Final Investigation

[It's been about 24 hours since CT was killed. Blaze has made no other moves, and his robots are mysteriously absent.

In fact, it's almost too quiet.

But then there's a note in Pyrrha's PIP that...she didn't write.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

you can call me rox

i can help you get into the pirate's ship

They want to help us get into Blaze's ship... [She says aloud, still looking intently at the screen. Boy is this an interesting morning.]

Well that would be very helpful, Rox.

But I'm sorry. I'm pretty sure there's far too many robots around Blaze's ship for us to get close

but he's getting desperate! :( i think he's done with just taunting you into taking out each other

I think he's getting more then desperate. There's been something wrong with him for the past few weeks.

[She sighs, but obviously Rox isn't going to hear that.] He just personally killed someone he thought was 'It' and now he said he's coming for us. As much as I hate to admit, we don't have many choices right now.

right now there's no robots in the kitchen

there's a storage room in the back of the mess hall with a ladder leading down to the docking bay

if he'd known about it he would've put a guard there

That should definitely take us to his ship.

But how do you know about it?

blueprints for prison ships are public information :)

starfield is a pretty common model

Alright, I can't argue if that's true.

[She could, but their time isn't exactly infinite here. And after seeing what Varric had to ask, she has to raise a particular question.]

Rox, I'm just curious, but do you know Aiden Price?

not personally, but i know that he's the counselor for the inmates of starfield penitentiary

He's not very good at his job, to be perfectly honest with you.

[Glancing over at Varric again...]

Well, do you know where we could find our real weapons? They were taken from us, but when CT died, she was wearing her real armor.

[Aside from his conversation with Fukawa, Varric had been quiet. His expression was tight and his brows furrowed as if he were deep in thought. It was only after a few more messages that he typed something into his own display, and held it up for Pyrrha to read.]

Ask if Rox knows Price.
He said he had an agent.

[As he gestured to the note, he held a finger to his lips. Just in case certain people were listening.]

[Focusing so much on the messages, it takes Pyrrha a moment to look over at Varric. She reads his note, looking up at him as he shushes her.

She nods. She'll ask in a moment.]

[As they wait, Varric continues to struggle with his thoughts. If they're meant to lead a charge, potentially into the mass of Blaze's forces, they'd need weaponry.]

CT had her real armor.
Rox might know where she found it.
Our weapons might be there too.

[shakes her head. Sorry, dad]

Then how-- [But he clamps his mouth shut and nods.

Okay. He'll leave you be now, Pyrrha.]

[Will's getting involved now. Look at all this back seat texting.]

Ask if Rox knows what's happening with Blaze and that oil-like substance he's been coughing up.

[Gives him and Varric a look.

C'mon guys, she's typing as fast as she can.]

[go to your room young la--

oh.

wait.

... never mind.]

[Speaking of which, that's a thing and all but now that you said that...

Poking her head out of the cell...]

Uh... have you noticed the robot population here is suddenly missing?

Now that you mention it... [And she's been thinking about this.] It has been rather quiet around here, hasn't it?

It's totally dead here. I can't see one of them.

[Does that mean...]

Maybe... something happened to him. If he can't operate them, maybe they're just sitting dead somewhere. That's what happened to that dumb bear.

[A GIRL CAN DREAM.]

...It's possible.

[They really can dream!]

If they're all deactivated somehow, it would make getting to the ship simple.

[....A bit too simple.]

...if there's a chance, we have to take it. There are a few of us that can fight. If we create a diversion, the others could go...

[She'd do that for these people.]

If we're careful, and this person really does want to help us, we can all get out of here together.

[She will carry you under her arm!!!]

Really fuckin coincidental that your rescuer sends a fuckin message after like, being trapped here for - for ages, right?

You're all dense.
