ACTIVATING SKULLBABY

"Actually, I think we can get Skullbaby started without taking the time to make a visit," you say. "Hand me the laptop."

You ping Skullbaby:

You on?
Watcha doing

Skullbaby fires back:

Gibbing geeks

You:

Stop that.
Got work for you

 

Skullbaby:

Rats

You:

Subject is FROGS. Rana viridiana. They're dying off in Slow Water Park. Reasons could be habitat destruction, pollution,
invasive species, predators.

Pierce's office


 

 

 

Skullbaby:

Cost ya the
usual amount.
Ready by noon

You show this to Carolyn. "What is the usual amount?" she asks. You tell her. Her face goes red. "That much?"

"Want me to tell Skullbaby to forget it?" you ask.

She sighs. You tap in:

You got it.
See you later

"We'll visit Skullbaby later," you say. "Let's pick someone else for now."
