[outsidebones]

...I did find the notion of research and preparation rather compelling.

[guestservices]

I can clarify any questions you might have on it. I assume you're not officially requesting it yet.

[outsidebones]

Not just yet. I want to be certain I understand the terms I'm agreeing to. What manner of task? Will it be unpleasant in some way?

[guestservices]

They aren't intended to be easy, but I can at least say that they are unlikely to ask you to go against your morals, if that's what you fear.

[outsidebones]

...That was what I feared, yes. Difficulty is not an issue.

[she chews her lip.]

It cannot be used in trial, however? So the utility would be in determining whether another person I suspect has killed at some point, should I want to know that outside trial for my own purposes.

[guestservices]

Research & Preparation cannot be used in trial, correct. So that is one possible utility.

[outsidebones]

Hmm. In that case I think I will decline for now, and will reconsider if the time comes that I wish to identify a potential target.

[guestservices]

[they nod.]

That makes sense.

[outsidebones]

But I do appreciate your taking the time to explain. I appreciate the sensible notions of your offerings.

[guestservices]

We do try, mostly.

[outsidebones]

I meant you, more specifically, but yes.

[guestservices]

The others are fairly sensible as well, I'd say.

[outsidebones]

Yes? Do you get along with most of them?

[guestservices]

[a hum]

I would say so.

[outsidebones]

Any that you do not care for?

[guestservices]

Not really. I've met worse.

[outsidebones]

...Have you? [huh.] You must come from an interesting place.

[guestservices]

Does it seem that way? I imagine you've met worse as well.
