Quoted By:
Your name is Vincent Cruz. You work in a shady government-backed facility in the middle of the New Mexico desert. By all accounts, you are a complete and total nobody to the Powers That Be. To them, your only value comes from how profitable your research is.
You're a researcher for the Abnormality Regulation Coalition (also known as ARC), but it's really not what you're good at. You were a random accountant before they dragged you into an underground facility that's hundreds of feet underground. Their standards must be low if they kidnapped someone like you.
On the bright side, you've been making good progress with all of the anomalies you've been researching. Maybe that's why they hired you? You have a knack with anomalies and their ARTIFACTS. You were told anomalies were born from human ideas and concepts, so maybe this is just you trying to help anything resembling a human? Who knows.
All you know is that it's what you're good at, and that alone is enough to keep you going. One day at a time. No matter what gets thrown your way, you'll find a way to handle it.
As for what happened recently?
NOWHERE'S SOMMELIER's condition is starting to rapidly deteriorate. It seems to be the inevitable fate of anomalies once you get to truly understand them. You're trying your best to stabilize her condition.
Your cat, EL FELINO, exploded. In its place, you were left with an anomaly named LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE, who has set out to do everything in its power to make your life miserable.
Against your better judgement, you've agreed to work with a woman who's been stalking you for the last few days. You still don't get Venti's deal or why she's obsessed with you of all people. At least she works hard.
At least you dealt with Angel's (your brother) stalker, Yorick. While you don't care for Yorick himself, he did say some very concerning things about your estranged father.
You tracked down and dealt with a Harvester who was harassing you, and in the process, you somehow got even closer to one of your most loyal coworkers.
Finally, you're getting progress on a case involving the ghost of a former ARC employee. Maybe you're not the best at solving murder mysteries, but you at least want the ghost to finally rest in peace.
You've got a lot on your plate, but hey, that's how your life has always been, hasn't it? At least this time, you're doing something that actually matters. Something that people will actually appreciate. Is it wrong for you to want to be acknowledged? For people to pay attention to the amount of blood, sweat, and tears you pour into your work?
Oh well. You know what they say, Vincent. Another day, another dollar. As long as you keep moving, as long as you keep working, everything will work out.
