(BACKDATED) DAY 36

[decommission]

[ Hello, friends - have a polite knock on your mental doors. ]

( Sam and me did some more digging on Ngozi trying to work out her angle in all of this. Pretty sure we can rule her out as a secret H+H1 fanatic - whatever's making her act extra shifty seems like it started around the first bombing at the warehouse.

That's about when Ven started acting awfully cagey too. ) [ But they couldn't get past his security to find out what he was hiding thanks to the second bombing.

A pause. ]

( Anyway - I've got the holo-things and articles on a screen out in the living room if you wanna take a poke at them. )

(( OOC: More detailed info is here! ))

( I'm not sure. ) [ Petre spends a lot of time playing Bout It Out by himself, or talking shit on the Extranet.

There's resistance to her explanation even though he has little disagreement with what she's actually saying. He works through it before responding. ] ( If it comes down to Ren, I want to be there with Sam. )

( If it comes to that, I can trust that the two of you handle him well. He's seeking a target. ) [And as much as Lexa has promised him one, she can't help but think that he might decide that someone is a target to satisfy his bloodlust. Even without her promise, he would have sought one, and he doesn't know if their arrangement is one with any meaning.

She's not foolish to believe she has any real influence over Kylo Ren. But an attempt is an attempt.]

( There are poisons my people use to temporarily stop someone. There may be something similar here. ) [A tranquilizer. She is suggesting a tranquilizer if he decides to kill the woman.]

[decommission]

( Poison? ) [ A flicker of confusion, then - ] ( You'd probably have to go down to Subspace to get something like that, but last I checked the security sweeps were still going on there. ) [ It'd be risky, not to mention he doesn't particularly like that idea even as a last resort. Best to use the tried and tested method. ]

[adamance]

( It's an idea. Assuming they have something here that isn't lethal. )

[Risky is something she can manage. She hasn't done anything here that would require her to be subtle, and admittedly, she hasn't done anything like that at home. Lexa has the training, yes, but the Commander is often unable to shroud herself in secrecy.

(Then again, that's why she's sought to employ those who can do that.)]
