Eighth Theory [Voice]

Filtered to Molly and Raine Sage || Extremely Unhackable

Molly, Miss Sage - I've redrawn the blueprints.

The major change is that I gave up on the missiles, the generator, and the defensive capacities of the fort. Even with electricity, I wouldn't have been able to make them work. But, I found someone who can cast a magical barrier around the playground. He just needs everyone who should be allowed in to write down their own name. Miss Sage, if you could work on that list... ? There's no hurry, since we need to actually build the playground first, but it will take some time and we should get started.

Ah... I also put in floodlights; it seemed like a good idea...

What do you think, Molly? Does this design meet primary objectives?

[ffff, it had missiles? She won't comment on that, and instead...]

Whoooa, it's big!

[Anxiously.] Is it big enough? I was told a lot of kids would be using it.

Yeah, it looks really big enough! Kids are so gonna be all over that!

Oh, good! I want it to be useful!

Is that what the lookout tower and floodlights are gonna be for?

Well, for safety. I want the kids to have fun, but I don't want anyone to get hurt...

[She thinks that that's a little much for a playground - after all, back in school, they'd just have a teacher watching over the kids outside. But with villains here... Maybe that kind of thing is needed after all.]

And we can supply the tower with a first-aid kit and other things, right? Just in case.

Sure! There will always be an adult there, to help the kids. [Ahaha, what does he know about "grown-ups you can trust".]

[Her voice has a tired sound to it when she responds.]

Oh, that seems much better. Although... I do question the large fort, still, as that seems like it may take a lot of work.

As for the names, I'll look into it for you. But did he say that it could be updated and maintained as necessary? [There's also the question of what happens if he vanishes, but it can't really hurt for now.]

Don't worry; it's a straightforward construction job. I could do it from my head... but I'm drawing diagrams so other people can help. It sounds like we have plenty of volunteers.

Yes, he can do that. It sounds like a very strong line of defense. It's only weak point is him. If he gets hurt, or disappears... It's very important that no one knows who controls the barrier.

I'll put you in touch with him, though. Since it seems like you know more about magic than I do - [In truth, it would be difficult for her to know less.] - and you'll know what questions to ask.

While it may work for some period of time, it would be best not to get too reliant on it, due to the nature of this world. But I would feel more comfortable knowing his identity, at the very least.

Of course. Security is always an ongoing project.

... His name is Helios.

((You can find him at

fides_est_vita.))

Good. [Because Raine really is wary about this idea. But that's just her nature.]

Helios... hm. [She pauses, yes, it's a familiar name. It just takes her a moment to place due to how tired she is.] We've spoken a few times, granted not about something of this nature.

Ah, you've met him. What do you think? Is he trustworthy?

... Are you all right, Miss Sage? You sound very tired.

I believe he may mean well. But it still seems like quite a risk.

Hm? Yes, I'm fine. [A pause. She honestly didn't realize it was that noticeable.] Something had come up that I wasn't expecting, but it happens.

Well, we could always go back to the missiles... Household chemicals can be surprisingly potent. [Read: Please, Miss Sage, may I have the missiles? ^_^]

A bad thing? Or just an unexpected thing?

[Suddenly there's a voice RIGHT BEHIND HIM.

Raph's peering over Don's shoulder with a smirk on his face. Yeah, he completely intended to startle you.]

No more missiles, huh?

[You completely succeeded.]

[He slams the journal closed. A weakness in his filters that he'll have to be more mindful of.]

For purely pragmatic reasons.

[He thumps Don in the shoulder for flinching. But wow, he closed that journal pretty quick. How suspicious.]

What, are you talkin' to your girlfriend or something?

I'm working.

[He lowers his voice.] Look, the plans for this playground... there's something about them that needs to stay very secret. Could you try to be a little ninja about it?

Ninja enough to make you jump outta your shell.

Clearly.

[Now he doesn't feel like sharing.]

Aw, c'mon Donnie-boy. [This time he smacks him on the shell.] I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
