I'm losing the immersion here. The responses are sounding nothing like what would be coming from a US govt/military aircraft (or someone pretending to be one). They need to sound more formal, and not like,

I thought I would try to offer some suggestions to Genus...

What would happen if Lainsy put a desync field around just the plane? Would it simply fall out of the sky or could it be moved somewhere? Could that be detected by the USAF? That could buy some time and keep lives from being lost.

Reply:
Actually, the desync is not yet perfected. It will actually tear everything apart inside the field if activated. So no, not worth the shot

Sure am glad that didn't happen to us!

Email from Alex!!

Looks like Orein is in trouble. I do mean, BIG TROUBLE.

CIA is after him and has sent some troops to take him. I have no involvement in this, but Fred was the one who is trying to turn him over. Fred knows the Space Command Facility is key to the satellite network, so he wants that shutdown. I can't tell how to help Orein right now, but I think I can once he gets captured. However, I am worried that those pesky troops might not be able to handle this problem well. You know, Orein has some biohazard with him right now. And one small mistake of the troops can spell doom for everyone.

Right now, we'll have to wait. I know I hate waiting, but I don't want to see Orein's plan fall down like this. After all we've all gone through? Not today. Not now.

I sent Genus an email telling him what Alex said and that we would find a way to help him if he gets captured.

I think he can. but the assitance provided by LAINSY is vital. I don't know what his plans right now, is. But since he triggered LAINSY for full boot, we can think he's planning get out soon.
