An unfortunate development

While investigating the aftermath of our elimination of the nest of nano-robotic lichen we discovered something disturbing. Someone (all signs point toward Darkle at the moment) was lacing them with adenovirus 36 (AD36). While most responsible world citizens know that this is a virus that has been associated with child obesity, some may wonder what this means. We are currently investigating some leads, but it appears that the Parent Corporation has an interest in causing obesity so that people lead more sedentary lives and thus rely more on indoor hobbies such as crafts and scrapbooking to entertain themselves. The joke is on them, however, since there is no evidence to suggest that the virus causes obesity, just that there is an association of obesity with the virus.
