Hi, can I commission a very large painting from you? I'm thinking of renovating my business.

PM to CitadelChefSure - though I warn you, my time is rather limited for commissions at the moment. Depending on the exact size and the subject, it can take awhile...right now I'm estimating anywhere from nine to fourteen weeks or more. For record-keeping purposes, I'll also need you to fill out the form on my site here. If you're still interested, prices start at five credits a square inch, plus the cost of framing.

And now that the business part is over with, tell me about the restaurant! Do you have a subject matter in mind, or a particular feel or theme you're going for? I work in a couple different styles, mostly human renaissance periods, but I have dabbled in others if you had something else in mind. My job is to make sure you get exactly what you're looking for, but I need something to go with first :)

The restaurant has a large back wall that has a HV screen on it- But there's another wall on the back that's mostly bare.
The theme we have is relatively unique (from what I've been told)- we don't have many chairs, and customers stand around tables and eat and mingle with one another. Essentially a large buffet.

[here] are some photos of the place, taken just ten minutes ago after we closed out. The theme to me is how food can bring people together. I can pay you your fee, and I can wait on it, I'm just trying to spice up the place. We're at 45E Shin Akiba, if you ever want to stop by for tea or a bite to eat. :)

ENCR-MSG to VigilantVanguard: I'll be at the Citadel in a few days and will be visiting Food and Friendship, but I didn't want to just send this over typical Alliance Extranet protocols.

A friend of a friend told me you have some intelligence connections - if that's the case, I need to show you something...disturbing. Is your partner's cafe safe enough? I'll even tell you how I got the name Stitcher.

"Anonymous Message to: Alliance Mom" Dear Mrs. Mathioudakis,

As a peruser of your pre-war work, I am interested in knowing whether or not you are still in the business of investigative journalism, or if you would be willing to publicize information passed along to you in that vein.

Sincerely,
An Anonymous Ally

Dear Anonymous Ally,

I'm afraid your information is somewhat out of date. I go by Helena M. Knox now.

While I am technically retired from the work of journalism, I still have my equipment, and barring that, access to sources among ANN and the FCC. I could publish, either independently, or anonymously through them. Of course, that would require knowledge of what exactly you are offering me, before I could determine to pass you on to one of my more trustworthy colleagues.

I would like to help, but I'm afraid I will require more information before agreeing to anything.

Sincerely,
Helena Mathioudakis Knox.

"Encrypted Encrypted Message to VikSajee vas Kolosya" No time. Can't calm down. Can't slow down. Too risky.
On my way ASAP

Anonymous Message To: Alliance Mom Dear Mrs. Knox,

Congratulations on your marriage to Mr. Knox. I do hope that it goes splendidly, and that you live long, healthy, happy lives together.

I have information on, among other things, the Chavka 5 attack and its ties with intelligence and terrorist organizations within Citadel Space and the Terminus and Abyss. In addition, I have access to files regarding the Systems Alliance Transitional Authority on Earth that they have a vested interest in keeping suppressed. In addition, I have a semi-complete list of parties whom the Systems Alliance pardoned during the Reaper War for services rendered, as well as a list of debts incurred as a result.

Sincerely,
An Anonymous Ally

Dear Anonymous Ally.

First, I must thank you for your sincere congratulations, and that I wish your own personal endeavors go quite so well.

Secondly, that is an impressive sum of information, if it indeed exists. Such information would likely cause something of a scandal once released publicly. Which prompts me to ask how you came by this information, and what do you have to gain by releasing it to me or one of my colleagues?

Sincerely,

Helena M. Knox

This site is full of raving people who hate each other.
I don't know if I want to stay on this. Every discussion devolves into insults.

PM To Citadel Chef
Chris, to use an expression you've heard frequently in your profession, "if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen"

Spend your time on the extranet however you like, you're an adult. No one is making you stay here.

I sent that PM when I was stressed.

I can most certainly handle the heat.

Anonymous Message To: Alliance Mom Dear Mrs. Knox,

Thank you for the well wishes.

While I cannot give away the specifics of how I came across this information, as the safety of people who have helped me or who I care deeply about is on the line, I can tell you that I primarily came across the information through allies, contacts and discrete calls to information brokers.

As for my motive, I rather expect not to survive the next few months, and I rather imagine my death will be less than peaceful. As a result I would like an...assurance, as it were, that this information reaches the public in an accessible manner whether or not I survive to see it. A simple murder or two should not stop the truth from getting out.

Admittedly, there is a significant consideration towards spiting my would-be murderers, but in the case of my possibly-impending murder, I feel utterly justified in a last bit of hateful spite.

Sincerely,
An Anonymous Friend

Dear Anonymous Ally.

Well, while I cannot agree to anything without first hand examination and verification of the data you have on hand, I will say you've piqued my interest somewhat. I can sympathize with your motivations, having been in similar circumstances where survival was not guaranteed.

Now, with that said, how would you like to go about transferring the information to me? I'm not quite the traveler I uses to be, but if you insist on a personal hand off, somewhere on the sol system would be acceptable, and somewhere on the North American continent would be more convenient for me.

Sincerely,

Helena M. Knox

Private Message to Zarr'Korek Probably not as well as Rannoch is treating you.

We've got most of the new stock in, and we've made deals with a few local colleges to make kits for their classes. I'm making enough that my life here is sustainable.

Thank you again for passing the shop on to me.

Think nothing of it. It is good that you have it.
I'm glad that I've given you an avenue of employment. It can be hard for a quarian on the Citadel.
Keep your chin up and stay strong and the day will reward you.

[Here's] a few hundred photographs of Rannoch, if you are interested.
Please keep in touch if you need anything.
