So, last but not least, they wanted Rich to interview a few of the other "hostiles." Rich could do that, he'd done it plenty as an officer. Mind, he'd never participated in a full blown interrogation, but he'd certainly interviewed a few yahoos who he caught speeding, and a few young bucks he'd caught smoking rock in a public park. Honestly, the nerve of some people...
He found two candidates rather quickly, because it was so very easy to separate the Mall Rats from the rest of the factions thanks to Guy's brilliant plan. "Howdy." He started, taking out the pen and paper one of the bandits had given him. "Y'all mind if I ask ya a few questions?"

"Oh, hello there!" James turned, similarly equipped with pen and paper. Ohh. A man in uniform. He lifted one eyebrow daintly.
"Oh, I'd be more than happy to answer questions - especially if you can answer mine!" He smiled brightly. "Tell you what, why not make it a game? We can take turns!"

Athena gave the guy a once over, then a twice over, judged and found him wanting.
"Whatever," she said, "as long as I get to ask you one too."

"Fine by me." Rich shrugged, taking a shallow breath after the motion. God, you'd think he'd have learned by now to not move his upper body in any jerky ol' way, but old habits die hard. "Let's jest get straight to tha point. Y'all think we're gonna be rescued?"

"Oh, wow!" James commented, frowning. "That's very dark. I think that maybe waiting to be rescued is the wrong approach. Maybe we need to, like," he paused, tapping the pen to his cheek thoughtfully and leaving a smudge, "rescue ourselves."
He smiled brightly.
"As for our faction, well. I'm a University student, and I like to try and keep things FUN and CREATIVE!" He waved his hands, clipboard and all, enthusiastically.

Well. Alright then. Rich wrote her response down in his notepad, nihilism and all. Then he put a DANGER sign next to her response.
"As for bein' useful to our faction, I think I can offer protection and aid in whatever capacity it may be needed - or at least try my damn best."
Rich turned his head to James, looking at him with a quirked brow. "Awirght, then. Rescue ourselves. That's inspirin'." Rich jotted that phrase down, hiding a snort. As if they could do anything.

"Now, my turn right?" James beamed at them, but radiated most particularly at ruggedly bearded guy.
"Tell me about your family."

Rich's warmness dropped a few degrees, venturing from sunny Spring with a light breeze to early Autumn with cloud cover. "Family's from Kentucky, down in the States. Moved up here 'cos the missus had a career opportunity. Not much else to say."

James scribbled down the answers thus far, drawing a small frowny face next to the word 'wife'.
"Thanks so much for your time! It was nice getting to meet new people!"

Athena determinedly did not make eye contact with either of them as they talked about family.
To James, she asked:
"What is more important to you - knowledge or physical power. Why."

"Oh ho!" He chuckled. "Shucks, that's easy! Knowledge, because knowledge IS power! Did you know, for example, that alka seltzer and soda make a kind of rudimentary bomb?! It's mostly just sticky of course, but it's loads of fun!"
He pointed her pen at her. "What about you? What's your - " he referenced his sheet - "Secret to surviving?"

James just smiled brightly, like some sort of zillion watt lightbulb, while carefully writing not having fun on his sheet.
"I guess that's a wrap!"
