Where Zevran plays with filters for the first time!

[rogue_crow]

[It's been a week or two, and Zevran has been learning quite a bit about Mayfield and its technology. For one thing, he's become much more adept at using a phone. And a rifle; other residents of Nelson Street may have found their fences, birdhouses, mailboxes, etcetera splintered, broken, or with bullet holes in them - until the town repairs them

Glad to hear you're still eager. Things have been moving slower than I expected. The rest haven't made their move yet, I plan to speak with some of them soon.

A good battle would do my nerves wonders. I'll remember to keep you in mind in case anything comes up in between.

Good to hear things are, at least, moving. I suppose I should be in less of a rush to most likely die horribly, but at least I would feel as though I were getting a feel for the opposition, and making an effort. And, of course, I would get to test the skills you have given me under combat circumstances.

Please do so. I would hate for my talents to go wasted.

In my line of work you get used to waiting a long time for the perfect chance. Though even I think it's been long enough. I can't wait to see what you can do.

I'd hate for that too. It's rare I find someone that even I am not entirely sure I can beat. If that changed I'd be highly disappointed.

[laughs] That sounds like sheer flattery. I may have a sharp eye from, shall we say, similar pursuits, but I'm certain I cannot match your expertise with a weapon I have only just recently been introduced to.

Not that I mind a bit of shameless flattery, of course.

I've been busy. I had a few personal matters to attend to, and I needed that rest everyone was insisting I take.

As for your poisons, I'm uncertain. Stockpile them and hide them, if you can make them. I'm hesitant to do anything overt right now.

Ah, and I trust you are better for it? You certainly looked as though you were stretched rather thin the last time I saw you...

I can indeed make them. If you find someone who can make medicines or antidotes and the like, I can provide them with raw materials, as well; I can make a few passable antidotes to some of my poisons, naturally, but beyond that I have very little skill in the way of beneficial chemistry. [a pause as this registers, then in a slightly wicked tone] Except in the bedroom.

[Back to businesslike!] Though, as far as overt goes...will Sniper and I not be trying to shoot at least a few of these people? Even if the plan is not yours, it may be that such an open move against them will make hiding our intentions immaterial.

I'm feeling better.

...I'm attempting to get everything aligned right now. There are too many factions, too many ideas. We need a cohesive opinion and a single point from which to base our plans and, subsequently, attack.

--Cut out the chemistry remarks.

Good to hear.

Groups and ideas can be good in proliferation, but only when properly coordinated. Perhaps you can organize them into cells, as my order did? So long as there is communication between them and someone to report to, it could work. A single group would be simplest, of course, but after reaching a certain size it would simply be too large to be monitored as a whole by any one person. Am I wrong in thinking we have already passed that point?

Ah, well, if you insist. It was simply too good of an opportunity to waste!
