Stop me if you've heard the news already.

At the mid-month mark, I have a small team* flying down to the Kamchatka Peninsula to reclaim the deserted submarine base town of Bechevinka. The estimated capacity would be just shy of 900, above and below ground combined, if all the buildings are deemed viable by our resident architect. There've been long-time rumors of submarines being left down there after the Cold War ended, and I'm hoping that holds true. We could use more active vessels.

Wish them happy hunting.

ENGINEERING + DOM.

Recommendations for getting through thick metal bunker doors? Would a blowtorch get through the locking mechanisms?

TEAM KAMCHATKA.

With all of my chest, it is my sacred duty as mission lead to advise the following things:

• Do not pet the sea lions. If you go in the water, be careful of any rusted wreckage. We don't have any tetanus shots on board.
  
• If it's brown, lay down.
  
• Listen to Dom. He'll be your lead on the ground.
  
• Dom, listen to Nadine or Ishaan is going to push me off the ship.

[...] RONEN.

When do you want Alonzo back?

ADRI & PHILIP.

I need to confess something. [....] It's about Jamie.

(*ooc note: all relevant leadership were off-screen alerted to these volunteers this morning! they are delilah, apollo, jamie, and sloane. ishaan already knows.)

I still never said they weren't skilled. Eli's team is equally skilled. Or de Vries'.

[nishad]

Yours is also equally skilled.

[searlait]

Or slightly more so.

[nishad]

In your dreams.

[chemveil]

This is kind of embarrassing to watch.

[nishad]

[...] Why?

mash.

[chemveil]

The little sniping, the refusing to back down. It's a little cliche.

mash.

[nishad]

What should I be doing, then?

mash.

[chemveil]

Ignore it, probably.

mash.

[nishad]

I'll try that next time.

mash.

[chemveil]

I'm always right, so you should. [....] Are you upset about it?

mash.

[nishad]

I don't think it will surprise you that I am. [...] That she's making a point to block me from getting extras on supply runs, that is.

mash.

[chemveil]

Seriously? Tell her to cut it out.

Also yeah, I'm sure that's the only reason.

mash.

[nishad]

You don't need to say it like that. It's the reason.

I've heard that it's ok to have a hard time with an ex after a fucky break-up.

[searlait]

Received any movies from the ground lately?

[nishad]

You know the answer to that.

[searlait]

Maybe one of my team could find one if you recognised their skill.

[nishad]

I've already acknowledged their skill, Séarlait.

[searlait]

Did you? I only see you disagreeing and naming your own team.

[nishad]

You seem to have forgotten the part where I agreed that your team was equally skilled.

[searlait]

I can't read pointed italics.

[nishad]

Everyone here is talented. They wouldn't be here otherwise.

[searlait]

We agree on that.

[nishad]

Great.
