I suppose hearing that you'd get punished for it might've inspired others to do poorly. Either way, we got the crap done and I guess that's all that matters.
[Maybe if she were a more emotional type, she'd yell at him over transferring her wife Kagari, but she didn't come all the way to make friends. Regardless, she knew how much of an ass he was to deal with, so it made sense as to why he'd be transferred away anyway.]

Hey, you did what you had to.
Is that why we were suddenly brought over there? To repay for the favor by getting carvings?

Sadly no, we're getting paralyzed. On the bright side, it's neverending violence before the paralysis, so the trip should be worth it.
We're bringing greens along though, they'll be useful. Somehow.
no subject
Oh, lame. At the very least, the trip sounds like it'll be fun.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
If you're bringing Mikasa, she'll be useful. Dunno about everyone else, though.
Send them ahead to deal with the paralysis. They're good at being meat shields, at least.
no subject
That's part of the plan.
I forgot to say - I'm glad about the last trip out. There's hope for this team after all. Bosses are glad.
no subject
At least there's a method to your madness.
You mean they actually found a place for all those carvings we brought back? I guess even the ones that fucked up last time learned their lesson.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I'm glad too. I don't have to be as embarrassed by everyone else.
no subject
I might just actually trust the whole. Incoming new faces notwithstanding.
Bosses had a use for it, which as a measure of defense they told me. So I'm pretty screwed if you'd all failed.
no subject
It's pretty convenient that a good chunk of the ones that failed before got sent back to Lusania, huh?
Don't know about too many of the people we picked up, but hopefully they don't fuck up too bad.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
But geez. If I knew it was your ass on the line, I would've tried to get you two.
no subject
Hence the gag order. Bosses, you know. Sometimes they have ridiculous expectations.
Takes one to know a bunch, but that's beside the point.
. . .And I may have had a hand with the transfer roster. Maybe.

We actually needed to work there, yeah. Carvings were a specific sidetrip. Not much I can say about that beyond, well. That.
Sorry if you lost someone. No hard feelings.
no subject
If you can't talk about it, don't fret. It's none of my business, I can deal.
I don't have anything or anyone to lose. But thanks for the sentiment anyway.
[Because really, she's not one to admit to attachments to anyone; that shit led to danger as an assassin.]

Also, I'm not sure if it was you or not that left the stuff at my rover or not.
But thanks, if it was you.

That was me. Did you like it? Was it okay? I wasn't sure what color you liked.
no subject
Yeah, actually. I tend to gear toward black and purple, but I like red a lot too.
I needed something a little different, so it's pretty awesome.

Maybe the threats finally crawled into their ears and nested. It only took a handful of murders along the way.
no subject
Hopefully. Just a handful of murders really isn't that much, that is pretty impressive.
[Says the assassin, anyway.]
