[Hello, friends. Surely, in the midst of this whole clusterfuck, you wanted a wall of obnoxiously purple text in your faces. No? Well, that's what you're getting anyway.]

October is off to a rough start, isn't it?
And unfortunately some of us are of limited use in these matters, for one reason or another.
I've done my part to help where I can, but eventually one hits the point where they can only throw their hands in the air and say "fuck it".
That is to say, I have other work to focus on, and I won't set it aside to just sit around uselessly and wring my hands until this whole bioterrorism issue is settled.
Which brings me to the point of this post:
I require individuals to assist me with testing the products of my research.
My field of study is the practical application of local magic, and certain aspects of what I'm working on are impossible for me to test on my own.
Applicants need no particular skill beyond the ability to follow instructions.
It would certainly be nice if all the incentive needed was the opportunity to aid in the pursuit of knowledge and progress, but I don't imagine I'll have many takers who are quite that selfless.
So I can offer modest pay.
Or, if you would prefer and don't mind waiting a little, payment can take the form of a small finished product, once the kinks are worked out.
Precautions will be taken, of course, but there is an element of mild risk involved
Nothing that should result in maiming or death, but it's only ethical to make that known to those who might participate.
Please let me know if you're interested.


((ooc: I'll be putting up a log for the testing of Rose's "projects" maybe in a week once everything's settled down a bit. I won't require anyone to thread out the process of volunteering before hopping into the eventual log, but it's more than welcome. Or just use this to bother her for whatever other reasons idgaf. And as always, please hit up the font opt-out post in Rose's journal if you'd rather I dropped the text color for you!))

[ Illness and a general inability towards action have her perusing the network more than usual. The purple's certainly enough to stand out, but it's the mention of research that catches her eye more. ]

What kinds of results are you hoping to obtain through your research?

Understandable, though you'll have to excuse any reluctance on my part when it comes to agreeing to aid in such research when few details are being given out.

Are there any details you can share?

It does.

Since these are accessories, I'm assuming they shouldn't have any ill effects on any biological systems of the wearer?
[ And, since she is aware of the risks: ] I understand there may be physical risks involved but I hope nothing that will have long-term effects on any participants.

[ well that's. promising. ]

Will you have a doctor on hand in case something goes amiss?
