TM #282 - Cremation or burial? Talk about funeral arrangements.

[nerdherdchuck]

What a depressing idea for a topic. But I guess I'd be buried and have a wake and stuff.

Okay, I'm done talking about this.

[Locked to those who know about his secret life]

I wonder what would happen if I really had to fake my death. It almost happened a couple of times with me nearly being locked in some underground bunker. Obviously, very few people could know what really happened to me. Everyone else would probably be told that I died.

So there would be a fake funeral, I guess. I guess they'd either make up a dummy for my body. Or maybe my death cover story...I dunno what else to call it...would make me die in some sort of explosion so there wouldn't really be a body exactly. Then, well, maybe it would be like a cremation since...well my body kinda would have been burned up.

...

This is getting very morbid and I'm done talking about this scenario too. [/unlocked]

It is most likely because you are not a soldier or an agent. Most military people do not have a use for civilians.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

That could be it. But the odd thing is...she never wanted me to have the Intersect removed either. I kinda thought that was strange...

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Possibly it was convenient for her. You were more controllable then. She probably thought you would never do anything other than what you were told. She must have been very surprised when she found out you were not a meek little robot.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

*nods* Maybe that was it. I guess we'll just have to see what happens once we tell her about my new abilities...

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

You should speak to Sarah before you do that. She may advise against you telling the General.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

I'll talk to Sarah and Casey first, but I think at some point, we'll have to tell the General the truth.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

That is quite true. However, they may council you to wait. Although I suspect that Casey will not.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Probably not, no...

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

He works directly for the General, does he not? It is Sarah who works for a different agency, yes?

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Casey does, yes. Sarah works for the CIA so she's working for another agency. But ever since Director Graham died, Sarah's been answering to the General too. I dunno why the CIA hasn't appointed someone to take Graham's place yet.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

This is government, yes? Nothing moves quickly.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Maybe that's...part of it. I dunno.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Perhaps they are attempting to see what Casey's agency will do before they bring someone in.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Or maybe now the NSA owns this project or something.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

That would make sense. But why delay having a contact in her office? Do their agencies not do different things?

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Their agencies are different, yes. *shrugs* Maybe it's all been taken care of behind the scenes or something. I really don't know.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

They would not be likely to tell you. I know part of it is that they feel they have to protect you, but it is also the fact they feel you do not have any reason to know.

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't doubt that in the slightest.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Your new Yoda may change that.

OOC: Can you AIM?

[nerdherdchuck.livejournal.com]

Changing things, he might.

[powered-otaku.livejournal.com]

Take over he will.
