<em><strong>Cedric Davis</strong></em><br/><br/>Cedric leaned over to slowly pat amber on the back<em>“I know you’ll do fine. Why else would I have brought you on?”</em>. He was going to say something else before Dali sent over the picture of Maria, and then he seemed to conveniently forget. Sounding as stern as possible, he mentioned to Dali<em>”Well, it does seem that she keeps her hands full while not at work. Maybe there’s something we can do on that end?”</em>Standing up again, he moved a little closer to the camera before turning to the crew on his side<em>”Anyone else with questions regarding the intel we have on the victim will have to wait for now. We need Aleksei to tell us just how we’re going to perform this job on the chemical side. Think you’re up for that Aleksei?”</em><br/><br/><em><strong>Aleksei Romanov</strong></em><br/><br/>Aleksei cleared his throat and awkwardly moved half his face into the camera<em>Ahhhh, yes Cedric…I can tell you what I’ve been thinking of for this situation, and you can let me know your opinion of it.”</em>. He lugged his briefcase, containing the sleep synch, closer to the camera. He made sure that he was repositioned and closer to Dali before holding up a vial and continuing.<em>”I had helped brainstorm this idea with another Chemist, who’s currently working on another project. He is significantly better than me, but since I helped him develop the idea, I should be able to carry it through.”</em>His confidence in himself could wane at times, but his confidence in his materials conquered all as he slipped a syringe into the vial. Pulling ever so slowly, he spoke as if he was giving a dissertation in front of a professor<br/><br/><em>“What I have in my hand is made of a bio-chemical compound with too long of a name for you all to worry about. What it does is cause absolute isolation while you all are under. Sound and pain, all will be distant and unfeeling while this drug takes effect. The special thing about it, is that it still allows stimulus to your inner-eardrum. Have you ever had the feeling you were falling while asleep, and then suddenly wake up? This is exactly what occurs with this drug. I would be happy to show you all a test of the product, if Dali wouldn’t mind</em>He grins, a little embarrassed because he knew he wanted to show the drug at work, but thought he’d do it while everyone was on site.  Right now, Dali would be is only test subject<br/><br/>After a small pause, he adds helpfully<em>“Though Dali’s assistance isn’t necessary right now…I’d be happy to give the group a demonstration of the materials when you all arrive.”</em>Though his Russian accent came through in his speech, his word structure is evidence alone of his education. He only thought of it when he had to speak in front of groups, which are natural times for feeling overly self-conscious. The syringe was still pointed at Dali, and he slowly moved it away from her, lest she feel he was going to poke her whether she wanted it or not.<em>”In any case, the kick as we call it, seems to be the best way to get through a possibly interesting time in Israel, yes? I wasn’t able to look up this holiday, but we can look forward to an uninterrupted dive when everything is in order”</em><br/><br/><em>”The only problem is, if you have to go through multiple levels, then you’ll need me in on at least the first part of it. That means we’ll need someone trustworthy to hold the reins while we’re running around in her head. I wouldn’t know who to get for that. Other than that, we’ll be taken care of on the chemical side, Cedric.”</em>Aleksei didn’t give time for a Q&A as he darted back off camera. He hated speaking to groups…<br/>
