke up without a headache after being made to go to sleep at a reasonable time by Vertin. She is feeling unusually refreshed. She brushed her teeth, got dressed and ready for the day. After a quick once over to make sure everything was in order, she opens her room door and gets hit in the face by a duck.
Mesmer Jr wakes up one morning and everyone in the suitcase but her is an Udimo. For a week at shortest, a month at longest. I think the little Ezra doll would try and help her, but not having fingers and being very short makes it difficult.
How is she doing? Have fun!
Oh God what is your deal with putting Mesmer Jr in situations/silly
I couldn't make her suffer with you but I'll make her suffer for you 😞🙏
Mesmer Jr can't handle the absolute zoo this damn suitcase became. Vertin is nowhere to be seen, her little companion puppy is a literal puppy that tries to help her but ends up being more messy than helpful.
Thankfully, she has little Ezra to manage with simpler things like uh... And ahm... And yeah!
At the beginning, Mesmer wanted to leave the suitcase and make this someone else's problem, but you learn soon enough that being the only person in a suitcase with things that require food, water and proper care means that you have to be the provider or watch a fucking bear try to cook a hamburger.
She gave seeds to the birds, receiving a long series of insults in duck language by a well known duckling. Served meat to the animals that were carnivore. Offered leaves and greens to those that didn't want meat and gave the void (Voyager) a sacrifice (MedPoc because it bit her hand)
And the whole day was HELL. Trying to get Jessica not to kidnap Blonney took years of her life, X and MedPoc used their abilities to annoy her further, Anjo desperately whined for food, Sotheby began to pick fights with others because she had horns now.
Basically babysitting a mess of a suitcase.
Ezra, like the kind hearted lil doll he is, tried his best to be of help, but the birds found him and Duncan to be the perfect thing to perch on.
Some were merciful enough to leave Mesmer to her devices. Like Druvis III, Tooth Fairy and some other fellows who could take care of themselves.
And Mesmer still had to care for Cristallo (she's not a vet but she has to do something), keep Isolde away from Kakania which proved to be a harder task than it seems, make sure Windsong didn't drown by following a fish into the water, keeping 37 from trying to bully any fish Arcanists because girl is abusive in dolphin mode, making sure that An-An Lee didn't destroy anything in the suitcase...
She's slowly going insane she's sure of it. Little Ezra there tries to comfort her alongside Sonetto and Matilda's pitiful attempt at consolation (giving her a seed).
By the time everyone is back to normal, Mesmer Jr bolted out of the suitcase and people saw her only a month later.

A human using a wand?
So, there's a lot of especulation about how Schneider could have possibly used arcanum while being a human, and after the latests chapters I think we got some more clues.
First of, Greta Hofmann, who was (mostly) human and couldn't use arcanum normally, could use arcanum-enhanced bullets developed by Laplace by simply shooting her gun. These bullets could also have different effects, like the "sleeping bullets" she tried to hit Heinrich with. Now, while this is not new in r1999 (see Horropedia, Pavia and Tennant, for example), it's the first time we saw a human use an arcanum-enhanced weapon.
Then, we see in chapter 7 and Semmelweis' story that Laplace often records incantations/rituals in disks or other such materials for their personnel to use. This is useful, not only for humans, but also arcanists whose capabilities aren't enough to cast certain rituals, allowing pretty much anyone to use the arcane skills that are made into these devices.
This led the fandom to especulate that Schneider being able to cast arcane skills wasn't that much of a mystery; it was staring at us in plain sight. Druvis simply modified her guns, allowing her to shoot bullets with different effects, like Greta did, right? Well... not entirely.
While it's true that Druvis modified her guns, this on itself doesn't explain how Schneider was able to cast other, more complex arcane rituals, like the teleportation ritual, or conjuring up a ball of light that led her men through the maze under the Walden.
Not to mention, Vertin could literally "feel" Schneider casting an arcane skill, like she often does when other arcanists cast spells as well (remember, this is Vertin's signature superpower, so to speak), which wouldn't be possible if she was using something similar to the Foundation's soft disks, since the human who uses them isn't actually casting the incantation, but merely using a pre-recorded incantation. You can think of it as the difference between playing the piano and using a radio to play the recording of a piano. Completly different, right?
So... was Schneider actually a human who could cast arcane skills like arcanist do? Well... yeah. The game actually shows it to us, plain as day.
That's right, in Schneider's second incantation card we can actually see her holding a wand. Not only that, but when she uses this attack in-battle, we see her replacing her guns for a wand, and using it instead. It's a blink-and-miss moment, especially if you're playing at increased speed, but it's there nonetheless.
So... there's our answer. Schneider is a human who can use arcanum. Somehow. And the reason hasn't yet been explained to us. Or... has it?
According to this post in reddit, in the beta version Schneider was actually an "infected" in the Atlas. Now, at that point in time we didn't know what an infected even was, but now we have Semmelweis as the first infected, along with the explanation as to what an infected even is; a person who was bitten by a Beyond (vampire) and is suffering a permanent transformation which very few arcanist survive (no humans on record).
It's also important to note that in one of the narrator trails in ch1, he mentions that Schneider just "recovered from a serious illness". This doesn't necessarily refer to the Beyond decease, but could be a subtle nod.
Also, we know Semmelweis goes from being unable to cast any arcane skills to actually being pretty good at it once she completes her transformation, so that could be the explanation for Schneider's arcanist-like abilities... but would also mean her true nature didn't really change, as she still faded away in the storm for being human.
So anyways, what do you think? Am I going crazy? hahaha.
(Please Bluepoch make Schneider playable and give us answers or I'll keep making up dumb theories).

considering that the girl with the blue flower is always referred to as just that-- a girl (never woman or young woman), and the artist once refers to her as "a girl that young", AND she's meant to resemble the sister in her youth, those theories and interpretations that the artist fell in love with her make me very uncomfortable
