So here's the thing…

We have a lot of work left to do. Those of you who ventured down below got a taste of what we're looking at and hopefully that means we can make better preparations. I'm working on opening a new portal based on your energy readings and getting it to stabilize itself so you aren't stuck down there longer than you have to be. May take a few days, but I'm hoping to get a map drawn up, too.

How many of you have been out to Magatus? You might wanna compare notes…the influence started spreading even further. It's better to bring everything and everyone out there back to the city where we can put up forcefields and I can monitor from here.

So what am I saying? I need two teams, a rescue team and an exploration team. Take some time to decide, figure out your skills, organize and arm yourselves. Assignments will go out when you're ready, and when I'm ready.

Oh yeah…and if you're interested in working for me directly? Send me your résumé.

could i bring a tank or would it get stuck in snow ??

Depends on how good the treads are, I guess? My ex's piece of shit car didn't have too many problems up there.

Jesus christ what is with everyone and tanks lately.

i wouldnt b good with a sword u have 2 b strong 4 that tanks r better

I get it, don't get me wrong. Katanas are pretty lightweight, though. And there's rapiers, you don't need to be super strong for those. All kinds of thrusting swords. They're designed to get in between the holes in enemies' armor and go directly for their flesh. You don't have to be strong for that. Just smart. And you're definitely that.

[Compliments! Shinji loves those!! ...but.]

u can use them if ur short??

Probably? They're lightweight swords and a lot of their weight is on the hilt side, I think? My parents never let me use any of the ceremonial swords but that's the idea I got from them.

I really don't think A2 was the kind of person to deal in colichemardes or I'd start hoping for a package. I'll see if I can find one. At the. Sword store.

would u rly get me 1??? ill pay u 4 it

[Assuming it costs like $15 or something.]

I like your enthusiasm, but I literally do not know where to find swords. I don't think I can just buy one online.

I mean, I CAN, but I don't want to be the girl who buys swords online.

well their not gonna sell any 2 me unless i get a fake adult paypal and the last time i did that mom got mad

Yeah, because it's credit card fraud. That's actually a crime.

I'll see if I can find something. I guess I'll just take the hit for my search history.

u probably have worse stuff on there anyway ty tho

That's what incognito is for. Now nobody will ever know the simple math I had to punch into the Google calculator.

y do we even have math classes anymore

Dude, I literally do not know. Never made sense to me in college, either. Even back in 2009 everyone had calculators on their phones, and I guess if you really want to get into complicated shit you need classes, but most of us are super not gonna do that.

Wow, I swore AND told you that school was useless in that one.

ur a super bad influens but i wont tell anybody so ur safe
