I'm good right now. I'm sorry about earlier, Charles. I couldn't see the keyboard and I don't like using the voice to text converter.

[riverbeans]

don't worry about it. as long as you're not in too much distress or anything...?

[applebough]

I feel surprisingly fine mentally.

I'm ready for the update.

[riverbeans]

oh. well, i won't ask about whatever happened physically.
first, got a hold of this. this can be shared.

[first he sends her the w5 video i linked in the doc because that's also happening around now but]

second, you'll want to keep this to yourself for now and i don't have any real details just yet, but there are plans in the works to finally get a proper hold of scrap this week and negotiate with them. if you have any thoughts, feel free to let me know.

[applebough]

Thank you.

[ Sigh. Coworkers fighting amongst themselves... ]

I'm glad that there are plans! Do you need any help?

[riverbeans]

[also sends her the decrypted church doc]

right now, we're still at the base stage. if you've got any questions or anything specific you think we should negotiate out of them, that'd help a lot. i think the big thing is figuring out whatever they're using for their alertness items to see if we can come up with a more longterm solution to the affliction, and to see how much access scrap has to the deceased based off your and shoma's theory.

[applebough]

I didn't get an answer based on what I asked about Scrap, so maybe we'll have to see for ourselves, or

Wait... a minute.

We have someone back. We can ask Viktor.

Also, if it's money that Scrap wants, we have so much money from our stipends.

[riverbeans]

oh, that's true, viktor might be a good source of information. i don't need the plan finalized immediately, so we can see what he says tomorrow.

[applebough]

Alright.

I hope he comes to the meeting... I was worried that he would just disappear.

[riverbeans]

it is kind of hard to shake that feeling off, huh? but if it's real, then i'm glad.

[applebough]

I am too. I'm really trying very hard not to think that there's a catch, nor do I want to assume that Viktor returning is an omen. But with him being here, I feel even more motivated to get the others back.

[riverbeans]

yeah. if it can happen once, we just need to make sure it happens about a dozen more times.

[applebough]

I don't think it's wrong to hope in this kind of situation.

Also, if you need any tools that veer towards forced capture, I have some OmegaMart items. One will make someone slow and another will do make them do anything "innocuous", such as answer a question. :D

[riverbeans]

oh, very conniving of you, yuri. i'll keep those in mind.

[applebough]

[ This is why Charles is one of her favorite people. ]

I don't have much else to offer, but if there's anything else, please let me know.

[riverbeans]

[most likely we will not need to curse scrap but it's good to know.......]

will do. i'll let you know how things go too if i can.
