Casey nods and pops the pill into her mouth right as Max's voice draws everyone's attention.
"Good, well, not sure what to call you. Who cares, good job!" Max claps to celebrate the dog anomaly returning with a pair of melted and smoldering ice picks. "If I counted that correctly, that was 1 minute and 30 seconds!"
The anomaly is panting and huffing, sending white goo-like slobber onto the ground below. It hisses and crackles upon contact. <span class="mu-s">"T-tired...b-but fun. Fun. Fun. Happy!"</span>
"Well! You're getting your treat. I'm sure my two excellent servants will help you. It seems like the doctor is very busy, after all." Max gestures
Casey's eyes are immediately awashed in a crimson and grey haze as the drug finally hits. Her body suddenly locks up once it fully washes over her. She regains her senses as quickly as she lost them but she seems different yet at the same time not.
It's more like whatever makes up her spirit has been shifted sideways.
CASEY'S NEW BOONS AND BANES. She'll regain her old BOONS/BANES when the drug wears off, which won't take long.
[HAND OF CORPORATE LOVE] REPLACES OPTIMISTIC SPIRIT. The Company has it figured out. Trust them to know what's best for you. Casey now passively heals FLESH to you and other allies.
[ALL IN THE MANUAL] REPLACES CORPORATE DOUBLESPEAK. The manual knows all! Teach those around you how to best face life's problems! Casey passively lowers the DCs of all TALENT, COGNIZANCE, FLESH and RESTRAINT checks by 4.
[QUEEN BEE MINDSET] Hasn't changed. Mostly because it does nothing yet.
[BUGMEAT] Replaces PARADIGM PERSAUDER and MERCURIAL. Very modern! Very utilitarian! Optimal shape! It's Casey! Casey is immune to the effects of PARADIGMS, ANOMALIES, SHIFTers and ESOTERIC DAMAGE. This includes positive effects and allied powers.
She opens her arms out towards the anomaly. "I'm here for you. You earned a reward, did you not? For all hard workers must benefit from their rewards, yes yes, and you are a hard worker indeed." She's cognizant but her voice sounds wonky and slow like a poorly recorded VHS tape.
The anomaly abruptly lunges at Casey but it's immediately stopped by Max whistling at it. It stops mid-lunge the moment it hears Max's command. "Uh nuh. Be gentle with her. She's not as big as you, you gotta remember that!"
<span class="mu-s">"Ngh."</span> The anomaly shifts slowly over to Casey. It loosely leans against Casey. Acidic goo spills all over Casey's body but she doesn't care. She wraps her arms around and gives the gooey dog anomaly a hug.
[HAND OF CORPORATE LOVE] "it's okay." The acidic goo still burns at her, she's not immune to that it seems, but she braces through the pain. "we can put anything we put our minds too hello hi =)" Her voice is artificial, plastic, but equally warm and loving.
<span class="mu-s">"W-warm. P-pressure. Don't. Remember."</span>
"of course you dont =)"
"a meanie hurt you didn't he ;("
"we are not like him we are your friends =)"
<span class="mu-s">"W-won't. Hurt me?"</span>
"do you want to hear a story :?"
