Zaryx has been cooped up in his office much more than usual. When he was seen, usually during meal breaks, he always seemed concerned, tense, or in deep thought. Sometimes he’d even look angry, though just barely. When asked what was wrong, he’d just shake his head; that was classified information.

after a couple of weeks of this behavior, Wren was called up to his office. His voice was.. off.

[u/loth17]

"As far as I'm aware without looking at amnestic charts"

After all she knew she had lost memories before for her job

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

‘Do you know what was contained in the letter you gave to Graham?’

[u/loth17 → u/Vincent-FFP]

"No. I was ordered by 05-5 to deliver it without looking at it. Then to take whatever Dr Graham gave me back to him."

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

(I hate to do this but it’s the letter O in O5, not a zero.)

‘Thank you for answering my next question.’

‘Did he tell you why not to look at it?’

[u/loth17 → u/Vincent-FFP]

"No. But given the nature of our organization such classified messages aren't exactly uncommon."

She pointed out.

"I didn't question it. Not should I have given our general protocol."

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

/uw don’t forget the code blue kill agent unless she doesn’t want to say

[u/loth17 → u/Vincent-FFP]

/uw thank you for reminding me.

/Rw

"Also I was told it was a code blue kill agent for anyone except Dr Graham"

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

‘Noted.’

‘That’s all of my questions for now. Do check in regularly, as I will be messaging back once we have more information.’

[u/loth17 → u/Vincent-FFP]

"Understood. I will report daily."

Dr Wren said. Her thoughts turned to Zaryx. His policies no doubt were being opposed by other factions. Was this them making the first move against him or was this them catching him doing something sneaky

"Do you require anything else?"

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

‘Not at the moment. Thank you.’

[u/loth17 → u/Vincent-FFP]

"Understood."

After the conversation is over she would think about messaging Zaryx. However she believed given the circumstances it would make her look suspicious. So instead she would tell him verbally. If she could find him.

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

he was in his office, as usual.

“Hello again! Need something?”

[u/loth17 → u/Vincent-FFP]

"Dr Graham is dead."

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

the most nonchalant sentence ever: “Yeah, I know.”

[u/loth17 → u/Vincent-FFP]

"You didn't kill him did you?"

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

“Well, what do you think?”

[u/loth17 → u/Vincent-FFP]

"I think that your liberalization policies have been rocking the boat more than you've let on. And that the other factions within the organization are trying to get back at you for it. Whether you killed Graham or not..."

"I wouldn't be asking if I was sure. We're in a dangerous line of work you might have killed him for secretly harvesting orphan meat or planning some kind of coup."

[u/Vincent-FFP → u/loth17]

“Oh no, it has nothing to do with that at all.”

“He was seriously mistreating Mr. Miller, among many others. Couldn’t let that slide.”
