enter Sir Grumpus McWhinelord, King of the Pissbabies [audio; filtered from Gene]
[It's been a week, and Tony has done everything short of throwing himself on the floor of a Governor's office and literally kicking and screaming. And despite all his arguments and protests and even a few veiled threats, he is still stuck with Gene. They take this 'link' pretty seriously here. Tony thinks it sounds like a bunch of faux-mystical nonsense, but apparently he's not going to get the Governors to budge on it.
That means the only people he has left to turn to are the Fatemarked and his fellow Sentinels. He has absolutely no faith that the Governors are telling him everything. Maybe the other recruits will give him some straight talk.
The post is audio - he's not disguising his identity, but he's not going out of his way to make it obvious, either. He has locked the post from Gene, though. Gene already knows that he is extremely unhappy with the situation, and Tony really doesn't care about offending him, but he wants to minimize Gene's opportunities to needle him with snarky comments.
He makes a cursory attempt to hide the post from the bigwigs, too, but he's aware that it probably won't be effective. Fine. If they see him going behind their backs to get this fixed, maybe they'll start taking him seriously.]
So, these 'links' that some people have - what's the deal? The Governors can't really think we'll believe them when they say they don't know anything about them, right? Somebody's got to know how they work. And how to break them. Who else has one? Are they permanent? Does anyone have any idea why they happen? [...HE'S ASKING FOR A FRIEND.]

It's been... dreams, [he finally admits, looking intensely uncomfortable. He has to say something, even if he really super doesn't want to.] About things that never happened to me. They're his memories.

Geez. Who is it, do you know?

[What's that smell? Smells like... DRAMAAAAA.]

...And?

[Once he feels comfortable opening up, he'll never shut up about it. But until then, you're going to have to pry every detail out of him with a crowbar, Cissie.]
Re: video; private
I'm going out on a limb here and assuming he's not your BFF.

No. He just pretended to be.

Well, that sounds like a story.

Let's just say, he's the last person I'd ever want to get stuck in a psychic link with. So, yaaaaay. [Drawn out with a sarcastic drawl.] Lucky me.
[Now, Tony, that's not fair. MODOC or Yogthulu would probably be worse. Maybe Justin Hammer.]

Damn. I'm sorry, Tony.
