Jessie reflexively winces at the sudden grasp, but chooses not to fight the encasement.  "I was quite all right, Whiplash.  But thank you."  She pauses, apparently not about to let a near-death experience get in the way of her thought processes.  "Is the weapon I contrived for you still working well?"  She doubts Frenzy cares very much if anyone hears about how she helped him rob banks, but Whiplash's blades are a complex device and nobody needs to hear the details.  "I've had 347 ideas for new alloys to incorporate into the design.  I just wish I knew more about the resources we'll have access to after we collect Mindjack."
