audio; during the valentine's event

[whethertheyshould]

I've done some asking around, and if you're wondering why you were targeted or bitten by the, ah, the so-called 'cherubs', I've pretty much narrowed it down to you being in love. I don't know if trying to not feel loving feelings helps, however. I would say it couldn't hurt to try, but I think what hurts a lot less than that is simply avoiding the areas where they are gathering, which is in the hallways.

Thank you for this information. I believe many workers could use this warning, including former freelancer agents.

[Then he has the nerve to tag York and North in his fucking post].

infailtration bothbarrels, please be careful out there.

What the *** is wrong with you?

Re: text

[myagents]

I heard you and Agent North were attacked. Of course I am aware of your combat abilities but I figured Dr Malcolm's considerate hypothesis and suggestions were worth pointing out and, since many people post in the network everyday and content tends to get buried, I wanted to make sure you would see this post before having to endure another attack.

[Price smiles as he hits send. York knows that he knows that York knows that he knows. It's beautiful.]

I was already in here, and I don't like your implication.

Re: text

[myagents]

I'm afraid I have no idea what implications you are talking about, Agent York.

Re: text

[infailtration]

You're an ***. You know exactly what I mean. Don't tag us again.

Re: text

[myagents]

I do not see how my comment could be harmful in any way, but I will apologize if it makes you feel better.

[York is a very capable person and sure Price insults him in his head every now and then, but that's just what he does when people are being BORING, he likes him as he likes every freelancer and everyone in general, honestly. He's not judging York and North for being in love, he's happy to see it, it seems fun.
It is however absolutely appalling how York being upset at a valid warning and a friendly invite to do get his gay disaster act together. The ungratefulness is evident.]

Then you're an idiot. Don't bother apologizing if you can't even figure out what for.

[ All the callouts on this post are a bad idea, it'll make Jorgmund watch them more closely. ]

Very well, then. Good luck, Agents.

[He's literally been nothing but nice to all of them. A small part of him wishes the cupids would just kill a couple of hypocrites who preach niceness and then can't appreciate help, you know. Not his beloved agents, of course, but damn sometimes they are frustrating to deal with.]

[whethertheyshould]

You do understand I made a public post?

[ In other words, Big Brother is watching, and callouts aren't a helpful thing in this circumstance. ]

[myagents]

Your post does appear to be set as public, yes.

[He answers like it's Ian's fault. Certainly it's not his fault. What is he supposed to tell his gay kids, 'have fun dying'? Unbelievable. Also they all threatened to hurt him as soon as they first met on the Rig for literally no reason, if they like to act scary and intimidating the master might as well leave some crumbs for them to learn.]

[whethertheyshould]

I wonder if you've heard that it was said, "We must all hang together or surely we shall all hang separately."

[myagents]

[Ah yes, feigning innocence, his favourite pastime. To be fair even if he does mean harm, he sometimes has trouble understanding what responses will have a motherfucker killed or not. That's why he studies people.]

I will be more clear here: do not incriminate your fellow New Hires. We must look out for one another in this situation.

Re: locked;

[myagents]

I apologize, I am afraid there must have been a misunderstanding? Agents York and North Dakota were attacked by the cupids together and since they have formed a team I felt they needed to reunite to strategize together in light of the information you have provided. They used to be my agents and I can assure you that they were not in a relationship for all the time I have interacted with them, if that is what you believe I was trying to say, I would not have any interest in declaring such thing. Perhaps I should have phrased my responses more thoughtfully.

[So what if he gets them in trouble? They got him in trouble first by refusing to be adults and not understanding that they all could have still been a family on the Rig, a family that included him too. The torture was never personal, this betrayal from them was. They must either understand that or pay for it. It's a dog eat dog world, and Price is the Queen Bitch.]

[whethertheyshould]

[ Instead of addressing anything about the two agents' relationship, Ian latches onto something else that strikes him about the response. ]

I seem to recall a post on the network where they all yelled at you that they weren't yours.

[myagents]

Yes, they aren't mine anymore. Partially due to the fact that Project Freelancer has been shut down, but some of them even decided to go rogue before the events. Hence why I said they used to be, for context.

[whethertheyshould]

Yes. I do feel like there's more to the protesting than that, however.

[credit_not_blame]

Yeah, York and North agreed that I could be in charge of them, too. Carolina's the only one who turned me down, but that's fine, she's still welcome to hang.

[Is she deliberately rubbing her "acquisition" of the Freelancers in Price's face? Maybe. Or maybe she's issuing a warning that she'll come to their defense now.]

[whethertheyshould]

Indeed? Well, it's good they have someone 'in charge' who's so well-liked.

[ He knows there's more to this than them having some kind of leadership. Just what that is is what he's unsure of. ]

[myagents]

[He's not sure why Ian is entertaining this child - yes, Stacia gets a free pass because she's a minor - but he finds it unamusing.]

Well, if that's all for now, I will go explore and leave you to your activities.

[He means activities in the most infantilizing way possible.]

Please be careful out there.

[They'll see who is going to have the last laugh when the cupids recognize them for what they are, suitable prey.]
