How did we meet? Hm...how best to put this...

[ She puts her thinking face on for the moment. ]

...The two of us used to be coworkers!

[youngtimer]

Oh - so were you alchemists together, then? With Saint-G? [he catches himself, and decides not to assume completely] Or was it ... before all of that?

[alchefist]

No, it was after. And I wouldn't say we were alchemist's together, just that she worked for the Illuminati.

[ Before she took the Chiffauges and ran, basically. ]

[youngtimer]

Ahaaa.

[he can read between the lines here, or at least he thinks he can]

So I'm guessing you weren't exactly best friends. Handler and I were like that when we first arrived, too.

[alchefist]

Heh. Well, that's what happens when you take the Illuminati's funds and run, I suppose!

But we're super duper best roommates now, I assure you!

[youngtimer]

Ha, holy shit. See, that was me and the Commission, but I just blew up all their equipment and ran, I didn't steal anything.

Funny how this place makes you put aside all that kind of shit fast, isn't it?

[alchefist]

Well, I never really had anything against her. Our dear director may have, but for me it was all just something she did to the organization, you know?

[youngtimer]

That's pretty big-picture of you. I don't think I could have thought like that about things, before I got here. I was that one guy who's pissed off at everyone for some reason or another, even if I didn't always act like it.

[alchefist]

Eh, not really big picture. My loyalties were always to Saint-Germain, you know? What was really big picture was using her in our plans~!

[youngtimer]

That doesn't surprise me: the loyalty bit, I mean. ... But now you've got me curious about this plan... But am I keeping you from anything?

[he glances around the casino to see if anyone's waiting at a table for her to run a game]

[alchefist]

Oh, you're not keeping me! It's a rather slow day! Anyhow, I'm sure Saint-Germain could tell you far better than I, but...

...well, frankly, what we wanted to attain was the power of the gods. We used her research into the world's leylines, which we needed to tap into in order to attain it.

[youngtimer]

Those things are real where you are, huh? I guess that's not too surprising. What was it that let her use them when you and Saint-G couldn't? You both seem pretty powerful to me.

[alchefist]

Oh, Carol never gained the divine power. She used the leylines to try and "dissect the world", as she put it.
