[You have one new direct Spit!]

@SkepticJaycee: Hey, guys.
Do you remember those conspiracy-theory fan forums I told you about?

Sending a message back!

Hi, it's Jane.
And yes, I do. What about them?

[theoverview]

Hello, Jane!
They're talking about something I think might be some kind of lead.
Apparently something leaked about InterGal moving some Airlocked assets.
The rest of the fans just aren't talking much about it because they know they won't be able to get photos of new sets or anything.

[cyan_maid]

[. . .

You know that could be monetary assets or office locations but Jane really doubts it's anything but a whole assload of comatose bodies.]

Assets.
Alright.
Do you have a link to the post? I think I ought to take a look.

[stitch_in_time]

Any chance the leak's genuine, you think?
-Dr.

[Almost no way this is anything but a trap, given Rox's comments about hunting down pirates, but might as well ask.]

[induality]

[She doesn't have any place in this venture-- technology and social media and computers and phones-- none of that is her forte. But she's absolutely lurking in case the others need her and...

To absorb what's going on through others.]

[cyan_maid]

[Oh please lurk away. In fact, Jane will tilt whatever device she's using towards Fukawa so she can see the responses.]

[empathiser]

[ hi jane, someone's lurking over your other shoulder. probably not as closely as fukawa, but definitely with interest.

he's fine with tech, but is more interested in following this conversation for the moment. ]

[cyan_maid]

[Once Fukawa has her fill of looking at screen, she will tip it towards Will. She is a kind soul who shares information.]

[daughterofthemark]

[IT'S A SHOULDER-OVERLOOKING PARTY!]

[theoverview]

Sure. Here you go.

[It's a link to - oh, god, the website is white text on dark gray and it's awful.

But otherwise, it's pretty much what he said. There's more detail here that he probably would have gotten around to giving you: the "assets" are supposed to pass through Presley Interstellar Spaceport tomorrow. The poster claims to work at the spaceport, though not in a significant role, and has even provided the gate number.]

[cyan_maid]

[HEY THERE here is a screen take a look at it, we don't have much info yet but i'm sure it's coming]

[theoverview]

I don't know.
The person who posted it isn't anyone I know, but they've been a forum member about as long as I have, I think.
Maybe a little longer.

[empathiser]

[ Jane is a good, information sharing girl, thank u Jane. ]

Assets...

... They said they were only temporarily suspending the next round of the show, didn't they?

[cyan_maid]

[OH JEGUS FUCK

Well them's the breaks right? Jane's eyes narrow as she reads, logging the info in her mind.]

So then this is definitely something physical then...whether it be a person, or an item, or a suitcase of money...
Or something else.

[If Jane does a search for the Presley Interstellar Spaceport and the apparent gate number, will she be able to find out more about what kind of ship is leaving and where it's going? Because she's going to pull up another tab and do just that. Millenial, natch.]

[refusedtoleave]

[Ah yes, the computer thingamabob is being crowded around. Something must be happening.

So she's watching from several foot away. Just in case someone suddenly turns and runs away crying.]

[daughterofthemark]

A person... do you suppose these "assets" could be the new Champions?

[tokencanadian]

[Hmm? It's a party over here, it seems.]

Either that, or possibly something specific they want to add to a new season.

[stitch_in_time]

Could go either way, then.

[Yeah, looking over the link Jane got, this reeks of trap. But again, one they probably don't have much choice but to risk it for.]

Thanks Jayce. And keep yourself safe.

[serrata]

It's more likely than not, I think.

[ that comes from Rii-san, who's following along with this on her spmartphone (space smart phone) ]

I imagine that whatever location they've set up for all this won't be the same place they pull us all into this world. It'd be too risky.

[cyan_maid]

Actually...I'm wondering if it's our friends.

[Our dead, comatose friends.]

[cyan_maid]

Natsuhi, did you want to see?

[hi srs mom guess who noticed you]

[theoverview]

If you were to ask me, I think I would say that they probably are not with the network.
They have a lot of posts, at a lot of different times.
And, looking through their history, it seems like they used to be involved on the ARG side of things.
I think a plant would have joined the conspiracy theorists right away, don't you?




Thanks. You too.

[theoverview]

[You can find that the gate definitely exists, but there's no listed flights coming or going at that time!

Of course, all the listed flights you can view are passenger flights rather than cargo flights. If cargo flights come and go from here - which seems likely, considering? - their operations aren't publicly listed.]

[neverheardofhim]

[ don't mind this dwarf staring warily at the screen. ]

Be careful, Cupcake. Could be trouble.

[ but he's not saying no, either. That ship could have CT and Mako on it. ]

[cyan_maid]

From what I remember, yes.

[Fucking assets.]

Perhaps they have to move whatever this might be in order to get it going. But why risk the information getting out? Why not just use people they have on hand to move things, and not go a public route?
