( after sending multiple notes + a video (an entirely different sort of embarrassing 'survivor' audition tape), crane receives a text. )

Your services in exchange for?

[It's not a yes. But it's certainly not a no, either. That's hopeful sounding.]

I'd need supplies and equipment, of course.
I can send you a list of chemicals required.
Video of inhabitants and the technology to watch it. This can be limited to fear-related occasions, I don't care as much about their day-to-day lives.
Clean clothes that aren't your delightfully wacky gas station t-shirts.
A forewarning of future experiments might be nice.

[vestigemods]

Send your list of supplies and chemicals.

There's too much footage to send it all, even just the fear. Give us names and we'll see what we can do about their footage.

Dare we ask your stylistic preferences?

Forewarning is conditionally dependent on the quality of your work.

[timetoplaynow]

[Well, he was not entirely expecting that, but he's happily surprised. He sends along his list of chemicals and chemistry equipment needed.]

I'll also require a laptop, as well as notebooks, pens, and pencils. I'll need to record all my findings, after all.

As for the clothes, a few new suits would be nice. Underwear, obviously, and a pair of pajamas. Keep me comfortable and away from flannel and I'm happy.

[vestigemods]

One new suit per month of usable information provided. Underwear and pajamas, fine.

To be clear about the terms of our little bargain, we offer no immunity from death or suffering, and if you lack the discretion to keep your work from public eye, we will not be there to protect you from whatever form of justice they seek.

You receive occasional creature comforts and the ability to pursue your research, with the addition of forewarning pending results.

[timetoplaynow]

This all seems very reasonable.

I have every intention of keeping this from the public eye, of course. If they find out, I lose all my work, too.

I think we have ourselves a deal.

[vestigemods]

Expect your requisitions in 3 to 5 business days.

( and that's that.

the supplies do arrive as assured, in 3 separate batches. first clothes, then note-taking supplies (the laptop is not terribly powerful but is sufficient for note-taking and the review of footage), and then the laboratory supplies and chemicals. it's worth noting that he receives a very limited supply of each of the chemicals, at least for now. )
