 [Kitty has spent most of her day trying to find out as much as possible since getting fished out of the ocean- but at the end of it, the kedan were amazingly unhelpful, there, before depositing her in her 'suite'. It's in a tree! She spent a bit of time exploring it thoroughly, since a part of her, Wolf, was comforted to an extent by this, somewhat more than she would expect, but now that that's over, it's time to get to finding out what exactly is going on.  So, to the console! Research is always helpful, as is poking out on your own...

She hesitates at first, but given the option, she'll always go with audio- she doesn't really feel up to video right now- even though it's been years since she's resolutely avoided the idea of being on camera, and going with something similarly familiar will definitely help.

Her voice sounds nice, relatively calm, and very present- definitely belongs to someone used to working on the audio side of things.]

Are we really on some kind of mystical between-states island sized turtle with a city on its back? [A very short pause of consideration.] I guess that  question marks me as new, doesn't it? Does anyone have any more information than what the kedan say? They weren't really helpful on that topic.

The police use lethal force? And civilians? [Okay, the last isn't so new to her, since Detective Hardin tends to pull her in to help, but it isn't to fight. And if they're allowed and permitted to use lethal force, that makes it sound less like 'recruit' and more like 'pressgang'. She picks up on the bitterness.]

Did they recruit anyone you know?

Without hesitation, from what I've heard. [which isn't so different from back home. There's a reason Steph doesn't trust cops]

They... pretty much recruited everyone. Hang on. [she sends Kitty a link to Evandau's message] There's what the head of the police force had to say on the matter.

[After reading the message, Kitty doesn't sound pleased when she responds:]

I'll make sure to stay off their bad sides. [On one hand, she's used to lethal force being used against threats and troublemakers- but not by the police.]

It looks like it was forced for some people? I don't like the idea of being ordered around. [Something she's had experience with. The expectation of people doing things just on his say so reminded her of vampire Masters- the ones that control cities.]

Good idea.

The big missions were only for some, but we were all "authorized" - [It's pretty obvious she's making airquotes around that word] - to act, and I think it's pretty fucking manipulative to offer us money for it, considering when we get here we literally having nothing but the clothes on our backs.

[She's kind of angry about that. Plus it sits uneasily with her that she got paid for being a vigilante; the money is stil tucked away somewhere safe, until she decides what to do with it.]
