If you think you’re going to become a danger to others during this upcoming mission, what precautions are you taking?

And for this particular one, something is being purposely opened and then we're supposed to close it, all while being exposed to a substance that can negatively affect this. It sounds more like an experiment.

[reincarnesiac]

Was our exposure not significant enough in San Francisco? Because that's also what it feels like. An experiment with a different twist, 'cause sure, changing a moral compass is one kind of mental manipulation, but so is inducing hallucinations and paranoia outside whatever you usually have going on.

I don't like people being put into danger in a completely preventable way. The guy I talked to was surprised by this whole thing, that we weren't being sent away, that it was happening deliberately. So it kind of is part of the ongoing... social experiment you get on reality television kind of thing.

[godsandbats]

And we're all the lab rats. We have little choice but to take the word of our main sources of information. It's surprising to hear he might not be aligned with Echo.

[reincarnesiac]

I genuinely believe someone he loves is caught up in Echo's experiments. But it also makes me wonder if our being here or going home is more complicated than we know. Or the effects more lingering.

[godsandbats]

There must be more than the official story we've been given. His appearance complicates matters and is generating even more questions. It's surprising Echo hasn't taken action yet.

[reincarnesiac]

Do you think Echo cares more about any one bubble city than the rest?

[godsandbats]

With so little information we have about other cities like Etraya, it's hard to say one way or another. The missions where we were off world were different from Etraya.

[reincarnesiac]

But we have any info at all, right? This planet we're on has more than one bubble city. Why would Solmara or whatever it was have happened if Echo was super invested in the details of any one of them?

[godsandbats]

That's ultimately a question to Echo. We don't know if they're actually trying to help or if this is all just one sadistic game.

[reincarnesiac]

It's a game either way. The intent behind it is what's still unclear on the table. Or. You know what I mean, I think.

[godsandbats]

I do. We knew so little already and Scylla's appearance muddles the waters even more.

[reincarnesiac]

Or less. Precisely because we know so little.
