[ Gaius is-- well, he looks much the same as before, on the snappier side of his personal wardrobe in pinstripe and open collar shirts, but unlike those who might have been mercilessly shoved into the world of Sanitarium Island, he gets a backdrop of a well-to-do looking office, all wooden paneling, brass pieces, a painting on the wall. ]

This wonderful conspiracy--

[ There's the column of smoke rising from the cigarette in his ashtray, the former of which he picks up. ]

We've not seen an organised movement for evasion quite to this magnitude. But the law is the law. Still, if anyone would like to appeal to me your story, I can pass it along to my superiors.

Who knows? Perhaps it would work this time.

Before he's spotted Gaius tailing him.

The story seems fairly simple. The information you've got is wrong, none of us have had surgery, and I'm guessing that a fairly simple medical examination could prove that.

Honestly, if none of you have passed it along to your superiors yet, then I've got some concerns for you professionalism.

[The feed is full of static, but there is a clear moment where Sarah's profile can be seen. Her eyes flick across Gaius's surroundings and she frowns. That's not familiar and she's pretty sure Gaius is wearing a Gaius suit -- him but not him, like when they'd both been pirates. Those weren't wodks he would have spoken.]

The story.

[Sarah Connor is a week past due on a new heart--according to the records.]

The story is that people aren't what the system says they are. People are more than blips on a mhachine.

Gaius?

Oh, for frak's sake.

The Mexica thought that both humanity and gods owed an infinite blood debt. Because the world was created and saved by the shedding of blood, because blood kept the sun in the sky. For this reason, they killed. They cut out hearts, which contained teyolia - the soul, I suppose you would call it. It was a debt that could never be fully paid. More would always need to die.

Do you know what happened to them?
