all i see is a fake revolution [open]

Who: Murderbot and possibly YOU!
Where: Various places along the train; Quiet Carriage, as a starter!
When: Nebula 25-on.
What: Unhappy with the events on the station, Murderbot attempts to debrief those involved and gather a bit more information while also trying to figure out a plan moving forwards to Deal with the Void Ministry.
Warnings: kanye shrug




They'd been tricked.

It wasn't the fact that it happened so much as they'd fallen for such. It had fallen for such. Murderbot - Rin - really, really hated the feeling of being tricked in such a way, and the fact that everyone was all right meant nothing. It almost felt angrier for such; all this worry, all this shit, and for what?

So a bunch of assholes could interrogate them and toss them back out when they were done.

To keep itself from getting too frustrated, Murderbot doesn't bother with the comms. Considering it's about to do what it hates most - initiate social activity (though 'social' is used loosely), a couple signs will do-

DEBRIEFING SIGNUP


-with a location being one of the quiet cars, and timeslots available for anyone who bothers doing so. Murderbot will be in one of the quiet coaches to 'conduct' these, which really boils down to it staring grumpily at whomever's across from it for a few moments before beginning, voice as flat as a board;

"What happened."

Between its own 'interviews', it remains in the quiet car just...staring at the wall. Outwardly, at least. Inwardly it's trying to piece together the fragments of knowledge, and occasionally it can even be found in the library car, searching for anything related to the Void Ministry. Because, quite frankly...

It can't not consider them a security threat.

"I mean, it did, but..."

He folds his arms. "I thought...they've pursued us so aggressively because they don't get us and we've been evading questioning, right? Nothing looks more suspicious to a cop. I thought I'd try to level with them."

"...no, but think about it from their perspective. A rogue train's speeding around kidnapping people, it runs whenever they approach, and they need to check that we're alive and not brainwashed into some weird cult. Right?"

Jake's not totally sure he's right. But moving on:

"I hope that's all it is."
