[Call/message filtered from Margot (Crowe feels she's upset enough already) to all non-drones. No one Crowe knows had been droned until now and he's having a hard time dealing with it.]


Does... does the town often drone people for no reason? This is... this is... I don't even know. How can this happen? Nadia was one of the nicest people in town, she... she never bothered anyone, never hurt anyone..._{it's not fair... what if she doesn't...}

I-I mean is that it then? Even if we DO get along with this town and its rules, we might just droned anyway?! For no reason whatsoever? Am I just supposed to sit around and wait for them to brainwash the rest of us permanently too? I don't get it! What do they want from us?! What are we supposed to do?


[There's a pause as he sighs and rubs his forehead.]


...I-I'm sorry it's just... _{why couldn't they have done it to someone else...}

We need to start acting on the plans we made before. A week or two ago, I would have told you this place wasn't so bad, but now I hate it. To think that someone you care about can just be ripped out from under you like that, and for no reason... this town is a terrible place.

I agree. There's no time to waste now. When do you want to meet up?

Well, I couldn't get a hold of Erika, so I guess anytime is fine. We'll just go over what we have so far.

Alright. I'll... let you know. I'll give you a call.
