Group Email to CONDOR Personnel

 
Are we planning on doing anything about the joker posting on The Watch about wanting to collect materials from the UCLA sinkhole? I know we haven't had the tightest security on it so far, and I can't say I'm complaining about not having to babysit a hole in the ground. But now we have some anonymous "man of science" hellbent on collecting as much shit from the hole as possible. 

The phrase "as a man of science" never leads to something that altruistic.

Ms. Thrace, did you intend to include me on this e-mail chain?

Regardless, this will probably lead to some sort of worldwide epidemic--will civilians be granted superpowers upon contact? Will our intrepid and hapless explorers activate an alien signal beam and bring an extraterrestrial apocalypse down upon this Earth, again? I for one am dreadfully curious.

Or, a novel thought: we could avoid disaster through common sense.

Sincerely,
Flora Poste

[No truer words.]

Ms. Thrace--I might suggest the relatively lax security around the sinkhole be increased; though of course, what do I know. I'm sure there's a perfectly good reason CONDOR is behaving in such a manner--perhaps so as to facilitate Plot rather than Safety? Indeed without clever oversights, drama would never happen.

Or the anonymous 'man of science' could be apprehended. He has very neatly outlined the means. Simply reply to him expressing interest in a rendezvous, and when he shows up--well, you get the idea. There are infinite variations. Infinite ways of cajoling him into a meeting!

Sincerely,
Flora Poste

Oh, I doubt we would have much luck with confirmed and uncautious CONDOR personnel.

I'm sure someone trustworthy could be found.

Sincerely,
Flora Poste

[Ms. Thrace surely will not interpret that as Flora's offering to volunteer, ugh. Surely. Surely she knows her too well to expect any such thing.]

[...........Well, Flora thought she'd at least be asked. So that she could explicitly refuse.]

Surely not a tremendous help. It is only the easiest trick in the book, as it were.

Sincerely,
Flora Poste

I suppose you don't have anyone in mind?

Perhaps one of those Trailblazers would be ever-so-kind. A teenaged 'civilian' would not attract undue suspicion; and yet this person would be under your supervision.

Psychological assessments of scientists are irrelevant. No criminal charges can be brought against him.

[Legion doesn't bother signing their emails. That's what the address is for, right?]

You wish to confirm his innocence.


We were under the impression that human legal systems considered any given person innocent until proven guilty.

We do not believe CONDOR has the legal power to prevent trading of samples not currently in its possession. We will attempt to confirm this.

Do you have a suggested plan for locating him if you receive approval?

You believe we have an opposition to deceit?

We do not. We have employed the tactic ourselves to gather information.

Your plan is functional. Do you suggest we offer real samples or artificial?

Of the seven we collected, four were distributed to analysts. We can offer two of the remaining three to your operation; risk of permanent loss suggests we should keep at least one.

Most available candidates have yet to graduate from Trailblazers. Are these acceptable choices?
chapterfiveversenine: (hello)

[personal profile] chapterfiveversenine 2014-02-16 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
We will select a candidate and begin the operation within a week. Would you like to be present?

Candidate recruitment in progress. You will be kept informed.
