[A quiet snort. What is she supposed to say? She wanted Lupin to rescue her. He always did, no matter what crazy ass end of the world scheme was going on. She wasn't about to admit they could be out of their league here.]
Some of the people really are basically gods in their own worlds. And they're still trapped like the rest of us. People try to get out all the time, but the barrier is impossible to bypass. Michelangelo and I stalked some of their robot kidnappers when they took Raphael, but they disappear into nowhere. No smoke bomb, no anything. There was this thing recently where someone got one of their bots to cut open and so they were trying to scavenge the technology from it, but swarms of the buggers came to get it back. People only get sent out when the Malnosso feel like it.
[Bites her bottom lip in thought. It's trembling a little. She's genuinely scared, and for all her tough act, it's still leaking through here and there.] I'm going to go on some of their missions. Not really compliance, but they're not always terrible. Some of it seems like they just have a twisted idea of humor. And they reward decently. [Casts eyes downward. She doesn't want to hear him yell at her for giving up. She hasn't, but what's the point of shooting the walls continuously?] Sometimes it's better to make the most of it, right?
There's a few factions here. People who want to disrupt their experiments, but that's basically impossible. Besides, if the experiment isn't concluded successfully, they'd just repeat it and that's even more annoying. Most people are focused more on how to deal with the drafts. Everyone's got some idea or another, each more ridiculous than the last. Like signing a petition asking the Malnosso to only take volunteers. Or just laying down to die. [Shrug.] Actually, who knows. Maybe the petition did work after all. They have those missions now and stuff. And the Shifts... most of them are kind of funny afterwards. Most of them.
You can talk that weird Malnosso named Charlotte. Whenever he decides to show his face that is.
