As I understand it, they are a group which is able to do things fairly un-noticed around the city. Well I have a little favor that I need somebody like that to do for me so I was wondering if you could maybe set me up with the right person? I can make it worth your while, just name it... Credits? Karma? Something Else? But I need you to be discreet about it whatever you do. If I've misjudged you, then don't worry about it, but I don't think I have.

Well now. I could most likely help out... but what do I ask for? I gots me plenty of credits (and I doubt I'll be spending them any time soon). Not going to waste a big favour on pretend cyber, either Twisted Evil As for Karma, the whole system is pretty much out to get me, so the value of Karma is dubious at that point... Guns? Real info about the inner working of the Corps, or about the War? So many choices...

Mostly Tara and I have been talking about trophy wives and whatnot. She says she has some secrets. I'm too lazy to post everything since it seems like idle chatting, but if anyone wants to see it just let me know and I'll email them to ya.

I recently sent Tara a message saying that I missed talking with her. I received back two messages (btw Tara and I had been having fun male bashing)

I've offered to help her, so we'll see how it goes!

Nothing too bad. Just enough to boost our ego that we can replace you LOL But I said that you were too amusing to get rid of Wink and you see her reply. So far that's my favourite quote fo the game

Tara asked me for help too, I was waiting to know what the favor was before I posted it, but she didn't respond. I reminded her, and yesterday she sent.

hello johnny - I've been doing a little digging myself - but yes. I could use your help if you are still willing

I told her of course, I'm curious if its the same favor she asked of VioletNightshade, or something else.

Someone I need to protect sent me this:

"Chris; this is the guy that designed the interface in my time, 2007, and he seems to have a lot of power over the computer systems of your time and perhaps abilities that even Tang Fujimoto can't match. I would be careful if I were you, though."

Is it true?

I put Tara in contact with Chris (future).

Thanks johnny, you are a saint.

I met with the man you suggested, and he has taken matters into his own hands. I owe you.

Name your reward. Creds? Prestige? ...something ELSE?


I'm not sure there's anything I want/need. I'll have to think about it.

I received a very similiar message. I wonder why there was a double task? Johnny, what did you ask for?

From my message exchanges with Tara, it would appear that she is trying to get her hands on "something", - btw - I do not know what that "something" is, but perhaps someone else does?

The reason for her wanting someone who has extensive control/access/knowledge of the computer systems is possibly related to the MWU's, (as per the Lisa Graham thread), but again, I could be completely wrong.

I might also be wrong about this, but another problem I see, is that we don't actually know what the motives/allegiances of either of Lisa or Chris, so have we done either or both of them a dis-service by putting them in contact with each other??

I'm sure I'll be suitably trouted on anything I have got wrong, and just sharing my thoughts, as rubbish as they may be.

Well this is OOG, but Chris (future) told me he wouldn't help Tara, and he thought

I ask him what her "silly ideas" are, but I haven't heard back yet. Needless to say I'm a little confused by her telling me "he has taken matters into his own hands".

I haven't asked for anything yet, since I'm not really sure what I want/need. I kind of suspect that she at least knows something about the God Killer, if not involved in the killings, so I might press her for information on that subject as my favor. I'm hesitant though, because I have a feeling I might not get any straight answers, or just plain false information.

Not really interaction with Tara, more like information about her.

A while back, Chris told me Tara's family history is quite scandal-ridden. Theophilus implied (ok, told me) that Phil's girlfriend from our time was the mother. Present-Adam thought her name was "Darlene", but I'm convinced now that Saint Dailine's Church has surfaced that she's Tara's mother. A very dead mother, at that.

For one thing, she's credited as a Founder--considering she was close with Phil in 2012, that's a definite. I wrote Father Ziod to see what information he'll reveal about Dailine's life and death...maybe that'll explain why all the Underground people are raising such a fuss.
