We can cross that bridge when we get there. [ Going to be... Week 3... ] He's worked with humans before, so... As long as he gets what he wants, I think he'll work with us. [ Nodding. ] Do you guys have a clue how well they remember?

[egodist]

Not yet. I've only begun corresponding them this week, but more chatty individuals like Dahut or Busybody might have a better idea.

[my npc cr......]

Are you open to using your own brother this way? I suppose you do get something out of it.

[getting back to the living...]

[dropoffs]

... We both get what we want, don't we? I come back and you guys come back. He would know we're using him, like he's using us. [ He's fine with it. ] Goals are aligned for now.

[egodist]

Do you anticipate a point in which our goals won't align?

[since 'for now' is a lot to be staking things on]

[dropoffs]

... Well, if I get back, who knows what he might do. Depends on his mood? And he's pretty moody! [ The Gamble. ] Maybe a hostage situation would do? That could make him angrier...

[egodist]

[



help.]

I see. And do you think he's strong enough to be able to overpower and outsmart everyone else on board the ship? There's no way to detain or remove him as a threat?

[dropoffs]

[ Listen... He's trying to help and he doesn't mind being a fake hostage or bargaining chip. He thinks about it for a long time. ] I'd rather you guys not have to handle him... If it comes to that point. Did you get a feel if the nanites have been neutralizing him over there? If they work, then he's just like anyone else while they're in his system.

[egodist]

[he shakes his head]

The method of communication for us is via dreams. He seemed to have access to his abilities in that...

But if he isn't using them in the waking world, I imagine the nanites act the same. Or do you think he would go along with pretending he's affected while posing as you when actually he's not?

[dropoffs]

Dreams. Kind of cool, but also kind of weird and personal. [ That's their private nighttime? ] ... With people dying weekly, it'd be easy for him to take out people he finds annoying and not get caught if he had his abilities, but Adrastea does have a lot of cameras. [ ... ] Still can't imagine Nai's tolerance being that great, so I think you're right.

[egodist]

Then for now, we'll proceed as though he's also afflicted by nanites.

[but i'm trying to free hei from this thread so,]

Is there anything else vital you think we need to know about him?

[dropoffs]

[ cool ] I think you guys got all you needed to know. Just... Be careful. [ YEAH ]
