Memo 001: Meet the Assistant.

[prpl_assistant]

A. Action for 1337 Benny Road.

[The first thing Miss Pauling notes when she opens her eyes is how bright the bedroom is. She shuts her eyes tightly, having not yet readjusted to the light. However, when she opens them up again, she immediately notes something else.

The walls around her weren't coloured purple.

Confused, she reaches for her glasses at the bedside table, only to note that they weren't her usual optic wear either. They were just the wrong shape.]

That's strange, where are my glasses...?

[Her hands fumbled around for her familiar pair of spectacles, until she accidentally knocked over the lamp with a resounding smash.]

Ooops.

B. Phone

Hello? Is there anyone there? I...I think I've been kidnapped!

[prpl_assistant]

I...I suppose...

It's a good thing that I'm having this conversation with you here then...

I need you to find out more about the other civilians in this town. Who's a danger to us, who's a potential ally, whether there are any resistances, whether there are any who are actually working with the forces that are keeping us here. I'd rather not get any of us involved with any of these factions until we know who we might be going up against, and who could potentially be on our side when we do this. Get to know anyone who stands out in this town. We have to pick our fights carefully here.


(Her voice turns on a pleading tone.)

I...I know it's a lot to ask for, and you're no longer obligated to listen to me. But I think it'd be the best choice of action, if we are to get back home in one piece. As your second-in-command back home, I just want to see all of you safe.

[He's silent as he reaches into his jacket for his cigarette case. He takes his time lighting up and speaks once he releases a puff of smoke.]

I can do zhis for you. I never really found zhe point of trying to find a sort of resistance, as I doubt zhat we could ever escape zhis place, but I could never refuse a request from such a beautiful woman.

[He smiles at her.] I 'ave been razzer bored lately, after all. It is zhe least I can do for you, mademoiselle.

Oh Spy, y u so nice?

[prpl_assistant]

(She blushes. Both the Spies always have this effect on her.)

Listen Mr Spy, the thing is...I'd like for all of us to stay out of any of this resistance or alliance business. As far as I've heard, the authorities in Mayfield have all the power so far. I'd rather that we all try to stay alive and non-droned. The information would be useful to us because it'll not only keep us alive, but it can be used as bargaining tools, should we ever need to resort to such matters.

Forever a gentleman, hohoho.

[un-beau-coquin.livejournal.com]

Do not worry. I would not be too fond of joining a group who seems intent on leaving when zhere is obviously no ways of escape.

[He takes another drag.] Staying wizh my team, 'owever, is somezhing I can do. I would razzer stick to zhat, at least, zhan join disillusioned fools. I 'ave been 'ere quite a while, mademoiselle. I know 'ow to stay alive.

[He exhales with a wry smile.] For zhe most part, at least.

Shouldn't it be hon hon hon?

[prpl_assistant]

(She's still slightly flustered by the Spy's offhand comment from before, though thankfully the red color on her cheeks is slowly fading away.)

That's...that's good.

Speaking of the team, would you happen to know where everyone is staying at the moment? Just in case we need to group together for any of the dangerous events that Mayfield throws at us.

And umm...could you show me how to filter the calls? I'm not too sure...

Shoosh. /pap

[un-beau-coquin.livejournal.com]

Well, you are staying wizh zhe Sniper, oui? Zhe Pyro is living wizh me.

As for zhe BLUs, I only know of zhe BLU Pyro's whereabouts, as mentioned earlier. I am certain you would 'ave better luck wizh finding zheir locations-- at least, if you were to ask zhem in person. I suppose I 'ave a bit of sneaking around to do, do I not?

[He chuckles around his cigarette.]

Re: Shoosh. /pap

[prpl_assistant]

I'll definitely get down to that.

Well, thanks so much for you time Mr Spy. I really appreciate that you came over here to tell me all of this.

[un-beau-coquin.livejournal.com]

[He stands, adjusting his tie.] It was my pleasure. I am very glad to 'ave been allowed to come over and lay my eyes on your marvelous visage.

[He bows.] Call me if you need me. Oh, and tell Sniper I said "bonjour", if you do not mind? I suppose I will 'ave more zhan one person to visit whenever I drop by 'ere.

Au revoir, mademoiselle. A bientot. [With a smile, he waves and heads for the door.]

[prpl_assistant]

Goodbye Mr Spy. And I'll definitely let him know that you came by today. Feel free to drop by whenever you want.

(She waves him good bye. The RED Spy always knew how to make a lady feel good.)
