Now what makes you think getting a new handler is as simple/beneficial for you guys? And why are you so adverse to Alexander?
I dunno. I did say that it was vague. As for things against Alexander....

Absolutely everything he has done since we met him. Seriously, when was he not being an asshole?

He's a spy. You're a spy. Now tell me, what's the best way to mentor someone into being a force to be reckoned with. Surely the one who coddles and gives medals for every small achievement is bound to yield results, right?

I'll give you a little bit of info. He's not an asshole. An asshole wouldn't feel bad about holding you hostage and then give you a sandwich. He obviously had to punish you for the idiotic request, but it was mostly a facade. Tell me, what do you truly know about Alexander and his motives, hmm?

And He's not an asshole when you aren't doing something stupid. Tell me, was everything he did justified? Not necessarily, but he had his reasons. You're seeing everything as you've experienced it, but failing to take into consideration the ulterior motives, and everything that you're not seeing.

Stop being reasonable! I am trying to be a petulant child here.:p
 
Huh. Hmm. I think that we should not run away from the CIA as a whole. That would be troublesome and we can just be easily disposed of when that happens (we can struggle a little bit and prolong the chase but I'd rather be that we are good at being a spy first before that happens). Also, while I think that it's a good idea that we continue our job, it might have been dealt with or Alexander did spy things to make it happen (or maybe not). Hell, maybe it's a different day now. Also, lol, I forgot that there were no doors in the Zen Garden. I should double-check a lot of things before making write-ins. I think it would be better to wait for Alexander and such before we get lost.

[X] Wait for Alexander.

I do wonder what would happen if James turns up the winner in their scuffle. Should we go with him instead?
 
[X] Do the mission you were given.

I would like to get the mission done, or go back to the fight. Where would you wait for Alexander, for how long and how safe would it be?
 
Not sure if we can even still complete our job.
Wanna hear from Alexander to see if its still on the table or if something changed.
 
I am the redheaded stepchild, aren't I?:p

Also, you won't answer any of them, will you?

Not at the moment, though it is nearing FAQ time, so I might sometime soon. If you hadn't noticed, I tend to do that every five pages.

Edit: And no, more like the child I pick on for practically no reason, for my own amusement.

This is kind of off-topic but what does it mean to be the redheaded child and why red?
 

As to explain why the redheaded part is included, is due in part to a saying from the 1830's & 40's when Irish emigrants began arriving in America. The newly arrived Irish were somewhere below free blacks on the social scale at the time, and lived in segregated communities. Then, like now, young men were having sexual relations with young women before marriage. Sometimes the men were Irish and the girls were not. This resulted in many out of wedlock children with that red Irish hair. When these young women did finally marry, usually to a young man not of Irish descent, the new husband was not particularly patient or sympathetic to the red haired step child and treated them harshly.

So there~
 
FAQ Time! (A.K.A a timekiller until you guys decide on a vote.)
(Note that in order for it to be considered a "frequently asked questions" it only needs to be asked once.)

Maybe we should ask the neighbors nearby for use of their phone? Maybe we could call security?

Maybe that would have been wise. It might also have been wise to leave and let him sort out his own problems. Or get another hotdog. Pretty much everything but what you did would have been wiser.

Also, at what point do we resume, GM?

We'll continue after this? This implies that you would want to continue after you died/failed...?

When are we not pressured?

Well, technically speaking, we're always being pressures, all the time. The Earths atmosphere, which is where the least amount of pressure is on earth. However, when you see someone passing out while going higher and higher, it's not an increase in pressure that causes this, but a decrease and the bodies less than gradual depressurization in relation to the oxygen content in the blood stream.

The Earth is constantly under the pressure of it's own gravity, so pressure on the earths surface itself is actually considered pretty dense. However, the place you'll find the most pressure is within the depths of the ocean, where you would not only be dealing with the pressure of the earths atmosphere and gravity, but also the pressure from a million tons of water above you.

So, to shorten this convoluted explanation, you won't be pressured when you go to space.

No options for how to interrogate someone?

I'll give you a hint: It involves a feather duster and bubbles.

We really don't know about finger traps? What American doesn't?:confused:

The kind that has never heard of feather traps are normally the kind that never had bad friends.

No good options. I really hope this isn't one of those really stupid action movie things where two character fight each other with lethal weapons for fun/to make sure they are still sharp. Because real spies don't do that. Real spies avoid combat, and only enter If necessary. This pretty much goes against all CIA doctrine, unless Alex is really trying to kill James.

Well, I would say that is correct, except it's not. I'll ask you, what's the absolute best way to see if someones still as sharp as when you knew them prior? What's the best way to keep your skills sharp? To always use them. Normally a spy will avoid combat unless necessary, but Alexander is everything except for a typical spy, and James plain isn't a spy.

As for the CIA Doctrine, it doesn't apply to you. You are a spook. You're not a part of the CIA, at least not officially. If ever confronted about it, CIA authority will deny you work for them. There is no doctrine that applies to you.

Should we go with him instead?

Yes. James might even buy you ice cream~

Where would you wait for Alexander, for how long and how safe would it be?

Probably somewhere vewy vewy quiet~

I am the redheaded stepchild, aren't I?:p

Also, you won't answer any of them, will you?

No, you're my my blonde yodeler, get it right Nessie.

And no, obviously I'm not going to answer these questions, that's preposterous! *obvious sarcasm is obvious*
 
So, it's been a while, but I realized I had a quest to get back to. I apologize, I was busy ignoring this quest for my other quest. Now, however, I think I can do much better!

So, I don't really have much to proceed with the votes, and vote tally is being a bich for these particular pages. I'd much rather not roll for a vote, but I think it's high time to actually include something exciting and actually get to the mission already, we've done enough dawdling for one quest :p

So my question is should I simply roll for the next update, or do you all have some semblance of a plan?
