It's been brought to my attention (again) that some of you are looking for compensation for the work you're doing. I'm open to that. So tell me, Retrospecters, what is it that you're looking for? Money? Answers? None of the above? I'm all ears.

The scouting project seems to be working out okay. I don't know if any of you have found a place that's really good to relocate or recover but maybe we should talk about that, too.

…finally, bit of a morality question for you.

What's the priority here, you think? Working on chasing Vanderweele down this rabbit hole of a wild goose chase (wow that is too many animal analogies), or memory recovery of the company itself? Both of them are about as convoluted as you think, but not impossible.

Wait, not finally. One more thing since someone brought it up: in case you haven't noticed yet, you might want to pay attention to the things you've managed to bring back because, and I hate to make it sounds real drastic, but the fate of the world kinda depends on it? Just a little. Welcome to your destiny, everybody.

Anyway discuss. I'm back in the office, so drop by if you need something.

I want all the money that the company is worth, a nice apartment, and a Ferrari. Get to it! I won't wait forever while you mess around on the internet avoiding real work.

Do we want Vanderweele to pay, or Retrospec to pay, or the worlds to be restored? If it's a pick one out of three, of course the answer goes to the worlds. Answers, Justice, or just Peace?

But I think we can get more out of the deal.

Thought I was all about killing the shit out of Vanderweele, but he's falling down my priorities a little.

Pretty sure the compensation we get is to stay alive. All the money in the world doesn't fuckin' matter if there's no world for tomorrow. Much as I hate sounding like a fucking narc, let's do the job and we'll see what else we need for pay at the end of it.

Chase him down a rabbit hole? Put him back where he was kept before? No. How about we create a new prison for him. Get some Dementors from my world and have them do a number on him. Give him a kiss.

Because Destiny can take it's sorry excuse for a gift and shove it up it's ass. I don't want it!

I'm honestly not sure what that second option really means. I just want the option that won't make me miss my finals at this point.

Vanderweele is going to die.

I don't care what everyone else's priorities are and what the rest of you plan on doing. It doesn't take all of us to kill him. If I have to do it alone - without help from you, Mr. Carlisle, as I've never required that - then so be it. If others choose to come with me, then so be it.

I mean, I'd just like it if the world didn't end

For compensation, can you just pay for the rest of my tuition? That'd be great!

Well. Well Well...getting paid for this now? Let's discuss it AFTER the job is done.

So whatever keeps our world in one peace, hard to spend our payday if the world is gone.

If the fate of the world really is at stake, I'm not sure we should be squabbling over getting paid.

Though perhaps a little less ambiguity would help? It seems like an awful lot of guesswork for something with such high stakes.

tbh I probably wouldve had a different answer to this a couple months ago
But I just want to make it so the universe doesn't end.
And to see my family again.
I don't know if it makes sense to ask for anything more than that.
