- [19:35] * deadboltedRacketeer [DR] began pestering endamseledProtagonist [EP]
- [19:35] <deadboltedRacketeer> DR: Afternoon.
- [19:36] <endamseledProtagonist> Oh! Hey, Peter!
- [19:36] <endamseledProtagonist> I knew I gave you my pesterhandle for something! What's up??
- [19:36] <deadboltedRacketeer> DR: I was wondering if you recognized the name 'Skaianet.'
- [19:37] <endamseledProtagonist> No...?
- [19:37] <endamseledProtagonist> That sounds a lot like the company from some movie, though.
- [19:37] <endamseledProtagonist> What brings it up?
- [19:38] <deadboltedRacketeer> DR: Strange. I looked it up but couldn't find anything either.
- [19:38] <deadboltedRacketeer> Several people saying they were from that company were at the office earlier today.
- [19:39] <endamseledProtagonist> Ooh, maybe my Daddy was working on some kind of big secret deal with someone too secret to use their real name!!
- [19:39] <endamseledProtagonist> Maybe he's selling real estate to the CIA or something.
- [19:39] <endamseledProtagonist> Who knows?
- [19:39] <endamseledProtagonist> Like I told you last time, I don't really pay attention to his business stuff. Just not really my thing!
- [19:42] <deadboltedRacketeer> DR: Does the Wesley Organization cater to secret government units often?
- [19:43] <endamseledProtagonist> I have no idea!
- [19:44] <endamseledProtagonist> And if he did, Daddy's probably contractually obligated not to tell me.
- [19:44] <endamseledProtagonist> It's probably just some codename the nerds on their team came up with!
- [19:45] <deadboltedRacketeer> Hah. I suppose that makes a degree of sense.
- [19:45] <deadboltedRacketeer> You would expect a real secret agency to have a cover that isn't broken by a cursory Google search.
- [19:46] <endamseledProtagonist> Well, it wouldn't be a secret agency if you could find it on Google!
- [19:46] <deadboltedRacketeer> I said cover. If Skaianet is a facade, it would appear online.
- [19:48] <endamseledProtagonist> Well, it's a cover for a cover! Or something.
- [19:49] <deadboltedRacketeer> That would be a terrible cover. A good cover would be something unimpressive and uninteresting, like a website for a laundromat.
- [19:50] <endamseledProtagonist> But that's the kind of thing you would think is a cover!
- [19:50] <endamseledProtagonist> They might be hiding in plain in-your-face!!
- [19:51] <endamseledProtagonist> Nobody would suspect that a guy named B. Atmann is Batman, because Batman wouldn't be stupid enough to use that as his secret identity.
- [19:51] <deadboltedRacketeer> I disagree. If I found a group of guests claiming that they were from a laundromat, or an office supply producer, I would pay them little heed.
- [19:51] <deadboltedRacketeer> But the fact that we are discussing it even now proves that a company having no online presence at all is worthy of suspicion.
- [19:52] <endamseledProtagonist> Well...
- [19:52] <endamseledProtagonist> Maybe you're right!
- [19:52] <endamseledProtagonist> But you know what... I don't really care too much!!
- [19:53] <endamseledProtagonist> So, good luck on figuring out whatever Skaianet is! Or not!
- [19:53] <deadboltedRacketeer> Understandable. Thank you for your help.
- [19:53] <deadboltedRacketeer> Have a nice day.
- [19:53] * deadboltedRacketeer [DR] ceased pestering endamseledProtagonist [EP]
