MENTAL LINK.

[batmotif]

[Though it may be the first time that Bruce has reached out to everyone mentally, there’s no hesitation in how quickly his voice permeates in other hosts’ heads. As with most things, the man gets right to it — besides, this isn’t exactly being done for the sake of pleasantries.

Straight to business then:]

(If you’ve been paying attention, you’d know that Public Security Commissioner Seong-Hye Ngozi has been hiding something. I plan on visiting her office to find out exactly what that is.)

[Images of the office building itself filters through the link, the fruit of prior research and reconnaissance. And the implication is more than clear that this isn’t exactly going to be a scheduled office visit.]

(I’ll need distractions outside of the Public Security offices. Only volunteer if you’re confident that you know what you’re doing.)

[He’s sure questions are on their way, but he’s not willing to entertain them preemptively. Thus, his words end there.]

((ooc; this is the post for your character to ICly offer themselves to help with the break-in plot. (As detailed here.) Note that while Bruce might not find everyone’s credentials compelling, that won’t stop your character from coordinating with others if they want. He's not your supervisor!!!

Therefore, threadjacking is highly encouraged so all characters can sort out their plotting together!)

( Your definition of 'necessary' is a warped one. ) [ It's the mental equivalent of grumbling; she knows as well as he does that her fury, her anger when she'd unleashed it on him in the corridor, wouldn't have been abated by anything else.

Short of this, nearly killing her, he wouldn't have been able to stop her. ]

( In the interest of this mission, we will work together. Not as partners, not as allies, but as members of the Nest. That's it. )

[narcissithstic]

(I'm glad you decided to be reasonable.)

[ :) ]

[sensitively]

[ ...why does she suddenly have a foreboding sense of dread. ]

( Don't be -too- glad. Remember it means very little in way of cooperation between us. )


[ then, as an afterthought: ] ( What 'creatures' that were hunting me? )

[narcissithstic]

[Don't worry, Rey, he was being facetious.]

(How little did you ask before you were brought to Concordia?

The Nest's enemies, the ones responsible for distorting the flow of time, just as they're doing on this world: they came for us on Starkiller.)

[Do you really not remember, Scavenger?]

[sensitively]

[ oh good; for a moment she was worried she'd pleased him, or something. >:c

of course she remembers. she won't quickly forget the scene she'd left while still holding Finn's form in her arms. ]

( I didn't have a chance to ask as many questions as I would have liked; I was a little -busy- upon my immediate arrival, if you recall. ) [ the pull of her scar should give him a mirror sensation of pain as a reminder.

...So the strange ships she'd seen, demolishing what had remained of the cannon's oscillator and the remaining X- and TIE-fighters, had come for Ren as well. This instantly piques her curiosity. ] ( They're the same ones that are on this world, with us? )

[narcissithstic]

( Maybe.)

[He knows they're influencing the current flow of events, but...]

( Like us, I don't think they're here in full force. It would be difficult. Obvious. )

[Until they sink their teeth into their enemies at least once, he can only guess based on what he feels. What little seems probable, guided by the Force and common sense.]

( And we've already overstayed our welcome. )
