Yeah, I'm such a junkie. [Her impulse to grab for the can of mace in her satchel is quelled, and she just pulls the bag up onto the bed, then flashes him her wrist - there's a tiny little welt of blood from where she'd just been hooked up, but otherwise it's basically clear of any marks.] You wanna tell me why the hell you broke into my apartment? [Frankly, he's lucky Arthur isn't here. Arthur would've shot first and asked questions later, especially after his hotel room had been broken into last week.]

Curiosity. Alright, let's be straight with eachother, shall we?

[He crosses the room to lay a hand on the PASIV device.] Lucid dreaming. A whole new crime that's not even exactly illegal, a whole new underworld, a whole new subject to explore. Give me the details. Name your price. I'm not asking anything untoward.

[She purses her lips, then checks her watch.] Fine, but I don't need your money. [She tosses him a vial of the drug.] It's Somnacin. The real stuff, not cut with anything else or an off-label knockoff. It enables the shared dream state, through the device. [She indicates the PASIV.]

Look, I don't know everything about it, I just design the dreams. I know it was originally developed for military use, but like everything else the military tries to keep to itself, it got out onto the black market.
