Sorry for neglecting this, it had almost no patrons for the longest time and now I see it has a fair number!

 If you're $5 or more, you can posit any question or any number of questions here for characters in Awful Hospital, and I'll eventually round them up and have them all answered in-character on the site.

Phage: You are the BEST DOCTOR, and we know from Tori that doctors and surgeons of the highest quality attend The School. What is their TE program like, what classes did you take, and who was your Advisor/Total Education committee? Tori: What part of the concept core do Buzzers act on? Their attention persists through pretty gruesome death, so it can't be an organ they're interacting with. Right? Frond: What does the cure rate look like for Grey Zoners with mental problems vs. visitors from other Zones? Are mental problems harder to cure than physical ones? Frond again: Ever diagnose a Grey Zoner named Jay? I'm not a psychologist, psychiatrist, or floating diagnostic test, but I'm pretty sure he has a chronic case of being a giant dick. Dr. Man: In what ways are individuals from the Ultraviolet and other chromatic zones different from those from the Grey Zone? Do they tend to receive better treatment because the Hospital staff is better prepared to treat them, or because they can perceive it better and don't get themselves killed? Chip: This isn't a question, but try downloading some roguelikes - Nethack, COGMIND, Cataclysm: DDA... They really help pass the time! Professor Lexicovermus: The incredibly famous and unimpeachably competent Dr. H.M. Phage once stated that every Zone has a purpose, probably. By that logic, what purpose does the Grey Zone have? From what I've seen of other Zones, each one seems to represent both the good and bad qualities of the thing it's named after. The Hospital is full of doctors and cures, but also sickness and bacteria. The Morgue provides a resting place for the dead, but is far from peaceful or safe. Etc. What could the Grey Zone represent? Fern: If you're questioned by a floating inkblot or one of his associates, DO NOT MENTION US. You are not hearing voices, and such a thing is impossible. Sanity is all you know. Willis: What does Phage look like?

Dr. Fleagood: Are you having trouble telling adorable, four-limbed sound producing DOG from cute, adored by most adults BABY? Of course not! But if you were, this would make it worse. Young aged infants from the Grey Zone have a specific "look" that induces a caregiving response ( <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3260535/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3260535/</a> ). But research indicates that "look" is present in infants of multiple species! ( <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4019884/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4019884/</a> ) If you're not intensely familiar with their other, less important features, it can be legitimately hard to tell a DOG apart from a BABY. So my question is this: what do you use to tell them apart?

(Since nobody else is asking any, more questions!) Bloodstain: What did the Hospital look like before it went downhill? Was it cleaner, did it have more facilities, or were the doctors more efficient? Zonehopping Human: Do you think the vast majority of reality is disgusting, dangerous, and creepy? Or are Grey Zoners just unable to perceive it as beautiful, and extremely weak to things other organisms wouldn't find harmful? Flair: Does your cafe have any music? If not, I hear "Brave" by Jonathan Coulton is maddening to hear on a loop, repeated forever. Eyeslob: Who's a good boy? (It's you!) Balmer: What are you a doctor of, anyway? Mortuary Science? Evil planning? Zonal absorption and infectious disease? Eyeslob: WHO'S A GOOD BOY?!

I'll be trying to have ALL questions answered unless it would somehow force a major spoiler! :D
