[ Sixteen. Eighteen. He's been there for several years? What the hell that's so... it's inhumane, disgusting. The vampire's eyes narrow at her phone and she finds her thumb up towards her lips and she's nearly bitten down on a nail before she realizes what she's doing.

... God. ]

I'm not sure if that makes it reassuring or all the more unfortunate. I suppose there's no distilling tragedy.

[manufactured]

It happened at a time in our lives when we both knew tragedy of some sort was likely unavoidable. About twenty years after we started working together. I chose to leave the corporation we were both working for at the time and offered to bring him with me; he decided to stay despite knowing that the lot of them would eventually want him dead - and even if they didn't, there were plenty of other people who would. He was aware of the potential outcome and that there would be nothing I could do to avert it once I left - he would effectively be on his own - but he chose not to come with me.

I can't say that I'm surprised; from what I remember, he was always somewhat like that.

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . Wait there are terrorist corporations?

Wait you can leave them?

But that's less material then, ]

Oh. I'm truly sorry to hear that, Albert. That must've been hard for that you of the past, and jarring for you now.

[manufactured]

[well, in fairness.

there was a reason birkin wanted to make sure wesker could come back from the dead.]

In a turn of events that probably isn't all that surprising given that I was a failure of an empathetic human being back then, I wasn't particularly troubled by it back then. I think I was more annoyed with him for it than anything, but it was his decision in the end.

[matchbreaker]

[ Mmm ]

Yes, that it was.

... There are terrorist corporations? Or have I misunderstood what you did?

[manufactured]

Legally speaking, it was a pharmaceutical corporation that specialized in cures and vaccines and had a large number of subsidiaries. They also happened to specialize in creating bioweapons and accumulating deadly viruses for the sake of...I don't fully know. Eugenics, I suppose, was a large part of it.

So technically, yes.

[matchbreaker]

... So like did governments buy these bio-weapons or did they use them theirselves or...?

What happened to the Geneva Conventions?

[manufactured]

I actually have no idea on either count, but given that the entire place was already several hundred massive OSHA violations, I can't see them being too concerned about things like human rights.

[matchbreaker]

So we're talking shadow corporations or some sort of insane libertarian dystopia?

[manufactured]

I'd think so. Presumably?

[matchbreaker]

Honestly, I'm probably thinking about it too rationally.

... And I guess assuming it was in the US maybe it was in Venezuela or Qatar or something

[manufactured]

The place I started out in was definitely in the US, though there was at least one location they owned in Europe and another in Africa. Though everything that happened while I was in Africa was due to another corporation that I was working for, called Tricell.

Excella owned that one.

[matchbreaker]

Huh . . .

Man, it's funny how global that is. The memories I've got other than the obvious are all centered on pretty much one city.

[manufactured]

In fairness, I was trying to be a proper bioterrorist and infect more than just myself.

[wesker no]

1/3

[matchbreaker]

[ L...augh??? ]

[matchbreaker]

You got me there.

[manufactured]

It's good of you to listen to all of this, you know. Again, there is some catharsis in it; it's appreciated.

[matchbreaker]

Oh no, of course! Even if we wanted to put it like things even out, you've had to hear so many of my insecure ramblings.

[manufactured]

I suppose. But I like knowing that you can come to me with those sorts of things.

[matchbreaker]

There's few others I would, Albert.

[manufactured]

Consider me flattered as well, then.

[matchbreaker]

In any case, thank you for telling me about these Plagas.

[manufactured]

At this rate we're going to have to make some sort of chart. I remember knowing about yet another virus that an insane scientist developed and then infected herself with...that I wanted a sample of for presumably the same reason I wasn't satisfied with the twelve other things I wanted samples of.

...I hate how I have to clarify that that's an exaggeration, I haven't recalled twelve of them, but here we are.

[matchbreaker]

Honestly, a chart with them, the immediate effects, symptoms, and if you know of any countermeasures for them might help in the long term.
