[Daniel] The Unpleasant Announcement

Who: Daniel
Where: Medical Facility, Kitchen #2
When: Day 23, noonish
Invited: Open to everyone at the Bunker
Status: Incomplete

"I'm letting them go."

The announcement, predictably, was met with shouts of outrage and protest, which was precisely what Daniel had expected. The archaeologist merely steepled his fingers together, and watched the gathered group of castaways and waited for the uproar to die down.

"They know everything about us," someone pointed out.

"They don't know anything at all," Alex said quietly. The girl had been moving in the shadows the past few days, working hard to avoid notice. She seemed convinced that there were those in the bunker who would lump her right in among the DHARMA scientists, and she worked hard to stay under the radar. "They're just . . . useless."

"She's right," Daniel interjected before anyone could challenge Alex's words. "They are what they appear to be – support staff. They don't know anything about the inner operations of DHARMA or even this facility. Letting them go isn't a problem. Even if they fall back into DHARMA's hands, it's not as though DHARMA doesn't already know *everything* about *everyone* here. Keeping them here is simply putting a drain on our supplies.

"Dr. Wilson, Dr. Sakai and Ethan on the other hand, are going to be our guests for a little while longer."

Ami was shaking off whatever shock she'd gotten from Rose, so Scott guided her out of House, Blaise, and Jack's way. He'd caught some of River's ramblings, as well. Those and the gold motes swimming across Rose's eyes chilled him to the bone. The Doctor needed to know right away.

/Damon!/ Scott 'shouted,' shielding the thought from Ami. The redhead didn't react, so Scott poked him telekinetically. Damon scowled and looked around who'd prodded him. Scott caught his eye and tried again. /DAMON!/

/What?/

/The nanites are active again. Find the Doctor and tell him. There's not much House can do for Rose./

OOC: In case anyone's wondering, Scott's not sure who knows about the nanites, so he's playing it safe.
