Huh. Might be worth asking, yeah. See if it's in sync with the timing that the energy read started getting more obvious. [ he's not liking how this is starting to sound. but he will take a look at the reports. do these people have names? or will showing the reports suffice? ]
Interesting that the son of the plant's one of the people missing though, considering what sort of people are housed in the plant. [ immediately thinking it's potentially a hostage situation. ] I'll see what I can find out. With a small population, you'd think everyone would know everyone else.
[ yeah. yeah it doesn't sound great. io's brow is a bit furrowed as well as they look it over, tugging on their jacket collar. ]
It is, isn't it? His father entrusted supervision of the people in the plant to him, while he himself rules over the entire operation.
[ the names aren't important, you will all find that you can show the reports to people and that should suffice! i won't bog you down with that. ]
Everyone should know everyone if it's as small a place as it seems. But with that, there may be people willing to lie about it too. I don't know if the son is exactly endeared to anyone. The daughter, however... well. Who knows.
People with power rarely do much to endear themselves to common society. [ dry. people are fucking terrible, actually. also thank you char ur the best. ] In any case it doesn't hurt to ask about one and change tactics to ask about the other if it doesn't work. If anything, it should allow us to decide if there's a connection and maybe give us a new lead to follow to track down the source.
[ oh yeah when shoma says this io just snorts like yeah. YEAH. ]
Hit the nail on the head. This sounds like a good tactic to me. I'll make sure to set a bit of a "meet back up" timer for us all to regroup by the ship. We'll have a look at all the info we've gathered then... with luck on our side, we should be able to head into the plant itself.
Work fast, but work carefully. Don't risk your necks where you don't need to. The insignias on your suits should grant you at least a little leverage, though not with everyone there... as far as they need to know, we're survey scouts making the usual rounds.
Shouldn't ask for more detail than that. If they do... I trust you to be wise about your approach.
Blend in then. I think we can do that. [ another undercover sort of mission. ] I don't plan on telling them more than they need to know, but we'll be careful. Nothing to blow our chances.

If we do, well, we'll just have to figure it out. Maybe we'll have to take Temenos' idea and get ourselves arrested.
