[i]"Shut up Guilao!"[/i] The 'Naut snapped, before slumping his shoulders in his seat. [i]"Right, the issue is, Nine Lives isn't normally an X-issue, right? Disgusting scum just from a few hours here, but not Firewall-Teir. That changed when our on-site contact got a report they have new psych-surgery tech and methods ....From before the fall, of TITAN make. you know, back when it was a new and scary thing. So that thing may be an exsurgent vector and if so it's got to go."[/i] 

Pausing a moment to rummage in his dufflebag, the Shark chugged a moment from a flask before handing it off to Zoey and speaking again. 

[i]"We looked at one of the egos it's been used on, it's ...Way, way, WAY too passive and subservent, never seen anything like this. Now, from what we've been told, Nine Lives is in Sects ...and the lead Branch with Roland Nazon in charge currently holds the equipment. This has the others in a fit because it threatens the balance of power and they're gonna host a moot over it in the market district, This is our only opening. We need an idea how to crash it or get into their graces to get to this TITAN tech Nazon got his hands on and scuttle it."[/i] 

Lowering his fishy head a moment, he gave the room a pensive stare. [i]",..If that thing is carrying exsurgent, The Houngan branch may be infected. We can't just mark them up to ignorant Niang. Keep that in mind." 

",..Any questions?"[/i]
