Then what were they trying to do? And why was it even possible in the first place?

[insinning]

...Mithrun said there were corporate uses for it. Reading and writing information from people's minds.

[pause]

...it was enough to drive some of us close to the edge.

[As Shoka had seen quite clearly]

[threatmewted]

...Wow, I hated every single word of that.

Is your company interested in making the exact same tech?

[insinning]

I don't know. There are a lot of things I'm not allowed to know. But their mission has always been "face the future, reach for a new identity." They're confused though. Something like this shouldn't be possible, with the level of technology that exists now.

But I think any company would want to get their hands on it.

[threatmewted]

...I really don't want this to be the future of all tech companies.

[insinning]

Me neither.

[threatmewted]

And you can't just bail and find a different job?

[insinning]

I have a contract...it's pretty iron tight.

[threatmewted]

Fake your death and move to another country?

[Her tone is so dry this can't be a serious suggestion.]

[insinning]

...I feel like one of the managers would figure that immediately and drag me back kicking and screaming.

[Is this a joke? Who knows]

[threatmewted]

Just what kind of messed up company did you get involved with?

[insinning]

...a pretty weird one. We're all there by choice, but...

[threatmewted]

...Are you, though?

[insinning]

...I am. Even if it doesn't seem like it.

[threatmewted]

If you say so.

[She sounds unconvinced.]

...Do you think they can be trusted with this kind of tech?

[insinning]

...I think my executive manager could be trusted. But they don't run the company.

[sooo]

[threatmewted]

...Awesome. Sounds great.

[Not.]

[insinning]

Yeah...anyway I'm going to visit Mithrun's apartment to see if I can find anything. Do you want me to let you know if I do?

[avoiding that convo honestly]

[threatmewted]

You can get there in person?

[insinning]

Yeah. It's not the longest flight I'll be on.

[threatmewted]

Where's he located? Isn't that gonna be spendy?

[insinning]

California. I've got the money for it now.

[threatmewted]

...Well, it's your money, I guess.

But sure. Tell me if you find anything.

[insinning]

[This is a good place to wrap up the convo! A few days later Shoka will get a text stating]

His headset is missing.

[But there's an attachment of a spreadsheet outlining Mithrun's dungeon adventures and their effects]

[threatmewted]

They actually let you in?

[Saving off that spreadsheet tho.]
