[She had said that they needed to focus on the mission at hand. Approaching the matter while they were leaving the scene would have been ... tactless, even for her.
[A message pings in Sam's extranet inbox from Floran, Adetkunbo's assistant. It reads:]
Cheers! I told you I wouldn't let Kun forget about his promise. We've organized for you and your friend to have a meeting with Kun and Miss Frey tomorrow afternoon. We'll send a car over to your residence at 1100. Don't eat a big breakfast!
Hugs!, Floran Madish
[As promised, the following day a black car arrives at Bearings. Floran herself is in the backseat, an android behind the wheel.]
[ After using Scrap the night before, Aoba's woken up with a massive headache. He probably should've come to see Sam sooner. When he calls out his reach his clumsy, fumbling through a haze of pain. ]
Hey, Sam...?
[ He tries his best to contain it, but some of that pain leaks over the connection. Sorry, Sam. ]
[ There's a spike of distress that surges through the brood connection at way too late o’clock, tangled up in fear and a sense of emptiness similar to when Bucky fell into a coma, not as encompassing but sharper. It’s intense, but brief, and then Sam forcibly severs the connection, pulling back as best as he can. ]
