I'm well aware that my name isn't one you must be happy seeing among the others, but the only reason I'm approaching you to begin with is Mattias.
When was the last you saw him?
<bracket>
[Finally, unable to stand the thought of the text hanging unanswered in his inbox, he picks up the nerve to go and answer it.]
worried about him, are you?
< Oren >
I didn't contact you to waste time. I'll ask once more before I come to your lab myself. When was the last you saw him?
<bracket>
a while ago. not recently.
i don't know what he's been up to.
< Oren >
I do hope you haven't encouraged him into anything dangerous.
<bracket>
and i should ask the same of you.
< Oren >
I've only been searching for him the entire month. Through those attacks, I'll have you know. Bavan, Vandare, everywhere. Knowing you were so close, your efforts must have been equal, yes? I need to know where he is. If you know and refuse to tell me, I'm afraid I won't be so kind.
<bracket>
i have no clues for you. that's that. it's the truth.
< Oren >
<bracket>
same for you i suppose.
< Oren >
Yes.
You see how I gave you that information without dancing in circles? I wish to find him. If you want the same, you should let me know if you find anything.
<bracket>
need to stab him again for old time's sake?
< Oren >
<bracket>
if he has that was rather an ill thought decision but what do i know
< Oren >
I have my own fair share of opinions on how many ill decisions he's made, but I'm not here listing off your involvement in the majority of them.
<bracket>
if you see him you will send me word of it, and i will do the same for you. let us agree on that at the very least. no hiding things from one another now.
< Oren >
Oh, that's right. I did just say that, didn't I? We're in agreement, then. We'll notify each other if we've any word of him.
<bracket>
and yes. let's.
if you don't tell me and he contacts you, be warned, i wouldn't take it lightly. you have the right to behave the same towards me.
