i have one of the id blocking helmets think if i handed it over, you could dig into it and figure out what makes it tick and install thst tech into something with a different signature?
I hope you understand that I have no idea how you found that.
[ that ol staple: being intentionally obtuse. gaby asked for them back, so he returned his. he can understand why others didn't, and he'd still very much like to get a look at them in depth, especially with all this talk of vigilantism. ]
I've been toying with cosmetic changes to one, but altering the signature will require extensive analysis and redesigns, as you say. Don't want people to chip the paint and find MS underneath. Reckon it's doable, especially with a second to work with.
[ a beat. ]
What's the aim here?
[ Fitz has said it before: He works with others, not for them. ]
of course not and if it comes up, i'm not gonna point fingers your way
( if fitz offers a hand instead of fucking him over, jason definitely isn't going to be the one who outs him for helping. )
there's shit i want to get into without it leading back to sources who aren't me and while i can probably figure it out myself if i spend enough time dicking around with it, i figured you had a bit more experience tampering with this era's toys
( given his gang alliance. the bits and pieces of other data he's been able to pick up about fitz. )
hafid isn't quiet about his line of work and mine isn't far off little difficult to figure out where i want to stick my nose in when i can't turn a goddamn corner without making sure there aren't cameras not gonna hurt anyone ( that doesn't deserve it. ) or anything idiotic like that
[ for covering his ass, and explaining the intent behind the mask. having someone unaffiliated and undetectable could be of use in future, too. for everyone, morningstar included. spies know when to outsource work. ]
I trust you not to do that, anyway, you know.
[ he's never thought of jason as stupid, even at his most hotheaded (there's intent there, behind the steam), and his conduct in the raids evidenced his priorities. ]
Drop it off between 19.00 and 21.00. Might not be in otherwise.
[ he drops a GPS pin, though he reckons Jason already knows where the SHIELD flat is, given how much traffic it gets. ]
If you're amenable, there's something I'd like you to look into as well.
( considering how often he stalks dick around--jason definitely knows the place. doesn't comment on it though. )
can do
( he'll trust fitz not to take off with it and claim it as his own new toy, too. jason can live without his new toy, wouldn't use it when it's traceable back to morningstar, but. )
[ there it is again: the thrill of another strategic move on the board. he desperately wants to cross-reference that sample with the others on file, given its apparent effects. ]
Have I mentioned that you're brilliant?
[ and just so they're even on all things, favours and intelligence. ]
As a note, I've shifted to Pulsar in the last month.
[ better they know what to contact each other for, if anything relevant arises. ]
( an interesting move but not one that jason feels the need to comment on. pulsar's loki's company, too. fuck if he knows what he does in there but considering loki's recent move up the cooperate ladder, he's doing something right. fitz's skills lie in a different area entirely, he's sure they're working in different sectors. and if they get not only some of the underground under control but also a huge company--well. )
you haven't, but i am keep that in mind when looking through some of the designs i'll drop off with the helmet
[ only teasin'. a bright helmet is nothing on captain fucking america, as far as bold aesthetics go. ]
And if anyone else is getting antsy about making a difference and going public, feel free to say there's something in the works that could let us have our cake and eat it, too.
[ sniper's idea, bolstered by jason's request, and now — a bolder move comes to mind, not without risk, but he reckons he can swing it. ]

a favor for a favor isn't a bad deal
what is it?

[ hearkening back to their first conversation. ]
A sample for analysis will do for now, but I may have a long-term interest in tracking the supplier.
no subject
supplier of most performance enhancers
a sample is easy
