Man. Just when I swore I'd never ever get involved with anything SERO ever puts out there that's gimmicky, and then...

"Thermographic Night Vision Contacts".  What are those, they help you see better in the dark, but without goggles or anything? Do they really work? For stuff like...monster tracking, like Darwin-work, you think that'd really help a lot? Be useful?

I'm not even allowed in the arcade, but maybe I could borrow Riku's ID and get in on a late-entry team, if they're still takin' em. Is anybody here any good at laser-tag?

Finally, somebody who's done this before! Is it easy?

...well, I guess we could look into it- you're right though, it does sound exactly like what SERO would do.

[presspasskey]

Depends who you're playing against, mostly. Using the equipment's easy, though.

[ Lois is being a wee bit arrogant here, but that's not unusual. ]

Hey, doesn't mean we can't grab 'em. At the least, we could take them to a secure--and unidentifiable--location and see if there aren't some techies who can scan for it, disable whatever needs it.

[madeinoblivion]

So do you have any tips?

Yeah. I guess I know a guy who could probably check it out.

[presspasskey]

Don't get shot?

More seriously, maybe have a huddle with teammates before hand, you'll want a strategy. Make sure to stay in touch with them, pick a leader because otherwise the arguments can and will go on forever, and you can raise objections--but when you get your orders, take 'em. Dissent in the ranks doesn't win anything. If you've got enough, have a scout, and figure out where the other teams' weak links are.

[ Lois stops, realizing that she is going way too much into military mode. ]

Yeah, I may know a guy too.

[madeinoblivion]

Well, it's 3 on 3. Now much ranks, but a team captain's probably a good idea. Thanks.

[presspasskey]

Trust me, three's enough for ranks. [ It's said with audible cynicism from experience. ]

[madeinoblivion]

Well- Korra's the pro-athlete, so she should probably be leader.

[presspasskey]

And if she hasn't before, it'll be a good learning experience.

[madeinoblivion]

If it's not just a lesson in 'how fast can you get punked at something you've never tried before'

...but first's a charm, right?

[presspasskey]

First time's always a charm of some kind.

[madeinoblivion]

Then maybe we'll have beginner's luck.

Hey, actually, if you do manage to get them, I really would love to see them, or the results of it. Chances are good it'd be a good lead on some new, sick angle of SERO's.

Re: --> private

[madeinoblivion]

A new, sick angle? Uh... Okay? I'll... I'll keep my eye out, and play hard, alright?

[presspasskey]

Hey, if they're going to be running experiments on unsuspecting kids? That is pretty sick. And great expose material.

G'luck out there.

Thanks.
