"Feral Labs? Oh, no." Dai bit her lip. "They're nice people. They've donates millions to charities and they're working on stem cell research. Experimental drugs that can cure people... Something to do with animal testing, I think. My father's done some consultancy for them and they were agreeable. The FDA's just kind of skittish... There are too many animal rights activists around that oppose Feral already. It would mean bad publicity for them, and there's the bad Bush publicity already. Approving of Feral would be too much of a risk for them, life-saving or no." Dai usually didn't approve of animal testing, but what Feral Labs was doing... It could cure people like her. It could cure other animals in need. The sacrifice was worth the cost.
"But I've heard of these dissapearances... I don't think it's Feral Labs, though. There's simply not enough evidence. It's probably a rival company that's spreading these rumors. It's happened a lot before. They're waiting until Feral's weak so they can buy them up. The company's got a lot of influence, dissapearances or not. They've donated too much." Dai decided not to tell them about the rehab offer she'd gotten only a few weeks before. "But I'm sorry for your sister, maybe she'd..." She bit down harder on her lip, trying to think of a good defense. "Maybe she'd gotten... Lost or something. I don't know. But I'm sure there was a lot of money involved. She sounds like the kind of girl that cared a lot for er brother." She smiled half-heartedly and patted Gallen's hand. "I'm sure that she'd safe and well somewhere."

"Maybe all the donations and incredible good things they are doing for your department is making up for something... something sinister. It's a strange feeling that I have about them that makes me less than welcoming of their practices... I don't know why." Jessica said, surprised that she would believe in something so odd. After all, she hardly even knew the people. But something just didn't feel right...
Shrugging, she went back to her quiet state, saying all she felt she needed to. She stared down at her hands, crossing and uncrossing them in thought.

"Hey, I ain't saying yay or nay here, just there are some strange rumors going on about them. And that... serum stuff. That drug that's getting popular, y'know?" Howie shrugged and ruffled his hair, careful to avoid his new stitches. He gazed blankly at the far wall, chewing on his lip and obviously lost in thought for a moment.
Then he stood up, set the empty coffee mug down, and brushed himself off. "Well, I'd better get going. Got enough cash stowed away to cover my a** out of this joint, but I'd better not stick around." He glanced around the studio, waved a little bit, and headed for the door that looked most like it might lead to an exit.

Howie glanced back over his shoulder in time to catch Jess's look. "Aw, no! Don't give me that look girl, you don't want me to hang around. Ain't good for ya." He shifted uncomfortabley. He liked Jess and owed her quite a lot...
And he could repay her by getting the hell away from this city and making sure he didn't mix her up in any shadey business. That was that.
He shrugged and glanced over at Gallen. "Eh, life's a b***h that way, get used to all us ungratefuls," He raised an eyebrow at the query. "What's it to ya? Usually I just pick some place I haven't been before and hop the next train out. Harder for people to find me that way." There was a bit of challenge in his voice.
Hm, he was pretty friendly with Jess there. Nothing wrong with that, if she didn't mind. The guy was probably better for her than he was, after all.

"Home?" Howie grinned and rolled his eyes. "Anywhere people haven't figured out that they secretly want to kill me yet." He met Gallen's gaze squarely, determined that he wouldn't be the one to back down first. "Where nobody's giving me orders or telling me what I do is wrong." He shoved some hair out of his eyes irritabley. "I know it's wrong - I'm a punk, not an idiot. And no pity, neither."
It was a straightforward answer, and believeable enough. But it wasn't the whole truth. There was no way he'd go spilling his guts to some people he'd barely met, despite the fact that he was taking off for their sake.
Jess's comment made his smile falter for a second. "Friendship? Babes, you've barely known me for a night. Ask anyone and they'll tell you I'm a ******** jackass, you wouldn't actually want me hanging around." His grin returned, now a little condescending and cocksure, but forced.

"That doesn't matter. You may be a little dumb and certainly annoying and stubborn at times, but don't be too hard on yourself. I know you're a kind man at heart, and I know I would want to help you out in any way possible. I care for you; you are my friend," she told him, confidence in her voice like never before. She didn't care what other people thought about him; she enjoyed his company and would rather have him stick around, if it wasn't for the danger involved if he did.
She held an amused looked on her face as she waited for his reaction to her statement.
