Okay. What the hell is going on? First the explosion and then robot sharks? And now the government's doing the whole not telling us shit thing.

Look at this bullshit.

[she puts up an image of one of the mechanical sharks (blurred due to motion) about to pounce on a swimmer.]

Who blew up the train and who's sending sharks to Miami?! [you know. just in case mechanical sharks in Miami isn't ridiculous enough]

Bet they just want us to seem useful.

[He's not counting on it being anything but the government itself.]

There was crossed out shit when we went into Nonah.

[attractedtodarkness]

What do you mean crossed out?

[darkspider]

"Maiden" was crossed out. Did you catch the rest, too? "We did it better." Whatever the hell that means.

[attractedtodarkness]

I saw the maiden. Not the other one. Where did you see it?

[we did it better? Definitely sounds like a grudge]

The sidewalk down below. I bet there's footage online of it.

[That is, if the government didn't clean it up.]

Someone's pissed about a train.

[attractedtodarkness]

Or about us using it.

[darkspider]

[There's a grunt from Kaine after a moment.]

I doubt it. The words didn't make sense. "We did it better." What the hell does that have to do with us sitting on a train?

[attractedtodarkness]

Think someone stole the blueprint of the train from them or something?

[darkspider]

Could be. Do you think the Russians could get in and do that?

[attractedtodarkness]

There's always spies.

[darkspider]

Heh, maybe. I'm not so sure.

[Though it does leave him to wish that he had a spider sense.

Something tells him it would help here a lot.]

[attractedtodarkness]

Why not? From what I remember about the cold war, there are spies in both countries.

There might even be one right next to us and we wouldn't know it.

[which now that she thinks about it, is really creepy and makes her frowns slightly]

[darkspider]

I don't trust anything that they're telling us. That's why.

Wouldn't it be easy for them to screw us over and claim it's the Russians? Something to make it seem like we've got some kind of purpose?

[attractedtodarkness]

I don't know. I can't say for sure whether it's from the inside or out. If they're doing it just to give us purpose, why's the media massacring them and us? It doesn't accomplish anything. [a pause. She really isn't sure] Right?

[darkspider]

Tides can turn. Maybe the media hasn't been controlled yet. Maybe they haven't had a reason to just yet.

[attractedtodarkness]

This is making my head hurt. Politics is such bullshit.

[darkspider]

Heh. I'm not disagreeing with you.
