The post office is pretty convenient, aside from being run by murderous sadists. You can return whatever you want for full a refund like any ordinary order service. It's annoying I had to give up my buster again, but getting my hand back is convenient. Losing a robotic hand is one thing, but the problems with losing one as a human is more than I

I haven't heard of such things. People have been kind and helpful to me.

[an_zero]

A child was kidnapped and at least two people were murdered in the last few weeks.

[ergaleomancer]

Ah. Well, this is the virtue of keeping one's self out of trouble, isn't it? I recall hearing something said on the phone now that you mention it...

[an_zero]

I doubt any of the victims were at fault, so it's not a matter of keeping yourself out of trouble.

...If you are concerned about keeping yourself out of trouble, keeping up on these sorts of incidents would do you some good.

[an_zero]

Normally, yeah.

[an_zero]

There are a few here. Anything wrong with that?

[he_come_to_town]

So the story about these guys making people hurt themselves to get their stuff back is true?

[an_zero]

Yeah. Seems like the people running the place don't quite get the intended meaning of 'no pain, no gain'.

[he_come_to_town]

It doesn't even make sense. I can imagine someone sick enough to pull something like this for money or obedience or something, but why people's limbs?

[an_zero]

Amusement.

[bogusmagicker]

The militia has been disorganized for some time now. Focus and power have shifted accordingly.

[an_zero]

Sigh. Great, just what I love to hear.

[bogusmagicker]

. . . Why?

[an_zero]

I'm being sarcastic. This is frustrating and disappointing.
