"Intelligence"

Mr. Abrams,

It is a welcome change to see you acting rationally for a change.

Any mobile scanning equipment we have on hand is required for our own operations. You will have to come to us for the procedure, preferably weekly. I want to clarify that, should you indeed be found to be infected, you will be terminated on the spot. We will have no other option.

You understand that Overwatch is already highly suspicious of you, correct? In no small part due to the adapted technology you are already employing. Increasing your pool of alien equipment will only draw further ire. Additionally, should Overwatch learn that Section 8 itself supplied you with such technology, we, too, may receive unwanted attention. That being said, I believe we can provide the weapons you apparently need. However, the information you provide in return had better be of considerable value to us.

As for our rapport with the Auxesians; there is no 'getting along' with traitors to humanity who work with the Nomads. Section 8 has, however, considered improving relations with the Technocrats - and their 'Revenant' in particular -, at least in regards to this particular situation. But, as I am sure you will agree, our encounters so far prove that our advances will likely be rebuffed with the usual juvenile vitriol.

Let me know when you are ready for your first checkup and I will inform you of when and where to pick up your supplies.

Hawkins, out.
