Even though you have a PARADIGM from your own subconscious who's only purpose is to kill these glowniggers, you hesitate. This whole situation is off to you. Best case scenario she's messing with you.
Worst case? She's geninuely insane. You've never seen these guys crack THIS badly. Sure, they might lose their shit-eating grins when you blow a hole in their legs but their stock of Spooks can't be THIS stretched thin.
"Okay. We're going to eavesdrop her, see what she spills. Then we restraint her." You whisper to your allies. You're not too worried about being sneaky.
"To blow her brains out?"
"We'll decide that once we figure out what's wrong with her. If something else is driving her crazy, I don't want to be hit by it too."
Clover mutters with obvious distrust in his tone, "You sure?" It's clear he isn't the biggest fan of 'ask questions, shoot later'. Casey glances around to make sure the Spook isn't listening before facing Clover.
"If we get intel now there's a 100% chance we'll have an easier time stopping evildoers from hurting more people!" Casey's saccharine smile seems to be enough to push Clover's reservations for the time being.
"Fine. Go on."
You carefully lift your gas mask, making extra sure not to breath in any spores, to toss in some drugs (and a hunk of rock) into your mouth. You dry swallow it as soon as you secure the mask back on.
>-1 NOLNOL PILL, Q-CORP HEMP, and MOONSTONE FRAGMENT!
You pop your head into the open doorway so you can overheard what the Spook is saying. Well, this might be helpful if you could understand anything she's saying. That sickening electronic wobble blending in with her constant sniffling is making her words completely illegible to you.
You're only able to get out every fifth or six word she babbles out. It's going to take some mental effort to piece together anything she's saying but you soon piece together the following snippets.
<span class="mu-s">"Sick bastard...worshipping anomalies...Foxtrot...keeps hiding...know scent...here..."</span>
<span class="mu-s">"...Have to kill corporate pigs...running on borrowed time...need them to refuel OEDI implant...they spared me..."</span>
<span class="mu-s">"...Erase ourselves from the world...too many people know...need to purge B-Company...our father..."</span>
<span class="mu-s">"...production of...better agents successful...PSYKERs...to kill everyone who stands in..."</span>
<span class="mu-s">"...Shockley is a liability...went mad after failed attempt...will do something drastic...heard he's in R-Corp now..."</span>
Hm. It's very spotty but <span class="mu-s">PSYKER</span>? Guess that's what the Spooks call SPOOK SHIFTERs. That clone of yours that you fought might've been one of those; You might need to start using anti-anomaly rounds on spooks.
Seath has to be here as well. That helps narrows things down.
<span class="mu-b">Running on borrowed time, huh?</span> Could that be why she hasn't slept? You didn't see anything off with her but if she's a dead woman walking, maybe that's why she's having a freakout. If she doesn't kill, she's the one on the chopping block.
