Eye doctor merritt island
What to say or ask the Ophthalmologist to help diagnose this mystery condition?
2023.06.07 10:27 Carter5ive What to say or ask the Ophthalmologist to help diagnose this mystery condition?
Been trying to get a diagnosis for a condition that's been progressing over the past few years. Been bounced between multiple optometrists and ophthalmologists who can't figure it out. All doctors believe it is refractive but can't say what it is or what to do. The primary optometrist is very confident in his script. Finally been referred to see the most senior one available. It's my last hope, so I'm wondering what I as the patient can say or ask to help the doctor solve this?
Case details below...
Started age 45 and has progressed through age 50. Had some dry eye symptoms age 45 but cleared up with compress and eye drops.
Always had better than 20/20 with eyeglasses until this started. Prescription stable for 30 years, -4.50 OD/OS, with astigmatism (cyl?) values changes a bit from year to year. Presbyopia set in over age 45-50 currently +2.50. Pterygiums on the less common side of each iris.
The symptom is that in the center of vision, high contrast things are blurry, and the blurriness seems to be caused by an offset ghost image that is a double vision of whatever detail I'm looking at, but sort of greyed out. It's like there's an 'extra' astigmatism happening. The offset can be above/below or to the side or both. The offset can be different for each eye, which apparently means this is monocular (?) and rare.
The effect is most pronounced with text or lights. So black text on white, white text on black, a point of light in the dark, that sort of thing. Just looking at a regular daylit "scene", the effect isn't bothersome. But anything with text, movie credits, street signs, lights, high contrast items, those are all blurry and bothersome.
Eye chart becomes difficult, though I can puzzle it out by trying to isolate the "main" image from the lighter double vision version or deduce was is being blurred.
Strabismus-type testing was done but deemed somewhat irrelevant because of the monocular double vision. However the tester noted that 1 out of 3 pairs of eye "muscles" seemed to be almost not responding because I can't easily focus on close objects.
Diagnostic glasses made of pinholes didn't seem to help, however when I just try looking through a single pinhole at home, it seems like it might (?) be better.
The condition never goes away, but is noticeably worse if I or my eyes are tired.
Hard contact lenses were tested to eliminate any issue of eye surface being uneven (or something like that?) with no improvement.
Lots of scans of cornea, retina, etc. Cornea apparently thick and healthy enough. Perhaps the beginning of early cataract. Supposedly not keratoconus.
A special eye trace wave scan (?) was done with 256 laser points which determined some possible minor aberration starting but supposedly too slight to explain this.
This specialist is basically the last resort in figuring out this condition and whether I can do anything to stop the progression.
So I want to know what to say or ask to help give the doctor the best chance to solve this.

2023.06.07 10:13 lyndon85 Nightbreed (1990) dir. Clive Barker - the Alternative Cut
This is a project I've been working on a while and originally posted about on
originaltrilogy.com (
https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Nightbreed-The-Alternative-Cut-Released/id/92433) but it's got to the point where I'd love for some people to see it and feed back.
In short, my goal was to make a version of the film closer to what could have been released had the studio had faith in Barker's vision, using the Director's cut, theatrical cut and Ultimate Cabal Cut. As well as restoring cut scenes I've removed about 15 minutes filmed in the reshoots and as such my cut is just short of 2 hours.
This cut is currently listed on The Fanedit Network.
The main changes are as follows:
- After the titles and the dream sequence, shot on Boone’s eyes opening quickly cut to black before cutting to garage scene - scene in bed with Lori cut.
- Lori returning home and calling Boone’s voice mail is now after the Rickman’s murders.
- Scene with Detective Joyce at crime scene restored.
- Additional optical effect and audio added to the Boone’s hallucinations.
- Lori’s musical number is edited down for pacing, footage of her fighting through crowd to get to Boone restored.
- Examination by doctor is extended.
- Decker’s ‘evil lair’ is removed.
- Lori’s ‘vision’ of Boone from DC is edited down to a brief transition shot of her packing a suitcase.
- After Lori meets Sheryl-Ann, ‘baptism’ scene is removed.
- Scene added of Lori in bed of motel and ‘vision’ of Boone at window is added from earlier cut scene.
- Scene of Lori finding Babette is re-edited so closer to the original script.
- Discussion between Decker and Lori when he reveals himself slightly extended
- Boone’s argument with Lylesberg and following fistfight are removed.
- Argument between Boone and Lylesberg after Lori rescued is extended.
- New scene created where Boone discovers the wall of prophecy.
- Lori’s exploration of Midian reordered as per script and slightly extended.
- Decker’s phone call and murder of attendant removed.
- After Boone and Lori escape from Midian, Decker’s murder of hotel receptionist removed.
- Scene of Babette contacting Lori telepathically restored. This cuts with the exploration of Midian by the police.
- Ohnaka’s death (sorry Simon Bamford, he still dies) and aftermath extended.
- As Rachel and Narcisse drive away from Midian, DC cuts very jarringly. Narcisse’s line “Why do we have to get him back?” restored from TC.
- Shot of Eigerman recruiting locals in Sheriffs’ office restored.
- Scene of Eigerman, Ashbury and Decker talking in car restored to full TC version (no idea why DC cut this down).
- Lori and Boone’s talk in the prison cell is extended.
- Scene restored of Joyce and Pettine talking outside Midian gates.
- Scene added of Ashbury exploring Midian and discovering a resident as explosives being laid.
- Joyce survives Decker’s attack.
- Final battle is reordered to try and better match shooting script.
- Boone's “brothers and sisters” line is replaced with Boone telling Lylesberg to release the Berserkers.
- Lylesberg is hit by debris, slowing his journey to do so.
- Scene with Boone giving Lylesberg a pep talk in tabernacle removed as result.
- Rachel rescuing Babette removed, she’s now picked up by wolf-man as Midian’s evacuated.
- As Berserkers are released by Boone, alternative shot used where Berserkers choose not to attack Boone (no jumping out their way and no “go get them boys”)
- Joyce now rescues Babette, meets with Boone and eventually returns her to Rachel.
All of the clips taken from the Ultimate Cabal Cut have been colour graded, as well as select shots from the Director's cut.

2023.06.07 09:51 Aryani0811 Unlucky day.
Nagpacheck up ako sa province namin. Meron akong hmo nung nirequest ung test na ggawin sakin at covered sya 6 months ago. Nung nasa testing area na ako sabi nung secretary kailangan ko daw bayaran yung eye test kasi hindi daw nakukuha ng doctor yung bayad sa provider for 1 year. So nagchange sila ng policy na cash dapat pag machine tests at consultation nlng ang covered ng hmo. Kasi inaapprove lng ng health card provider pero hindi daw binabayaran kay dok. Pero bakit parang kasalanan ko yon?? (Naming mga pasyente??)
Pumayag ako kasi kailangang kailangan ko yung eye test na yun at ang layo ng byahe ko. May mga kasabay akong patient na nagbayad din kasi hnd dn sila aware.
Tapos niresetahan ako ng gamot, nung bumili ako sa pharmacy walang nmn issue. Nakaseal yung binigay sakin na gamot. Paguwi ko sa bahay (1 hr travel time) mula dun sa clinic at pharmacy, nakita ko na kulang ng 6 pcs ung gamot ko pero buo yung charge sakin 😔 Di na ako makakabalik kasi mas mapapagastos ako sa pamasahe at malayo yung clinic.
150 dn yung nacharge sakin na excess. Malungkot lang ako. Yun lang. Kasi para sa hindi mayaman na katulad ko mahal yung 150 tapos kulang yung gamot. Nakakaiyak 🥲

2023.06.07 09:50 LawbirdBringer A new home, an introduction
So, I'm feeling an itch to try and do another crossover, this time with Frostpunk of all things. Thus, I am gonna try it. However I must state some thing. In this universe, as the date Frostpunk is set in. Or at least, The scenario "A new home" is happening in. Is somewhere during 1886 to 87. And the invention of the Nukes are during 1933. So for all intents and purposes, The Federation never stumbled upon humanity. At least, in a way they stumble upon them so much earlier than they should. This way, the feds never had a reason to exterminate the species in the first place. They didn't know they existed.
In terms of things regarding the Laws of New London. In this story, both Order and Faith are mixed together. The laws leading to Faith Keepers and The Temple are signed as well as the laws leading to Patrols and Foremen. As for Adaptation laws. Child Labor, Extended Shift, Soup, Extra rations for the Ill, Prosthetics, Ceremonial funerals, Public house. Nearly everything is researched.
For the purpose of the City, they haven't crossed the Line yet. But as any who played the game knows. The other side of the Line is so tempting. So very, very tempting.
Memory Transcript: Felix Hawthorn - Captain, leader of the last City
Date: [standardized human time]: Day 47
I can no longer see the lights out there. The Little fires and candles that lit up the city. The houses are all but covered in ice. The automatons are barely managing to work through the frigid winds. I turn to check the thermometer, even in my office. Built at the base of the Generator. The winds could reach me through the cracks in the walls. I blinked the ice out of my eyes as my vision locks with the thermometer. "Negative... 150 degrees..." I croaked out. Speaking aloud as I slowly turned to face the cloak on the wall.
To my bewilderment, and amazement. It was still turning away. Even when frost threatened to break it. Just a few more hours... just a few more...
I weakly lifted my arm, If I survive. It'll need amputating. I couldn't even feel the burning cold that was coating its' senses yesterday.
No guardsmen, Faith Keeper, or anyone has came to alert me to anything new... The infirmaries were the only buildings with enough warmth for people to at the very least. Feel chilly... Heh... "Should probably go to one..." I shiver at I felt Jack Frost threaten to tear my insides apart, speaking my thoughts won't help much... thinking things out will keep me focused...
I can't go to a Infirmary. We have no space for a new one to be built, nor do we have enough space for everyone... Thus, here I sit. In my chair. Watching the frost grow on my windows... I pray to myself, that whoever plunged us in this Frozen Hell. Would have mercy on the children and the elderly
As the glass in my window gets overgrown in ice and snow, I slowly close my eyes. And lay back. If this is the end of the human race as we know it... I rather sleep through it than see the results. I already wrote down notes so whomever finds me, will know what to do.
Sleep takes me, the frost won't win that battle at least. In the realms of Dreams. I'm sitting under the warm sun, my daughter and son playing in the grass not too far from me. My wife and I play a game, pointing out the different shapes the clouds made in the sky...
There is a pirate ship... a bird... that's a whale... "No, silly. That's a dolphin!" she'd laugh, I would respond with a chortle and a "Well, when you're right, you're right."
Such warmth... It's not even that warm in actuality, it is as average a day as any other... but I feel so... warm.

Memory Transcript: Jannim, Junior Venlil explorer
Date: [standardized human time]: Day 47
I shivered as the ship struggles to handle the temperature of this planet. Of course, sometimes a explorer will never come back. Be it through running into Predators, a error in the systems. Or just bad luck. But I never thought it would happen to me.
I boot up the terminal, thankful it still worked at least. "Explorer Log 21. Jannim. Horkle, our exterminator. Succumbed to the wounds he sustained during the crash. Day 7 after the crash, our pilot, Thalk and captain Fonn still haven't came in from checking on the damages the ship sustained when the storm hit us. Should've left when we noticed it but no... we just had to be heroes to a race we don't even know how to find." I panted as I glanced to the ships' walls. Thanks to the ship I'm alive, but how long will the power last? If Fonn and Thalk were still alive out there... I took a deep breath and continue the log "The captain and pilot left the ship sometime yesterday, to check on external damages and on the engines.-" A growl from the predator-like winds stole my attention away.
You survived a Arxur raid, and this is how you go out? Fearing for your life because of alien nature?
Yes, I was...
I take a bite out of my emergency rations, the blandness of it was much better than the chill in the air. "-I-if anyone finds this, leave this planet. Don't go looking for the natives, LEAVE. Before the scans broke down, it appears the planet is gonna undergo various storms similar to the one I am in. Leave at once and mark the planet down as a Deathtrap." I managed to keep myself from stuttering as I continued the message "The planet itself seems predatory, if this is anything to go by. I believe the natives of this planet will have succumbed to the frost during this storm. If not this one, then the next one. Or the one after that. However long it takes. Nothing should be able to survive such harsh winds in this temperature."
I stop myself, taking a few deep breaths, then another bite of my ration. "... If you're stationed near Venlil Prime. Please, find Pallhen. He's my father... tell him... I love him, and that I'm with Mother now." I choke past a tear as I looked to the systems. "Looks like the lights are about to fail, if the controls are anything to go by. Even if the pilot and captain return. We won't be able to even launch... Final log of Junior Explorer Jannim. Protector watch over us." I sighed before ending the Log. Left in silence, I listened to the predatory-storm beat on the ship. And watch Horkles' corpse lay on the medical table of our ship.
Silently counting the emergency rations, and what regular rations we have left. I would last around a week. Perhaps longer if I space my meals out... I think I'll just keep my meals as is, having to do with spacing meals out will just raise my hopes... Can't really have that if this storm lasts much longer.
I resumed eating my ration as I try to guess what the natives were like before this planet became a great, big, Temperature Predator. ------------------------------------------------ Memory Transcript: Felix Hawthorn - Captain, leader of the last City
Date: [standardized human time]: Day 48
"Captain!" A harsh voice awakens me, I use my one good arm to push the Faith Keepers' hands off me. He was apparently shaking me awake. "I'm up, I'm up!" I cried out as I sighed. I could see the relief worm its way onto Brother Collins' face. "Captain. We made it" he exclaimed as a mix of relief and pure joy radiates from his face to his voice. I grumbled in tired bewilderment as I turned to look at the thermometer.
"The storm has passed!" Collin cheered as I mentally froze at the sight on the Thermometer on the wall. -20 degrees Celsius... "Brother Collin! don't just stand there!" I cried out as I stand up with as much my renewed vigor would allow me. Causing the Faith-keeper to freeze in place. "Get out there, and tell the Guards to check the people, check them yourself it you have to. I need information on how our population handled this storm before we move forward!" I shout my orders at Collin, before grabbing my scarf off my neck. The ice still hasn't thawed off my scarf but... I fashion it into a sling for my arm "I'll be here after I have my arm amputated. Can't die now after all we went through." I allow a slight snicker escape my lips as I walk out the doors of my office and marched to the nearest infirmary. I could hear Collin run out of the office shortly after me and went off to find the guards, check families. Maybe both.
To my relief, the infirmary I first arrived at had a place open for me. Due to overcrowding, I was given a seat on the floor. And now... here I wait, listening to the doctors and nurses comfort and calm the ill and wounded. A few shot nasty glares at me... I'd like to see them try and prepare the city for a storm like that. I think I did pretty well... ---A few hours later.--- "So... we're at 307 able bodies, a hundred dead. Five missing. And finally, 246 amputees" I stated to the Head guardsmen, Matthew Williams. And there beside him stood high Priest Jenkins Anderson. "Moral will go up of course, everyone who survived the storm will feel nothing but joy for a while. But now we have to deal with reverting the city to what it was before the storm." I point to Matthew with my newly attached arm, the claw couldn't point fingers but it works when I need to grab something. I shift to point at Anderson as this was for them both to do. "Spread word that we are sending hunters back out and are putting the hothouses back up. I want scouts looking through the wilderness for anything they can find out there. We're not out of the storm yet" I declared as I brought my prosthetic back down. "Take stock of what rations we currently have, and spread them out as much as you can to the population. Send word to the Factory to start churning out Prosthetics... And when you have the scouts ready, inform me." Mister Williams saluted me before leaving the office, while Anderson stays there, watching me... "Did... the two come back?" I asked him, the silent shake of his head told me everything... "We don't have the bodies... find out the name of that father and his daughter, then make a pair of graves for them." Anderson nods and with a respectful bow, stepped out the door.
Finally left to my thoughts, I sat back in my chair. Staring at my desk. So many lives lost... I did what I could, but should I have done better? I could have done better... they are all dead because of me, how many of them were parents?... how many children?
I sat in silence as I start a prayer to the dead. Praying they forgive me for failing them. Praying again that they pass on to a place better than where we are. And finally, Praying that someone up there actually is listening...
Once my prayers were done, I looked to the reports brother Collin had placed on my desk during my time in the Infirmary. Apparently something had crashed during the start of the great storm. There was something flying out there... Going by the calculations the engineers did under Collins' request. The crash is relatively close by... a three day travel on foot, two via riding one of the automatons through the days and night.
I stand from my desk and walk out the door, Paying some mind to a picture of my wife on my way out. I had to be one of the scouts. For this at the very least... if there is some hope there is a survivor out there, if the father and his daughter is there... I have to be certain... we have enough automatons and able bodies to use the coal mines and coal thumpers. And after the storm, I do not believe we required the other laws. I'll leave the high priest in charge until my return. Matthews is a good man but... Anderson is the more compassionate of the two. He'll keep up the moral while I'm away.

This wasn't a lot, but hey. Hope you liked the introduction. If anyone has any questions regarding New London in the story, please feel free to ask. If anyone has anything to just say, feel free to share your thoughts.

2023.06.07 09:40 Pinto_RED_Window13 Black commander (tf2 freakshow) Vs Jin sakai (ghost of Tsushima)
[INT. ABANDONED WAREHOUSE - NIGHT]
JIN SAKAI, a samurai in his 30s, wearing a dark cloak and mask, sneaks into the warehouse. He sees a group of REPLICANTS, soldiers with glowing eyes and enhanced abilities, guarding a large crate.
JIN: (voice-over) I've tracked down the source of the dark magic that's been plaguing Tsushima. It's a strange crystal that belongs to a warlord named Commander Black. He's using it to create an army of Replicants, twisted versions of my fellow samurai. I have to stop him before he unleashes them on the island.
Jin takes out his bow and shoots an arrow at one of the Replicants, killing him instantly. The others notice and start looking around.
REPLICANT 1: What was that?
REPLICANT 2: We're under attack!
Jin quickly switches to his sword and charges at the Replicants, slashing and stabbing them with swift movements. He uses his ghost weapons to distract and disable them, throwing kunai, smoke bombs, and sticky bombs.
JIN: (voice-over) I've learned to fight like a ghost, using stealth and deception to strike fear into my enemies. It goes against the samurai code, but it's the only way to survive against these odds.
Jin manages to kill all the Replicants and reaches the crate. He opens it and sees the crystal inside, glowing with a sinister red light.
JIN: There it is. The source of all this evil.
He reaches for the crystal, but suddenly hears a loud roar from above. He looks up and sees COMMANDER BLACK, a BLK Soldier TF2 Freak in his 40s, wearing a black helmet and cape, flying towards him.
COMMANDER BLACK: Who dares to touch my crystal?
JIN: Who are you?
COMMANDER BLACK: I am Commander Black, the ruler of this world. And you are nothing but a bug that needs to be squashed.
Commander Black lands on the ground and blasts Jin with a dark magic beam from his hand. Jin dodges and rolls away.
JIN: (voice-over) This is the man who killed my uncle and countless others. He has powers beyond anything I've ever seen. But I can't let him win. I have to fight for Tsushima.
Jin stands up and faces Commander Black.
JIN: You're not a ruler. You're a tyrant. And I'm here to end your reign.
COMMANDER BLACK: Ha! You think you can stop me? You're just a pathetic samurai who doesn't know his place.
Commander Black charges at Jin with his sword drawn. Jin blocks with his own sword and they clash in a fierce duel.
JIN SAKAI and COMMANDER BLACK continue their duel, exchanging blows and parries. Jin tries to use his ghost weapons, but Commander Black deflects them with his dark magic.
COMMANDER BLACK: You're wasting your time with those toys. You can't hurt me with anything less than a nuke.
JIN: I don't need a nuke. I have my sword and my honor.
COMMANDER BLACK: Honor? What a joke. Honor is for weaklings who can't face the truth. The truth is that power is everything. And I have more power than you can imagine.
Commander Black unleashes a barrage of dark magic blasts at Jin, who barely dodges them. He gets hit by one and falls to the ground, wounded.
JIN: (voice-over) He's too strong. I can't keep up with him. But I can't give up. I have to find a way to destroy that crystal. It's the only chance to stop him.
Jin gets up and runs towards the crate, hoping to reach the crystal before Commander Black notices. But Commander Black sees him and flies after him.
COMMANDER BLACK: Where do you think you're going? You can't escape from me.
JIN: I'm not escaping. I'm ending this.
Jin reaches the crate and grabs the crystal, hoping to smash it on the ground. But before he can, Commander Black grabs his arm and squeezes it hard, making him drop the crystal.
COMMANDER BLACK: Nice try, but you're too late. This crystal is mine. And so is your life.
Commander Black lifts Jin up in the air and throws him across the warehouse, crashing into a wall. Jin falls to the floor, barely conscious.
JIN: (voice-over) This is it. I've failed. I've failed Tsushima. I've failed my uncle. I've failed myself.
Commander Black walks towards Jin, holding the crystal in his hand. He laughs maniacally.
COMMANDER BLACK: You see this? This is the source of my power. This is what makes me unstoppable. And this is what will make me the ruler of this world.
JIN: No... you can't...
COMMANDER BLACK: Oh, but I can. And I will. And you will be the first to witness my glory.
Commander Black raises the crystal above his head and prepares to strike Jin with it.
COMMANDER BLACK: Goodbye, samurai. Say hello to hell for me.
JIN: No...
Commander Black brings down the crystal on Jin's head, killing him instantly.
COMMANDER BLACK: Ha ha ha ha ha! Yes! Yes! I did it! I killed the Ghost of Tsushima!
He holds up the crystal and looks at it with admiration.
COMMANDER BLACK: And now, nothing can stop me. Nothing!
He looks at the camera and smiles wickedly.
COMMANDER BLACK: Nothing!

2023.06.07 09:34 AdministrationOk8223 How I went mute
I work at a big third party chemical company that produces stuff like nail polish remover, paint thinner, ect. One day a new company signed with us and was making their own “No smell” nail polish remover. They had lavender, lemon, cucumber, strawberry, and orange scented polish remover. I don’t know why but the orange one just smelled too good and I would catch myself sniffing it every time I walked past the vat. This day after hours when everyone left for home and all the vat were closed I went back and opened the orange one. God it smelled so good, I couldn’t get enough. I just stood there smelling it getting a little head high for what seemed like 2 min, but in real time it was 20 minutes. 20 minutes with my nose deep in the vat smelling this orange chemical. As soon as I seen he time I got out of there fast. On the drive home my throat felt a little itchy but I played it off as the crust winter air. I got home and went sound asleep with no problem, the nightmare began as soon as I opened my eyes. It felt like my throat was on fire, like a million fire ants were biting my esophagus. Trying to brush my teeth to sooth the pain but it made it worse. Nothing was helping so I had no choice but to go to the hospital. I barged into the emergency room clutching my throat in agony. The nurse asked me what’s the problem and when I tried to speak nothing came out but a painful squeak. The chilling realization hit me that I couldn’t speak, not even whisper. The nude checked my mouth and from the back of my throat was nothing but disgusting red and purple burns and dried blood. They threw me on a bed and I went straight to the OR. When I woke up a whole day had pasted without me even noticing. I was in surgery for 9 hours from chemical burns all the way from my nasal cavity down to the middle of my esophagus. Once again I tried to speak but nothing, not even a squeak this time. The doctor soon came in and told me due to me inhaling the chemicals for so long I permanently damaged my nose and throat resulting not able to smell correctly for a while and completely damaging my vocal cords. To sum it up he told me I was never going to speak again. It’s been 4 years that I’ve been mute now and I would say it gets better. My insurance was able to get me a speaking device that I type and I reads out loud what im typing. Not a day goes by I wish I didn’t do something so stupid but it’s just life’s funny way of saying you live and learn. Even if your lesson is losing your voice forever.

2023.06.07 09:15 Desperate_Disk3231 25F Small bump on the eye, should I go see a doctor?
25F, I have dry eyes, use eyedrops daily. I noticed this small bump on my eyeball next to the iris yesterday, before that my eye was quite red and irritated which started after a video game session on Saturday. At times it feels like there's something in my eye, but usually it doesn't feel like anything. What do you guys think, should I wait it out or go see a doctor tomorrow?

2023.06.07 09:12 restivoeye Eye Lasik Austin
| If you're interested in getting LASIK eye surgery in Austin, Texas, I can provide you with some general information. However, please note that the availability of specific clinics, doctors, and the latest developments in eye lasik austin may have changed since my last update in September 2021. It's always a good idea to consult with a local eye care professional or conduct further research to get the most up-to-date information. Eye Lasik Austin LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a popular refractive surgery procedure that aims to correct common vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The procedure involves using a laser to reshape the cornea, which can improve the eye's ability to focus light properly onto the retina. Keep in mind that LASIK is not suitable for everyone. Factors such as your overall eye health, corneal thickness, and prescription may affect your eligibility for the surgery. An eye care professional will be able to evaluate your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate treatment options for you. submitted by restivoeye to u/restivoeye [link] [comments] |

Mia Everett Visually confirming Rainn's revelation, Victoria is shown in a cage inside Amelia Everett's lab, within Biosyn's Citadel. Mia does her best to comfort the scared and depressed
Achillobator and her motivations are explored shortly after. It's revealed that due to her experience within the team who made the Indominus and the Indoraptor, Biosyn tasked her with reviving InGen's IBRIS program by breeding raptors with high obedience potential. However, none of the achillobators cloned by Biosyn proved to be trainable enough for the program's ambitions (even though they attempted to mimic Owen's experience by having keepers being there at the animals' birth), which displeased Dodgson and the other higher-ups, who are now favouring another research team, who focuses on a more intrusive way of controlling dinosaurs. Basically treated as a second-class researcher amidst a rather toxic work environment, Mia became desperate enough to hire poachers to capture Blue, which she intended to breed with their achillobators in order to finally have trainable individuals. As Victoria is not sexually mature, Mia is in front of a considerable setback and fears that Dodgson will pull the plug due to her lack of results, especially in this troubled period for Biosyn.
The tying noose The next day, the intel collected by the UN agents (people involved in the Black Market, Biosyn's connections with it) are sent to the nearby countries, including Italy, where an arrest warrant is launched against Kayla.
On his side, Isaac Gibbon is contacted by Bigelow who tells him about the debacle of their mission in Malta, saying that Claire and Owen saved the grey guards from disaster. He orders her to stay in Italy for the moment and wait for new orders. Shortly receives, he receives a candidate for a desk job in the DSD: It's Franklin. Gibbon tells Franklin he heard about his bravery during the 2019 incidents and his past connection with InGen (Before the DPG, Franklin worked for it as an IT Technician), before asking questions about Claire as he is aware that she collaborated with him not only on some occasions in the past few years but also in the 2019 Costa Rican incident, where Franklin was the couple's companion while they were running from InGen's agents and the authorities.
Dubrovnik The inhabitants and tourists of the Croatian seaside city of Dubrovnik are surprised when a Biosyn
Quetzalcoatlus descends upon the old town and starts attacking people. As a joke similar to one in TLW with the Japanese businessman and his reference to
Godzilla, some extra could yell in Valyrian "I left Westeros because of this!" or "By the Seven, not again!" (Dubrovnik was one of
Game of Thrones' filming location).
Ramsay's email In a manner similar to the Hawaii attack scene in Gareth Edwards'
Godzilla, the Dubrovnik scene cuts just as the Quetzal swoops on the bystanders and we are now in the bar of Biosyn's employee village. Wu is watching the news of the Dubrovnik attack on the TV (there is even a declaration from Zoe Murdoch, in which she denies the pterosaur came from Auronzo's Sanctuary and was probably created by a rival company who somehow put their hands upon Biosyn
Quetzalcoatlus DNA. In the bar, someone whisper that one of their Quetzals did escaped from the valley thanks to the temporary deactivation of the invisible fence system and that Dodgson has launched an investigation to know who's responsible) when he receives a mysterious email from Ramsay, which includes the name of some woman. Wu search it on the internet and ends up on IMDB where he discovers that the adult "Charlotte" on the videos is actually an actress who lives in London.
Arrest In Rome, early in the morning, Kayla is arrested in her flat by the police as she is accused of illegal smuggling.
Viscontini Following all the incidents in the Alps, the clash in the Sabine Hills and the recent Dubrovnik attack, people gets pissed at Biosyn and protests occur in several locations, including Rome. In the Italian Ministry of the Interior, Viscontini has an argument with Pazzi, declaring that they need to take severe actions against Biosyn but the minister retorts that taking large-scale actions against the corporation might trigger a whole deal of undesirable consequences, including deteriorating US-Italian relations due to the close ties between Biosyn and the US government. He won't risk that just because of some rumours, weak proof and small incidents. Viscontini retorts that soon, Biosyn might have an angry mob showing at its gates with the goal of driving it out of Italy.
Following Vuillier's instructions, Claire, Owen, Nyamu and Dougal leave Malta the same day and fly to the Eternal City, where they have to meet Viscontini in the AISI headquarters. There, they have a video call with Vuillier. He and Viscontini wants to send the trio of WDMC agents to Auronzo Valley so they can infiltrate Biosyn's facility, find compromising information and transmit them to the Italian authorities, hoping to finally convince Pazzi and the rest of the government to take action against Biosyn. However, one of the agents points out that they will need an entrance ticket as one doesn't simply walk into Auronzo, since the borders of Biosyn's lands are guarded and monitored while some people disappeared after going too close from the Sanctuary (anti-Biosyn activists, reckless adventurers, Grendel Corporation's spies, others from the AISI's and Austrian government). Viscontini declare they might have that ticket.
We cut to Kayla in her prison cell. The guard announces she has visit and she is brought to a room where Viscontini and Dougal waits for her. The head of the AISI and the WDMC agent then negotiate with her: In exchange for her freedom, she will bring Dougal, Claire and Owen to Biosyn's Sanctuary. However, Viscontini precise he'll have her hunted down if she ever betrays them.
Kayla raises the fact that she can't show up at Auronzo like this and needs a motive. Viscontini and Dougal then talk about the animals seized in Malta's black market.
Theo's Mission That day, Wu summons Theo, explain the whole issue with the fake Charlotte and ask him to go to London, find the actress and question her about the videos so they can have proofs to show Maisie, who started to really become insufferable because of Dodgson's bad influence (in that part of the story, one of the few scenes where she's likeable is one where she and Drummond bonds over the common passion for dinosaurs). The ex-mercenary soon leaves Auronzo, taking a bus for Venice in the nearest village while Wu explains to Pellegrino and Dodgson that Theo had urgent family matters to deal with in the UK.
Leaving San Francisco Desiring to supervise the Dolomites Crisis more closely, Vuillier fly to Italy.
Nine containers As evidence of Biosyn's possible connections to the Maltese black market has been discussed on the news, Dodgson knows it's a matter of time before Vuillier, the Italians or the Austrians send people in Auronzo and expose Biosyn's misdeeds.
We then follow Pellegrino's POV as she oversees the exit of nine large mysterious containers from the Citadel and their departure from the airstrip just outside the valley. One of her subordinates asks what's inside and she answers that she has no idea, with Dodgson only giving her a series of instructions. They watch the containers being flown abroad.
The following day, Pellegrino speak about it to Wu and other employees with anti-Dodgson sentiments like Drummond. She notices that Wu is uncomfortable as they talk about it and realize he must be hiding something. Ramsay, who just arrived from the US in preparation for a big corporate event in the Citadel, almost surprise their discussion. As they're not sure if they can trust him or not, they pretend it's nothing. Wu then phones Theo and asks him about his secret mission's progress.
London In London, Theo finds the actress from the videos and initially posing as a reporter, filming her in an interview, he then ask her questions about the videos and after some hesitations, she concedes to give him answers and reveals among other things that the shooting occurred a few months ago in some local warehouse, that the director of those videos is none other than Colin Trevorrow (who, desperate for a job after the debacle of the Jurassic World film, accepted to participate to that project, oblivious that Biosyn was behind it since a dummy company took care of the production).
AISI Vuillier arrives in Rome and meets with his agents, Nyamu and Viscontini in one of the AISI headquarters' conference rooms, where a map of Auronzo Valley and its surroundings has been laid. Kayla is also there and offscreen, our characters talk about the plan.
At the end of the meeting, everyone but Vuillier and Viscontini leave the room. Both have a secret conversation during which the Italian say that the Grey Guard's Mediterranean Company, supported by the Austrians and secretly by him (as he fears that Biosyn has informers within the Italian government), are deployed in one of the villages near Auronzo, and is supposed to act as a Plan B should the Claire-Owen-Dougal trio fail, by taking a secret path through an old mine and a mountain pass before breaking into Biosyn's citadel. The WDMC agents don't know that and when Vuillier ask why, Viscontini answers that it's better that way (should the agents be captured ant tortured, they won't tell Biosyn that there is a second team) and that the secret path isn't safer as one of his spy was killed by some creature after taking it and arriving in sight of the valley. He thinks that a small dozen of grey guards have better chances surviving the pass' guardian(s) than three civilian agents.
To the Dolomites The next day, in the middle of the morning, Kayla is preparing her plane in some airstrip near Rome and the seized creature from the black market is loaded in the hold (I have no idea which species to choose). Equipped by the Italians, Claire, Owen and Dougal say farewell to Vuillier, Nyamu and Viscontini. The Frenchman tells Claire that it's time to unleash the She-wolf upon Dodgson but Claire correct him by saying "
Not the She-wolf. The Dragon." (in this AU, she has a particular connection with the dragon-like Indominus), implying she'll get the mission done whatever it takes. He and the other two men wish them good luck and the trio of WDMC agents climb aboard the plane. They soon take off.
Biosyn's aerial defense Kayla's plane arrives in sight of the mountains which delimit Biosyn's Sanctuary. Informed of their mission by Vuillier and Viscontini, one of the grey guards is watching the plane through his binoculars as it passes over the village where they are staying.
Kayla is soon contacted by the Citadel's control room as they detected the aircraft on their radars and they ask her why she's coming. The pilot answer that she collected an animal which might interest them (she told the WDMC agents and the Italians that Biosyn doesn't have this particular species in their Sanctuary) and ask to land on their airstrip. While the Biosyn employees discuss, the plane is about to enter Auronzo Valley by the east, as that part of the sanctuary is the furthest from most of the buildings (while the airstrip is in the northernmost parts of Biosyn's lands, beyond the mountains with the frozen dam lake) and thus where Claire, Owen and Dougal has the best chances of landing unnoticed. The trio of agents take their parachutes and prepare to jump, but at the same time, Dodgson, who heard that Kayla was arrested by the authorities just a few days ago, fears that her plane is a Trojan horse and decides to activate the valley's "aerial defense". On the screen of one of the room's monitors, we see a group of dots heading straight towards the plane. It's actually a group of pteranodons, from the same toothed variant as those who appeared in
Jurassic Park 3 (there is even at least one black male identical to the scrapped one from Johnston's film), and they just collide with the plane, crashing against the cockpit and getting turned to shred by the rotors' blades, damaging the plane (the scene is partly inspired by a cutscene from the Ninth Mission of
Paraworld's campaign). Owen wonder why those pteranodons behave in a suicidal manner. Suddenly, the pteranodons retreat and as their window is shrinking, the agents know they have to jump now (they've reached the middle of the valley and their trajectory deviated northwards, towards the mountain dam). Claire jumps first but as Owen is about to jump in his turn, the plane is attacked by a
Quetzalcoatlus and the Raptor Whisperer sees another and a few pteranodons chasing her fiancée, whose parachute opened. Claire shakes the pterosaurs off by disappearing into the valley's dense forest. As they will be grabbed by the attacking pterosaurs as soon as they leave the aircraft, Owen, Dougal and Kayla stay inside it and brace for the crash. The plane crashes down at the surface of the frozen lake by the mountain dam in the northern part of the valley.
Back in Rome, Vuillier, Nyamu and Viscontini are worried as they heard the agents and the pterosaurs' screams (they had an open channel all that time with Kayla's plane). They hope the agents will survive this ordeal and activate the beacons they were given before their departure.
Note: The fate of the animal they took with them is still unclear for me. It really depends on the chosen species. If it's something large and potentially dangerous, Kayla would probably want to drop it in the valley in order to have a lighter plane and not deal with it after crashing. But if it's a creature about the size of a small dog for example, they could free it as they leave the wreckage. Gigantoraptor We then cut to Claire hanging in the trees but instead of a
Therizinosaurus (which already appeared in TRQ. Moreover, Claire had a small arc with this species in that story), she is threatened by a
Gigantoraptor. The scene plays out much like the Theri scene from Trevorrow's version, with Claire hiding in a pond etc.. Once the
Gigantoraptor walks away, Claire gets out of the pond and sees the fumes from the plane's crash in the distance, behind the mountain dam.
The dam lake Before it sinks in the lake, Owen, Dougal and Kayla leave her plane and step on the ice. Under it, they notice a large shadow and know they better move away from the lake. They notice a ladder by the dam but as they head towards it, a
Quetzalcoatlus or a
Pteranodon lands on their way. They step back, moving towards an opening on the lake's surface. Suddenly, a giant 9-meters long temnospondyl (based upon an unnamed and fragmentary genus from Lesotho) burst out the water, almost killing one of the characters. Ensue a scene where our three protagonists have to evade both the pterosaur and the amphibian. The pterosaur ends up being dragged underwater by the temnospondyl but other pterosaurs arrive and to escape them, our trio climbs on the dam and rushes to its elevator, going down in the valley. Down at the dam's base, they notice it's dilapidated and Kayla tell her two companions that Biosyn sell some of its power to the nearest villages.
Note: The main doubt I have about this scene is having a temnospondyl living in the icy water of a mountain lake. It might be too much of a stretch so if you think it's not realistic at all, it will be scrapped from the scene (and perhaps be replaced by a juvenile Baryonyx or something like this, an animal which could be also the one our characters brought with them in the plane. Plan B Since the agents lost their beacons during the pterosaurs' attack and the crash, they couldn't tell Rome that they were still alive. Vuillier and Viscontini fear the worst and send a message to Laurenzo Cesare.
Droppings Meanwhile, Claire started walking towards the dam, hoping to find her companions on the way if they made it out alive from the crash. When she hears a racket in the woods, she hides and a Biosyn tyrannosaur arrives. But it's not on a hunting mode and instead, it just leaves some droppings on a log near Claire's hiding place. After the predator leaves, she approaches the log and smears her face with the droppings, remembering her "Walk in the Park" with Owen when they searched her nephews during the Fall of Jurassic World (the droppings hide her smell, dissuading the other animals to investigate her).
Argument An argument bursts out between Owen, Dougal and Kayla while they're walking south. The first wants to find his fiancée, the second says that their mission is more important, and Kayla is mad at both men since she lost her plane (and livelihood) because of the WDMC's mission. And unsure about her intentions, the two men distrust her but she tries to reassure them by saying that Biosyn can fuck off since they are also responsible for destroying her plane.
However, the Sanctuary's denizens remind them that they better be united or else it will be the failure of their quest.
At some distance, in the middle of the fog, they see the recognizable silhouette of a sauropod, that of an
Argentinosaurus (the species was seen in the distance and mentioned earlier in the story. Instead of
Argentinosaurus, it could also be another large titanosaur). However, this herbivore has the particularity of having a symbiotic relation with some small carnivore species within Biosyn Sanctuary (I'm more thinking about a pterosaur or a flying/semi-arboreal theropod than a strictly ground-dwelling predator. For now, the baboon-sized
Variraptor is my candidate), with the
Argentinosaurus letting those carnivores eat its parasites and the insects flying around it while the carnivores will let out an alarm call shall a large predator approach. It could be illustrated in a scene where an
Acrocanthosaurus (the one from the Drive-in scene) is spotted by the carnivores as it passes by. The
Argentinosaurus turns to face the larger predator, adopt a defensive posture, and as the acro hasn't yet moved, the smaller carnivores take off from the sauropod and flies straight to the acro's head. Harassed by those creatures, the
Acrocanthosaurus retreats. Thus, if those small carnivores (which we'll call the
Argentinosaurus' suite) are brave enough to attack a megatheropod, our three protagonists know they're not safe and that they better move away.
The Sanctuary's true nature While still heading north, Claire's path crosses that of a bull
Shantungosaurus. She move out of his way and stay still. She and the audience recognize the animal as he was already in the JW rewrite and TRQ (in the first story, he gained some scars after a fight with a few
Metriacanthosaurus), where he was a secondary "character" (and a threat in a few scenes). Both have a peaceful scene where they make eye contact but that quiet moment is shattered when a gunshot resounds in the forest and the hadrosaur flees, badly wounded. Claire hides and in the distance, she sees a hunter, accompanied by a couple of Biosyn security guards and another employee which she presume is some sort of supervisohunting guide. Watching how the hunter is dressed and how he behave in the wild, she knows he's not a professional hunter but just a rich hobbyist and then realizes the Sanctuary's true nature: It's a hunting reserve. As the
Shantungosaurus escaped them, the hunter express his discontentment at the guide, which promise to find him another quarry. They leave and following the blood trail left by the hadrosaur, Claire finds him by a stream. His wounds are too grievous and he's too weak to lash out at Claire, who kneels by his head, trying to comfort him in his last moments, up until his last breath. Watching another of her former park's animals dying fills Claire with not only grief, but also anger. She change her plans and heads back south instead of continuing northward, following the hunting party's track.
Note: It doesn't necessarily have to be a Shantungosaurus in the role of the animal shot by the hunters, but it have to be a recognizable animal from the previous installments for emotional impact and Claire's development (another candidate could be the Therizinosaurus from TRQ) She later finds another hunting party. One of its members, a Biosyn guard, pulls out an item she recognize: a raptor resonating chamber. The guard use it like a bird call and soon, an
Achillobator, arrive, believing it heard one of its kind. The poor animal is shot by the hunters, who scream in satisfaction before taking a picture with their quarry. They then brings it to the Biosyn vehicle waiting nearby but before they leave (after having a short conversation during they mention that another team captured the rex and is bringing it the paddocks), Claire deliberately attract the attention of one of the guards, the same one which used the resonating chamber, and he say to his companions he won't be long. He move away from the road and deeper in the woods, he fall into Claire's ambush. She kill him, loot some of his equipment (including the resonating chamber), hide his body and leave. Worried for his colleague, the other guard with the hunters orders the guide to drive them back to the lodge, and search his friend. But he too is murdered by Claire, who takes a small metallic box on him. Activating the box, she realize it's a sonic weapon she has seen before, in the hands of InGen Security's elite troops during the fall of Isla Nublar (it's like a weaponized version of the box Dodgson and his companions have in Crichton's TLW). She turns it off, take it with her and follows the hunters vehicle's tracks on the road, towards the lodge.
However, Claire ignores she's being watched, and not by human eyes...
Over hill Cesare and his men leave their accommodation and head for the frontiers of Biosyn's lands. Leaving their vehicles near a ruined fort, the grey guards start their trek while the sun is setting behind the mountains ahead of them.
A bed in the trees As walking through the valley at night would be too dangerous, Owen, Dougal and Kayla decide to find a resting place and climb in a tree. From it, they have a panorama on a nearby lake and notice they are approximately halfway between the dam and the Citadel. At this moment, we also have peaceful scenes with the valley's denizens at dusk (
Pelecanimimus fishing in the lake, herbivores drinking nearby, the same
Spinosaurus from the report at the beginning peacefully sitting on the bank like an oversized duck...).
Theo's peace In the evening, just a few hours before his flight to Venice, Theo also passes by his former home, which he left years ago before joining Ken Wheatley's mercenary company. His ex-wife still lives here and noticing that she started a new life with another man and seems happy, he walks away in peace, leaving behind him the last picture he had of himself and her (earlier in the story, Theo is seen looking at said picture).
The secret path Back in Italy, the grey guards find the entrance of an old mine and enter it, taking the path that will allow them to pass under the limits of Biosyn's lands.
Mercenaries Mercenary troops land in Biosyn's airstrip and their leader is brought to the Citadel. He has a discussion with Dodgson behind closed doors.
Foes... or allies? A few hours after nightfall, Claire finally finds a large old chalet with typical Tyrolean architecture: The Hunting Lodge (it's implied that it was built way before Biosyn bought those lands, when the area was still part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, before WWI). Claire remarks it's surrounded by an invisible fence (identical to the one from
Jurassic World Evolution 2's Biosyn DLC) which prevents the animals from getting too close. Aware that the lodge wouldn't be a shelter for her and that its occupants probably outnumber her, she turns away from it, continuing to wander in the woods. But just a few minutes later, she hears sound in the nearby bushes. Aware she might be hunted, she is ready to use the ultrasound box and fight for her life. A pack of Achillobators shows up, menacingly walking towards her. At the same time, it starts to rain.
Claire first thinks of using the box and running away while the predators would be bothered by the sound but she knows it will be useless in the long run as they could track her all across the Sanctuary. She then remembers the reports she read earlier in the story, and especially that of the 2001 incident on Sorna, where Alan Grant and his companions walked out alive and unharmed from a close encounter with raptors.
In dire straits, she makes up a desperate plan and carefully, she pulls out the resonating chamber she stole from the Biosyn guards. She uses it and due to their bad experience in the sanctuary with the resonating chambers' usual users, the raptors get agitated but their pack leader tells them to calm down as Claire doesn't seem to be a Biosyn guard or a hunter. The pack leader walks alone towards Claire and sniffs the dried blood on her hands and clothes, realizing it belongs to other humans. Nothing happens for a moment and then the pack leader lets out a bark. Behind Claire, two raptors move aside. Slowly walking backwards, watching carefully the raptors' moves, Claire exits the circle made by the surrounding predators and continues doing so until she's at a respectable distance. At the beginning, the raptors just watch her but as she's heading towards the Hunting Lodge, she hears them following her. However, she is aware that they would have already pounced on her if they wanted to eat her and knows that they're more intrigued. Meanwhile, the rain intensifies (there could also be a storm).
Claire reaches the invisible fence, crosses it, and searches for its power source. But as she's sabotaging it, the Lodge caretaker (a gnarly-looking old local man) spots her and frightened by her look, runs away towards the building. She is forced to catch him and, after a short struggle, kill him with her knife before he can raise the alarm. After showing some trouble due to killing a probable innocent, she resumes her sabotage and the fence is deactivated. The raptors cross it and see Claire entering the lodge. Near its entrance, she finds a sword hanging on the wall as a decorative element and noticing it's still sharp, she takes it along with its sheath and heads for the rooms. Behind her, the raptors open the door and silently enter in the lodge. In the hallway which leads to the rooms, Claire stays still when the raptors walk past her as they head to the rooms and grin as her audacious plan is working. Claire enters one of the rooms, raises her sword blade over a sleeping hunter and when the time comes, thrust it into his body. Meanwhile, the raptors open other doors and entering the rooms, they rush on the sleepers. Slaughter ensues and only those who locked up their doors have the time to wake up, grab a weapon and fight for their very survival. Some of the lodge's occupants offer some resistance in the lounge but there, Claire activates the sonic weapon she stole and an ear-piercing sharp sound comes from it. While the raptors back off behind her, their common enemies kneel and scream in pain and Claire (who put on some earplug) slashes their throats, deactivate the weapon, and let the raptors tear the hunters alive while she raids some items (stuff like snacks, water, a first-aid kit, a map...) and leave, disappearing in the woods.
A bit later, she finds a small cave whose entrance is high from the ground and rest in it, sleeping until mid-morning.
The mountain's pass At the end of their night-long ascent, the grey guards arrive in a pass/cave where they found human bones, which they presume to be those of the AISI's spy Viscontini told them about, and the remains of a Biosyn drone. Soon after, they are attacked by the guardian animal(s) the corporation left there to kill any trespasser coming from that direction. (I haven't chosen any species yet). They manage to defeat it (or them) and dawn break out as they arrive at a vista point which overlooks the valley. The grey guards observe it, the eyes of Cesare stop on the Citadel for a moment, and they retreat back inside the mountain to rest a few hours before descending into the valley. They send a message to Vuillier and Viscontini, telling them that they're inside the Sanctuary.
Traces of a slaughter During their early morning patrol, a security team discovers that a massacre occurred during the night in the Hunting Lodge. They find clues indicating that someone helped the raptors and participated in the killings. The control room check the Lodge CCTV footage and fear spreads like wildfire among the staff when they discover the culprit is a sinister-looking black-clad hooded woman. Seeing that one of the figure's hand is a prosthesis and that the other wear a silver ring with a red gem, they realize it's Claire and Dodgson pretty much start to crap his pants (partly because one of the hunters was a very wealthy and powerful foreign client whose disappearance won't go unnoticed). Since she made it out alive from the plane's crash, Dodgson fears that the other WDMC agents might have too. When asked about the slaughter itself, Dodgson orders his staff to cover it up for the moment, as he don't want to worry the board of directors who are set to arrive later that day for a big event he planned in the evening.
Theo's return Theo returns to Auronzo and Wu, who just learned about Claire's presence in the valley, tells him that they must get Maisie out of the facility as soon as possible since disaster tends to follow Claire like a shadow.
Taking the gloves off However, Maisie has meanwhile discovered that the videos were another lie, by recognizing one of the scientists from the video, who also work at the Citadel (and who didn't aged, even though the adult Charlotte's video was supposed to be taken fourteen years ago). Aware that the gentle method is no longer considerable, Dodgson decides to use the hard one and Doctor Lesser locks Maisie in a cell within her lab, to which Wu can't access. Lesser reveal that it wasn't Wu who told Dodgson that she was a clone but the spy he has among Lockwood Manor's employees, and that the only true part in the video was the one about the genetic disease: Charlotte did had it, just like her mother Elizabeth before that (she died in 1993 and it was because of her Lockwood and Hammond fell out), and had the car accident which took her life didn't happened, the disease would have killed her a few years later. As he wanted Maisie to have a long life, Benjamin Lockwood asked the scientists he hired (there is a whole subplot about what they became in TRQ) to cure it and they did find a way. As the scientists' notes were accidently destroyed, the solution is now within Maisie's body, and Dodgson wants it so he can put new drugs on the market.
Before it's too late, Wu and Theo, with Ramsay's help, start organizing Maisie's evasion. The geneticist mentions a secret trail from WWI in the northeastern mountains: It's their escape route. He then heads for his lab, planning something else.
Tracking Claire Curious about Biosyn's movements around the Hunting Lodge, Owen, Dougal and Kayla investigate it after the departure of the security troops. They discover evidence of Claire's passage and Owen tries to follow her fiancée's tracks. Kayla and/or Dougal make comments about the slaughter of the hunters.
Bigelow's last chance Isaac Gibbon gives Jessica Bigelow a new mission: Go to Auronzo and ensure the evacuation of Lewis Dodgson and Biosyn's most important research. The agent ask her boss why and he said that he just received news that Biosyn is compromised. He also precise that it's her last chance after the Malta fiasco. Bigelow leave her safe house in central Italy and goes north.
Shady preparations Continuing south, Owen, Dougal and Kayla see mercenaries positioning some sort of moveable antenna on a ridge which overlooks the road which connects the Citadel to the valley's northern continue, as finding Claire and entering the Citadel is more urgent.
The gathering of the clouds One of the control room's employees ask Dodgson to come. He shows him footage from the Biosyn lands's southern gate, near the employee village.
Before the gate, a group of
Carabinieri stand, showing to the guards and the security cameras a search warrant: The government finally decided to act against Biosyn. But Dodgson refuses to open the gates for the
Carabinieri and orders the mercenaries who arrived during the night to intimidate them. The
Carabinieri move away from the gate, with their leader warning against the consequences of such an action. At a respectable distance from the gate, Vuillier, Viscontini and Nyamu watched the scene. Soon, other groups of
Carabinieri are deployed along the other entrances to Biosyn's lands. The siege of Auronzo has started.
Hearing about the siege's situation, some employees leave their post and head for the metro (which connects the Citadel to the village. Another loop also connects the Citadel to the various facilities across the Sanctuary, including the seven towers and the dam), in order to go to the village and then hoping to be able to leave Biosyn's lands before things starts to get too ugly but Dodgson's has the metro's station locked and commands them to go back to their posts. Seeing their CEO starting to act like Hitler in his bunker, they are afraid.
End of Act III.
See you tomorrow for Act IV

2023.06.07 08:12 Remote-Detective-126 Tips to minimize the side effect of Methylprednisolone (Prednisone/ Medrol)?
I am 29M now and my first dianosage with MG is when I was 4. From that time, I have had many relapse and remission. I didn't take anything other than Mestinon 60mg x 2-3 times a day. For all the time, only my left or right eye was affected with dropped eye lid and double vision.
Two months ago, I think by a little stress and exhaustion, MG came back. It hit me hard, even when I increased to 5 times x 60mg a day. I was taking vitamin and mineral supplements daily, but little did I know, I was taking the one with Magnesium - which is a RED FLAG for MG. I stopped taking the supplements a few days ago (because I ran out of them, lol) and only realized its negative effect today after consulting my doctor.
Today my doctor added Methylprednisolone (Medrol) 8mg x 1 per day for me as an attempt to get rid of my double vision. Can anyone share the tips you take to minimize the side effects of Prednisone/ Medrol?
TIA.

2023.06.07 08:04 Ambitious_Factor_865 AITA for purposely rash/scary driving my car on to a speed breaker, when I was the one carrying the family back from my grandfather's birthday, just because they mistreated me and disregarded my migraines?
I 21(F) have had driving lessons since I was 16. I am the "elder daughter" in both sides of my family and so I have had to be the "responsible one" since I was a kid. Everyone at my house just expects me to be the right person, do the right thing, be a fixer upper, provide advice, give emotional support, and arrange birthdays/events/gifts that make my family feel special (even though no one in my family has done anything on my except my younger sister, I love her, she has grown up to be an amazing teenager and I would like to say I had a part to play in her values growing up). Anyways fast forward to my grandfather's 75th birthday last month, I am the only one who can drive so well among my parents, aunt, and grandfather (my sister and cousin are minors). So naturally on my grandpa's birthday I drove to a restaurant we all love. Now the thing about this restaurant is that it has two parts, rooftop and indoors. I didn't want to go on the rooftop because it was ladies night and very loud music was playing. [Context: that very day on his birthday I took myself to the hospital because no one else would (despite ample family living around me), and the doctor told me that my wound (a few days ago my 3 y.o. cousin hit her head on my nose and I had headaches since) has turned into a ligament injury, but it is treatable by meds. Although I also had severe headache for days and when he checked me he was certain that I will have short term migraines and sinus headaches for 10 days. He gave me meds and I came home, got ready and drove me family to that restaurant.]
Back to the rooftop, my aunt insisted on going there. I told her and my dad that I don't want to but they brushed it off. The whole time there I was. hiding tears from my family. My head was hurting horribly. And my aunt decided to sit near the plants, she made me sit on the inside near the plants, cause she "doesn't like the smell of it" (WTF is wrong with her, why did she bring us to the plants then). Well in those 2 hours I took 2 painkillers and both my legs were covered in mosquito bites. By the time dinner ended I got up and left for downstairs. I met my parents there separately and told them that I was furious and this is unacceptable, they completely ignored me there.
(you can ignore the unbold text and move to next para also) They called me spoilt. This is after I have never literally asked them for anything, like my 12th birthday gift ask was a microwave because we didn't have anything to heat pre-made food and my mom had to use the stove, she was sick at the time so we had a lot of pre-made food. I got a camera for my 16th which I still use, I am a professional photographer now, but between 12 - 16 the only birthday gift I got was clothes on sale, and I never complained. That is what I have always gotten. My birthday falls on independence day sale time which is the biggest sale of the year and I stock up my clothes then. My birthdays have always led my family to fight with me and no one gives a shit other than my sister, but when she was a kid, she didn't like me getting attention so she would put menace on my birthday. I have had some bad birthday experience. My aunt used to make me cry and force makeup on me on my birthdays so that I look more girly, she started this when I was 13. So I was pissed that the people who ruined my birthdays just tried to ruin my day on someone else's birthday while I am sick.
Well when we drove back in the night, hahahahhaha, I was pissed. I stepped into the car with my parents, aunt and grandfather, and sister + cousin. It is a 7 seater for reference. And I started driving at 95 - 100 km/hr the second we exited the parking lot. The road after that restaurant for 5 kms has a bad short width but long height speed-breaker after every 500 meters. At each speed breaker I would purposefully not slow down and make sure to have a smirk on my face so that my dad can see. Before the right turn on the final speed-breaker I took the car so fast that everyone's head (except mine and dad's we were sitting up front) hit the car roof. It was not a big thing, thankfully nothing happened, but what I did was under my control. Although everyone was scared, especially my cousin sister, that was the only thing that made me feel bad. Okay, following up, but then after that right turn I slowed down my car to 20 km/hr speed which was annoying AF. Everyone behind thought that my dad got angry that's why I slowed, little did they know in that moment for the first time roles were reversed because my dad was scared, angry yes, but scared too. I saw it in his eyes. I love my dad, but I know my dad loves power. He never hit my mom but he has hit me a lot till I was 16 and a couple times even after.
That day I lectured in how I am a grownup, I earn, he even took money from me recently to give to some of his employees on short notice (which he returned); I told him that I have been grown enough to handle a lot of things since I was a kid and now at 21, I should be heard for myself too. This past year I have built a lot of courage and confronted my parents about a lot of shit they did.
Anyways my mom and aunt think I am an asshole and what I did is a proof that my driving rights should be taken away. Although they didn't do shit cause their emergency driver would go away if I stopped driving. But back to my question, AITA?
PS: I usually just read on reddit, but I feel like I wanted to post this.

Anyways fast forward to my grandfather's 75th birthday last month, I am the only one who can drive so well among my parents, aunt, and grandfather. So naturally on my grandpa's birthday I drove to a restaurant we all love. Now the thing about this restaurant is that it has two parts, rooftop and indoors. I didn't want to go on the rooftop because it was ladies night and very loud music was playing. [Context: that very day on his birthday I took myself to the hospital because no one else would (despite ample family living around me), and the doctor told me that my wound (a few days ago my 3 y.o. cousin hit her head on my nose and I had headaches since) has turned into a ligament injury, but it is treatable by meds. Although I also had severe headache for days and when he checked me he was certain that I will have short term migraines and sinus headaches for 10 days. He gave me meds and I came home, got ready and drove me family to that restaurant.]
Back to the rooftop, my aunt insisted on going there. I told her and my dad that I don't want to but they brushed it off. The whole time there I was. hiding tears from my family. My head was hurting horribly. And my aunt decided to sit near the plants, she made me sit on the inside near the plants, cause she "doesn't like the smell of it" (WTF is wrong with her, why did she bring us to the plants then). Well in those 2 hours I took 2 painkillers and both my legs were covered in mosquito bites. By the time dinner ended I got up and left for downstairs. I met my parents there separately and told them that I was furious and this is unacceptable, they completely ignored me there.
(you can ignore the unbold text and move to next para also) They called me spoilt. This is after I have never literally asked them for anything, like my 12th birthday gift ask was a microwave because we didn't have anything to heat pre-made food and my mom had to use the stove, she was sick at the time so we had a lot of pre-made food. I got a camera for my 16th which I still use, I am a professional photographer now, but between 12 - 16 the only birthday gift I got was clothes on sale, and I never complained. That is what I have always gotten. My birthday falls on independence day sale time which is the biggest sale of the year and I stock up my clothes then. My birthdays have always led my family to fight with me and no one gives a shit other than my sister, but when she was a kid, she didn't like me getting attention so she would put menace on my birthday. I have had some bad birthday experience. My aunt used to make me cry and force makeup on me on my birthdays so that I look more girly, she started this when I was 13. So I was pissed that the people who ruined my birthdays just tried to ruin my day on someone else's birthday while I am sick.
Well when we drove back in the night, hahahahhaha, I was pissed. I stepped into the car with my parents, aunt and grandfather, and sister + cousin. It is a 7 seater for reference. And I started driving at 95 - 100 km/hr the second we exited the parking lot. The road after that restaurant for 5 kms has a bad short width but long height speed-breaker after every 500 meters. At each speed breaker I would purposefully not slow down and make sure to have a smirk on my face so that my dad can see. Before the right turn on the final speed-breaker I took the car so fast that everyone's head (except mine and dad's we were sitting up front) hit the car roof. It was not a big thing, thankfully nothing happened, but what I did was under my control. Although everyone was scared, especially my cousin sister, that was the only thing that made me feel bad. Okay, following up, but then after that right turn I slowed down my car to 20 km/hr speed which was annoying AF. Everyone behind thought that my dad got angry that's why I slowed, little did they know in that moment for the first time roles were reversed because my dad was scared, angry yes, but scared too. I saw it in his eyes. I love my dad, but I know my dad loves power. He never hit my mom but he has hit me a lot till I was 16 and a couple times even after.
That day I lectured in how I am a grownup, I earn, he even took money from me recently to give to some of his employees on short notice (which he returned); I told him that I have been grown enough to handle a lot of things since I was a kid and now at 21, I should be heard for myself too. This past year I have built a lot of courage and confronted my parents about a lot of shit they did. Anyways my mom and aunt think I am an asshole and what I did is a proof that my driving rights should be taken away. Although they didn't do shit cause their emergency driver would go away if I stopped driving. But back to my question, AITA? PS: I usually just read on reddit, but I feel like I wanted to post this. #aita

2023.06.07 07:59 Hey-I-Read-It One from the late and great Norm Macdonald
A moth walks into a pediatrician’s office. So the pediatrician asks “what’s wrong, moth?” The moth responds. “What’s the problem? Where do I begin, man? I go to work for Gregory Illinivich, and all day long I work. Honestly doc, I don’t even know what I’m doing there anymore. I don’t even know if Gregory Illinivich knows. He only knows that he has power over me, and that seems to bring him happiness. But I don’t know, I wake up in a malaise, and I walk here and there… at night. I…I sometimes wake up and I turn to some old lady in my bed that’s on my arm. A lady that I once loved, doc. I don’t know where to turn to. My youngest, Alexendria, she fell in the…in the cold of last year. The cold took her down, as it did many of us. And my other boy, and this is the hardest pill to swallow, doc. My other boy, Gregory… I no longer love him. As much as it pains me to say, when I look in his eyes, all I see is the same cowardice that I that I catch when I take a glimpse of my own face in the mirror. If only my cowardice was stronger… then perhaps…perhaps I could bring myself to reach over to that cocked and loaded gun that lays on the bedside behind me and end this hellish facade once and for all…Doc, sometimes I feel like a spider, even though I’m a moth, just barely hanging on to my web with an everlasting fire underneath me. I’m not feeling good.
And so the doctor says, “Moth, man, you’re troubled. But you should be seeing a psychiatrist! Why on earth did you come here?” And the moth replies, “Cause the light was on.”

2023.06.07 07:23 Immediate_Leg_7101 Ex called CPS on me. I have questions.
So about five years ago I left the father of my five year old ( I found out he was cheating a week after I gave birth ). He was very controlling and abusive and called CPS on me when I moved out and into a battered women’s shelter. I had an open investigation for a year but they never took my kids… They were more worried about the domestic violence and protecting me and the kids from going back.
Well I messed up and ended up marrying another abuser. He was great the first three years of the relationship but things went downhill fast. He started emotionally abusing me, calling me names, gave me an STD while I was pregnant, and finally he assaulted me in front of our kids and have me two black eyes and what I believe to be a concussion. This was three months ago and I still suffer from headaches. I never reported it because I was afraid. But I did kick him out of the house. We rent a guesthouse on my parents property and my parents told me that the kids and I could stay but he had to go. He was very angry about this but he complied. He’s been doing everything he can to get back at me.
CPS came to my house again today. We live in a clean, pet free, smoke free home. My kids are well taken care of. My son has autism and has the proper therapy and doctors for it. I have no criminal record or history of drug use. I don’t drink. I did fail my drug test for THC but they didn’t seem to think it was a big deal. I know my ex called because I don’t hang out with anyone besides my family and my kids have been out of school for two weeks. No one else would have done this. Im actually currently getting no support from him and he also has caused me to leave work multiple times since I kicked him out because he refuses to pick them up from the sitter on time. I’ve lost a lot of money over this. Im wondering where to go from here and if I can use resources from cps to get him to help support us although we’re still legally married.
Im in Tennessee.

2023.06.07 07:21 AvidTh1nker 27M - If you giggle you owe me a [chat]!
Hey y'all, thanks for being here, I want to thank my parents, my friends.. Oh, sorry, I dont know how to start writing those things, so I guess I should start from the beginning? Here i go:
It was a sunny day in 1996, when a sweet young lady had a contraction and... Oh gosh, sorry again. I will fast forward a bit.
Well, as the title says, I am 27, and I'm brazilian. Let me cut the chase and answer the top 3 questions I get all the time.
- Yes, we are forced to play soccer from an early age. You need to play at least 1 soccer game every week or else... oh boy, things get messy
- Yes, all South Americans learn how to dance at the age of 2, I may have missed a few classes, tho.
3 No, not every brazilian has a big booty, I know you weren't ready for that, I'll give you some minutes to process it, and then we can go on.
Ok, now a bit about me, what do I like? Great question, let's see, I love movies, specially thriller, some of my favorites are Shutter Island, final destination, the pursuit of Happiness, inception and a lot more, we can talk about movies for, like, 30 minutes then I will get bored and change the subject but you got the idea.
I love series too, especially comedy, Friends are my favorite ones, and Ross and Rachel shouldn't end up together. Do you think you can change my mind? Try it, I dare you!
I like to work out and stay active, probably because of all those years forced to play soccer at school, now my body needs it. I have a cute border collie too so if you read all this and thought "omg he is so boring, I can't stand anymore" then just bear with me a little longer and you can see Loki in all his glory once you pm me.
I like to go out with my friends, and play some games together, I own a small collection of boardgames so if you are into that we have something to talk about too, my favorites are single player rpgs but I love playing coop games as well.
If you want to get an idea of what I look like, I'm 5'10 (177cm), brown eyes, and hair, and we can exchange pictures at any time.
You read this far? OMG, ME TOO! Send me a chat request, and let's see how it goes. Just behave yourself cause I am legally allowed to handcuff you.
See you soon! :)
