you're what happens when two substances collide :: OPEN

Who: Sebastian LeMat and YOU.
What & Where: Various places about town: Nazca's boat, Hellsing's infirmary, etc.
When: Throughout the third week of Velldaren
Notes: If you want to set something up, let me know!

For the sake of safety and common sense Sebastian has been relatively quiet on the network, preferring to communicate via voice or text only, but that hasn't stopped him from making a few general appointments for others in his cohort and throughout the city. Most of his work for strangers has been in and around Sobek Croix, doing his part to keep Hellsing in the canton's good graces during the current blood shortage. At the guildhall itself, he's been working on getting the building ready for winter -- finishing windows, checking the roof for leaks (again), and making sure there will be enough room to dry their crop of tobacco.

McCoy stops recording, then hesitantly moves, not coming closer, but as though he's about to crouch. He glances at LeMat. "If I try and scan this thing, is it gonna rip my throat open?"

"She could walk through you and you wouldn't feel a thing." The manticore stretches and then jumps onto a nearby table to preen. "Although, I know that for wizards, if you touch another's patronus you might see flashes of the memory that created it. I don't know what it would do for you."

"I'm not touching it." Hesitantly, he taps the tricorder screen to start recording again, then holds it out to start scanning the ... thing. Whatever the hell it is. The tricorder is going crazy again, spiking with energy and impulses like he's never seen, and he keeps a close eye on it to make sure it's not going to explode.

"Are you getting anything useful out of this?" At the very least, it should help convince McCoy that magic is very real and while his technology might not be able t measure it, it must be quantifiable in some way. Perhaps he'll be able to set his tricorder to scan for a specific sort of crazy-pattern and that way he'll know a patient has been magically afflicted?

"I have," McCoy returns, "no clue. I think I am, but I'll need to sit down and analyze these one by one to get a better idea of what the hell I'm actually looking at. I've never seen readings like this before."

"If you want me to come back and recast, I can do that for you. I think, well, in theory that should help eliminate a few variables?" Science is not Sebastian's strong suit, but he has a talent for intuitive leaps of understanding.

McCoy nodded, tapping the tricorder to stop recording as he stepped away from the manticore, still eying it uncertainly, as though he expected it to rip his throat out at the slightest provocation. "Might help. You okay with that?"
