I can't just recklessly treat you like just some test subject! [ he's starting to wonder what kind of background you've lived through, ludger. ] I'd want to make sure it was safe before giving it to a person, at the very least.
[ ah, things got a little crossed somewhere. guess he wasn't clear enough! ]
I didn't mean you needed to test the treatments on me - you need uncontaminated samples, right? I meant that if I progress to a point you think is on the borderline of transforming, I'd want you to give me your current formula. And then if I did transform, I'd want you to give me a second dose.
I hope that it won't come to that. I don't like using my inventions to hurt people. [ ... ] However, having access to uncontaminated samples is invaluable.
I would never ask more from you than you'd be willing to give.
[ what about those who have already died? well. that's not his realm here. ]
A blood sample will do for now. I'm not sure if that substance can be found somewhere so simply, but it's been where I've had the most luck when creating treatments.
and thank you ludger for making things easier for him because he'll get to work immediately and pull out all of the necessary supplies. nothing fancy—a needle, vial, a cleaning pad, and a bandage. ]
Are you asking about here or what has been my best source previously?
[ we can always assume this when it comes to rp because yeah. anyway, fran's an expert at this sort of thing so it won't take more than a few short moments before he gets everything he needs. ]
I haven't been able to find a suitable sample here until you all arrived.
[ make of that as you will. ]
...as for back home, it wasn't too difficult. [ ... ] Many infected had it.
[ oh so F(ran)oxglove's sample taking doesn't trigger the weekly ouchies? incredible. puppet rights.
Ludger does the whole song and dance, pressing the gauze against the crook if his elbow as he watches Foxglove putter around. until they had arrived, huh...? ]
Desires sure work in strange ways.
[ were they coincidentally coinciding desires though? or... ]
Well, let's hard to make sure it doesn't get to that point, Foxglove. I'll be in your care.
It certainly does. Perhaps not always this strange.
[ whether or not ludger catches that and whether fran meant to drop it are two different things but regardless, he'll continue on with this conversation with a bit of a smile. ]
I'll do my best to make sure it won't be, and you can call Victor or Fran—unless you're more comfortable with "Foxglove".
[ HE'S NOT THAT VICTOR!!! DON'T BE CREEPY AT HIM!!!! and fran will do his best to just accept what he saw and say nothing else about it. it's fine. (those WILL go in his doctor's notes. ]
It's nice to mee you properly, Ludger.
[ but yes, moving on.. ]
And you can stop by as frequently as you want. I won't mind the company.

I'm in the process of creating a new formula using samples that I've been able to gather here but none that I feel comfortable trying on anyone.
no subject
Could I be a source of samples for you?
no subject
Source in which way?
no subject
[ he thinks it would be. he's been around Jude and Julius enough to know that more data is always better. ]

[ he's already given everything for his one. and- his wish-
... well. Elle would understand, wouldn't she? she was so much braver than him. even when she was afraid. ]
So? What do you need from me?

at the name "Victor". ]
... It's nice to meet you, again, Fran.
[ moving on!! ]
How often should I come by?

It's nice to mee you properly, Ludger.

no subject
I wouldn't want to distract you too much.
[ which means he's going to drop by at least every other day ]
looks at how that tag was in shambles...oh well.
I'm not sure what you'd have plans on doing to distract me.
[ fran's good at mulitasking!! ]
it's OK..... I forgive you......
Maybe the cat urges will return.
[ maybe he'll make Fran eat on a regular schedule ]
