*Launches forward, having kicked off the wall above the door and flies through the air toward the combatants*

@Valiance

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*The circuitry inches forward, tapping against the bands used to detect the opponents, then stretching itself into barely-visible fibers before grasping toward the other side of the chamber, now very similar to a spider’s web*

@System

*Trains a bayoneted rifle on Data as the path clears between myself and you after the stranger dodges*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by PhansiteMona>

As the non-OP, he can correct me, but I think it's Phiaxes. It's a futuristic sci-fi style city with advanced tech.

@Memory

This. It’s an urban landscape that sprawls the entirety of a planet.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

*Nods*
I’ll make sure any future encounters are known.

@Server

*My eyes flit to the door for a moment, motioning you to leave*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

Then are we free to go?

@Server

Yes. But I strongly advise you to share anything you know about ES, and not hide it. He is incredibly dangerous.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

Neither of us want bad blood, and I have nothing useful to you. All of this is a distraction from the real threat.

@Server

Very easy to just say. But it seems the decision has made itself.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

If I were working with ES, we would have escaped together. This is an obvious trap to divert your attention to us.

@Server

ES is involved. I would argue, as you should seem to know, that nothing is obvious under that condition.
*Folds my hands behind my back*
And yet, Orthrus is adamant through all this that the best decision is to let things go.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Raises my eyebrows briefly when you walk in*

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

What motive do I have to sabotage anything in your organization? I don't have any kind of stake or gain.

@Server

It’s never immediately obvious, is it? But you’re hiding something. Orthrus suspects it, and I know it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Server>

*Walks in calmly through the door*
Yes, Plouton. What detail?

@Magnanimity

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

What detail?

@Server

*Without hesitation*
Tempo here is not part of any group in the IA. Might as well be a outsider criminal sent to sabotage the nation.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

Whoever you’re talking to, I’m too low on the food chain to know about it. But you’ve sure made him angry.

@Server

<Snipped quote by Server>

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

Plus, Plouton, you already know what I'm thinking. It really isn't a good look to detain another organization's member like this. Not without definitive proof of them having acted out of malice and having learned something classified. Even if there is room for skepticism.

@Multifarious

All true statements. And all applicable to the situation, except one detail.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

He didn't trust me to "spread the word" to the right people. Whatever it is, he isn't a fan of your business dealings.

@Server

<Snipped quote by Server>

*Looks at you intensely, narrowing my eyes*

@Multifarious

*Glances between the two of you*
And that's your final answer?
