It has been quite the few days, hasn't it been, Vatheon? That conversation appearing on the network --just who had posted that, anyway?-- the experiment and then the collapse of the bubble and the evacuation. It certainly kept everybody's hands quite busy and full. But now that things are looking at little more calm, with far fewer trips needed to ferry things from down in the bubble up to the island, Station Master makes his move, abandoning his post to seek out people. Who? Well, just about anyone. He seems to avoid groups, instead seeking out people while they are alone, whether wrapped up in some activity, or moving from on place to the other. His purpose? Unclear for now, but if you are a foreigner and you are on the island, you may very well find yourself with a sudden Station Master at your side.

How will you respond?

"Oh no, I know we're being watched. But it sounds like your idea isn't exactly something the people monitoring us would like."

That's the read he's getting on this, at least. Shiro holds no loyalty to them, though, so he can be easily swayed either way.

"I think they would not... appreciate me taking initiative in this manner. And quite frankly, I'd rather not have them find out I was involved in it."

"Trust me, they're going to find out eventually. The more you want to keep a secret, the faster it gets let out. But I think we can manage to keep it quiet until after your plan takes place. It's easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission, right?"

"Oh yes, I imagine they will. But when they do, I'd rather it be on my terms, and mine alone." He smiles, with rather less joviality to it and more steel.

It is always the old men you have to be wary of.
