Right. Unfortunately, I think we’re a good ways off from being able to give prosthetics a sense of touch with technology alone. Why aren’t you sure about asking Elias? I can think of a few reasons but I’d like to make sure.
Because he hasn't yet. I took my friend to the Arcade when they got hurt.
[Did Marco know she had renounced the Fog god and changed sides? Well, now he does.]
It's possible that helped keep them alive, but they were still bleeding and in a lot of pain. I think maybe until I do more for him, even if he wanted to try to earn my favor, it might not be possible.
It didn't get better during the fog, either. I don't know why.
[Was he supposed to know that? Well, one way or another, he knows now.]
Well... It could be that the Arcade can't heal him unless your friend joins Elias too.
[Or it could, indeed, be a matter of favor. As much as Marco insists his title is nothing more than that - a title, a formality - he has to admit that the perks are real.]
Wait, The fog didn't help either? That's strange. Maybe it hasn't been long enough yet?
[There likely isn't a need to be secretive -- if anyone saw Leo at night, it was within the realm of reason to assume he was aligned with Elias, thanks to his glowing neon markings, and even in this place, a missing arm is fairly obvious. Still, she wants to be careful. For whatever reason, Leo had make his query about the fog not healing him through a different username than normal, and anyone knowing anything about who was aligned to who could be dangerous. See: later in the month when she messages Atem to ask about which Foggies she would be allowed to kill without ruining their friendship. Yay, Fidds made the list of off-limits people!]
It happened on the 1st. Maybe I shouldn't have expected it to heal completely, but it didn't do anything. They didn't mean to, but they did it themself... Would Miss Fog really do nothing for them just because of that?
All I can do for them now is look for future options. Or possess them, if they're in bad pain, but...I don't think they'll tell me if they are.
I wouldn't think so. I haven't really seen her punish anyone before, even when she's feeling more violent. But...even with her being weakened, it should have worked. I can't think of any other reason why it wouldn't.

IS that something the Fog God would do?
I genuinely have no idea.
[It doesn't seem like her... but then again, what does he know?]

<marco>
She can't be THAT weakened. Can she?
That would be cause for concern.
< r.gardner >
But I doubt it.
<marco>
We might be able to connect some dots, regardless of the cause.
< r.gardner >
Would you let me know if you hear anything like that?
<marco>
I'll keep an eye out.
