I can bandage up cuts and the like, but I'm no apothecary. [opens up profiles again] Good news, Eunhyuk and Rosamund also have medical knowledge or wound treatment in their skillset, so you won't be alone.
[Luke nods, because he definitely read and memorized the profiles, unlike me who didn't check.]
Hmm... well, it's not quite as good as having a doctor around [that isn't Senior Crew, he doesn't say] but as long as people aren't too reckless, we should be okay.
[He says that but the vibes are... (unsure).......]
Well, I can't fault them for that or promise I would never participate in one, but I'm kind of seeing why mid-conversation Callisto suddenly warned me not to think about making an enemy out of the company...
We were talking about the scouting ships that Eudora has, and then they suddenly told me not to hijack one and try to escape the contract that way or else it'd provoke the company. I didn't even bring up the idea!
Maybe. They made it sound like our... particular circumstances are unusual, but it wouldn't be surprising for any large group to have had defectors before.
Right. ...I don't like that warning, though. It's obvious this company is powerful, but it contradicts the "great place to work" they've been trying to promote.
Well, I think most groups aren't a fan of betrayal or theft, though it's true that the lack of leniency doesn't bode well. A good organization should know when to be merciful.
Mm. ... I'm looking forward to arriving at our destination—well, maybe "looking forward" isn't the right way to put it, but I feel like seeing the job firsthand will be the first step into getting a better idea of all this.
Right. [SUSPICIOUS. He sighs.] If it's truly anything bad or dangerous... I don't want anyone forced into things they don't want to do.
[It's bad enough already if all of this truly is some kind of bizarre, genuine mixup--but if it's not, then he refuses to let people be forced into doing awful things.]
Well, I work as a private investigator, so it's usually individuals coming into the agency. People who've been scammed, missing persons, things like that. I've done large-scale work before too, though.

Oh--well, I can try. It's mostly just experience I picked up on the front lines, but it'll do in a pinch.
