#game kinda just glosses over how piper fosters enough paranoia to get a man killed at the start of the story

[stoat-party]

I’ve always wondered what kind of evidence Piper had for McDonough being a synth, because there certainly wasn’t any in her article, and I finally found it — in some random Deacon dialogue, of all places. Arturo tells Deacon the mayor “keeps late hours, with strange visitors.” Deacon replies, “That’s not proof.” The informant says, “Hey, not even Piper’s dug up anything more yet.”

SO WHERE EXACTLY IS THIS WHOLE STORY COMING FROM, PIPER?
