You know you’re having a bad day when your best option is to let an alien velociraptor poke around in your brain, but there doesn’t really seem to be much else for it.
You lie back down on the table and sigh. “Figure out what you can, Doc.”
“Medic,” Lydia says to Vireen, “we need to requisition a a portable neurostimulator. Can you take care of that, please?”
Rovvak looks up abruptly from the display she was studying. “When you in charge?” she asks, slipping back into mangled Tradespeak.
“I’m supposed to stay—” Vireen protests weakly.
“You’re deeply involved in this mess now,” Lydia says. “Work with me, or this will go badly for you.”
“This is MY lab,” protests Doctor Rovvak. “I tell instructions.”
“Stay focused on the problem at hand, Doctor,” Lydia says quietly. “If Milo’s right, we need to act quickly.”
Vireen stops in the doorway and looks back at you.

You might have noticed that we’ve got an awesome new logo for the site. It’s by our designer friend Kate Willaert, who some readers might also know from her game review site, Critical Hit!.
For some reason the newest page isn’t showing up on Google Reader or Twitter automatically. I’m not really sure what’s going on with this yet, but it’s affecting everything that pulls from either of the site’s two Atom feeds.
We’ll see if this news item shows up or not.
I’ll probably continue to be slower updating than usual for a while; I’ve been traveling and am working in Buenos Aires this week. I return home on Sunday, so I should be able to get back to posting more frequently then.
