Missing Person?

[standalonehuman]

Alpha#02010681 This is Hitori Togusa, this name thing is annoying.
Alpha#02010681 Who else has been in contact with Zee recently? I can't get him, and I've only got the barest information to go on.
Alpha#02010681 He said that he was finding information in their system that was just plain wrong, and wanted to investigate something related to it. I think this meant leaving the city, but I can't verify it.
Alpha#02010681 The big clue, he said he wanted to generate something called a counterwave. He didn't elaborate.
Alpha#02010681 We have to find him, and either help him or stop him. He dropped off the network, I didn't even think that was possible!
Alpha#02010681 Does anybody else know anything? Can anyone else help search the city or the outlying areas?

Alpha#02010681 Eventually, yes.
Alpha#02010681 If we've got to let their plan play out first, then I'll help. If it's the only way to get the other souls back home, if that's actually what's going on.
Alpha#02010681 But afterwards? There has to be some measure of justice for what they've done.

Beta#0901185204 “What they’ve done”.
What’s justice to you?

Alpha#02010681 Doesn't matter what it is to me, it matters what it is to the system. I'm one of the only people responsible for upholding that system that can see what's happening here, so my job is to keep collecting evidence. It's not my job to pass judgement, it's my job to make sure that judgement is even possible.

Beta#0901185204 You’re beating the dead horse that pulled your own wagon.

Alpha#02010681 We're getting off the point of this post.
Alpha#02010681 Zee is missing, one way or another. Looks like Tatsuo and I are going to take Pesgare. Whoever you are, can you help look for him?

[usurpers]

Beta#0901185204 I think I have faith in what Zee’s doing.
Beta#0901185204 He said from the start that it’d cause panic regardless of what he said to the network.

[standalonehuman]

Alpha#02010681 I'm less worried about what he's doing, and more worried about him.
Alpha#02010681 You think he's going to come back okay?

[usurpers]

Beta#0901185204 To put him in jail alive or are you actually worried for him?

[ after a moment: ]

Beta#0901185204 I believe it, but only because I believe in him, and what he chooses to do to help. Again, he knows what he’s doing.
Beta#0901185204 That’s how I see it.

[standalonehuman]

Alpha#02010681 What? Of course not, I'm worried about him.
Alpha#02010681 He's not one of the people responsible for what we're going through. He's stuck in this just like us. I wouldn't want to come down on him, no.

Alpha#02010681 I know he knows better than we do, but what if the techs know something is going to happen and they can't communicate it to him now?

Beta#0901185204 If that’s the case then your argument is completely biased. He’s consciously as much of a part of Retrospec as Joanne and Wendy, and “what they did to us” is personal.

Beta#0901185204 And that was his choice. If he did it because he wanted to help us, I’ll respect it and keep up my end so it isn’t in vain.
Beta#0901185204 That’s the only way things can resolve.
