I know I've said it before, but please remember to bring a partner if you go off to explore this new world.

I know not all of you are used to this yet, so whether you're old or new don't hesitate to ask any questions. My personal frequency is 101.0110

[Should you want to talk in a more private manner.]

Okay. Now I don't know how any of you feel about this, but I'd really like to help the "human resistance" somehow. Unfortunately, the only way I can think of to find them is by causing a ruckus, and if that happens innocent people might somehow get hurt.

If anyone has any better idea I'd like to hear them. And if you think I'm being stupid, just save it. I don't want to hear about it right now.

You'd be surprised how quickly trouble like that will find you if you start asking questions around shady places.

[ That may still fall under "ruckus", but they wouldn't be the ones starting it. ]

[dorkypantsuit]

You're saying it will be easier than I think.

But more dangerous than I think as well.

[He knows it'll be dangerous, but if something happens to him, well that's fine.]

[atouts]

I am. [ Good man, quick on the uptake. ] So the real question is, are you really willing to risk yourself to contact this resistance?

[dorkypantsuit]

Yes.

[No hesitation.]

[atouts]

And your friends?

[dorkypantsuit]

What about them?

[atouts]

Unless you were planning on looking all by yourself, they'll be risking the same.

[dorkypantsuit]

If they come that's their own choice. They know the danger as well as anyone.

[atouts]

Hm. As you say.

[ Which sounds very 'uh huh, sure they do' without him actually saying it. ]

Well then, provided I can find a replacement for something in this Matrix we're visiting, I may be able to help narrow it down for you.

[dorkypantsuit]

[He doesn't like that tone at all, but he also doesn't like arguing, so he leaves it at that.]

A replacement for what?

[atouts]

A deck of cards, that's all.

[ Like it's something really that innocent. ]

[dorkypantsuit]

Cards?


What do you need those for?

[atouts]

For something that I don't care to discuss over the radio.

[dorkypantsuit]

Sorry.

Well, I'm not sure how prevalent those are in their world, but it's worth a shot.

[atouts]

If it's a version of Earth, it shouldn't be too difficult. Whether they'll work with me in such a place, though, is something we'll just have to hope for.
