911 Prewarning

[Iris Sirius]

Towers matter in TRiPhead?

any particular ones or kind, or didyou mean to say The Towers? As is in
those cheap pieces of trash that were meant to burn and crumble?

Or did you mean the tower on Phobos, which Russia sent a probe to last year
but it failed in the upper atmosphere.

or not to be sexual about it, but

Now Everyboby---go wstch builfing Seven crumble.

Mallie, dont be such a douchebag operative.  Yes they can control Argo
winning. obviously.  it was so argofuckyoutself.  why WOULD it win anything
or even be nominated?

Why?  In your world, theres nothing in power, controlling things....youre
like a five year old.

Prove it!  Prove it!
