DAY :027

[onemind]

[A day after the new arrivals show up and before anyone has really had a chance to settle in, every member of the nest gets an Extranet message at the exact same time from an untraceable source. It doesn't show up in your inbox; instead it opens in another window - don’t mistake it for a pop-up because if you close it, then you won’t be able to respond in line. The chat window's cursor blinks at you as the words scroll across, line by line; the message is accompanied by an unblinking blue eyeball avatar:]

XSome kind of brain trust you areX.

XWe've seen you sticking your noses where they don't belongX.

XOf course, they're not really your noses, are theyX?

XRemind us again: what it is that you think you’re trying to doX?



((ooc: feel free to use this post to respond in-line to EXTRAAA, as well as chat with other hosts via the mental-link or personal interactions. please be aware that this post has a time limit and all responses from extraaa will cease end of day 8/19; this doesn't mean you can't continue to tag this post afterward, just that extraaa will likely have gone silent by that point))

XWhat job? Why?X

[shiro2hero]

Save the world.

The usual.

[onemind]

XThat's a nice collection of buzz words, friendX.

XNow what are you ACTUALLY after?X

[shiro2hero]

It's the same either way.

What does it matter what my personal reasons are?

[onemind]

XNo it's not. Your goals determine how you'll approach a problemX.

[shiro2hero]

Fine. I'm not going to argue that, but why does it matter to you?

[onemind]

XYour people are messy. We don't want you making a mess out of our stuff while you're at itX.

[shiro2hero]

Maybe we could do a better job of not making messes if we knew more specifics from you.

[onemind]

XOr you could make it a lot messierX.

[shiro2hero]

It's hard to determine either when I have nothing to go on.

[onemind]

XThere's no reason for us to help you if you're just going to drag us down with youX.
