So, this Smith thing? I'm goin' to it. Yeah it's a bad idea, whatevah, blah blah blah. Someone's gotta find out what's goin' on, right? Might as well be me!

I heard some of ya are thinkin' 'a goin' too. So who's in with me? Any plans?

[A pause.]

Is there like, ANY of my team left in this stinkin' town 'r what? Engie? Doc? Youse guys still alive, right?

Hmmm, I'm thinking that they might lock us in the house and screw around with us...

...But something looks odd on that invitation though, wasn't there a John Smith?

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Prob'ly. Same ol' same ol', right?

Yeah! That's what I thought. I mean, "Jack" is a nickname fer John, so I mean, it could still be the same guy? But that don't mean they couldn't 'a swapped out the old drnoe fer a new one, right? Happens all the time 'round here.

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

Right!

Yeah, but that only happened to families that had people like us, right? It seems kinda weird that a drone family would have one of their own swapped out for another drone. But, no point worrying about that yet...

...Still, there's no way I'm going there unarmed.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's a little fishy fer sure. I guess tomorrah we'll find out if it's a new guy 'r not.

Oh yeah! I don't go anywhere in this town with at least my pistol on me. Ya need a weapon?

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

Ah, yeah. I've got my sniper rifle back, but I doubt that will be much help inside a house possibly full of people.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

I got a coupla spares, I can lend ya one. I know that girls have a hard time gettin' guns around here.

A sniper rifle, huh? That's pretty sweet!

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Scout! I owe you one.

Hehe, it's kinda old, but it still works pretty well.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

No problem, pally!

Too bad ya weren't here when my team's Sniper was. Say whatcha want about the guy, but he was a real good shot. Ya coulda talked some shop with him. Ya any good with it?

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I like to say I'm a pretty good shot. [This is the closest to smug that April will ever be.]

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

Good ta know! That might come in handy here someday.

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

Yep!

...Oh, I'll also be bringing my dog along as well! I'll be keeping him outside while we're in the house though, so that he can keep watch in case anything weird happens.

[freakinblur.livejournal.com]

You got a watchdog? That's pretty cool. Sounds good!

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

Watchdog? Yeah, I guess you can call him that. [Said dog is also made out of electricity.]
