Good Cause Simulator: sensitIV/avante en garde (sunday)

[ You’re in a sleek room full of all kinds of sci-fi dials and knobs. You feel like you’ve been here a long time with these people around you, and that you have a lot longer to go before this is all over.

You can hear the distant sounds of the station creaking due to shockwaves from the fighting outside. What is going on in this galaxy? Well, it’s not very important to you. What’s important is surviving.

You have a job to do. ]

There's a chance, anyway. If we get caught it'll go very poorly.

But if it goes well, we'll have money from the Others and do pretty big damage.

I'm fine with that risk, but we should make sure the others are.

I wonder... If we can invent something that takes care of the rodents and the bugs by rendering them edible, we can sell faulty versions to the others.

I think killing them and cooking them already makes them edible, technically.

One of the members of SensitIV suggested that we procure chickens and cats. Both would eat the pests, and chickens would help provide eggs and additional food to us, without having to resort to eating rodents.

That sounds like putting points into sustainability instead of prosperity and readiness... I dunno. Can we really afford to pivot into raising animals instead of honing our gear?

[ Hah... ]

If it isn't realistic, we can skip it. I am just concerned about the disease that rodents might possess. They were responsible for the Black Plague, after all.

But someone else suggested quarantining them, and I suppose if we do that... it might be okay.

[ Ugh... ]

Yeah. We'll definitely have to make sure it's safe to eat them...

Maybe that laser grid idea can corral them too. If we focus on perfecting one invention, we can make it more stable. Reliable.

If that is the only option right now, I am willing to go along with it.

At the very least, perfecting the weapon is to our advantage.

[ hum ]

Uhm, I've been listening in . . . I'm not much help when it comes to this sort of thing—[ because he does not care to contribute to War(tm) ]—but I think it's not a bad idea. It might be good to tell our side what we're doing in secret, or otherwise create a separate identity for selling to the other side?

The Others might not trust an engineering company that just popped outta nowhere. I think we gotta leverage our rep to get them to trust what we're selling.

But yeah, letting our guys know about the plan in secret a good idea. We don't want to actually get outcast for treason.

What about reaching out to a war profiteering company that's already selling to them?

Oooh, true. We can just be part of the supply chain.
