[retravel]

Hi everyone,

If you don't already know me from the safehouse or the guide, I'm Fitz, one of the arrivals from the first transport. Prior to being here, I was a weapons and technology expert at SHIELD. Now, I’m a Pulsar engineer and, more importantly, an agent of Morningstar.

Recently, @ojiro.juniper approached me with the clever idea to kickstart some research and development efforts. We’re working on a way to bankroll this, and we’ll let you know how that develops in due course. For now, regardless of where discussions have evolved on the nature of organisation and leadership, we need your assistance with some big endeavors, both for the Displaced and Morningstar.

1. As some of you may know from the raids, Morningstar has a cache of unidentified weapons in its local store. We don’t know what they do, how they work, how dangerous they are, and so on, but I want to find out. So, let's discuss a plan: Any thoughts or ideas for how to approach the cache and suss everything out safely would be welcome.

Reckon we’ll need at least one colour-coded spreadsheet. [ ***NOT JOKING ]

2. We could use a team of engineers for ad hoc projects. Presently, I’m exploring tech that could counter both the UNA and the creatures that keep popping up, as well as give us more freedom to act whenever trouble comes our way — all by my lonesome.

If this sounds like something you’re interested in, whether or not you have the technical know-how to get to work immediately, or you want to learn on the job, let me know. Can’t pay you in anything except snacks, but I can assure you they’ll be bug free.

3. Hi, this is Ojiro. In addition to the above, I also need an engineer for personal reasons, and I will pay you. I need someone with a lot of experience with tech as advanced as the standard here, preferably lots of hands-on engine work. Message me if you're interested!

Cheers.

[ Check out here for more deets on the cache and here for some OOC knowledge of what Fitz is working on personally. He’ll share details of the latter strand of work with any individuals wanting to form a geek squad c: For #3, interested applicants can just private message Ojiro on this post! I'll be throwing together a plot engagement incorporating what characters ICly suggest in the coming weeks! ]

Framing it as wanting to know what's been done to us, specifically in regards to how our powers manifest? I'm sure that won't be a hard sell, Clarke.

[strove]

It usually isn't.

The hard part is where I've struggled to find answers for months myself because I sent off for tests without knowing what to ask.

[He wishes he could help, but he's not very scientifically minded, either.]

True. But it sounds to me like you'd have a control sample and something to compare it against. Easy enough to say that you just want to see if there's a difference between the two.

[Right? Right? Maybe? Look, he's just here to encourage.]

[strove]

I need more of a knowledge base to know what I'm even looking at. Saying, "yes, it's different" doesn't tell us how it's different.

But maybe I can see if I can speed run some courses soon.

[Their lives are too busy for Clarke to speed run medical school, unfortunately.]

[saviorexe]

I think that might be a little too ambitious, even for you.

[POT MEET KETTLE]

MS is extending its range of contacts. Rebuilding, so to speak. [Slowly but surely.] Might be able to find resources in that vein, in the unlucky event you can't find a Displaced to aid you.

[strove]

I don't want to endanger anyone for our purposes, but I don't think it would hurt for you guys to find someone who can do that for you.

[saviorexe]

Believe me when I say that we're working on it.

[As a generalized statement, it works, too.]
