[Jo is seated in a chair, somewhere in Adstringendum, twirling her knife between her fingers without a care in the world. She looks distinctly amused, as she glances up towards the wall. There is a dartboard on the wall, with four darts in it -- each pinned for a direct bullseye.]How long's it gonna take for you guys to realize the filters are down

Okay, filters? Nobody said anything about filters. [ This is a placeholder as I teetertotter into sleepytown k? K. ]

[knifetotheface]

... who in the hell gave you the welcome speech?

You can filter things away from other people with some hacking or something -- like putting a lock on it.

[She is not Ash, she cannot brain these things. 8(]

But they're not working, which means all the things people are trying to hide from each other are coming out in the open. And no one's bothered to stop using them yet.

Mixture of a bunch of different people? And zero filter-mentioning.

[ ... Blink. ] Like a normal one-on-one call only with a video instead of just talking?

[ Well that's inconvenient. ] Oh. Huh. Anybody know why? Or how the de-filtering is happening?

Some job they're doing -- and yeah, just like that. Pretty sure it's the Animus screwing with the network -- that this is one of those weird events people talk about.

I haven't been around for one yet, so I don't really know for sure.

Well, I might have said it nicer. [He looks amused, though. And he's impressed by the knife throw -- He loves dangerous girls.] Nice throw.

I think there's a bar over at [x,y]. No promises on quality or supply, though.

Hey, I'm not gonna keep watching people make fools of themselves. I'm just being a good Samaritan.

[But she grins at the coordinates -- and, of course, the compliment, but she doesn't comment on the compliment. It's pretty obvious she got it, though. Most men find her talent weird, okay. 8|]

Thanks! I'll check it out.

[headthataway]

[He chuckles. She's got a good sense of humor, and he likes it.]

Well, I'm glad to be of help. Guess we can just be good Samaritans together, can't we?

[bunny_flower]

We actually have a bar that does not require fixing up, it should be fully functional.

[knifetotheface]

Is that right?

[bunny_flower]

It shoud be here. It is called Ginia's Bar.

[knifetotheface]

Aaah -- awesome! Thanks!

[genkireaper]

Wow... That's an impressive skill.

[But hey, getting past the stunned look. She's now very curious!]

You were in a bar a lot back home?

[knifetotheface]

Thanks. I've got a lot of spare time.

[Not really -- or at least, she didn't back home. But the real story behind Jo's skills is a long one, so instead, she tilts back in her chair, letting her eyes rest on the ceiling.]

Practically grew up in one. It burnt down a year or two ago, though.

[genkireaper]

Oh dear... I'm so sorry to hear that. I can see why you'd want to recreate that.

[knifetotheface]

Worse has happened.

[It's who she lost in the fire that really stings.]

[feel_nevermore]

[Raven smirks at that. She kinda likes you already, Jo, really.] Well you know what the definition of madness is, right?

As for the bar... I take it you haven't met Horst, right?

[Video]

[knifetotheface]

[Well, she likes you too, so that's about even for her.]

Yeah, yeah. Doing the same thing over and over even though you get the same result. I just have high hopes for humanity.

[And Jo tosses the PCD a grin.]

And no, I haven't.

[feel_nevermore]

[She shrugs.] A girl can only pray so hard.

Then I should definitely introduce him to you. He runs the Seventh Heaven.

[knifetotheface]

Seventh Heaven?
