Octavius watched Sylar's reaction and the brief change in his expression before it returned to the grin. He could not tell what was happening inside the young man's mind, even if he was curious to find out. Still, his single-minded obsession was clear to see and that the doctor could use. Still, he was not one to shy away from an opportunity.
"It is often the shoulders of youth that best carry the burden," Octavius replied with a slight smile. " and if I'm right, and we get our hands on some of Oscorp's more... shady research, I might be able to engineer ways to make your quest easier. Of course, I would need to observe how your abilities work for myself to know for certain. As for how we will get into Oscorp, I have two ideas." Octavius tapped away at the old keyboard, pulling up the file of another man. An old balding gentleman with droopy cheeks and milky eyes. "Dr Alvin Biddle, a former researcher from Oscorp. Despite being retired, I know he still goes to Oscorp to work part-time at the personal request of Norman. He spends most of his free time at a cottage to the south of New York City. Loyal to a fault and an absolute tool, just the kind of sycophant Osborn likes to put in charge."
Octavius had never liked Biddle, even before he left the company. He had never been much for a yes-man. There was never any honesty coming from such a person, just agreement, which did nothing for progress. "My first suggestion is that we pay him a visit, and you can demonstrate your skills by reliving Dr Biddle of what he knows. Codes, layout, anything useful we might need." Dock Ock flipped off the screen before turning to Sylar. "The second suggestion is to forcefully break into the building, a simple but effective solution. Combining both our abilities, we should make short work of most defences standing in our way."
"I think I'll leave the choice to you, my young ally. Shall we go for the doctor or storm our way inside?"
