[Adam grabs a first-aid kit and slips out of Architecture. It's been ages since he last wore shoes; this pair is brand new, and he's not used to wearing them, but somehow he manages to be quiet enough to go unnoticed.]

[He cuts through Records, making sure to stay off the workfloor, and rushes into the Da'at room.]

[And what Adam sees in there - ]

A-Adino?

[That's a lot of blood.]

[The door rattles, and then opens slowly.]

[Adam-37(?) is standing in the doorway, looking disheveled and panicked. Eyes wide, he stares into the room. He looks about ready to bolt...]

NoNoNoNoNoNo

-@73-mada

[!!! Adam pauses his pacing. Abram and Benjamin look up from where they were talking in low tones.]

Are you okay?

[alternative-architecture]

[Adam is Looking at Adino. The expression on his face seems mostly positive, strangely enough... it's probably because Adino is too short to really pass as him.]

You like my hair? :o

[ @73-mada ]

[alternative-architecture]

[Adino gives in. He needs help.]

AdamHelpHurtsSorry

What happened? Where are you? D:

[alternative-architecture]

[Adam pings Miho's communicator.]

If you're worried about Adino, he's here in Architecture with us.

[Ignorance is bliss.]

[ @stnega-sprocl ]

[alternative-architecture]

[While Adam isn't looking, Adino pulls something out of his pocket and sticks it in his hair. He's very careful as he does this, not tugging on Adam's hair at all.]

[Seems like it's an EGO gift of some sorts... It's a big white bow.]

[EGO GIFT OBTAINED: Seeing Double. +2 HP, +2 SP. Helmet slot]

[Adam doesn't notice the bow, except for a slight wave of confidence that he ascribes to general contentment.]

[He is, indeed, very contented.]

[alternative-architecture]

hey, adinos getting some pretty concerning responses from an unlisted blog, might wanna check that out? it might be a lead

[Adam sends an ask to Adino with instructions for blocking, then clicks on the link to the blog and starts reading.]

[alternative-architecture]

Hm. I'm not sure if "brothers" is quite the right word, but it's close enough, so yes?

He looks like youSo I look like youIt's confusing?It's confusing?It's confusing?I thought he would be the only one to look like thatBut he was not? - 37

Multiple people can look like each other, especially if they're related genetically like Adam-37 and I are. :O

[Snipped from here.]

Two things you can smell?

[The door rattles, and then opens slowly.]

The - the Records infirmary is - it's closest...

[Adam moves that way, slowly enough to accommodate Adino.]

[Adam beams back. He's so glad Adino is feeling better.]

[Adam is initially surprised, but hugs back.]

You don't have to be anything you don't want to. I promise.

[The others hover in worry.]

[The door rattles, and then opens slowly.]

What happened? Where are you? D:

[alternative-architecture]

[Adam nods encouragingly.]

That works!

This might be a hard one, so it's fine if you don't have an answer. Is there anything you can taste?

[The door rattles, and then opens slowly.]

It's not your fault, I promise. And it's no trouble.

[Abram speaks up.]

Can - can I ask what happened?

[The door rattles, and then opens slowly.]
