Owl Sector Records: Difference between revisions

CY6: It's not their strong suit. They’re not good at staying off my table, either. Stinkers.

RAM: Officially, the Vanguard suggestion of quarantine was implemented and shortly afterwards reversed due to irreparable ineffectiveness. Unofficially, they laughed at Quist. Refer to Quist’s notes, which will be released to all of the Owl Sector after appropriate redactions. I remind the Sector that public records can be read by children; please word reports accordingly. Next steps?

SHU: I don’t want to see the effects of this tech mite on those without the Traveler's Light. I’ll talk to Ikora.

SHU: I’m Liaison to the Vanguard. It’s my job. Besides, I’m irresistibly charming.

SHU: The great Ikora Rey doesn’t want to know?

QUI: Did you see this dispatch of Berriole’s?

SHU: Thank you, thank you. Really, it’s too much.

: "You're running prototypes in parallel because it's cheaper and faster," he said. "No ethics board on Earth would approve. But I don't have a choice. I’m neck-deep in debt to Clovis Bray."

QUI: I’d forgotten how heavy and sweaty these were.

RAM: Truth be told, I’m braver with the suits on.

RAM: We’ll improve the design. Eventually. But they work. Berriole’s got the most delicate tasks, and she manages.

IR: Was that Saladin who just stormed out? He’s been on edge lately.

CY6: Don't mind him, he’s always like that. Have you seen Shaxx? His poor Crucible. "What is this stuff? Get it out of my Crucible!"

IR: You’d think he’d appreciate increased aggression.

We don’t know what this tech mite can do—travel along communications lines and in data packets, say—so the Owl Sector has decided to cut all but two emergency connections between City and Tower. My screens are fixed on the transmission map and no longer can be pointed toward home.

RAM: We had a bet. He said that'd be the first thing you'd ask. He’s still unconscious.

IR: My Hidden are at your command. We’ll do whatever’s necessary. Have you any idea what a cure might look like?

RAM: We’ll have to be more careful. What's Berriole's latest?

ZAV: I propose tightening restrictions for the safety of City residents. And we should stay vigilant. Dr. Shirazi's notes suggest other undesirable or unexpected effects, in addition to those we’ve encountered.

CY6: It can’t be that civilian in the hospital wing, can it?

CY6: I’m just funning, Zavala.

"Acting Liaison Ramos," she said. I didn’t need to hear more. Almost took off my respirator, it was so wet. But that would put two principals of the Owl Sector in the hospital wing. And I need to be out here. Looking.

QUI: So what's the hitch? Where’s Shun?

: After I sent my research staff home, I entered Clovis Bray’s data isolation chamber with borrowed credentials. I had to know. My predecessor’s annotations are sparse, but I believe the data from previous trials show mortality rates of 50-60% for the last generation of injectable biotech. I should have been informed of this.

QUI: Everything. You missed everything. Eva’s cooking, dancing Cabal, the man in the moon setting up shop in the Traveler.
