NOOOOOoooooooooooooo...!!!

A virus living inside a human body? That's really not much harder to believe than a cursed, mechanical soul that wears a loved one's skin. And as for super soldiers... that's close, actually. Not quite as literal as in Alex' world, but close enough.

She just barely catches his sudden fit from the corner of her eye, and in some ways it's so familiar she almost doesn't comment— but he isn't from her world, so God only knows if it's at all normal for him. Lenalee comes to a stop, heart suddenly pounding. This man is completely different than what she knows. The things he can do, the way he behaves...

"Are you all right?" she says, voice muffled by the cloth covering her mouth and nose. But then he's recovering, and all that's left to indicate that anything had happened at all is her flickering pulse and a slight hoarseness to his voice. She hesitates, then tries to gloss over her question (her own voice a little shaky now) with, "—Where do they keep hospital records?"

No, Alex. She doesn't know. Paperwork isn't exactly... neatly organized in the Order.
