001 | ( VIDEO. ) | JULY 30th

_{[ The feed clicks on and shows a kid appearing no older than 13 seated back in a chair, curled knuckles against his face. His eyes look tired and expression rather thin. He's wearing a uniform of some sort, though pieces of it look tattered or stained. One of his legs bounces in his seat (aren't his shorts cute?) but after a moment of mulling over what to say, he leans forward, hands folding together neatly. ]}

I already lack faith in gathering information from anyone here, and yet, here I am with inquiries. Serious responses only.

_{[ What could this boy possibly be asking for?? Where is the best place to get ice cream? Hardly so. ]}

Has anyone has ever even attempted hacking into any confidential files that could be in the government's system that operates here? Alternatively, if anyone has ever attempted to assassinate the Queen?

_{[ Oh.. what.. ]}

If not, is there any place on this goddamn planet that serves coffee? Decent coffee. Every place here is a shit hole.

_{[ That's it. No thanks for your time or anything. ]}

[ sounding amused: ] These are big questions from such a little boy.

Well, I do not know who serves decent coffee, but I can make any coffee taste the way you like it.

[ She could make any beverage taste like coffee to someone, but that's neither here nor there. ]

[Sonia's new, sure, but this subject disturbs her to her very core.]

This is a serious topic, as I'm sure you're aware, but asking about attempts to commit treason and murder over an open network seems rather...well...imprudent. Wouldn't you do better to ask something like this under the cover of anonymity?

[Haven't you ever heard of the phrase TPO? Sheesh!]

Man, I already told you that we had the best coffee on the planet at McDenny's. Just admit I'm right. Just this once.

Why is everybody asking about assassinations all of a sudden?

[oh boy. She blinks slowly and tilts her head, considering the first half but... She doens't really have answers to that SO]

I don't know about assassination things, but... If it's coffee you need, I could try making you some. My mentor at home owned a coffee shop, so I learned to make it there. I.. .can't promise it'll be amazing or anything, but...

[But it might be better than what's around?? She does make a very slight face though that shows her own distaste with most of the coffee offered here] Most of the places around here don't seem to be able to get it right.

As much as it feels like self-promotion [ And therefore there's an awkward stiffness about his tone. ] I'm opening a cafe.

After two thousand years, I imagine my coffee would suffice. But I can also recommend establishments I deem acceptable.

What, you want to place bets or something? I'd be in.

You sound like a cop trying to pretend he's not a cop.

[You know, besides being so... small? So little. Whatever, that's not the point. The point is:] I know a place with decent coffee. One of those bookstore cafes, but take what you can get. Some of the stuff around here's practically paint thinner.

If any of us had, we would not say so on the open network.

[Temple hasn’t but he has done similar things, back in his own world. And he’s been keeping them secret from the people of Prismatica, as much as he can.]

But no, no one has attempted to assassinate the Queen - since the first Moonblessed arrived in March, anyway. There may have been attempts before then but I haven’t heard about any.

[ the voice that responds is smooth and matter of factly. older, if only because she sounds like she has cigarette smoke coating her lungs. ]

The first two don't have to be separate, you realize. Might even benefit from being merged.

[ it's a suggestion. ]

...And you'd probably want a small diner for the last one, right? I know of a nice place. It's more... French, than American, though. Decent noisettes, if you can believe.

I know of some good places to get coffee, but the other topics...

[He scowls.]

Assassination is a serious step to take. Thus far, I haven't heard of anything that indicates she needs to be overthrown. And while I am curious about what the government might know that they haven't told us...I would advise against taking any actions that might put you on the wrong side of law enforcement.

Coffee stunts your growth. And it tastes bad.

[Just like alcohol. Why can't adults drink things that taste good like soda?]

You'd do better not to ask people to incriminate themselves publicly.

Why? Are you looking for pointers?

[ Something is up, but Moira couldn't put her finger on what. ]

Though as far as coffee goes? I'm also curious, do let me know if you find anywhere halfway decent.

[The voice speaking is robotic and electronic in quality, clearly nonhuman.]

I don't believe I heard of any assassination attempt whatsoever. However, I do not see a reason why she would need to be... assassinated.

[And he's overthrown the government back on his world, people don't just do that for funsies. He's tried hacking into confidential files of course, but he won't be outing himself here. Yet.]

Why the inquiries?

Ciao ciao~

[ a very enthusiastic wave despite the fact that he recognizes that very tired look, but at the moment italy seems to calm after the initial greeting, lazy time is a go ]

I’m not very good in the way of hacking into things like that, but I have a lot of handwritten notes of the research I’ve done on my own if you’re ever interested~

[ can someone so seemingly carefree and lazy be trusted with something like this? his notes seem to be rather thorough if anyone ever looks them over, surprisingly so.

but at the mention of coffee he seems to beam proudly ]

I make cappuccino and espresso myself pretty regularly, I tend to get the beans fresh from the market and do a lot of the preparation and roasting myself. I can’t imagine getting through a day here without several cups a day.

If you’re at all interested I’m willing to help out with sharing.

Are you trying to draw attention to yourself?
If you're genuinely curious wouldn't be better to ask in a less direct way?
Or even in a slightly more subtle way?

As for coffee, I think it really depends on what your definition of a "decent" coffee is.

Ya think about what the repercussions of that would be?

You're not going to be able to just hack into the government's system here, because the tech isn't just tech.

[How does she even know this? Because she's tried. On numerous occasions.]

The Queen hasn't shown herself in public enough to really know anything about her. Why so interested in assassination?

[There's a pause, and then:]

My best friend makes amazing coffee. As does my boyfriend. You could always just pay them for it.

If they haven't yet, you've just made your way onto their terrorism watch list.

[ Riou's a soldier, he knows kids can be dangerous depending on where they're from. ]
