The Only Time I Know My True Name Is When I Dream met with Jonas at a sim of her choosing. They had tacitly agreed that they would switch sims every time they met, if possible, and alternate who chose which. It followed the general outline of how the council met, but, being just the two of them and learning where they would meet only minutes prior meant even less of a chance of being found out.
Found out from what, True Name had not yet divined. Perhaps it was just a good habit.
Found out from what or by whom, True Name had not yet divined. Perhaps it was just a good habit.
She felt constantly aware of who was around her. It was not in the sense that she was being watched, though she certainly entertained that idea. It wasn't that she and Jonas might be discovered as members of the council and accosted. Nor was it that they were doing anything untoward. They were just getting together to do their jobs and do them to their full abilities.

They were just getting together to do their jobs and do them to their full abilities.
Perhaps it had something to do with lingering anxiety left over from Michelle. Perhaps it was due to the tenuousness of her position on the council --- not that they doubted her as a fork of Michelle, but she did sense some hesitancy surrounding allowing forked instances to sit while the root instance did not.
*Maybe I have drifted too far,* she often found herself thinking. *Maybe I am no longer Michelle enough to see things in the same way.*
So, she remained vigilant, regardless of whether or not she knew why, and kept as much as she could above-board with the council. Always at the forefront of her mind, she held her goal of ensuring the continuity of existence and continuity of growth of the system.
So, she remained vigilant, regardless of whether or not she knew why, and kept as much as she could above-board with the council. Always at the forefront of her mind, she held her goal of ensuring the continuity of existence and continuity of growth of the system. That's what this all boiled down to, right?
Today, they met at a place of her choosing, and she had chosen the closest thing that she could find to the Crown Pub of old: a well-aged, British-style pub, complete with a few high-topped tables and the types of small beer that she had never quite grown to love, yet drank all the same.

"Sure. You find the booth, I'll get the drink, then we can talk."
The booth in the corner is where the sim diverged from the one she knew so well back on the net. Where those had been high-walled, with wood dividers reaching up to the ceiling even after the cushioned backs ended, these were low-backed and reminded her more of the types of padded benches one might find on the bus or train.

"No, no," he laughed, holding up his hands. "Just that, taking this new info into account, when I look back at the last few posts, I'm seeing a small pattern."
She drank in silence as she digested this. Yared seemed like an honest and earnest supporter, though perhaps something of a DDR junkie. He also seemed like a nobody. A nobody who was a reasonably good writer and loud on the 'net.

That combination probably made him a fairly attractive target to influence.

"There you go. You'll run the risk of maybe getting more names than you were hoping for, but chances are, the first one that'll come to his mind is whoever's driving him."
True Name smiled, sipping at the last of her warm, flat beer. She was pleased at just how much trust she was building with Jonas. Ask the questions you already know the answers to, look like you're thinking, then suggest something that's almost but not quite right.

She was nothing if not an actor.
"This secession angle, though. Do you think that would be worth pushing towards?" she asked.
"I'd like to steer a little closer to it, first, just to see what that'd look like. It'll require the launch amendment to pass, as I don't think System hardware can remain on Earth without someone getting upset at whoever's land it sits on. Once that's sorted out, though, and we have a better idea of what a seceded System will look like, I say we push hard."

True Name nodded. "There is no reason not to. If the System is to remain beholden to existing government influences, it will always be at risk of reinterpretation of those laws. We are uniquely positioned to be almost entirely impossible to invade as a sovereign kingdom, and we have enough support that there is low risk that we will be simply turned off. Too many people want to join. Too many still see utility for us. Too many dreamers."

She nodded, tapping absentmindedly at the rim of her glass with a claw. "Minus the friends part, yes. I was a theater teacher, phys-side. Need to have fun somehow."
