[There's very little preamble before the network gets an earful of the distinctive, raspy tones of a certain ex-cop. Guy sounds like he smokes his cigarettes and eats them too. He also doesn't sound exactly comfortable to be speaking on the network, but anyone who's met him in person in the past few days knows that that forced impassivity is kind of his thing.]
I'm looking for someone who can work with cybernetics. Some know-how with computers or engineering would probably help, but I figure some of that comes with the territory. [A pause, and then:] Discretion preferred.
[The way he says it, one kind of gets the sense that he'd gladly find a way to make even the most indiscreet person suddenly learn the meaning of patient confidentiality– but it's just as easy to believe that that's just the way he talks.
There's another longer pause and then, at length, he adds:] I'd also be interested in speaking to anyone who can talk about the crewman we've got in the hold.
[Spooky, scary, skeleton-like – you've probably heard of Ploiatos. Adam certainly has, and (being the security-minded guy he is) he'd love to know what having a literal skeleton in the closet entails.
And since Adam Jensen's never exactly been known for ending conversations gracefully, that's where he chooses to cut the message off.
Certainly, no one can say he isn't to-the-point.]

[You know – considering he gets to spend his time babysitting the thing. He may not have learned too much about how it works or exactly what it's capable of, but it's very clear that it's got people scared.]
I appreciate the offer anyway– and the concern. Especially when my senses are involved.
[Rey and the way she's been (accidentally?) comparing him to a spaceship has got him a little worried, if it isn't clear.]

A living warning... how so?
[Is he running out all nine of his figurative lives? Actually, under these conditions, meeting someone who truly did have nine lives wouldn't be out of the question.]
