003 [VIDEO] Anonymous Location

[Mark can be seen sitting at one of the many internet cafes in the Earth sector. With Eve gone, he had to go back to these to post to the network as Mark, as his console belongs to "Invincible". Gotta try to have that secret identity. He smiles and gives a dorky little wave.]

So uh, if we were back on Earth it would be pretty close to Halloween, wouldn't it? Uh, those of you from Earth, I mean.... And Halloween is nothing without horror movies--especially zombie movies. As I don't think moves are an option here, I'm trying to get my horror fix somewhere else. Suggestions??

[And with that important message out of the way, he changes the filter.]

[Filtered to Bianca Reyes]

Hey, uh, Mis--Bianca, sorry. Do you might if I stop by later? I uh, have something for you.

[shorttempered]

Yeah, but at least that made at least some sense...

[alpha_squad_leader]

How did it make sense?

[shorttempered]

Look, I'm not saying I agree with them, but... all of a sudden, after all of us show up, the food starts running out. It's not a logical leap to assume it has something to do with us, especially when people are hungry and scared.

[alpha_squad_leader]

I don't know. It would have made more sense if it happened sooner. You know, when the first of us started arriving. I heard some people were around a good long while before the rationing stuff.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[shorttempered]

Yeah but how many of them were there at the beginning vs. how many of us were here when the rationing started?

Again, I'm not condoning it, but I mean I can at least understand their logic....

[alpha_squad_leader]

Maybe...or considering the cause of the shortage to begin with, it could have just been our enemy influencing things to try to take us out.

[He shrugs.]

Then again I could just be feeling a bit bitter after getting jumped by a whole mob full of angry kedan.

Anything's possible, especially what we do know about Never-Speak-His-Name.

I got hit with rocks, I feel your pain.

[alpha_squad_leader]

It's something to keep an eye out for now for sure.

At least it wasn't a big, dumb talking rock. [He smiles a bit, joking now.]

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[shorttempered]

And here I thought that guy was your friend.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[alpha_squad_leader]

He is. His idea of a wake up call is to explode right next to your bed though.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[shorttempered]

[Laughs a little at that.] Are you sure you're his?

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[alpha_squad_leader]

Positive. If I weren't he wouldn't have bothered trying to wake me up.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[shorttempered]

Just checking.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[alpha_squad_leader]

I'm glad you care. [Vic grins.]

Really, Santo and I may seem odd but he is my best friend. We've been through a lot and I trust him with my life.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[shorttempered]

I believe you. Just messing with you.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[alpha_squad_leader]

[He laughs a bit.]

Three of us should hang out sometime. Grab a lunch or something.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[shorttempered]

That works for me. Say the word and I'm there.

[Video: Encrypted 55%]

[alpha_squad_leader]

Great. I'll give you a call when me and Santo can come meet up.
