i wonder what changed the formula

two rifts, absorbing locals, opened and close fast when usually we have hours

[adamho]

That's what I mean. [...] You guys forced open the rift to get the others in. Wouldn't it make sense that something else did the same thing to get them in? And it would explain the difference in behavior. Manufactured rifts instead of natural ones.

[harmreduction]

We better make sure we take out every single one of those Shadows that can talk.

[adamho]

Agreed. But the ringmaster should be our first priority.

[harmreduction]

I'd rather do a clean sweep, but if there's a chance we're only going to have an hour, I agree.

[adamho]

We'll have to see how the next one opens before we know what to expect, I guess.

[harmreduction]

Back to the waiting game.

[adamho]

Yeah. You'd think we'd be used to that by now.

[harmreduction]

Harder to be patient if something is trying to kidnap people.

[highercalling]

Absolutely.

[harmreduction]

At least we took out some of them last time.

[highercalling]

[...] That's true. We've made progress. I [...] just wish I could say that I was successful in that regard. During our last Exploration, I mean.

[dallaslevy]

[...] Lucy made the right call, though. I mean. All things considered.

[highercalling]

You're right, of course. We were outmatched.

It just means we'll have something to focus on next time we go in. All of us, I mean. I'd [...] sleep better if I knew that Shadow weren't out there still.

[dallaslevy]

We You guys might've been okay if it hadn't called for backup. Or whatever it did. But things were definitely headed from bad to worse.

[...]

Yeah. We'll get it next time.

[harmreduction]

Rescuing the civilians was the important part.

[highercalling]

I agree with you.

[harmreduction]

Hopefully that won't be a concern next time.

[pleaseloveme]

i'm not good at this

[adamho]

Of course you are. Why would you think otherwise?

[pleaseloveme]

my squad keeps getting b i don't know, i just need to practice harder

[adamho]

We could all stand to do that. We need to be ready.

[...]

[Eli]

I'll admit I don't fully understand how you guys practice, but if I can help, tell me? We can put in some extra hours.

Adam/Eli

[pleaseloveme]

[...]

i feel like i'm really good in class but then i kind of suck when we're on actual missions

Adam/Eli

[adamho]

We can get in more time in the Velvet Room, then. Irene can arrange something to challenge you. [...] Even if the problem's the pressure of the real thing versus practice, making everything as second nature as possible should ease things when you're in the field.

Adam/Eli

[pleaseloveme]

yeah ok

it can't hurt right? flint and emma are both super excited about getting into fights and i have to be able to keep up with them or things will keep going bad
