[Okay, Cody likes avoiding school as much as any kid his age, but even he thinks that missing it altogether is a very bad thing. What if he returns and is behind everyone else? Or maybe that's not how it works, what does he know. In any case, he realizes that something has to be done here.]

So it feels really weird to ask this sort of thing, but does anyone have a little time for tutoring? I've been out of school for a while now, and I'd hate to fall behind. I'm not asking for much, just Math and English. I heard there was supposed to be a school being arranged here, is that still happening?

[Now there's just one more thing...]

I have one more question before I go:

What do you think of surveillance cameras?

[There's a reason he's asking.]

[brattery]

Cameras? They ain't so bad if you know how to take 'em out.

[zer0thassassin]

Immobile targets.

Easy.

[brattery]

I know, right? An' if they're on the same circuit you can short 'em out all at once!

[audio]

[zer0thassassin]

Archaic. That's sad.

[audio]

[brattery]

I know, right? You get all kinds of crap like that back on Earth. They're way lame.

[toguidethem]

...Okay?

Why would you want to take them out?

[brattery]

So you don't get caught doing whatever it is you're trying to do. Duh.

[toguidethem]

...

[So he's one of those types. Cody's seen his dad deal with them before.]

Taking out security devices here is very dangerous, especially with people like Tarn running around.

[brattery]

Who's Tarn?

[toguidethem]

He's the guy who publicly murdered at least one person, and is suspected to be involved in three others. He was also part of the law committee.

[Dude how can you miss him, like seriously.]

[brattery]

Huh, someone joining the law and going on to push people around. Can't say I'm surprised.

[toguidethem]

Actually, as a committee member he didn't do too badly.

...Until he started killing people. I don't think he cares enough about us organics to want to kill us, but you should be careful anyway.

[brattery]

Right. I got some friends 'round here I can go to if he's got his eye on me. And I can handle myself pretty good in a fight, anyway.

[Short pause, and then:]

What about you?
