You get the idea. That's one way we do it.

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

So you... make examples? Be a scary figurehead?

<Snipped quote by Source>

Make sure that everyone knows that what we want protected, is protected in every way they can imagine and then some. People aren't going to try anything if they don't believe they'll get far enough for it to matter.

*Raises my eyebrows*
I had been referring to the navis, but now you have my attention.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

I thought you were talking about the cryptic nature of the elements. No way you could be asked to learn everything relevant in an instant that we're dealing with.

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

I guess I just don’t know what that looks like.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*Waves my hand*
No, I’ve more than come to terms with the limitations of these circumstances.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Well, I did some looking, and some asking around, and your limitations are no more.

<Snipped quote by Source>

A lot of people guarding a place. Insane cyber warfare capabilities. Big names of people everyone knows means business openly advertised as overseeing whatever that is. Not to toot my own horn, but if nearly anyone in the IA reads a sign that says a location is under the watchful eye of Max Cerberus at all times, they don't test it.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Hm? In what sense?

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Well, you've already crossed a line. It's not like you're in any deeper water by going further past it, you know?

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

But you can’t be in all of those places at once, right?

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

The more information I acquire, the less feasible a complete wipe of said information will be, as you just witnessed.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Right, but there's no need for either of us to go out of our way to make sure you learn nothing. And sharing needed info will make working together easier.

<Snipped quote by Source>

No, no. But I can be in any one of them at any time, and that's what matters.

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Ohhhhhhh. What do you do if you catch someone?

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

What are you suggesting, then?

<Snipped quote by Ignacious>

*Shrugs*
Sure, why not.

<Snipped quote by Ignacious>

Wait, you have more places like this with other people!?

<Snipped quote by Source>

What any authority would do. Arrest them.

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

<Snipped quote by Source>

Very well!
*the whole Tavern warps and for a split second you see another me at one end of the bar counter that dissipates and the whole room is filled with lively and rowdy beings*
