Oh, my working theory is they're memory addled or taking something. More logical than them literally being human swords. But if they prove me wrong I'd be interested to see how it all works.

[...wait wait wait.]

You think they've been on a bad drug trip for days? Wouldn't it have worked its way out of their system by now if they aren't still consuming it? [Shiraishi might normally have a point but he's stuck on "where are they getting these drugs".]

We're all still feeling nauseous, aren't we?

True. But then that means, what, the rest of us are maybe hallucinating other stuff?

Potentially. But it could be other effects.

Not everyone gets the same side effects of medication, and if they're feeding us something to keep us... I'm not sure, docile? Controllable? It's possible that nausea is a common side effect, and hallucinations are a rarer one.

[He's right. That's the worst part, Shiraishi could be absolutely right about that.]

Dick and I were thinking there's something transferring in the air we aren't seeing. If it's calibrated to a certain potency in each of our rooms, it would change us wouldn't it?

Higher doses, stronger side effects.

[ It's a good thought. ]

We also don't know what's in the food. We can't refuse to eat, especially if we're here for the long run, but they're serving us a buffet. Everyone's eating different things, in different quantities.

Pinning it down would be difficult. Especially with nothing to test the food for drugs.

If you wanted to test the ingredients that's a start, but we don't exactly have a forensics team on-hand. There's only so much we can check on our own.

Like I said, pinning it down would be difficult.

If we could find a way to save samples of the food -- stuff that wouldn't go off so easily we might something to test it with later. If we can get other rooms open, or access to other floors. Bit of a stretch though.

All of the rooms have fridges. That'll buy us some time if that's a step we want to take.
