#going to the doc tomorrow

[ohsilverplease]

Me with a slight sore throat and the sniffles: it’s probably just allergies!

Me with the chills taking multiple showers a day to get warm: temperature just dropped this week!

Me wearing a mask into the office every day: probably nothing, just in case!

Me today, with the sorest throat and conjunctivitis in both eyes: guess I should have just taken a couple fuckin’ days off to rest.

[bum-scum]

Off to get tested for thr C word....

Great.

AA: i believed the fragment was gibberish from a lunatic AA: after completing his rampage through our session

I guess Gamzee’s rampage wasn’t a one-off, then. He’s turned to murder in other timelines, in what appear to be substantially different circumstances.

Is this LOPAH, or Alternia? Just how early can Gamzee snap?

Edit: She does say he rampaged through the troll session, so I'm assuming the former, given that Karkat was the first one to Enter.

AA: and discovered the text which the code was recorded in AA: i decided to return to the alpha timeline with the text […] AA: in the alpha timeline this text was destroyed AA: in an explosion caused by a computer virus AA: this explosion did not take place on my timeline AA: i identified this event as the difference prompting the offshoot

Why would Karkat’s virus affect Gamzee, though? As far as I can tell, its only material effect was to kill the lusi, and I don't see why that'd cause him to snap.

...hmm. Let's see if we can work this out, actually.

OK. In this hypothetical timeline, Goatdad didn’t die at sea. He would have returned to Gamzee’s hive, and, ...potentially done something that caused him to snap early, I guess. But what?

It is still piping hot but you can't help yourself. You sneak a taste of the SOPOR SLIME PIE. You aren't supposed to eat that slime. It does funny things to a troll's head. But you were never taught that on account of a lousy upbringing. Your custodian was always out to sea.

...aww, man.

Gamzee was on the slime because Goatdad was an absent father. Maybe, in this world without the curse, Goatdad returned to his hive, decided to be a parent for once, and cut him off.

It fits extremely well, but I really don't want to dwell on the possibility. It would mean that this Gamzee became a killer because someone cared for him - and that his first victim was probably the old goat.

‘Hey, that’s a weird colour palette. Why did he....

...oh.’

This is.... I don't know what to call this. Gamzee took out all of his team's heavy hitters, completely solo. He killed Sollux, he killed Kanaya, he killed Vriska...

How? How is this guy so ridiculously fucking dangerous?

I see Snowman w-

I’ve been telling my roaches, before I come in the kitchen, ‘I’m not feeling well and I’m not in the mood so please don’t come out while I’m in here’ and they have stayed hidden for three days. Very polite.

At long last here’s CHAPTER 9

First struggles with the increasing severity of his nightmares, and disturbing knowledge come to light.

Hey y'all! Weird question time, not really a medical question, more a question about doctors office response times? Below a read more in case you want to skip it:

So, last week I may or may not have passed out*, in a way different to the times I may or may not (almost definitely have) passed out before, because this time my blood pressure was not low and my heart rate was not high. I am someone with a long history of cardiac-adjacent issues, endocrine and/or brain related issues, and neurological issues**. I called my primary care doctor early afternoon on Wednesday and did not hear back from his office until after 5pm on Thursday, though the very helpful nurse I spoke to at the front desk squeezed me in for an appointment with a different doc at the same location on Thursday morning. I called my neurologist at the same time Wednesday, and I did not hear back from their office until today, the following Monday. They also were not calling to schedule an appointment. They were calling to see if I'd gotten my referral to an ENT that they send in five months ago, and mentioned they'd gotten my message that I'd "had an incident". I had to get transferred to someone else and say "I saw my primary care doctor already because you did not return my messages and I'd passed out. He did some bloodwork that all turned up normal and told me to talk to my neurologist" before they even considered getting me an appointment (which they did not do! They said they'd call me back tomorrow!) The question: Is that an unreasonable response time? It feels like an unreasonable response time to me, from both my PCP and my neurologist, honestly. Like, the nurse at the PCP's facility got me in to see another doctor, but my PCP didn't know and didn't respond for over a day, and my neurologist took five days and wouldn't schedule an appointment. I suspect the combo of past history of heart and neurological issues and passing out for the first time in years should be the sort of thing that rings alarm bells, right? *when I felt like I was going to fall down if I did not immediately lie down, I chose to lie down and had my eyes closed while lying down and I think I lost time? hard to tell though **I have tachycardia but it's never ever out of rhythm, so technically I don't have heart issues? The tachycardia tends to alarm new doctors though, like I get an express pass to an EKG immediately at the ER. The endocrine and/or brain issue is the salt wasting syndrome. Might be endocrine! Might be brain damage! Hard to tell! Thought it was endocrine for a long time but there's overlap. The neurological issues are migraines and brain fog.
