<Brett> [Khalil hears voices beyond the door.  They echo a bit, 
  so it must be a pretty large room.  The first one he doesn't 
  recognize.  "... because he forced us to use the Artemis system 
  on Claudia.  I want revenge."]
<Brett> [Mind roll for the second: "I don't care, Helga.  
  Kidnapping him was stupid.  Bringing him here was stupider.  
  He's got allies, you know.  They're going to be coming for us."]
<Brett> ["Fine, let them come.  I haven't been in a good skirmish 
  in a long time.  I'd welcome it."]
<Brett> ["You're an idiot."]
<Brett> ["And you're a failure.  Oh yes, I've read the reports.  
  We're closing this branch down thanks to your bumbling."]
<Griff_Khalil> (Nope on the mind roll)
<Brett> ["Then why did they ask me to return to headquarters? Why 
  leave you in charge of a gutted branch, Helga?"]
<Brett> ["Hmph.  Someone's got to run it."]
<Brett> [They get quieter, too quiet to hear so I don't have to 
  keep making crap up.]
