Gordon was untouched by the linguistic and clothing weirdness of yesterday, largely because he spent most of the day at the firing range and didn't even notice. Today's a little wet even for his liking, though, so he's indoors doing various forms of maintenance on his equipment- primarily, the HEV suit and the crowbar. Not that the crowbar needs much maintenance beyond some touching up of the paint, but it seldom hurts to be sure.

He'll settle to reading later. Right now, big damn nerd doing big damn nerdy things to orange and grey bits of body armor.

"Chelation? I'm not familiar with the term, sorry. But wow, I can imagine. Doesn't sound civilian at all. Then again, it could've been rerouted research that the government decided it couldn't produce for the military, I suppose."

"Medical term. It's the use of certain types of chemical agent to remove heavy metals and other toxins from the body. Sort of like bio-remediation for chemical spills, only in this case everything goes on inside the body." Gordon shrugs. "At this point we'll never know what the plan was. Just that nobody seems to've been able to produce any more of the suits since."

"Wow. Your world... had some serious issues. Even before the invasion. I just feel sorry for all the people that were innocent. They didn't need to pay for the egos of a few." It's sickening.

"I know," Gordon says quietly. "I know."
