WELCOME TO YOUR PRIVATE CHANNEL, AMANDA. FOR SECURE COMMUNICATION, USE 102.92.004.06 *** gameover has joined 102.92.004.06 <gameover> This is Amanda. <gameover> If you need to contact me, do so here. <gameover> DO NOT waste my time with stupid shit. | ||||
<Mello>
Tell me what you need me to do in order for you to assist effectively. I've pledged myself to Her, and I'm willing to shed enough blood to please her if it solves my problem.
I don't beg. Consider this a desperate situation.
<gameover>
Have you even spoken to Her about this?
<Mello>
I need to be able to do it at least twice.
[No. No, Mello hasn't — because he hasn't done enough for Her to request a second favor after the first one she'd granted him without question.]
I'd rather avoid blowing the situation out of proportion. If I can handle it without Her direct intervention, that would be preferable.
<gameover>
Have you ever tried lucid dreaming? I can do my best to hypnotize you, but you should have a backup plan just in case. Plan for every possible eventuality.
<Mello>
Lucid dreaming requires training and like I said: I'm short on time.
[He hesitates before throwing his next idea out there — doesn't matter; it's been advertised all over the fucking network — and if it's the only way, well.]
I can become human easily. I've never been put under though, so I'm not sure how susceptible to it I am. Worth a shot, if you're willing.
[And because everything comes with a price — ]
What do you want in return?
<gameover>
[She doesn't need anything right now, but it never hurts to make people indebted to her for potential future requirements.]
You should definitely become human before we try this. Increase our chances of success.
<Mello>
We have a deal. If it works out the way it should.
My temporary humanity is confined to one place. Have you been to The Red Room in Bavan?
<gameover>
<Mello>
Will you come?
<gameover>
<Mello>
Do you typically respond to attempted generosity with violence?
Impressive.
Consider it done. My people know better than to approach my guests unprompted.
<gameover>
When are we doing this?
<Mello>
