28 ❄ ( VIDEO; CONSOLE )

[ Jack's taking some time out of his evening to address something that's drawing rather close. As fun as participating in the Mystery Games has been, he feels like someone should maybe point out the elephant on the turtle. He's seated at one of the consoles in the Welcome Center, the recognizable backdrop visible behind him. ]

Sooo... that super-formal Justicar lady sounded like she means business. Is there like-- I don't know, a plan or something? Has anyone even attempted to let the Chihuelans know that someone's coming? Wait, are we even picking sides in that?

[ He runs a hand through his white hair, causing it to spike and settle. At least he looks better in the face of the oppressive outside heat, and less like he's about to melt. ]

Like I'm not in any way favouring the "immediate execution" thing, but if we're not going to stop this group that's coming, then we should be trying to help the others. Doing nothing seems like we're... almost as bad as they are.

It would make sense, yeah.

Oh? [ Jack grins; it's audible in his voice. ]

Guess we should get right on that.

[seismometrics]

Then I'm probably putting my bets into some combination of both. At least unless I hear anything better.

[Her grin broadens in response to his, grinning back.]

"We," huh? Does that mean you're coming?

[Actually, she's good with that -- better to have a couple of people around when you have the possibility of walking into a nest of people who want to stay hidden.]

[wintershepherd]

Why not? It'd be kind of rude for me to suggest the idea and then back out, right?

[seismometrics]

Pretty much.

[No compunction about saying it. He asked -- even if it was rhetoric. Her continued grin is completely cheerful, though.]

Meet you where?

[wintershepherd]

South gates of the city sound all right?

[ He wasn't sure what sector she was in, although with the tram lines, it wasn't nearly such a commute. Or flight, in his case. ]

[seismometrics]

Works for me.

[She's in the Sky Sector, but walking doesn't matter to her much either if it comes down to it.]
