003. Text // You've only spent a second of your life

[manufactured]

I'm currently seeking people to assist with a personal project of mine. Details are best discussed in person; if you're interested, reply here and I can give you an address at which we can meet to go over what this particular favor would entail. If you have any immediately pressing questions, I suppose I can answer those as well.

Though I will say upfront that it's a paid request, not something I'm expecting you to do for free; I can afford to pay very handsomely for it, actually – something that I'm sure will be appreciated at least somewhat, given this time of year.


[OOC: This is with regards to some...at least mildly unethical and utterly unsanctioned clinical trials for something Wesker's been working on; I promise it will not kill or otherwise harm your character, worst case is literally "congratulations, it's fucking nothing" - a log will go up at some time later for further discussion, should there be takers.]

[ ...This sounds so sketch? But he could use the extra spending money, especially since he keeps insisting on treating people... and pay very handsomely is really tempting... ]

Is asking if this is dangerous something you can answer now, or is that better in person...?

[feistytrader]

[You know maybe this should be a little concerning given that he won't talk about it except in person and is paying people off for it-]

I'm in.

[Oh. Well, alright then.]

[manufactured]

[IT REALLY DOES SOUND SO SKETCH but you know what, bless you for responding to the siren call of lots of goddamn money, it truly is the most wonderful time of the year.]

No, that's entirely fair. It won't be dangerous to you.

[manufactured]

[oh my god it is not paying people off, do you considering being paid for normal work being paid off-

...you work retail, of course you do.]

Somehow I'm not surprised at that.

[stressweets]

[ IF THERE WAS ANY TIME TO DO MEDICAL TESTS.... IT WOULD BE NOW... but oh, if it's not dangerous to him, then that's actually perfectly okay!! Ah, he'll definitely be able to finish up his presents nicely... ]

Then please consider me interested.

[manufactured]

It's appreciated, then.

I don't believe we've met before now...?

[stressweets]

I don't think so either.
Tsukasa Suzakura.
oh, I should have asked if there was an age minimum for this...?

[feistytrader]

You said "pay" and "handsomely." I knew what I must do.

[manufactured]

Albert Wesker. Disregard the name on the app; it's one that I haven't used in a very long time.

How old are you?

[manufactured]

if you say so. I'm hardly going to dissuade you, in any case.

[stressweets]

16. I'll be 17 next April.

[manufactured]

We can discuss it, though I'm not opposed to hiring on people around your age.

[feistytrader]

So when do I show up to get briefed?

[Look he needs to make this sound like a big deal, okay-]

[manufactured]

[why are you so stupid.]

Don't worry about that; I'll be in contact with you.

[stressweets]

[ phew... ]

Alright. I'm looking forward to working with you then, Mr. Wesker.

[ is that the kind of thing you say? probably? ]

[prometheanflame]

[That's so vague and a bit disconcerting but he does know Wesker a little and he has preconceived notions:]

Is this related to Retrospec?

[Are we going to start a revolution?]

[thesettingsun]

[This is pretty sketchy, but Shuji trusts Wesker, so it'll probably be fine. Actually, his main concern is-]

Is there anything that would immediately disqualify someone for participating in this project?

[vitis]

[ ... well.


like the few others, john was had at "pay" and "very handsomely." he supposes he can always-- back out, if it's too much. ]

sure.
does it really gotta be this hushhush though

[1019]

What kind of project are we talking about here??

[Didn't... he say that details would need to be provided in person?]

Is it something that could use a hand from a tech wiz, because if so then I'm your guy, I could always use some more holiday money.

[For what, exactly?]

[sotenbori]

"very handsomely"'s kinda a vague statement but im in

[manufactured]

Likewise. I'll be in further contact with you regarding details.

[manufactured]

[...I MEAN, HE WOULD BE ENTIRELY ON BOARD FOR WAR ON RETROSPEC but unfortunately - ]

Retrospec is the reason I believe what I'm doing to be necessary, but it isn't directly acting out either for or against them, if that's the question.

[manufactured]

[this is how everyone in this game dies: people trusting albert wesker]

That would depend on what sort of disqualifying factor we're talking about, obviously, but I can think of a few things. What do you have in mind?

[manufactured]

Perhaps, perhaps now. I'm a rather private person, after all.

I don't believe we've met...?

[manufactured]

[...jesus christ, hello there. Parts of that have his attention, though, outside of the apparent inability to comprehend what "details will be provided in person" means - ]

Might I ask what it is you specialize in...?
