[This is a living-room/study of very modernist sensibilities, and the small, younger man in scrubs who is seated in the egg chair with his NV propped up seems a bit- ...there's something off, if you have a fair, close read on body language. There's something slightly strained, or tired, or just resigned.

But Daedalus has contained himself once more

With the diversity of abilities present, would blood donations be wise?

[longaevus]

Precisely.

[gaveherwings]

And what did you do?

[longaevus]

I didn't give in to their will. I kept my work and those associated with it safe and protected. I won't allow anyone to bully me into seeing their way.

[gaveherwings]

All the same, the administration wants to restrict all access to the core, in order to keep the peace between conflicting interests.

[longaevus]

I doubt that that judgement didn't cause its own conflicts.

[gaveherwings]

The best they can hope to do for now is preserve neutrality.

[longaevus]

Even if that means leaving all questions regarding the Core unanswered?

[gaveherwings]

Yes. [a faint sigh, troubled] That's policy, for you.

[longaevus]

I've rarely known a policy to be without change. Perhaps one day there may be alterations.

[gaveherwings]

If they believe that a party of researchers can be trusted to act within the city's best interests. Perhaps.

[longaevus]

Although that would no doubt entail working with them.

[gaveherwings]

We must be prepared and willing to make some compromises. After all, we are not natives to this place.

[longaevus]

It would depend upon their objectives as to what compromises I would find acceptable. [ If they were anything like Adam or the Cabal... she wouldn't go that far ]

[gaveherwings]

Well, the main problem is that the factions here are at an opposition, when it comes to public option about the core.

So to ask the average citizen of Siren's Port, you'll hear one of two things.

Or the third, standing option, which is to wait. The present compromise, which most people can agree upon, for now.
