Mute...

He seemed quiet, maybe his name is ironically mute?

What's the earliest memory I have of him...

MUTES QUARTERS.

Mute?!:"Oh 6! I have been meaning to show you something!"

6:"uhh...so far all I see is like grape juice"

Mute:"haha it's something I call T.F.I, we could really improve our accuracy with this!"

6:"Hmm what's it do?"

Mute:"it should enable us to enter a hyper focused state, we could land shots with the most inaccurate weapons with this, I plan to show command see what they think of it"

6:"have you tested this?:

Mute:"I'll use it on myself for the-:

6:"no, is this going to kill you or something? Have you checked for that?"

Mute:"I'll be fine, it uses the same ingredients as our other injections like the buttery lung"

6:"and those cause nerv damage that lead to tinnitus and disorientation"

Mute:"Trust me"

6:"don't fucking die"

Uh.. I think when Mute used it, he was fine for a little bit, but I think he hurt himself in the process

[High rank command]:"Alright we have a camera set at your target, let's see if you can pull it off:

[Employer]:"I have a good feeling about this"

[Founder]:"don't get your expectations too low [Employer]"

Mute injected his T.F.I, he raised the pistol, iron sight, target is 500m away, no wind.

Or...I think so

After a slight delay, he fired, and after a second, the camera shows the bullet hit square in the head

[Employer]:"haha! Look at that, nailed that shot, I have to say Eric that thing really did wor-... is he alright?"

Mute, started shaking, violently, I- is this when...

He collapsed! And he's still shaking! Is he dieing?!

[Founder]:"GET A MEDIC HERE! ASAP"

Right- I visited him in the medical ward, he was unable to speak, they appeared to have offered cybernetics but he refused...

After that mute kept working on it, trying to make a clean brew...

Wait he's with someone, it's kinda like me and chell... they are happy..

It looks like soken, she saved me right?

Huh. Never noticed the ears..

I should return to sleep.
