"He wasn't my stepdad, he was a family friend- Okay. Explain, robot. This looks worse than the schematics he used to show me."
The schematic laid out on the table was clearly written either in a rush or during a mental breakdown since to be honest? You can't make out half of it. A lot of arrows are pointed towards the hastily scribbled blob of lines that you think is meant to be whatever invention he's trying to make.
However, it's clear Jin's drawing aptitude wasn't up to snuff this time around. It's like a man with Parkinson's drew this. Completely nonsensical.
Kiara taps a finger onto a slightly more legible section of writing.
"SHADOW CARVER DIMENSIONAL PROTOTYPE V1. DARKNESS IS PHYSICAL PRESENCE HERE. ABSCENE OF LIGHT TURNING INTO MATTER?"
"SOURCE OF DARKNESS: NATURAL VEINS IN THE SOURCE HERE. BEEN LIKE THIS SINCE 1995 (MIDDLE OF SMOG WAR, DEATH OF OLD WORLD). REMNANT OF OLD WEAPON?"
"HE WANTS TO STUDY IT. I OWN HIM THIS MUCH. HAVE TO MAKE THIS."
Now that you squint a bit, you can make out that it appears to be a drill of some sorts. A large, bulky drill with a lot of redundancies built into it. You make out labels like "HEAT RESIST **EVERYTHING**", "TENEBRIS DETECTION ALGORITHIM", "DARK SMOG CONTAINER. NEED SIX, STAR WANTS LOT."
Seath steps over to your huddled group. His one eye goes wide when he realizes what you're looking at. "Shit. You have to hide that stuff NOW."
"Wait. Clover. Didn't you say they dug too deep?" You're the first to pick up on why Seath is panicking. You recall a conversation you had with Clover two or so hours back.
Kiara's the second. "Oh. Oh shit, uh, this was only a prototype! It's not their current singularity, right?"
"Wait. You're telling me Jin-" Clover's about ready to question Seath but Seath simply shushes him.
"Hide that shit. I don't want a Judicator to know we have ANY paperwork on a fucking singularity."
Oh no. If Star helped to commission this, how responsible is he for D-Corp being- Oh fuck.
>OLD D-CORP SINGULARITY SCHEMATICS obtained! (A technical schematic of a specialized drill meant to harvest darkness for the purposes of dimensional alternation. <span class="mu-r">HIGHLY FUCKING ILLEGAL.</span>)
"Kiara, do you know where we can hide this?"
"Absolutely. We're hiding this the moment we can. Just make sure no one captures you with this or you're dead."
"Trust me! Death would be the <span class="mu-i">best</span> outcome if you're found with that."
Shit, okay, that's even more of a reason to get out of here once Clover gets all of the knicknacks he needs.
Benjamin is busy scanning the walls while everyone is freaking out over the highly illegal document they found here. "You know. How is that TV getting power again?" He's in his own little world again, huh?" "This place has been shut down for what. 25 years?"
[PERSON OF INTEREST] He's right. It would be a waste of energy. Someone had to come down here and turn it back on.
"Hey, Seath. Just a random question. Star IS still in the corrective facility, yeah?"
