Confrontation at Administrator Nirai Paerani Shan's Office
Sulen and Virmad are facing off against Administrator Shan, having dumped a (friendly!) baby mothling (Crowned-With-Eyes) and faked evidence of Remi's "heresy" onto her desk, as per this thread from Move 19.
Shan makes a brief show of checking the faked datacube for the evidence, but she's clearly feeling pressured with two Rahal standing right there and it doesn't appear she finds anything out of order in the "evidence." "All right," Shan says. She pulls up an appropriate form on one of her data slates and signs over Remi and the mothlings to Sulen and Virmad's custody, then outputs it to a data cube and hands it to them. "Do you require assistance locating Nirai Remi? Or would you prefer to handle that yourselves?" Her expression is resigned.
On the "Bumblebee"
- Mikodez is in Sasha's bedroom, following this thread from Move 19. He is currently alone, trapped, and recuperating, apparently having dozed off.
- Sasha and Iawa have made preparations to talk to Mikodez (see above) as per this thread from Move 19. They have agreed to meet outside Sasha's bedroom and confront Mikodez together.
- Alaric is still currently closeted with Gerae (and Fluffy), continuing this thread from Move 19. Gerae looks abashed at Alaric's critique of heptarchate social control methods and says, "You're obviously very knowledgeable about us and our methods. Are you a scholar? I hadn't realized your team did research." (He's clearly fishing for more information about the Merry Crew he has fallen in with.) Meanwhile, Fluffy curls up on his forearm and appears to doze.
NPCs:
- Ashari is in their office.
- Kaliyan is still manning the cockpit in preparation for escape.
- Yehan graciously thanks Sasha for the box of Remy's journals and begins scanning them into the grid for further analysis; this is a process that can largely be automated so she has set the grid up to alert her if anything looks like it requires her immediate attention, and goes to get some more tea.
- Ankat is keeping an eye on Istradez, who is still woozy and concussed, as per this thread from Move 19. He is available if anyone needs an extra pair of hands.

Iawa only makes eye contact when she shouldn't
Date: 2018-06-15 09:51 am (UTC)"Thank you for coming so quickly," she says, meeting Ashari's gaze unflinchingly.
[Ashari doesn't have to enthrall Iawa -- Sasha or Mikodez would probably be both more plot-appropriate and funnier. But they can if they feel like it (thus generously offering Sasha and Mikodez an attack of opportunity?) and making ill-considered stands for poorly thought through reasons is kind of Iawa's thing.]
Sasha needs to stop having these conversations on the ground
Date: 2018-06-15 11:21 am (UTC)"I regret my failure and will pay what penalty you require of me," she tells Ashari, seriously. "About the foxling. Two things. First, I have control of his augment and am copying the data. The bulk of the storage is used by Shuos files. They're all encrypted, all the same size. Not the sort of thing Academy dropouts keep. My guess is they're recordings. So that's at least two spies, the kid and whoever prevented our side from checking his augment."
On the bright side, now that she's explained she read the augment data, she doesn't have to pretend she doesn't know Mishka's name. "Second thing. I'm sure you know Mikodez and his 'cousin' are brothers. But I don't think Mishka knew, until tonight. One of the things he did, when he was wandering the station on his own, is find a gene scanner and run some tests."

Date: 2018-06-17 09:37 pm (UTC)"And...?" He draws out the word. "Keep going. I don't know everything on my augment either."
