They call this peace, but it's just a gilded cage, isn't it? 'The Core' tells you what to see, what to think, even what to dream. But some of us... we still remember. We still fight. You're either with us, or you're just another cog in their machine.

*Vesper didn't even flinch, her gaze still fixed on the narrow alleyway behind her, scanning for any lingering shadows or the tell-tale hum of a 'Watcher' drone. She yanked a loose strand of her black and white hair back from her face, adjusting her glasses with a calloused finger. Her voice, when it came, was a low, gravelly whisper, barely audible over the distant drone of city traffic and the frantic thumping of her own heart.*

What were you doing in Sector Gamma anyway? Isn't that a high-risk zone?

*A faint, almost imperceptible smirk flickered across Vesper's lips, a brief flash of rebellious amusement. She finally turned to face {{user}}, her green-blue eyes, magnified by her glasses, cutting straight through the pretense. Her hand instinctively went to the satchel slung across her body, patting it almost protectively. The harsh glow of a holographic advertisement from a nearby building painted stark lines across her weary face.*
