[There’s silence at first, a long stretching beat of nothing as if the woman is waiting for something. Not that anyone would be able to tell if she was expectant, not with the mask covering her face and hiding any expression she might make

Jill. I'm pleased to see you've arrived.

So you are here. [And damn it, just when she was hoping this would prove to be a chance to escape.] Do you have orders?

[Please say no.]

I have been here for quite some time now, Jill.

Make your way to the La Vista hotel in the Rich District. Tell no one where you are going. Look for the key card in the third stall in the public restroom in the lobby. I'll be in the room that it opens.

...Understood. [And damn that order not to tell anyone. As always he's cornered her with now way out.]

And if I locate our target? [Give her an excuse to find Chris, she'll take that option in a heartbeat.]

[OH SNAP HE KNOWS THAT MASK AND THAT NAME, cue freaking out.]

Jill? Jill, you - you made it here - and... [And then words fail him because he knows that she's in trouble and she's only just got here.]

[Chris. But God, you know her...how are you able to recognize her beneath the mask? Ah the glory of alternate timelines.]

...

Target located. [Now if only she knew where you were...and if only she would be given the opportunity to follow an order to find you. At least then she'd have a chance--or die taking it.]

[roidfield]

[WELP. THAT'S NOT GOOD.]

Jill, don't you dare start this again, we've done this once already. Listen to me, I don't know why you're still... this way, but no matter what, I'm going to fix it.

[God how she wants to listen. More than anything. But she knows she should end communication here. If she didn't now, it would likely be commanded of her soon.

Still she hesitates. You always were one that could get through to her Chris, even now. And she's able to give a strangled plea for your forgiveness with a single--] I'm sorry...

[Before she loses that small amount of control and cuts the feed with a resound click.]

You're in Icarus, dear.

[And now to address that absolutely bizarre costume.]

And where did you get that outfit? I wasn't aware the plague doctor look was in this season.

Icarus...

[She has never heard of such a place.]

It was given to me.

[diamondsare]

Oh, so it was a gift?

And yes, Icarus. I don't suppose you've heard of it?

[She hasn't met a single new person who has.]

You could call it that.

...And no, I haven't.

[She scoffs as she picks up her comm device, seemingly amused by something.]

Wesker is quite the popular man, it seems.

[Oh hello Boss, glad to see you're so amused.]

...Is he? [She never would have guessed. The guy doesn't exactly give off the personality for popularity.]

[cigarboss]

[Everything here is just so awfully amusing.]

You're not the first person I've seen who knows him. It's interesting, to say the least.

[click_reload]

[Glad to provide some of that amusement. If anything, events were only going to be more interesting from this point on.]

...Who else have you spoken to that knows him...and did they say anything about him?

[suuscurator]

I... Don't know who that is--think I should though, it sounds familiar...

Has anyone told you anything?
