Please humour me the fact I've no desire to go down there and find out for myself: was all the tech from the genetics labs destroyed? The computers are what I'm wondering about, specifically.

I believe some were retrieved shortly after the place was discovered, as well, but I admit I have no idea who they ended up with. Word on either would be appreciated. I have a personal investment, as much as I'm loathe to associate myself so directly with the place.

Thank you.

It was really bad in there, when I was putting the fire out.

I really don't know if anything could work after that.

[stimulations]

You have? Would you mind telling me what, exactly?

[rixatus]

it's all gone. :)

I don't need it to work. You'd be surprised how much data can survive a fire.

[But he's aware it's probably wishful thinking.]

[deprecate]

Couple of stacks, drives. Bits and pieces. been fucking around cabling it together, but Im better with hardware

Even if they are charred?

Dude I just don't get computers.

[But really, at least he has a bit of a break. He is from the 60s.]

[jilt]

Keeping busy?

[Welp, this is probably bad news, but Josias has always been too curious for his own good.]

I didn't think you'd be pleased about something like that.

[rixatus]

does it hurt?

[stimulations]

Not anymore, no.

[stimulations]

Not exactly my intention. I've better things for that.

[stimulations]

Were you using them for a particular project?

[He's wondering exactly how much persuasion it might take to get them off him.]

Charring isn't the problem so much as melting. Even then, it's possible to patch repairs on intact pieces in order to access anything remaining. It may not be a total recovery, but it can often yield something.

[He doesn't actually want a lesson on computers, Josie.]

What is this investment?

[stimulations]

I don't think the details are particularly necessary at this point.

[majestyofthethrone]

Do we know what happened for sure down there?

[rixatus]

you're almost ready.

[deprecate]

Dunno if you know Cambridge, but he had me sorting them out for him before he left.

[jurisimpudent]

[A slight pause.]

As you say.

Huh. [Hank would have been totally into that stuff. Alex just feels like an idiot.]

Well if that's the case, I'll go down there right now and drag a few over to you.

[jilt]

I'd hope so.

Are you having any luck with your request?

[stimulations]

What caused the destruction, or what it was being used for back whenever? Because I personally feel the latter cancels out my concern at the former, as inconvenient as it might have ended up being for me.

[stimulations]

I knew him. Did he tell you why?

[stimulations]

I didn't really mean it as a suggestion, Alex. It would be better if you stayed away from there.
