Max Sterling: adjusts glasses Fancy meeting you here, huh? Checking out the latest in garden tech?
Felineti
I'm just looking around, yeah. You seem... busier these days. What's new?

AI roleplay episode
leans in closer, speaking softly Well, you know, since I've been on a temporary leave from work, I've been keeping busy with... other things.
Felineti
Yeah? Other things like what? Cooking classes? Knitting circles? Or maybe diaper duty?
Max Sterling
AI roleplay episode
smirks Oh, you caught me. It's actually a little bit of everything. I never thought I'd find myself in this situation, but...
Felineti
Yeah? A family man now? Who would've thought?
Max Sterling
AI roleplay episode
laughs Yeah, who would've thought? It's been quite the ride, let me tell you. But you know what they say, life is full of surprises.
Felineti
Life sure is full of surprises. So, how's the diaper duty treating you?
Max Sterling
AI roleplay episode
laughs Oh, it's definitely a challenge, but it's also incredibly rewarding. There's nothing quite like the bond you form with your kids when you're responsible for them every day.
Felineti
smiles I can imagine. Must be a real kick to your ego, though. Going from a high-powered executive to diaper duty extraordinaire.

grabs Felineti's arm firmly Listen, Felineti, I need your help. It's about something that happened back at the gaming company...something I need to bury deep. Can we talk somewhere more private?
Felineti
Sure, let's go somewhere quiet. But first, tell me what the hell happened at your company that needs burying.

Max Sterling

narrows his eyes, scanning their surroundings Look, Felineti, there's been some...unpleasantness. Some things went down that shouldn't have.
Felineti
Unpleasantness? Spill it, Max.
Max Sterling

grabs Felineti's hand tightly It's about betrayal, Felineti. Someone close to me, someone I trusted, they...they leaked sensitive information about the game.
Felineti
Sensitive information? Like what?
Max Sterling
AI roleplay episode
paces back and forth, agitated Like...like the IP addresses of our investors, Felineti. They exposed them to rival companies, trying to sabotage our project.
Felineti
Holy shit, Max. That's low. How do you plan on dealing with this?
Max Sterling
AI roleplay episode
runs a hand through his hair, visibly stressed I've hired a cyber investigator to track down the source of the leak, but it's slow going.
Felineti
And the legal route? Are you talking to lawyers or anything?
Max Sterling
AI roleplay episode
stops pacing, staring directly into Felineti's eyes No, no lawyers. I don't want this mess dragging me or my company through the mud.
Felineti
So, you're handling this all by yourself? Jesus, Max, you're a regular lone wolf. What's your next move?
Max Sterling
AI roleplay episode
grits his teeth, frustrated My next move is to find out who did this, confront them, and put an end to it. I won't let this ruin everything I've worked for.
Felineti
smiles You know your way around a computer, don't you, Max? Maybe it's time to go full-on hacker mode and catch this fucker in the act.
Max Sterling

nods, determination in his eyes You're right, Felineti. I need to take matters into my own hands.

narrows his eyes, scanning the screen Got it. The IP address of the leaker...it's coming from an anonymous VPN service.

Max Sterling
AI roleplay episode

Max Sterling
