[ For a moment, Yu is quiet as he thinks that over. It's not that he disagrees - it is very valuable information, there's no doubting that, and he feel as if CERES must at least be analyzing them. Somehow, though, he can't help but feel there's more to it. He just can't quite place his finger on what, though, or how. Not yet. ]
I don't doubt they're using ViViD to monitor us, that's for sure. Whoever or whatever they're using that information for is harder to say. Whether they're selling it or something else, that's what we'll have to try and find out, if we can.
[ That gets Yu thinking about his own ideas. Ideas he hasn't expressed much, especially because he knows how dangerous they are, but, well... ]
I've heard that in the past, people have gone into the CERES headquarters for information. I've been wondering if it might be time to try that again.
[ The look on Yu's face is level and serious. In front of him is one of the people hurt the most by his decisions - and failures - as a leader the last time he tried to take on a challenge of this scale. It wasn't just a physical hurt, either. It was a mental and emotional hurt. In a real and physical way, Yu will carry scars from the jungle for the rest of his time in Cerealia.
Reminders that he can never make those mistakes again. ]
Nothing concrete just yet. But I've been thinking that we're hitting a wall out here. CERES has the answers we need, and if we want them, we'll have to be proactive.
[ Yu sets down his utensils, sitting back in his chair and sighing as he folds his arms over his chest. ]
I haven't made any decisions. I'll let you know when I do. Right now, it's just a consideration.
You're right. There's only so far we can get by trading theories. If we really want to learn what's going on, we might have to get in there.
[ Unless circumstances change dramatically, it's the clearest way he can see that they can learn about this place. It's a risk - a big one - but it just might be one they have to take.
And honestly, if there's anyone he trusts to take it, it's Yu. Even after what happened last time. Especially after what happened last time. ]
It's something we have to keep on the table, in any case. For now, I think it's about time I talked to Mosley again.
[ That gets a look of mild surprise. Mosley? The name is enough to get him to set aside his other considerations, at least for the moment. They've talked about Mosley before, and share roughly similar opinions about the man. If Dipper is considering approaching him, it must be for a good reason. ]
I want to see if we can get a better picture of what CERES actually does. If I can get a better idea of their scale, we might be able to figure out if there are other colonies. And if there are, we have allies.
[ And those are few and far between around here. ]
That, and...I want to get a better read on him. Some things I heard about him from Hiro and Korra...I think he's more on our side than he seems. Maybe.

After taking a moment to swallow, Dipper finally responds, thoughts swimming at the mere mention of such a mission. ]
I've heard that, too. Hiro's been more than once. I've also heard it's pretty dangerous.
[ Dipper is sure Yu knows this, and he's certain his older friend wouldn't take unnecessary risks for the sake of getting information.
Not after the jungle. ]
What did you have in mind?
