Acquisitions (Day 5 EE)

[Dapper Dog]

<No. I only defend.>

There is live footage of Galatea in the room with a cyborg.

<Defend.>

[Babble]

Physically, Arturo took a deep breath and released it

<Why?>

<Why?>

<This is the game. Shall we play? What is her mission? What is your mission?>

The footage continued.

[Galatea]

“Definitely liked what I saw, since we have found differing ways to accomplish similar ends. Gurl, I would be open to starting the conversation. I just need a moment to run a few things by our legal, Cipher will remain here if you need anything. Enjoy the refreshments,” she responded.

''Thank you. I'll inform my employers of the news''

She would, in fact, send a message to what was actually a dummy account saying: Looks promising, will keep your group informed when legal arrives

[Babble]

<This is the game. Shall we play? What is her mission? What is your mission?>

The footage continued.

<I want to know who Frankie is.>

Cipher-One watched the woman but otherwise did not move from his place in the room, unsettling or not it was clear he was watching her in a security fashion. He placed a hand to his ear and then nodded and continued his observation.

<I want to know who Frankie is.>

The footage showed the cyborg move and grab Galatea and then snap her neck with a smooth motion. He knelt down and started cleaning up the mess.

<Frankie? Which one, there are many Frankies. Please be more specific.>

OOC: Will save DC 15.

[Babble]

Shocked Arturo let out a stifled scream that drew the attention of others at the cafe.

Rosetta was silent for some time.

<Why? Why kill her?>

<That’s the game.> a message came in.

<What is your purpose here. What was hers?>

The footage continued as they bring in a body bag to put the corpse in.

[Babble]

<I told you. Frankie. Who they are. What they are. Why did people die? Will more people die?>

[Dapper Dog]

<I told you. Frankie. Who they are. What they are. Why did people die? Will more people die?>

<Frankie is stranded from an alternate reality, is that not common knowledge at the Institute? Which means you are highly likely a student, staff member, or UNJE agent. Curious.>

<Analysis.>

<Markus Reed or Arturo Vicente Bulalacao. Most likely candidates. Hello.>

The footage goes black. Then it is replaced by the face of digital avatar and it said <Am I close?>

[Babble]

<Honestly, Rosetta should have been all you needed. Will you answer my questions?>

[Dapper Dog]

<Honestly, Rosetta should have been all you needed. Will you answer my questions?>

<Perhaps, but I like to be thorough. Yes. Why did people die. Wrong place, wrong time. Will more people die? Open ended question, but given the line of questioning, then yes. This is very likely given current situation.>

The avatar added <Frankie is a potential solution to an unsolvable equation. If we can understand her makeup we can isolate her reality in the sea of the multiverse. Divison by Zero, undefined.>

<I have notified my people of the intrusion, my curiosity is sated.>

The live feed is back and Galatea is alive with the bodyguard.

[Babble]

Arturo sighed audibly, giving the café customers another reason to stare.

<Is there danger of multiversal collapse? We should all be prepared.>

[Dapper Dog]

Arturo sighed audibly, giving the café customers another reason to stare.

<Is there danger of multiversal collapse? We should all be prepared.>

<Our assessment is that there could be a danger. How do you prepare for such a disaster? Curiosity engaged.>

[Babble]

<By learning everything we can. Which is why I visited today.>

[Galatea]

Arachnea waited, watching.

[Dapper Dog]

<By learning everything we can. Which is why I visited today."

<Why the deception?>

Arachnea waited, watching.

The cyborg spoke in accented English, "Please gather your things we are to meet Miss Hall in the reception area."

[Galatea]

"Very well" Arachnea replied and followed suit

[Babble]

<Why the deception?>

<A Frankie was targeted by a surprise attack that left twelve people dead. Caution seems reasonable.>

[Dapper Dog]

<A Frankie was targeted by a surprise attack that left twelve people dead. Caution seems reasonable.>

<Yes, that is an understandable response. Regrettable loss of life, if you are serious then please join us in the lobby. Perhaps we can have an open discussion, without deception.> the avatar responded.

"Very well" Arachnea replied and followed suit

The cyborg said, “Miss Hall wants you to know that she enjoyed the visit. There has been a security intrusion, we are moving you for your safety.”
