I have one question and one important announcement.

The question:
Trolley problem with single man labeled Joss Sweden and 5 men labeled Lifeless Mannequins. Text reads If you pull the lever you run over Joss Sweden but he'll probably survive and the trolley will go 10mph faster afterwards
Do you pull the lever?


As for the announcement, the hospital now has a wing to treat magical maladies. Witch doctors and the like are welcome to come check it out. People with magical maladies also welcome to come get treated, I don't know how any of this shit works.

[Honestly, should he even respond to this? Rewarding such attention seeking behavior is not wise. However, he has an interest in the latter half of the message, so maybe he will simply ignore that ridiculous "question".]

Aught specific inspire this addition?

[Of course...]

One must ever be precious with what they will sacrifice for meaningless convenience. Though, that is not the focus of my inquiry.

That is not his name.

[ Look, it's the pedantry dragon! Anyway— ]

What manner of "magical maladies" do you refer to?

I'd say that deliberately running over someone with a trolly for convenience is wrong, so no, I wouldn't pull the lever. I know this thing isn't as fast as a broomstick and they definitely need to put more lightning runes on the tracks to make it run better, but it's faster than walking, at least. And it's more time for us to talk to each other and make new friends!

Also, look! I'm learning to use this device better since the last time I messaged you and I figured out I can change my user name! I've also discovered something called the 'shift' key, which has been very handy.

Believe you they would not request a facility should they require one?

No, it is not. I suspect he simply has not bothered to correct a user name assigned to him, as was done to others not long ago.

There is a curse that afflicts people of my world that we can do naught for, so I couldn't help but wonder.

Doubtlessly they will feel indebted to such generosity.

I see you've already heard of it.

That is an unrelated distraction.

That is far more than I would have expected in this world or any other. Does it require any resources you do not already have at present?

Your feigned ignorance ill-becomes you. I am disinterested in prying the truth from your perfidious mouth, when time itself will speak for you.

Is the command of language difficult for you? I should think one who claims himself a physicker above such trivialities.

Who is this Joss Sweden? Did he kill your puppy?

As for magical healing, I suppose I should check out your hospital. I could help a bit.
