Dartz Wrote:Third: I deliberately avoided naming names, or saying exactly what Mackie discovered. It was a peculiarity I came across while researching the original justification. I'm cagey about outright saying what this is because it definitely wasn't anyone's intent to do it and I don't want to break the setting on people. The method is so obscure, because it's specifically listed as a failure. So, it's probably or the best to leave everything a little obscure for the time being. I just wanted to do the Serizawa thing about disclosure...
Either way, this is definitely something provisional. Especially the second half.
No objections here. I already opened that bottle; that genie is already out.

"Done it..." Anika started, before her mind caught up."...oh"
"And this isn't exactly the sort of thing you can ask about over open channels. Or closed ones."
She'd be happy to chat. Face-to-face, on Deimos. in her own apartment where nobody else can listen in. She won't help refine the process to make a bomb, but she will offer untested ideas for failsafes. (And Makoto can entertain Anika - maybe take her shopping, or backstage at a rehearsal.)
