rattles my sleep self for tagging u without my awake self's knowledge somehow.

Would you tell me more about it? What your home is like? [ a quiet curiosity. ] What is 'normal' to each of us differs so greatly, I have no metric for this... [ with a faint pinch of the brow ] ... but I would like to learn anyways, if it would perhaps better help me care for you should you need help. [ im just a doctor man. ]

For starters, then... the City's huge. Way bigger than, say, that last one we visited-- maybe that would've been about the size of a Nest, but then each Nest has a District surrounding out, and there's 25 of 'em in total. Nests are all watched over by the Wings that run the place, those're the most powerful companies in the City, but outside the Nests? You're on your own. Backstreets're usually run by different Syndicates, so you've just gotta follow the rules of whoever's turf you live in, or leave.

[reaching for a cigarette...

remembering he's in the medbay. he stops.]

If you're not born in a Nest, and you don't get in by company sponsorship, it's just about impossible to immigrate. It's not like just packin' up and going in there, they're sealed off.

[ tilting their head they are listening attentively. i'm sorry you are in here in the medbay, where smoking is most definitely a no no... but they sit up a bit, a low whistle. ] Here I thought the last one was enormous... So it's a city run entirely by these companies... Hell of a way to have to live. What part of this did you come from...?

Used to be with one of the Wings. G Corp-- former G Corp, anyway. They fell after the Smoke War and got replaced with the G we've got now.
