2	Acele	"Okay."		3
3	None			194 193 5 7 31 78 34
4	You	"Why wouldn't it be?"		6
5	You	"Tell me about Andre."		10
6	Acele	"I don't know man, have you been down Boogie Street? It's a little bewildering."		97 9
7	You	"Tell me about Noid."		21
8	Kim Kitsuragi	"Tore it to pieces."		100
9	You	"Oh, I'm sorry... have I not told you I'm a raging alcoholic who recently drank himself into an oblivion so deep he can't even remember what sounds like the biggest street in the city?"		116
10	Acele	"Andre? He's a cool guy. Doesn't really come off as one, but he is. To me at least..."		14
11	Encyclopedia	The worst of the banlieues. A wretched heap of closed-down mines even west of Jamrock, on the dusty slope of Mont Martin. The remotest possible area of Revachol, no one even wants to exploit those people anymore.		76
12	Acele	"Who do you want to know about?"		3
13	Acele	"He's in some kind of a self-destruction mode with that hair of his. Bleaching it like that. Probably wants to get rid of it altogether."		89 56
14	None			15 16
15	None		Variable["ice.acele_you_know_shes_on_drugs"]	18
16	None		(Variable["ice.acele_you_know_shes_on_drugs"]) == false	30
17	Acele	"Is there a law that would stop me from lying, though?"		80
18	Perception (Sight)	She rubs her sides, but not from cold. Her shoulders are relaxed. She must have taken a hit or she's on an upswing.		30
19	You	"But I'm a police officer. You have to answer me."		17
20	You	"What does he do?"		130
21	Acele	"He's a Faubourger I guess, like the rest of us. Okay, maybe not Egg, I don't know about him, but Noid and the rest are from Faubourg, making the pilgrimage up north to visit The Paliseum."		187
22	None			20 94 129
23	Inland Empire	You wish you'd been there.		104
24	Inland Empire	This is the first time you've heard her laugh.		13
25	Acele	"It means I don't answer questions about myself."		41
26	Acele	"Come to think of it, yes!" She laughs.		24
27	Acele	"What do you want to know?"		22
28	You	"Could it be that he's balding? Him thinking it's his last chance?"	Variable["ice.andre_perception_saw_boysnothigh"]	26
29	You	"Okay, lets leave it at that then."		58
30	Acele	"He takes care of shit. Sorry, I mean he's got a vision. Of what life should be, you know? He tries to push things until everything falls into place. He's an organizer."		103 124
31	You	"What's the deal with Egg Head?"		32
32	Acele	"What do you mean?"		67
33	You	"What does that mean?"		25
34	You	"Thank you. Some other questions."		35
35	None			External: (595, 74)
36	Acele	"Uh, yes. Anyway."		28 89
37	You	"What does he think he's doing when he yells all that stuff?"		40
38	You	"Where's he from? How long has he been with you guys?"		74
39	You	"Tell me about the others."		99
40	Acele	"Oh, that... he's the party boy."		42
41	None			19 149 62
42	You	"What's a party boy?"		44
43	Acele	"I'm a silver bird."		206
44	Acele	"Anodic music doesn't really do vocals in the traditional sense. Vocals are thought of as rock. That's to say they're a bit backward. No offence if you like rock music, though. Rock music is cool by me."		51
45	You	"On his mother's love?"		36
46	Acele	"Uh, okay..." She nods.		47
47	Acele	"Anyway, even if you don't have vocals you still need someone to say something every now and then, right? To urge things on. That's where the party boy comes in..."		59
48	You	"God damn right, rock music is the coolest. Rock music forever!"		57
49	You	"No offence taken, go on."		47
50	You	"You don't have to tell me rock music is dead. I abandoned rock music a long time ago. Can't disco to rock!"		46
51	Conceptualization	Ptew ptew! Sweeesh! Your credentials as the resident Futureman of Revachol are being questioned. Show her you're hip with the times, gramps!		48 49 50
52	You	"On life?"		36
53	Kim Kitsuragi	"Unfortunately, I can confirm that."		88
54	You	"Tore that shit up."		8
55	None			3
56	You	"Tell me about the others."		114
57	Acele	"Yes." She nods studiously. "Forever..."		47
58	Acele	"Yes, better that way..."		55
59	Acele	"He basically just stands on the stage and dances and yells how awesome everything is. It's very catchy."		137
60	None			3
61	Acele	"Thank you."		60
62	You	"Fair enough."		61
63	Kim Kitsuragi	"I understand. People are usually afraid to do things if others aren't already doing them. Dancing makes you dance like sneezing makes you sneeze. Or yawning makes you..."		65
64	Kim Kitsuragi	"Yes, I suppose we did."		54 100
65	Kim Kitsuragi	"Anyway..." He looks around, a little embarrassed of the enthusiasm of his interjection.		153
66	You	"Actually, no."		58
67	None			37 38 39
68	Acele	"What do you want to know?" She smiles a little.		192
69	None			70 71
70	None		Variable["ice.acele_empathy_felt_memory_egg"]	23
71	None		(Variable["ice.acele_empathy_felt_memory_egg"]) == false	104
72	You	"Yes, I forgot. Tell me about yourself."		43
73	Kim Kitsuragi	"That would depend on the circumstances." The lieutenant taps his foot.		106
74	Acele	"Actually, we don't know where he's from. Or who he is, really."		79
75	Acele	"Me?"		72 66
76	Acele	"Egg was yelling along to some jams someone was spinning, all night long. Just kept yelling until he didn't have a shred of voice left. When the sun came up over the mines... there were mines? Yeah, it was in Coal City!" She nods.		77
77	Acele	"Egg came with us. He made this wheezing puppy dog sound all the way back. Couldn't even speak."		83
78	You	"Actually, do tell me about yourself."	Variable["ice.acele_associates_secret_counter"] >2	75
79	Acele	"One time we were out partying, somewhere in backwater Faubourg. Or maybe even Coal City, I can't remember. Maybe it was Coal City..."		90
80	None			81 82
81	None		IsKimHere()	73
82	None		(IsKimHere()) == false	106
83	Acele	"It was definitely Coal City, because it took us two days to walk back to the Fau. He just wheezed the whole way, we never really asked him why he came with us. Or who he was. I think his name is Germaine..."		85
84	None			22
85	Acele	"People are sweet," she says quietly.		87
86	You	"It's unlikely I'll make it there. Chest pains. Need to continue drinking. But thank you."		164
87	Empathy	You can see it must have been a great night. The memory causes her to go silent for a moment or two.		69
88	Acele	"Okay." She shrugs. "To each his own."		84
89	You	"Is Andre your boyfriend?"		113
90	None			91 92
91	None		Variable["tc.coal_city"]	76
92	None		(Variable["tc.coal_city"]) == false	11
93	Acele	"It's just something poor Faubourg kids do every spring, to pass the time. We walk the entire length of Boogie Street, up to Jamrock. Or as much as possible."		4
94	You	"What is this pilgrimage you're talking about?"		93
95	Empathy	A quick response. She's very sure of it. He's someone she feels she can trust and even control, if need be.		28 56
96	You	"I might just do that if I make it there alive."		157
97	You	"Let's say I haven't been down Boogie Street."		131
98	You	"Oh, and I'm also a raging fascist who doesn't approve of different people -- so no, I don't think I'll be going."	IsTHCPresent("revacholian_nationhood")	125
99	None			12
100	You	"Tell me more about Egg."		68
101	None			22
102	You	"We certainly saw that in practice, didn't we?"		64
103	You	"What has he organized?"		105
104	None			67
105	Acele	"Nothing. But then again... there's nothing to organize around here either. He really wants this church thing to work..."		186
106	None			41
107	Acele	"I've never seen him so psyched about anything though -- and he's often psyched. Looked sort of desperate, like it's his last chance or something. Or maybe he was just high..."		111
108	None			109 110
109	None		Variable["ice.noid_hard_core_answered"]	141
110	None		(Variable["ice.noid_hard_core_answered"]) == false	145
111	Acele	"I mean, not that he does drugs. Just high you know."		52 45 115
112	None			22
113	Acele	"Yes." She nods.		95
114	None			12
115	You	"Relax, girl. I am a police officer, but I'm perfectly corrupt. You can tell me about drugs and shit, I don't care."		117
116	Acele	"Uh... no?"		159 151
117	None			118 119
118	None		IsKimHere()	121
119	None		(IsKimHere()) == false	36
120	Acele	"He abides by the hard core, sir. You would have to ask him yourself."		189
121	Kim Kitsuragi	"Yeah. Drugs. Shit. Fuck. We don't care." He smirks.		36
122	None			12
123	None			12
124	You	"Tell me about the others."		123
125	None			126 127
126	None		IsKimHere()	53
127	None		(IsKimHere()) == false	88
128	None			102 100
129	You	"Actually, tell me about the others."		122
130	Acele	"What do you mean, 'do'? Like for a living?"		132 134
131	Acele	"Okay, then you should go and take a look, I guess. Boogie Street is cool. It's got a lot of immigrants and all kinds of different people."		98 96 86
132	You	"Yes."		136
133	Acele	"There is."		106
134	You	"No, I meant for breakfast. Of course for a living."		136
135	Acele	"Alright." She picks up the tape recorder and looks you in the eye...		133
136	Acele	"He's a carpenter. Trained and all. He's very good, he just doesn't have the mindset to work like that -- in a shop somewhere."		108
137	None			138 139
138	None		IsKimHere()	63
139	None		(IsKimHere()) == false	190
140	Acele	"Sure..." she says, slightly disoriented. "What do you want to know?"		112
141	You	"Is that because of his beliefs? The hard core and the ribs, the... spinal cord and stuff?"		142
142	None			143 144
143	None		Variable["ice.noid_protorave_aesthetic_conceptualization_done"]	148
144	None		(Variable["ice.noid_protorave_aesthetic_conceptualization_done"]) == false	146
145	You	"What kind of mindset is that?"		120
146	Acele	"Not to sound too dramatic, but I wouldn't make light of his belief system when he's around. Noid's a serious person. He's serious about the lifestyle."		188
147	You	"Tell me more about him."		158
148	Acele	"Wow. You really have talked to him." She smiles. "Indeed. Noid serves no master but the beat."		189
149	You	"There's more to you than you let on. What am I not seeing?"	Variable["ice.acele_ie_told_deeper_than_lets_know"]	135
150	You	"And you?"		152
151	You	"Because I'm not. Now tell me something else about Noid."		140
152	Acele	"Sir," she gives you a switchblade smile. "I abide by the law."		161
153	None			154 155
154	None		Variable["ice.andre_composure_got_kim_dancing"]	128
155	None		(Variable["ice.andre_composure_got_kim_dancing"]) == false	191
156	Inland Empire	A strange feeling... like before, when you caught her lying better than she should have. Every now and then something feels off about the way she speaks. She doesn't exactly change tone, but you feel as though there's more about her than she lets on.		101
157	Acele	"Yeah," she says, then opens her mouth like she's about to add something, but doesn't.		84
158	None			27
159	You	"Well, I am."		131
160	Inland Empire	A strange feeling... Every now and then, something feels off about the way she speaks. She doesn't change tone, but you feel as though there's more about her than she lets on.		101
161	None			162 163
162	None		Variable["ice.acele_understood_she_good_lier"]	156
163	None		(Variable["ice.acele_understood_she_good_lier"]) == false	160
164	Acele	"They do say death is an avenue. Like all the others." She's silent for a second like she's going to add something. But she doesn't.		84
165	Acele	"Acele."		173
166	You	"And your surname?"		168
167	You	"Acele who? I'm not a young suitor, this is official police business."		171
168	Acele	"Why?"		181 185
169	None			External: (595, 60)
170	Perception (Sight)	Her hair is dyed blonde, with dark roots showing. There's a coarseness to her features, some masculinity below that timidness.		166 167
171	Acele	"Okay..." She hesitates. "It's Berger."		213
172	Authority	You have little reason to doubt that's her real name, but... she's not all that surprised by this cop-show questioning, is she?		169
173	None			174 175
174	None		Variable["ice.acele_noticed_her_dyed_hair"]	180
175	None		(Variable["ice.acele_noticed_her_dyed_hair"]) == false	170
176	None			177 178
177	None		Variable["ice.acele_knows_youre_cops"]	169
178	None		(Variable["ice.acele_knows_youre_cops"]) == false	182
179	None			External: (595, 284)
180	None			166 167
181	You	"I'm from the police. It's for the paperwork."		171
182	None			183 184
183	None		Variable["ice.acele_cant_find_out_she_knew_cops"]	169
184	None		(Variable["ice.acele_cant_find_out_she_knew_cops"]) == false	172
185	You	"Why indeed? Forget it."		179
186	Acele	"Must have taken it as a sign when he found it abandoned like that. Said it was an augury. I don't know where he got that from." She smiles. "Andre's not super intelligent..."		107
187	Acele	"He's real hard core about the lifestyle."		22
188	None			22
189	None			150 147
190	None			67
191	None			67
192	None			67
193	You	"What do you think of the crab-man?"		195
194	You	"Tell me about Soona."	Variable["church.soona_evicted"] == false	210
195	Acele	"Oh, the crab-man." She shudders. "Still gives me the creeps, the way he moves... But he doesn't actually come down that much, just climbs around the rafters."		212
196	None			201
197	You	"What does he do up there?"		203
198	You	"Thanks. About the others..."		202
199	You	"Oh, he talks to Noid? What for?"		200
200	Acele	"Beats me... Noid said they get along, somehow. They're both crazy enough, I guess."		196
201	None			199 197 198
202	None			12
203	Acele	"Who knows?" She shrugs. "He doesn't really answer our questions, see. Not that it's easy to ask them. What are we supposed to do, yell up at the tower?"		196
204	Reaction Speed	There's that phrase again. It really reminds you of... something.		33 29
205	Reaction Speed	Hang on, that phrase. You're suddenly reminded of... something.		33 29
206	None			207 208
207	None		Variable["ice.acele_heard_about_silver_bird"]	204
208	None		(Variable["ice.acele_heard_about_silver_bird"]) == false	205
209	None			3
210	Acele	"Uh... she's a bit odd, I have to say. Doesn't talk much. I'm not really sure how to vibe with her, y'know? Seems like she's not in a very good mood most of the time."		211
211	Acele	"But earlier today she told me about... welkins?" Acele grimaces, as if it's the first time hearing the word. "And she seemed oddly happy. Like she had had some idea with those... little creatures. Some artistic idea. I didn't really listen, I was busy with my mic."		209
212	Acele	"I just try to stay away from the crab-man, but he talks to Noid. They seem to have some 'thing' going on."		201
213	Logic	A very common name.		176
