[snip]Marlaa and the blob it was attached too seemed to pause in some way Belmont could not describe. It was almost like the blob and puppet were suddenly slapped by some unseen force that drew their attentions. Marlaa then spoke but not to the questions Belmont had asked, “..The Whole has become sick! It is from your space, your time and your physical reality that this has come to pass! The Whole is.....it is....fighting The Whole, we would be sick too but we are in here…” Marlaa said looking distressed and Belmont would be struck that going off its voice from before to now it was likely more that if the core blob in the containment field could speak this was a more close representation of its ‘voice’ rather then just a mimic of Marlaa’s and the others they had seen.
The blob in response reabsorbed Marlaa and clearly showed signs of distress, from its actions it could be described as being terrified, confused, anxious and the like.

Marlaa frowned and looked around a moment. Reaching to the table beside her, she grabbed a small glass container a couple inches high, able to contain about eight ounces of liquid. She did it, upside down, beside the creature. “To rest upon,” she murmured, hoping it would understand the concept of a chair like object to ease itself on.
“Is there a way for us and the other ship to be removed so we all can be removed from harm’s way? We honestly do feel bad about causing distress to you.” There was sadness to her voice and face. Knowing, now, that their presence, while an accident, was causing harm, truly bothered her.

The blob in its current state seemed to ignore the upturned container now inside the containment field area. It also seemed to have withdrawn inward to itself, bubbles popping off its surface which seemed to echo words like “..The Whole is sick..” and “..It fractures and fights..” among others. It seems whatever was happening outside the ship was distressing the blob, but in turn it was not effected by whatever the outside space lifeform had happening to it. Perhaps going to or checking in with the bridge, or checking external scans would reveal more?
Before anyone could try to contact the bridge, or check external scans, Drudoc’s voice came over the ship wide comms =/\= All hands secure all stations, and brace yourselves for possible impacts! =/\= She added. A moment later there was the feeling of the Ark Angel making high speed maneuvers then the slight jolt of it jumping to warp for a moment or so before returning to sublight speeds. Evidently something very dire had been happening given the Captain it seems risked jumping the ship to warp speed inside the life form, which itself was a dangerous thing to plan and perform.

While checking up on what was happening outside had just barely started to form itself in Mar’s mind, the jostle made up her mind to contact the bridge.
=^= Captain, Marlaa here in Science. What’s happening? Our guest seems rather distraught.=^= She didn’t bother mentioning she was as well. Had it been safe, she’d considered offering her own hand for the blob to rest upon. But she wasn’t sure, yet, if that was such a great idea.
“We’re gonna try and figure this out. We aren’t a species that purposefully harms. We don’t like to hurt others no matter the reason. Even self defense harm bothers us. How can we help? Is there something I can tell the Captain that will make things easier” She let her genuine concern and desire to help fill her words. She wanted to save whatever this amazing creature was from further harm.
