So I take it this isn't exactly unusual.

[ And if you wanna know what Adam means with 'this' ... well, the video opens with a closeup of a rabbit, snarling and squirming and hanging off an arm it has bitten into and just won't let go. The person that arm belongs to doesn't sound too bothered, probably because that arm is made of solid, black metal that's not at all sensitive to pain. ]

I was assuming rabies at first, but it seems like the surprise has been spoilt already. I really liked this thing for the whole two hours I had it, but of course we can't go one week without reenacting some trite action flick cliché. Whatever.

[ Yeah, it's still fighting with Adam's augmented arm. Something like a sigh can be heard, and then the sound of a blade being unsheathed (?) before the video cuts out for a minute, black screen, no audio.

When it comes back on, the rabbit's gone. Though the observant watcher might spot a drop of blood or two on one of Adam's arms, because he's now only broadcasting himself. ]

Speaking of action flick clichés, has anyone seen James Bond lately. [ ... ] The guy from Universal Exports that should be around here somewhere, being generally useless. Not the secret agent one that got his balls whipped.

[ IF THAT DOESN'T DRAW YOU OUT JAMES ADAM GIVES UP....... anyway, there's a private text message attached to this post, too. It goes out to Samus, Edgeworth, and Barnaby, and it's pretty much unhackable unless you're really awesome at hacking. ]

I know who shot Takegami. Given it was an emotional act and that it happened over literally nothing, you might want to keep a close eye a girl called Ionae. I'm not sure if the evidence I have is solid enough to apprehend her.

[ The next bit is also private but to Samus only ... ]

Hey.

[ Eloquent. ]

You could look for it here.

Here is transitory. People leave constantly, and arrive constantly, and there is no one else from my world here.

What would I look for?

I know that. But I've realized that sitting and moping in a corner doesn't help, either.

Friends, for one.

I...have people I speak to with some regularity.

See. Keep that up.

How? I was not attempting to do anything in the first place.

How? You keep talking to them. Keep doing stuff with them. That's not hard to do.

I don't do things with them.

Then maybe you should start.

...And what would I attempt to do?

You meet up to do something fun together, or just to talk. Do you not know what constitutes as 'fun activity'. It can be as simple as grabbing a drink together, or play a game.

I have never really had fun. Not that I remember. Not the way other people think of it.

Sometimes accessing the Shinra the network was...fun. I suppose. I was free when I was in there. For a little while.

Then this must be heaven compared to that, and a perfect opportunity for you to experiment. There's bound to be something you actually enjoy doing. Find a hobby, maybe.

I have been working on something but I do not believe anyone would want to help.

Two things if I am being specific.

Those being?

I have been collecting parts for my dive terminal and- [She hesitates suddenly.]

The other is...somewhat difficult to explain.

... I think you mentioned that, yeah.

Difficult how?

It is only that I am not certain why I am doing it.

You don't need a reason for everything. You don't have to justify the things you do to anyone.

I always have before.

'Before'. It doesn't have anything to do with 'right now'.

...I suppose not.
