I've been doing some asking around, Fuze has been doing... Fuze things, I think.
No word from him yet, don't why you all started calling him that, but whatever, not like it matters. I did hear something interesting though, word 'round Alcatraz is that Ash' just let you go, maybe even cut some deal.
Now, for the life of me, I can't understand why she would do such a thing if she was planning a hostile takeover if Hemlocke returned, it just doesn't make sense, or match what I know of Ash, except in one scenario, but if that scenario is what's happening, then me and you have got some seriously opposed interests here.
So, am I misunderstanding the situation here, or are we at odds?
I'm trying to figure out if Ash is testing the waters, to see who's a collaborator of him or not.
In short, I did "make a deal" with Ash - but I made no guarantees to her. It was that or die. Ash wanted me to convince Hemlocke to leave, or else she would use me as bait to make a trap to kill him.
And I do not intend to kil my own friends. Hemlocke is well and alive, I know where he is, but I can't say where he is. I don't think he would be happy if I told others. However, I did tell him that he should contact his Rogue friends... guess he needs time to think.
Can't quite say I am too impressed with this scenario, what with the Xenos trying to grow rapidly under the guide of the Order.

Don't know, don't care, my rep' for normally staying out of these things should have my ass covered for the meantime, but the feelings mutual, ain't sh*t, there ain't nothing impressive about being stuck on the outside here while Ash makes her moves.
Look, f*ck it, I'll spare you the threats about not trying to hold up your end of Ash's deal, 'cause if there is actual consideration for him to walk away, then it was never gonna' work, but if that ain't the case, I need to be kept in the damn loop here.
Just remember I gotta' deal with Fuze and you've seen how well he's been holding up with all this, add that to his skill with explosives? Yeah, might end up being kinda' problem for me, so it'd be nice to hear something back from him sooner rather than later.
A fair warning, De Marco's goons came on station AND were waiting outside the station while I was trying to rest in the Coronet, so they're probably going to ask around. Meant to depart earlier, but the mindstorms I'm getting are becoming far far worse.
If you're going to get tested by De Marco, I can arrange a scenary of you gunning me down with them witnessing it, if you need it. I suppose I can handle a few more burns.
No, my ship suffered a malfunction, as did my brain, had to settle back on Buffalo to cool both of them off. Jumping would have been risky. Though, that drink was really... really strong. I'm still quite moderately hung over.

Right...
Well, I'm not exactly planning on jumping if De Marco says so, so do me a favour and slip out to somewhere quiet so neither of us have to bother with the act.
You able to manage that or is your brain too scrambled?
