[In the stairwell leading to the second floor there is a sleeping Pliskin. His M4 resting in his lap as he sleeps sitting up.]

[He hasn't found a room yet obviously and the stairs are as good a place as any.]

...Meryl...

[And he mumbles in his sleep.]

...Still asleep?

[He grabs his M9 and sneaks into the stairwell, because he knew where he was the whole time but it's always easier to talk on the codec than actual confrontation.]

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

[He stops just before waking Pliskin up... and instead aims his M9, just to see what will happen.]

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

[Have an M4 pointed at you and a very awake Pliskin]

I wouldn't do that if I were you.

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

[Caught!]

Hah... Did you think my M9 was pointed at you?

No... it was pointed at...

...

Gotta run!

[He turns around and takes off down the hallway.]

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

[He aims after him for a few moments then relaxes.]

...

[He closes his eyes and goes back to sleep.]

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

[After he's a safe distance away he leans up against the wall and makes to call Rose on codec, but forgets to change the frequency and accidentally ends up calling Pliskin again.]

[ 141.80 INCOMING CALL ]

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

[He's actually woken up this time.]

...Raiden.

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

[Wait, this isn't Rose...Damn it!]

...Hey Pliskin, I found some suspicious looking flashing lights on the 12th floor and thought I might ask you about them.

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

[Pliskin wants to kill you.]

... what about them?

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

[He can sense the murder in Pliskin's voice, so he speeds up his explanation.]

Well they're suspicious and flashing and I was wondering if I should spray them with coolant or something.

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

...

Did they trip your sensor?

[Grumbles and wonders why he's so compelled to be patient with him.]

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

Oh right, the sensor.

[He reaches into his inventory and equips the sensor.]

Hmm... nope.

But they're flashing green... now red... now green again- no wait, red...

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

...

Are the lights on a string?

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

[He peers at them closely.]

...A thin, suspicious green string.

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

Christmas lights, Raiden. They're Christmas lights.

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

Or maybe that's what the enemy wants us to think.

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

Right. Whatever.

Fine. Spray them with the coolant.

[brllnt-disguise.livejournal.com]

What.

[thatwhitedevil.livejournal.com]

I can't get to the lights, there's a guard patrolling the area and he keeps looking over at them.
