[jaunt] [mid-to late week 1] A deepening mystery

[seestheworld]

So about Dara...

I wanted to see if I could find out what she was doing before her disappearance on the off chance that could point towards her current whereabouts, so I did a Sift on all the relevant data I could find. Which probably means I'm on a list somewhere now, but... anyway.

We already know she was working on the Phileon project - specifically, she was working on advanced biology and S. Tech research and development, in particular S. Tech containment and countermeasures. It looks like she left voluntarily and very suddenly, and went to great lengths to hide from AEGISCorp when she did so, even calling in a bunch of favors from friends working for AEGISCORP's biggest rival, Munghungwa Dynamics - who, incidentally, still have offices on Mars.

AEGISCorp is unsurprisingly looking for her, as are the ESDF, who were also pretty surprised to see her go. There's a phrase the ESDF using in reference to that operation: "Colorless green ideas sleep furiously."

This is a field Dara has loved since high school. In theory, this should have been her dream job. And she didn't just walk away: she ran.

...Great.

[She's quiet for a moment. Then:]

You know, if that mech's got any sort of perspective at all, I should be able to read it.

If you want to do that, that would be nice and possibly helpful.

I'll see what I can do. Might need to get closer to the Phileon itself, though.

[thornsofmalkav]

I'm happy to let you in the hanger.

[razorblade_empress]

That'd be really helpful.
