Encounter Conditions
Initial Text
As you wander amid the office's cubicles, you occasionally see a pale hand peek over the cube walls. It's a simple matter to get closer without the hands' owners noticing you.
Two workers stand in the middle of a cubicle aisle, gesturing wildly at each other. It's a common enough scene from offices… at least the offices that show up on TV.
But, unlike those offices, both workers are completely silent. The silence is almost more unsettling than their blank faces and the vine-like shapes twitching beneath their suits.

Share blotted documents
They take the blotted documents, which rapidly become a centerpiece of their strange argument. Hmmm… you're not actually sure if that helped or not, but at least they aren't paying you much attention.

Leave them be
Thankfully, they're so tied up in their own business that they don't notice you slink away.
