This session was played on 2025-08-10. Gaia and Clark are kidnapped by Victor Vituska, in search of revenge and eventually rescued by Maelle and Iorena.
Having managed to steal Zach Shpak's body from the rigasian army, Maelle and Iorena discuss where to send it so a cure can be found for him; they end deciding on Zhongguo, and the mission is given to Ferret and Stray Pyotr.
Despite the amount of work that Kort's audits are generating for her, Iorena finds some time to help Gaia learn more about her gift and how it is changed by the Glove. Iorena is understandably scared because Gaia keeps ignoring safety measures and loses almost a full night of time asking three questions to AMANDA.
Too wired to sleep Gaia tries do take a walk and is kidnapped by the men that Amanda has been warning her about during the last week.
Clark is approached by three gangsters who show him a photo of a tied-up Gaia and tell him that he's to go unarmed to a specific address and follow instructions to the letter without contacting neither the authorities or Iorena.
Clark attempts to skirt around the instructions by contacting Ferret and leaving a coded message for Iorena, then goes to the given address, that is actually a very expensive house belonging to a media mogul by the name of Antoine Motyl. In there, he's trapped in a room and put to sleep by a gas grenade.
Maelle's lunch is interrupted by the news that someone set fire to the Hunter's Guildhouse. Out of worry for both the Body Heist and the fire, she goes there, then cooperates with Pyotr to save Ferret, who had been left hurt and unconscious in a burning room.
Gaia wakes up to find herself in the presence of Vituska who is even creepier than he used to be and mentions that even if he's not into hurting girls (unless they are deviants) he promised Clark he would kill Gaia if he didn't obey his instructions.
Clark also wakes up, but has been drugged with something else that makes him unable to focus, preventing him from using his gift. Vituska gloats about the way he's going to kill him and take his gift for himself, but Clark is too high to take the threats seriously and this makes Vituska spitting mad, so he injects more of whatever Clark had in his veins already.
Maelle discovers that Ferret had been grasping one sheet of paper when he was attacked, the one written by Clark, and manages to decypher the message.
Gaia is unable to free herself, but apparently one of the gangsters is actually not into hurting teenagers, so he lets her go. She is escaping the house when she finds Vituska and Motyl coming in and having a conversation and discussing what they are going to do to Clark, so she instead sends Amanda to safeguard the glove and infiltrates the house.
Now higher then an atmospheric probe, Clark manages somehow to astral project and finds himself having a conversation with Riung several decades into the future, who explains some things that might not be relevant as of yet. When Clark asks Riung if she can help him, she tells him that she's making an adjustment.
In the Hunter Guildhouse, Maelle is suddenly interrupted by the arrival of Iorena, who is suddenly free because the second inquiry she had to participate on today has been cancelled. When she learns of the fire and the attack on Ferret, she identifies Vituska, and starts planning an assault.
As Vituska is getting a couple of men moving Clark's body downstairs, they hear gunshots. Vituska sends the men back upstairs, and goes to look out of the window. Gaia drops the heavy drapes on him and manages to disarm him, but then fails to hit him with the sword, instead getting it stuck on the wall. She escapes downstairs, and Vituska pursues.
Clark wakes up, now with his head clear, and proceeds to freeze the hands of both gangsters that were grabbing him, then steals one of their guns and goes back downstairs.
Iorena and Maelle enter the house and face Vituska on the staircase as Gaia sneaks out. They have a sword (and long knife) fight, two against one, and when Vituska feels threatened attempts to use his stolen gift to shred Iorena right next to him, but he also manages to shred his own face. He tries to run but he's killed by Maelle's sword, a shot from Clark, and two more shots from hunters brought by Gaia.
Later in the Hospital, while Iorena is being operated on, Kort comes in to give them a set of very backhanded compliments.
Rose was setting up a new Minecraft server.
The amount of happiness generated when Vituska was killed could have powered the AC units of an entire city block for a week. We need to find a way to bottle that.
There's no actual way to make a person unable to use their gift: no drugs that bring a person to “normal” and no collars/cuffs capable of blocking it; what can be done is pump people so full of relaxants that they become unable to focus on anything, be it their fingers or their gift. Continuous use of this will usually kill someone because of liver failure in a matter of weeks at best, though.
