New Muse.

Of course I knew it was only a matter of time before this happened. Personally, I'm quite glad for it though I hear that other fellow here hasn't taken too kindly to my presence. We're on the same side, so no reason to take it personally.

Too bad Margo and Vincent aren't around. I'm certain they'd have a grand old time of this.

Well, if that's all, then I think I'll be getting back to the lab. Weston left me a message that I have a package waiting for me and I'd like to get to work.

I recall Margo a few months back. However I have yet to whiteness Vincent; quite a shame. As I'm sure you agree, my shadowy friend.

[shadow_ag]

Margo's certainly capable of holding her own, wherever she's gone. Not to say any less of Vincent either. Either one would be a help.

[darknessiknow]

Indeed, neither are a slouch in trouble. Though that does not mean that I lack a sense of worry. We must look out for our own at times.

[shadow_ag]

Exactly. Still, I'd rather have them around. It certainly simplifies matters, having their help.

You'll have to pardon me. My mun's a bit delayed in sharing some important information. I knew your face seemed familiar, but it's a pleasure to realize how familiar.

[evillurks]

Which other fellow would that be? I must say I'm a little surprised, but I probably shouldn't be, by now.

[shadow_ag]

One who looks something like yourself, actually. I find it quite amusing, and now I've met two more it seems who are also cut from a similar cloth.

I can already hear Margo saying that one was enough trouble.

[evillurks]

I remember a Margo who was trouble enough, herself.

[shadow_ag]

Heh, trouble is the last word I'd use to describe Margo Lane. She's my best assistant.

[evillurks]

...Must not be the same girl.

[shadow_ag]

Most likely not. I'm certain she wouldn't miss a beat if I didn't make it in tomorrow.

[evillurks]

So she's... something of a scientist, herself?

[shadow_ag]

That she is. She has a brilliant head on her shoulders.

[evillurks]

I tend to prefer my assistants... at a distance.

[shadow_ag]

Mine are some of my closest friends. I don't know what I'd do without them.

[evillurks]

I don't have close friends. Too risky.

[shadow_ag]

Worth the risk, in my opinion.

[evillurks]

I'm sure it is for some.

[shadow_ag]

To each their own.
