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.

[ 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. ]

[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.]
