"I told <span class="mu-b">Lucius</span> that we could not invest in space travel. It is not the 1950s anymore and <span class="mu-b">this is not America anymore.</span> We need to focus on the new tech available to us."
"Can you blame a girl for being optimistic? If we could find ways to resign people without it being traced back to us, that would be a dream..."
SPACE AGE MYSTERY SOLVED!
>PROJECT THORN. A project made by Y-Corp and the Yue family to excise themselves into space. To escape the City.
>A satellite system made with I-Corp's help allows those living in space to communicate with each other and the City. They must've learnt about the spooks due to their attempts to send their own weapons into space.
>The Head either doesn't know about them or does, but they do not oppose it and were tricked into shooting it down.
>Even Space is not exempt from these damn spooks and their constant yearn for control. If PROJECT:THORN was allowed to go off without a hitch, there would always be that one thorn in their side. Forever.
>Perhaps if you can find a way to communicate with those in the stars, you can get some help. You DO have their tech...
>STAT BOOST OBTAINED! You gain +1 COGNIZANCE and MAX RESTRAINT!
"That's why we need to get in with I-Corp. Or to at least find whatever old world artifacts are here to help us." Noelle is fiddling with her shoes but she stops. "Feh. I wish I could go home so I can kick these off and relax."
"You can bother the Vannis about it later. Focus."
"Mmh. Should we hunt them down? I imagine <span class="mu-r">that little tale was MORE than enough to lure them right where we wanted them.</span> I know Noelle LOVES information~!"
"Indeed." The two of them stand up from their table, grabbing the documents left on the table. "Or to at least 'resign' the hunters."
"Indeed!"
The two of them immediately snap their gaze back to the shelf you're hiding behind. You know they're bluffing since otherwise, you know they would be running over to your group RIGHT now. R-right?
You glance at your allies. None of them are willing to say a single word lest they draw attention to where your group is hiding.

...You can't get a read on them. Well, you can read your doppelganger just fine but those are YOUR stats. With YOUR equipment on. You have no idea if those are fake stats and her real stats are different or if she's an EXACT copy of you.
Checking to see what Noelle threw near you...
