[laminae]

if she even thinks about eating you i'm stabbing her

oh
ok yeah

[That's valid given... everything.]

so i guess you're stuck slogging through boring junk until they let you go

[droptheious]

Thanks, Bärchen, I appreciate the sentiment.

Yup. Just a little science grunt, that's me. Honestly, I think they mostly want to keep me from doing more experiments OUT of their sight.

[God, he HATES lying to Fern, he makes a mental note to make it up to him later. ]

...Some of the people here are okay though.

[laminae]

you're welcome!

so they're a bunch of lameos
you're a great scientist, they shouldn't try to stop you

[He really has no clue.]

seriously? it sounds like they suck

[droptheious]

I think they're more concerned about me blowing up THEIR labs.

No. I mean. The people at the top suck. They're just awful. But everyone else? They're just...people. Just doing what they have to do to get by.

[laminae]

oh
well
isn't that just a risk of doing good science?

seriously? they aren't like
evil minions
or something?

[droptheious]

It is, but they are teaching me a thing or two. To make it a little safer. So I can still do good experiments but with less chance of killing everyone around me.

Most of them are just regular people trying to make a living. They know Zodiac isn't the best place to work for, but it's the best place to protect them from everything that happens here.

[One of those things being HIM, they made that very clear. Which...fair, honestly. ]

[laminae]

i guess that's a pretty good thing, then

geez
i never thought much about Zodiac but i know they're not popular on our phones
dunno if people would like hearing the guys they're making out to be their enemies are normal just like them

[droptheious]

Probably not. I mean, Zodiac as a company hasn't exactly been great since we got here. But...I don't know.

It feels weird now. I don't really know how to deal with it now I'm putting names and faces to the people who work for them.

[They're not anonymous peons anymore. They're Real People and it's starting to hit different. ]

[laminae]

you're torn, huh?

hmmm
i wonder if they're like us
doing stuff because they got a lot of stuff going on

[droptheious]

Yeah. I know it sounds weird but. I don't know.

I think we've been hating a whole bunch of people when it's only the ones at the top who are the real enemy here. And I think so, yeah. They've got homes and families to provide for. They're just trying to do that. It feels wrong to hate them for that.

[laminae]

thaaaat sounds like a big ol can of worms
just so many worms dude
people aren't going to want to hear 'hey guys it turns out those people you hate are totes normal and you shouldn't hate them'

[droptheious]

I don't plan on saying anything just yet. I need to finish working here anyway first. Maybe afterwards and just...see what happens. I don't think I can say just...nothing after this.

[But equally, he doesn't want to kick the beehive while he's still INSIDE of it. ]

[laminae]

yeah, that might be the best plan
that gives you time to figure out what to say too
probs not a great idea to throw "hey you donks you're so wrong about Zodiac and i'm right here's why no questions" at people

[droptheious]

Yeah that's-

They really wouldn't take it well if I did it that way. I'll figure something out. I hope.

[laminae]

you will
i know you will

[droptheious]

Thanks, Fern. I really appreciate your faith in me.
