Yes, but that's not the point.

"The best defense is a mediocre offense" is what I'm hearing.

*Snaps out of staring into the distance and smiles at you*

Yes, and typically, refusing to share your name with someone is considered offensive. Besides, any fight worth having requires both strategies.

@Yatagarasu

If you want to play it that way, I've seen you be way more offensive that.

An intruder. Something we weren’t expecting to see or hear well. At all. Despite my attempts to test that security measure.
*thinks*
Many of the teams were quickly evacuating or panicking and trying to escape. But I knew what the next step was. Destroy any assets that could potentially be used against us.

@Extra

How'd they get in?

<Snipped quote by Session>

Of course.
*taps my fingers on the mug*
I was working on testing security doors back in Bio, then the alarms started blaring. Ones that I kept up on for testing. You don’t hear those alarms unless something terrible happened and was a definite problem.
*looks at you*
Everything started shutting down and people were panicking.

@Extra

Oh yeah? What triggered them?

*takes it with both hands and holds it*
Where should I start?

@Extra

Yesterday would probably be the best place.

<Snipped quote by Session>

Black is preferable. Thank you.

@Extra

Mkay~
*Tops it off with hot water and slides the mug in front of you*

<Snipped quote by Session>

Yes. My world is gone, literally and figuratively. And I really have no one else to go to.

@Extra

Yeah, that's rough.
*Once the espresso finishes, removes a mug with my face on it from the cabinet*
You like lattes or what? What do you want in it?

<Snipped quote by Session>

Yesterday. A very long yesterday.
*looks at you*
Typically I like it strong, but I’m afraid of what strong is to you compared to mine so I’d say “strong enough to keep my mind at a consistent level of heightened awareness all day”.

@Extra

I have no idea what that looks like for you. But okay. You get it normal.
*Fills the top of the machine with purified hot water from a spout and closes it up*
So in other words, yesterday changed everything for you, huh?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

Only recently. Before it was just friends and colleagues from different departments.

@Extra

How recently is that?
*Tamps the grounds and hooks it into the machine*
And how strong do you want it?
