Everyone breathing okay?

[One easygoing looking man grins into the camera. He just got his netbook after the bombing ordeal calmed down a bit and he's been fiddling with it all day! Now he knows how to use it and he's so proud of himself.]

Yes? Nice to meet you. The Initiative brought me in to help out this Resistance project of theirs, so I guess that makes us comrades? That's nice. You know what they say about friendship.

[What do they say about friendship, Nick? He has no clue.]

Anyway... I actually had a question. Is there anywhere around here I could find some playing cards? I was talking to someone down in the tunnels last week and thought game night might be a fun thing to do sometime. Maybe poker for some fun prizes? Haha.

[... He does not introduce himself. He thought it might make him mysterious, and it'll be a way to start a conversation later, right?]

There are some.

[aceordisgraced]

What happens to them? Do we get a choice?

[sacrificar]

They are returned to where they came from, or so I've read.

[aceordisgraced]

... That's good! So they get to go home, huh.

[Maybe he can get Trucy home. War is not good for his daughter oh no.]

[sacrificar]

It will be difficult to be certain of that.

[Hate to burst you bubble over there, but...]

[aceordisgraced]

Is it? Why's that?

[sacrificar]

How are we to know that they were truly sent back to their worlds?

video;

[aceordisgraced]

So, there isn't any way to find out? No records or anything like that?

video;

[sacrificar]

We can only ask the few that have experienced it themselves. But even then, their words are all we have.

[The Initiative can rip out anybody from time and space. Who's to say they can't do more?]

[aceordisgraced]

You're telling me people come back, too?

video;

[sacrificar]

Is it that surprising?

video;

[aceordisgraced]

It's neither surprising or unsurprising. But I was hoping it wasn't true. There are a few kids I'd like to send home and all that.

[sacrificar]

To spare them from the fighting?

video;

[aceordisgraced]

Yeah, if that's what they wish for. And anyone else, too.

I mean, why make people fight wars they don't want to fight? I don't know how effective that really will be, to be honest.
