Greatrats can be fast but you've been drugging this one to keep it under. It's just it was Squib's shift to dope it and that never happened. Where ever it is it's groggy and with all the commotion tonight it's probably hiding. (at least until the drugs wear off)
Wait, are some of the patrols coming back in? Maybe some of Squib Squad has returned...
...oh wait it's just some Repair Squad stragglers, dang they look pretty shaken up.
Oh yikes is that one repair squad girl! Lisa, you think. She was good friends with Tom Third back when he was in charge of the squad...before...
...well even before then she didn't have the best impression of you. You almost beat her at swamprats once by sliding some extra cards from your sleeve. She didn't see you cheat, but she still caught you. It was...entrancing...actually, watching the intensity in her eyes as they darted from her hand to yours, putting all the pieces together. She then studied your face and, well, in that moment she gained your respect, and you lost all of hers.
You've done a good job of avoiding her, though you've seen her play a few times before, always staring with that same unrivaled intensity. But now...she seems pretty shaken up, maybe something happened out on patrol.
Go talk to her. Hear what's gotten her shaken up. If she gives you the time of day, maybe you can help. She despises cheaters but, she's so damn clever and Tom spoke so highly of her, it's possible she would help.
