Sure. [ A brief nod. ] It'd probably help the two agencies if we had more... middle ground. Someone who knew about one side and could know a little on the other.
I'm pretty sure there's always going to be something to be studied, Saga. One AWE is never the end of them. [ Jesse pauses, glancing to the side. Polaris shimmers and she nods. ] I was part of one as a kid. It came back eighteen years later in a different way. There's always more.
[ « "Perhaps" is better than nothing for now, I guess. » ]
Then the one common factor is if both of us can trust each other over Alan Wake. What do you think?
Yeah. [ Saga nods in return without hesitation, knowing that a partnership with the FBC might raise a few eyebrows with her colleagues and the higher-ups, but she's certain that it will only be beneficial for all of them in the long run. ] I'll share what I can, and go from there.
[ She chuckles and then smiles. ] If there is, I'm all over it. The more I can learn about these AWEs and what goes on in and around them, the better. I- Well, I don't see a point in not admitting how curious I am. But don't get me wrong, I won't be running headlong into danger. [ Maybe. It depends on what's going on and how dangerous it is. If I can get answers... Well, I know I have to be careful. ]
Wait, you were? And it came back eighteen years later? Wow. [ So maybe she's not at the center of events, because it sounds like these events just happen, but she's got a pretty strong connection, from what it sounds like. I don't want to pry, but that's not just a coincidence. ]
Yes, I agree. That seems to be a good starting point for both of us. So, what now? What do you need me to do?
[ It's going to be an adjustment, but I've worked alongside other partners before. I can learn to work with her. ]
