Agents, uhhh, Serval and... Graphite, I... I'm not entirely sure what I'm seeing here. Are those anthroform drones physically body-blocking you? I think they're offering free samples? They're not being aggressive, but... This feels a bit aggressive. Listen, I'm going to-- just-- I don't think we-- uhh-- let's... this can't be mission critical, can it? Is it? I can' tell. It's, uh, it's all tangled up like noodles.
Well, whatever this all is, I don't think you're getting past those drones easily. They're small and breakable and go to about hip height so they (probably) can't actually hurt you, but I think it's more the principle of the thing.
Damn, and here I really thught TS Devonshire's plan was good - but at NODULARITY! is still open for business and powered. We can get her scanned there.

Agent Mammoth, Vennsfield, the foam has blocked anyone outside from looking in. Get what you can from the site then extract.
>No Physical Danger; Agent Vennsfield patched up. +1 Trauma. Trauma clears end of deployment.--
Agent Cheddar, Thorn, Rafflesia, Fetch is picking up something in the market. Not sure what. You don't have to take her there but maybe it'll lead to something. Bit of a commotion starting.

Agent Monarch, listen, I know he seems charismatic and he's half naked and oiled up and dissembling a motorcycle and yes I am going to remix this feed and upload it to a social site later and I expect it to go viral but listen, listen, that's post-structuralist narrativist reconceptualization of an inversed paradigm. You don't HAVE to buy into his discourse! Agent! Agent, focus!
>Arck, you took Discourse damage and now you're all existentially confused about the ideals of ideals. --
Agent Butterfly, scratch the hardware note in CHIPSHIP. Looks like it's an old-style full haptic feedback VR arcade. Retro. That's cool. They're running massive 3d environments on those compute racks. You a fan of SMASHRACER 3000? SHADESPRINTER? Something weird about those backrooms but it's not on any of my lists and the door is heavily secured. Odd.
Well, hey, sometimes places just turn out to be cool little holes in the wall. If you want to blow off some stress maybe go a few rounds of a game, or ask them if they've got any TunisTech variants with the safety limiters off. I'm kidding about that last one, Agent. Please don't direct-inject memetic gaming environments into your cognitive architecture, you'll catch Platforming.

Okay, Agents, I've incorporated some new data-streams and we're closing in on useful things. Finding Dr. Despango wetworks lab this early is a boon. But it's so busted up we'll need more data anyway. I can't believe those graduate students got... murdered. Who does that?

>AGENTS TO ROAM>Agent Graphite, Serval, not in focus mode, but watch your movement a little - there's a chance those NDLE drons will obstruct you if you ignore them.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRwCyD6Y7H8
