Okay, what are we doing about all the people who went missing? Are we really sitting on our butts doing nothing? Did they all go back home? Did the government snatch them all up and hold them in their own Beast Island?

I don't care about most of you, but I want answers and I bet a bunch of you do, too. Where are we supposed to be getting them?

Not this government. It's something back home. Criminals, traitors and deserters get sent to Beast Island.

[Wow that's the type of thing Ren would be uprising against haha---]

That sounds harsh.

I think the best we can do is try to figure it out. There's no sign of them all disappearing either. Usually from what I've been told it's more of a few people. The fact so many are gone is very strange.

I don't really have a power that could help us in this case.

Traitors get a harsh punishment, how surprising. [It's meant to terrify people into not betraying the Horde, and you know, usually it works.]

Besides, that's not what matters. We're trying to find out where all the missing people went. If that means I need to start breaking tech until someone pays attention, maybe I will.

Depends what they are traitors of.

[Because Ren was a traitor to society at one part. Still this isn't important for now, this can continue later. As they said, this can come later.]

Is that one of your powers? Super strength? I don't think smashing things will get them to collaborate with us.

[There is some eye-rolling because she doesn't really care about his opinion on Beast Island or traitors. Just makes her wonder i he's someone worth involving if he that's what he's focused on.]

Me having super strength doesn't have anything to do with what I was talking about. I said I know how to break tech. And this world runs on tech.

[He just shrugs at the eye-rolling, idly pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose.]

See, breaking usually means smashing things where I come from. Thought you were going to break everything until someone had the answer you were looking for. So it's more like hacking into things then?

I said what I meant. I break tech. It stops being tech and doesn't work anymore.

[Right...]

So what's your plan? Got a target in mind?

[It's the best way she can describe technology literally falling apart in her hands into basic components that she doesn't even always know what to do with.]

I'm not airing all of that out here. I don't even know if I can trust you.

That's fair. I'm not sure about you either.

[He tried. You'd be surprised how many people are just open to planning like that.]

It doesn't seem like the type of thing I'd do, but we could always meet to talk if you'd like to see what type of person I am. Maybe for next time.

[If you get what he means by that.]

I'm not gonna pretend I care about most of the people who went missing just to make you trust me. I know who I'm looking for.

[Catra is the only person Lonnie is concerned with.]

And I don't want a next time, but whatever. Not like we get a choice what they do to us around here. [More people disappearing? Another round of no knowing what the heck is going on? I's the last thing she wants.]

It only takes one.

[Any friends in the same situation, he could understand.]

From what I've heard and seen so far from what little time I've been here, I'd rather prepare than wait.

[He's trying to say he wants to help but without giving it away.]

Hmph. [She agrees even if she's a bit too grumpy--on edge--to admit it outright.]

Ready for anything, huh? If that next time comes, maybe I'll see if you show up.

[She's not hiding who she is here. If he wants to take this to a quieter venue, give her a sign or make the first move.]

[Let the power of friendship flow through you -- wait wrong series.]

Yeah. Meanwhile I'll probably be going to do some research at a cat cafe I was suggested recently.

[He provides the name. No, he doesn't know anything about Catra, it was just a weird series of events of someone suggesting it to him a short while ago.]

If you ever want a coffee, let me know. Good luck in your search.

[Yeah Lonnie knows exactly what that cafe is. Her eyes widen for just a moment before her jaw tenses a bit. Then she's back to looking like she doesn't care at all.]

Yeah, I know of the place. Maybe we'll run into each other there sometime.
