mental link: day 34

[erbier]

[ It is actually quite late when Ilde's soft voice moves through the hosts, her scent of smoke and earth. She is at a club somewhere deep in the city, dazzled by noise and light, something you are free to establish if you look for it. ]

( It has been suggested to me by a hacker named Y that I throw a concert to lure our bombers out again. )

[ This part is forthright, a statement of fact with no value attachment to it. ]

( I believe she is questioning who I really am. If I refuse this idea, I may encourage that. )

[ This may not be strictly true, but it is how Ilde has perceived their conversation. ]

( She seems to know something, but is it worth losing my guise? If not, how am I to refuse this suggestion and maintain it. I do not know if she is a part of the group who contacted us before. She may already know I am false and this is all a game. )


OOC: link & all threadjacking here very much encouraged!

[Bruce can't imagine what it would be like to not honor the memory of those lost, given that loss is a trait that defines him -- but given he doesn't want to go into that, he pushes past it.]

(Even if that's the case, we should at least treat the lives of the living as more than bait.)

[snaphiss]

( So you would never purposefully put the lives of yourself or others in danger for greater gain? For a greater mission, I mean, not out of pure selfishness. )

[batmotif]

(No. Not the lives of others.) [Note the omission there.] (We don't need to rely on desperate measures anyway. There are other leads to follow.)

[snaphiss]

( We don't need to choose one lead over the other. )

[But.]

( But if we had to, I would go after the commissioner rather than this, yes. )

[batmotif]

(Plans are underway where that's concerned. I intend to pay her office a visit.)

[Time for a less public venues!!! Mara switches to contacting him directly, boop.]
