Questions/Question 198

Mods, this is delightful, truly!!

That one Patho-Gen person who decided to say: "If they die, they can just revive them." Mel's going to want to have a "chat" with them. Is there any info they can provide, even as she starts to lose her shit about it? While I doubt they have The Info, would he even be able to say that this is common/it's happened before/what it looks like/etc?

That Patho-Gen employee is going to regret being overheard by Mel...

They would immediately try to clam up about it, to deflect or claim that she'd misheard. He would also claim that it was meant as a reassurance, not as a... well, they have problems completing that thought. There's some bluster, some attempt at acting like an 'authority', but he'll cave readily to threats of violence (or expressions of it), or possibly even a Very Hard Look from an imperious Aves-type like Mel (especially if there's some claws involved... claws are a convincing argument).

Unfortunately, he doesn't have that much info. Anyone who knows anything... they're not out here, where they can be accosted. He'll say that he doesn't know of this happening before, but he also hasn't been at the company for that long. But he'll try to assert that this is 'for the greater good', and that whatever's happening is necessary. Necessary to save the Augmented from their Augmenter's failing? That, he'll hesitate over; he knows this isn't what's happening, even though he doesn't know what is. Only that it's important.

(An application of Orpheus' Song to encourage compliance (or any other characters with truth-sensing powers) wouldn't be able to get much else. He really is just a minor cog- someone who knows that more is going on, but isn't privy to the details.)
