She is able to resist sticking her hand in the water.



The stuffy feeling shifts. She feels the following urges, pretty much in order:


  • scratch her nose
  • rub her face on the floor
  • take a nap
  • yell
  • attack someone nearby
She may resist all that she chooses to, and take other actions as well.

She'll do the nose scratch but try to resist the others, and leave the bathroom (since you said 'people' I'm wondering if this is a mixed-gender bathroom?)

Going to return to the waiting line and try to guide some more people into it who have strayed.

The bathroom is all female.



As she walks back to the line, she feels all sorts of urges to do random things. Then, all at once, the stuffy feeling vanishes, and she stops getting the urges.



She continues to herd people back into the waiting line. While the stuffiness has left her, she feels it in the people she is trying to get back.



Its quite a bit of work to keep things working smoothly, and she keeps busy shepherding people around for at least half an hour, if not more.

"So I was wondering SAU, are you keeping track of how long I am working so you can supply it as a reference for more interesting work later on?"

Heera: "Everything is tracked as a matter of course. I can access the your records for you. You are currently employed at the L0 rate"


Olive is picking up quickly not only keeping people in line, but how to get them into and out of the chair for testing quickly.



And that's all they seem to be doing. Running tests on people.


Olive thinks its been at least hours since she started. She doesn't feel fatigued yet, but she can tell the others are exhausted.

"Heera once these people are tested, is there any help needed in getting them back to their bunks for sleeping?"

note: The people getting tired are the medical team.

*approaches the most tired-looking member of the medical team*

"You look tired, do you need some help so you could take a break?" (does she know what coffee is?)

She does know what coffee is.



Kuse looks the most tired.



"I've already got you doing everything I can. We... We should take a rest though. I've been working at full speed for 6 hours. That isn't a good idea for figuring out what's going on. We're analyzing people, not treating them. Yes, we should take a short breather."


She turns back to work.



The list of folks Olive is working with pops up the item "Break" at the bottom of the list.

(narrating to herself) "I guess this means I get a break when I'm done dealing with these folks?" *continues to do so*
