You see the post by Cissnei today about metal pieces being found all over? We haven't left the ship unpatrolled, we're not failing to cover areas, which means finding things? Likely deliberate.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
So they already know these things have been found. Which leaves us with two options: play stupid, or play smart.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Playing stupid might make them overconfident, might lead them to make a mistake. Or instead it might cheat us out of connections we could make if we think like a group.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
Play smart, show the piece around, let whomever placed it know we've got it, and they could still mess up due to nerves, and we've got more minds working on the angles of this thing.

Make it public. Make it known. We're playing smart. Take that as an order if you need to, from one of the leaders of the Green Team, Oak.

One of them. I wonder how connected this is.
FROM: vakarian.garrus@cdc.org
No way to know from just that if they're at fault or it's a decoy. But either way, it's a good find. Nicely done. Where was it?
no subject
by the vents just outside the officer's quarters
what do you want me to do with it
no subject
Bring it up to the observation deck. Let's let people see it, see if more have seen anything like it and just not noticed.
no subject
any names to point me to?
people seeing it is a good idea, but waving it around in public doesn't seem like a great idea to be honest

Yeah i see the post. so you think the weird antler cats aren't the end of this?
FROM: oak.green@cdc.org
you didn't need to make a long speech by the way, just saying go respond to the post would have been fine
but reasoning helps, i guess. i'll do that
no subject
Being told to just do something without an explanation can rankle. But I'll remember in the future that you're good without it.
no subject
i wouldn't go that far. a cliff notes version would be nice, though
if i want a proper speech i'll ask why next time
no subject
What's a cliff notes version?
no subject
FROM: oak.green@cdc.org
just a quick set of notes that summarizes something. nice and short, to the point.
no subject
Not really sure how I could have summarized the other. But I'll keep that in mind.
no subject
if you dont know, forget about it
thanks
