More like the clean up
Of the clean up
[ heh ]
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
Think I can borrow it for a day
?
no subject
I don't know what that means but it was terrible.
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
Sure. I haven't used it yet, anyway.
no subject
You'll probably get it eventually
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
Mind if others use it too
?
It's kind of a group thing
no subject
That's not ominous...
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
So long as no one breaks. Normally I would say keep it and do whatever, but you never know when the CDC might ask me about my blue shovel some day.
no subject
We're working for the same people, aren't we
?
You should be used to ominous
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
It's blue
?
[ that's weird ]
no subject
Ominous has gotten me nearly killed more times than I can count on one hand so far here.
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
I'm blue team.
no subject
Still breathing though
So there's that
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
Huh
That's cute I guess
no subject
For now.
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
Not the word I'd use, but...
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
How's CDC been for you so far?
no subject
It's always "for now"
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
Confusing
Is it always this bipolar
?
no subject
Not normally.
Normally there's a lot of work. Some of the Instructors try to ease the blows with gifts and little kindnesses, but it's still stressful most of the time.
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
All these good things are kind of worrying, actually.
no subject
The calm before the boom
Enjoy it while you can, I guess
If you're into that
no subject
I'm not, actually. I preferred when I worked so much for them I barely even slept to this.
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
You're not not into calm?
no subject
I came here to work
[ with work came their bargain, and that's all he's in for ]
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
Not really interested in the other stuff
no subject
You agreed to come here?
no subject
Yeah
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
You didn't
?
no subject
I did. I just feel like everyone else I meet was tricked into it.
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
What did they offer you? If it's not too personal.
no subject
A way to fix something
[ aka it's personal ]
no subject
Mine was for a way to save my country.
[ Because he shared. It's only polite. ]
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
I think it's better to be here by choice. Some of the others struggle with it, I think.
no subject
Big of you
You didn't ask for something else
?
[ because that was generally the catch, wasn't it? sign up, save your world. nic, on the other hand, had been offered something more. something a little closer to home. ]
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
Given what we're expected to do
I'm not surprised
They'll figure it out the hard way, I guess
no subject
Specifically I asked for a way to defeat my enemy's greatest power. [ She wouldn't say it's big of her. Maybe selfish, actually. A quicker way to end the war and free herself? A shortcut away from the firebird? Or just a way to complete her sole purpose in her world?
Big of her, though...? Not really. ]
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
Some already have. Clean-up duty is the usual punishment for mission failure, but once Dagger turned off cuffs for thirty seconds for his team when half of them failed.
FROM: starkov.alina@cdc.org
It's only the beginning, too.
no subject
someone just as desperate. ]
FROM: brown.nicolas@cdc.org
The cuffs are a big deal
?
