"I don't know. Perhaps the bundle of clothes was already in the clothes it picked... They were quite obviously not the person's own, given how unfitting they were." Akio replied, shrugging his shoulders again. He leant back in the chair when Rio asked him about his thoughts on the documents - yes, indeed, he'd read them a good dozen of times already. "Well... To tell the truth, some members of the community seem to have reached the same conclusions as I have. The mention of "home office" might mean that the real root of the matter isn't here, in Nagashima. I think it's still too early to come to any conclusions concerning the exact nature of Shadows at this point, but it's likely that the essence by which they are created existed long before any of this started." he started, putting his hands together - it'd been a little hard to swallow that there existed things that defied the laws by which the universe operated at first, but he'd come to accept that they were nothing but the exception that proved the rule. Scientific minds had to keep themselves flexible, after all. "The one element that caught my interest is this single line about a "cargo elevator". Since no one has discovered it yet, we can assume that it's localized in the area of the Ruins that have recently been discovered. The presence of a cargo elevator both indicates an opening to the outside, and the presence of deeper floors. If it's still working - let's not get our hopes up too much here -, it could potentially be used as a quicker way to explore the deeper floors. I believe we should concentrate our efforts on its discovery." he continued, realizing that he'd talked quite a lot and needed to let Rio react to his words. |

Rio nodded along as Akio spoke. What the boy was saying made sense, and she agreed with his assessment of things: he seemed pretty sharp, if somewhat timid and overly polite. "Okay, so...we have three main areas to look into: the cargo elevator, the home office, and whatever this 'anomaly' shit beneath us is. Wait, no...four. The previous group might have found more that we haven't, right? Perhaps we're just finding their leavings. God that burns me... Anyway, you're...science club, right? You're a member? Do you have any thoughts on this chemical analysis thing we've been talking about? It seems like the sort of thing that should have been done already, but apparently we just skipped over that." The boy had found a document, and that had brought him to her attention. Now that he was here, she intended to pick his brain for anything that reading over the documents -- or simply having a different perspective -- might have led him to. The librarian seemed to be getting deep into it, perhaps asking the boy to go speak with him, should Akio have come up with anything, would be helpful. |

Akio nodded his head when Rio stated that he was in science club - his eyes drifted to the ceiling after the girl asked him his thoughts on the whole chemical analysis plan - they were a bit conflicted, to tell the truth. "I'd say that it's something worth going for, but the problem's how we're going to go about it. Collecting some Shadow goo sounds easy enough, sure, but how exactly are we going to analyze it ? We'd need a professional-grade lab to analyze it from scratch, and the knowledge necessary to operate it. I may be in science club, but that's far beyond my reach." he replied. He was more of a physics guy, even - sure, he knew all about enantiomers and the like, but that was very basic. The boy joined his hands in a pyramid of fingers. "Besides... while knowing what this goo is made of might be useful, there's a rather high chance that it's made of something that is completely foreign from anything we've ever seen in our world, and as such might not be possible to analyze." he added, looking at the pyramid of fingers on his lap thoughtfully. "Still, it's worth going for. But we must be ready for a pretty big disappointment, even if we pull it off." |

Rio nodded, then offered: "Well...even if we don't understand it, at least we might be able to figure out why we don't understand it and study from there." She furrowed her brow and looked at the computer. She had to find a way to get him talking more on different subjects. "I'm just wondering what we aren't thinking to check," she said with a frown. "Apparently we've never thought to test the shadow-stuff. There's bound to be other just-as-obvious things staring us right in the face." She opened up Bedlam again, having just added the two new Documents to the index, and began typing away. "How are you at lateral thinking?" she asked, looking over at Akio. |

"Indeed..." Akio replied as he turned the thoughts again in his head, his eyes going back to the ceiling as he tried to mobilize all these well-made brain cells he'd been gifted with. Something they were forgetting to check... something so obvious, no one had ever thought of checking it... something they'd probably suddenly realize someday, but would be better off figuring out now. "Well... the presence of a cargo elevator might indicate that there is another access from the outside... Perhaps there is some knd of cargo bay in the outer floors ? Sorry, but nothing groundbreaking's coming to me right now. Perhaps we ought to organize some brainstorming session within the community in the future." he said, shrugging his shoulders. It was frustratinng, but nothing was coming. |

Rio nodded along. "Yeah...I think we might be able to get Samurakami to look into the elevator thing, but that's only one avenue. I know there was a group that said they were going to research things, an I know Mumbles has his project, but I don't know if it's still around, and I can barely understand that guy half the time. You seem like a smart guy, and maybe it was fortuitous you picked up the document." She looked at the screen, and threw up her hands as if unsure what she was typing, and then turned back to Akio. "Here. Why don't you go and grab that giant fucking librarian and some other people, see if you can find some areas of research. Come up with a to-do list, or something? I don't have the power to make you do anything, but we need someone to handle that sort of thing." |

"Yes. I'll get in touch with these folks as soon as I can... Just let me think up how I am going to word my request." Akio replied, the cogs of his brain already whirring - he was still a rookie when it came to the exploration of the Ruins, but if he made his case solid enough, then he'd quite certainly get people to follow him in his endeavours. "A to-do list... alright, let's resume. In orders of priority: one, we need to investigate this cargo elevator. Two, we need to find whatever other access to the outside there exists in the Ruins - if there is a cargo bay, we'll find the elevator not far away. Three, we have to find a way to analyze Shadow goo and experiment on it - I'd like to know the effects electrical currents might have on it. Finding competent people shouldn't be too hard." he said, tapping the fingers of his right hand with his left thumb - it was one of these habits he had when that brain of his did its work. "I may have these documents, but most of you vastly outstrip me when it comes to skill and savvy about the Ruins. I might act as a coordinator of sorts, but I am not cut out to be a field leader... this weakness to physical damage cripples me as well. Aside from Samurakami-san and Wells-san, who do you think is trustworthy enough to allow this to come to fruition ?" he asked. |

"Well, I'm not going to count Samurakami as trustworthy," Rio said. "She's just in a position to find the information. Hmm..." Thinking a moment, Rio scrolled through a list on the computer. "There are a few people who might be good to contact...Benkei Watanabe might be good, Toru Motou is pretty vocal in the documenet threads...uh...Kaede Susaki will curse and try to be in charge, but she's an old hand...Yatsu Kumori has the same package, but without the cursing and trying to be in charge and with a helping of narcolepsy...Seiji Fujiwara is good with numbers and pretty reliable...Takashi Kouno is another good one...hmm..." She thought for a moment. "Maybe just put out an open call and contact a few people. See what you can come up with." |

"Still, she might prove herself useful... I'll try to remember that." Akio replied, nodding his head and noting the different names in a part of his head where he knew they wouldn't disappear. An open call... yes, that was the best solution - he hadn't realy made a name for himself as of yet, and he needed to be humble about his discovery. "Anything else you need to tell me ?" he asked - the young man had to start organizing himself as soon as he could, which would require not getting back home too late. |

Rio thought for a moment. "Nothing that I can think of. If you all find anything out, be sure to let me know, though." With that, she waved goodbye and turned back to the computer, apparently intent on doing something she had open there. |
