>Employee D, Entertain Egg of Human Endeavors. Vent about your frustrations to it. It is a good friend, after all.

"... so that's how I ended up here. I guess it kinda sounds like my own life gets in the way of my own life." Daisy titters. "Ain't it funny how it happens?"

[GRANDFARCE] Her words are serious, but she says the conclusion to her stories lightly. Easy! As! Pie! You can't seem to help yourself as a poisonous feeling wells up from inside. Effortless small talk without any *real* problems underneath.

Ah, but that's a harsh assessment to level at her, through this omniscient screen no less. You try to wave off this sudden malice. This morning's dream must still scratching its hooks and nails into you. Let's resolve the growing tension by just

"Oh. Well." Employee D dusts her hands off, with utter insouciance. "That's that. I guess we can all chat later. Oh ye, Chardy, where are ya? When are you going to fix up that banged up TV set the Manager brought in?"

"He left for guard duty the previous hour," Frank informs the magician. She sucks in a breath. "In addition... I would advise you and the other employees not to watch television during our regular working hours, unless it is required for an anomaly's work order."

"Geeeeeee," Daisy whines flatly. "It's just so boooooooring around here sometimes."

"That's a good thing more often than not, hun," Aleth says, staring into the ceiling, no, beyond the tiles and past the ceiling. Her hands are clasped together as she sits still in her seat. "We can't all live interesting lives all the time. It would get too tiring if we did."

"Forget it. You guys are just buncha old bats and ha-" Stopping mid-gesture and mid-sentence, the young lady stomps out of the room. Probably for the best, although Aleth continues staring, transfixed by that indeterminate point above the pitiful visible world.

(You seriously consider investing into an handyman or at least an interior decorator for these exposed pipes.)

... slam into the closest grey man with grand momentum and drive the bastard straight into the ground! You follow up by hammering his throat with your free hand. Panic sets in as his airway closes inwards without much fuss. Utterly efficient to the point of gut-churning nausea. You don't think you had that in you before...

You turn to see the second Louis capitalizing on the distraction to swing his shovel as hard as possible, cracking another Ghoul upside the head! His partner rushes over and slams the pickaxe head into her neck, the monster crumpling to the floor without a word.

The last man standing very wisely rushes off into the relative safety of the outside tunnels...

The relief of the room is palpable, but the tension is still electric. The two Louises convene and mutter among themselves, with a few pointed glances and whispers directed at your direction.

While a strange moment of disquiet runs through you, your City slicker instincts kick in and you rummage through the dead man's pockets.

ACQUISITIONS:
$8 (ink-stained)
Emergency air tank
Screwdriver (Phillips)
A half-eaten Big Mac (how did he..?)

You almost consider taking the emptied toolbox before Louis the first shakes your shoulder.

"Hey, we gotta go! This place is crawling with these freaks."

"You guys can lead me to the surface?"

"This is completely unexplored territory and a Black Zone to boot." Louis points to the open doorway. "The further we can get away from here, the better. We can fill you in on the rest when it's safer."

>What is the Agent's strongest SUIT in resolving conflict?
- [HANDS] Put away your treats and rush after the lone survivor. Finishing off the witness will probably prevent the future avenging plot.
- [HEARTS] Listen quietly for your pursuers' footsteps and prepare to lose them through the cancer of their own maintenance tunnels. Nothing should be heard but the deep breathing of the City.
- [EYES] Try to look for hiding spots in the nooks and crannies in this labyrinth of tunnels. A moment of reflection can create more options when there can't be any.
- [TEETH] Catch your breath and prepare to run after the more experienced Sanitechs into the darkness of the suburban layer. The stench of million-mile sewage burns your eyes and coats your tongue, but you'll survive, you must survive, as you always have done.
>Write in.

>"R Company"
I hiss through an AWARD-WINNING GRIMACE. Out of all the POWERS THE BE, there is only one that fits that horrible, horrible, horrible description. "You aren't one of those ABOMINATIONS, are you MISS POLITO?"

"Please tell Casey to stop using my moth-that name. I had a headache then from the lack of repairs and the point is that no, I am not a robot. I'm a CARD! You hear me? I've got BIG WORTH among the Alphabet Soup gang. Yes..." Several more clicks and beeps come from somewhere at the BACK OF BEYOND. I hum a little ADVERTISING JINGLE as the foul-smelling water rises to my chest. "And oh, congratulations on solving that PUZZLE."

Employee Morale -> YOU are filled with the SATISFACTION of a JOB WELL DONE.
HEART Core compatibility and function increased.
Another control console screen has been restored.
OVERVITALIZE needle acquired.

"So what happens now?" I ask with great EXPECTATION. My dog starts whining as as the FOUL WATERS touch his fur (or lack of). "Are there any more AMUSING TASKS that I need to do~"

"What! Why are you still here? Didn't you notice all my bl-" JEFFERY clears his throat. "YOU HORRIBLE SLACKING MAGGOT, you're one step closer to helping this woman! Now, for your next part of CORE MAINTENANCE, LEAVE IMMEDIATELY BEFORE YOU DROWN. Employee termination is a net negative for all corporate endeavors, from my understanding."

An EXTREMELY GRATING noise grinds out from the walls. "Hnnnghh, this is the worst part of repairs, the physical changes to it all and-"

I give the FACILITY SCREAMER a THUMBS UP (the universal sign of CORPORATE APPRECIATION for EFFORT!) as he rattles on about PIPEWORK. "HAVE A NICE DAY!"

"Unnrk. Thanks, ach, my guts-"

The SUSPICIOUS DISCHARGE splashes around me as I step into the EGRESS PIPE. The last thing that I see within the CORE room is the gleam of a CRIMSON EYE from its immurement in the far wall...

... and I as I step into the cold air of the first floor, I arrive JUST IN TIME to join in the facility-wide APPLAUSE at the end of the wonderful PERFORMANCE.
