Ino Yamanaka has left the Port.

She was running a flower shop, but I don't know if she had any papers leaving that to someone in the event of her disappearance. As far as I know there are a few other workers from it still here, so whatever happens to it will be left up to their discretion.

If Ino left unpaid bills with anyone, or any affairs that need settling, please let me know-- I can handle them, just let me know. My name is Nill.

[She pauses. Nill rarely addresses the network at large, and it feels a little too somber to only talk about someone disappearing.]

If anyone knows of any job openings, I could use a new job as well. I don't have enough hours at my current job right now to pay all of my bills. I have enough savings right now that I can handle things for Ino, but leaving it like this for very long wouldn't be the best idea.

I've worked in a lot of different places, but I'm not very good behind a register.

It don't have to be fancy, so don't worry too much about it. It's just mostly we eat microwave stuff and that seems like a waste of a nice kitchen.

[reassures]

...That isn't healthy, Jesse.

[hostage]

Yeah, I do a lotta stuff that ain't too healthy.

[reassures]

I know, but...

[Geeze man, at least eat healthy for all the other shit you do.]

I was going to let you pick what I'd cook, but now you don't get a choice.

[a pause.]

The microwave stays unplugged while I'm there, too. I'll be checking it.

[hostage]

You might have to fight Lisbeth.

[reassures]

Lisbeth doesn't scare me.

[hostage]

Really? 'cause she scares me. I definitely wouldn't fight her off the microwave.

[reassures]

I would. And I will, if I need to.

[A pause.]

If she forces me too often, I'll cut the power cord. You can take the money for it out of my pay.

[hostage]

You mean out of your funeral expenses.

[reassures]

Like I said, I'm not afraid of her.

[hostage]

Yet.

[reassures]

Are you trying to scare me?
