Offr.com: What's it worth?
"Most people know Offr.com as the home of the gig economy: a website where you can find a buyer for your old couch, and a worker to haul it away. It’s the home of everything from marketplace goods and bespoke commissions to task fulfillment and transportation services. Some whisper about less-than-legal deals being available on a 'dark web' version of Offr.com. The company denies these claims."
Sooner or later, all Contractors receive an invitation to join Offr Red, the secret membership tier. Offr Red members gain access to exclusive high-confidence, anonymous services. They can sell extraordinary items to Offr or put them up for auction for other Offr Red members to bid on. Crafty Contractors rejoice!
On rare occasions, Offr can even make deals to tie up pesky Loose Ends. However, they always demand a special favor in return.

Pattern Recognition
“They’re not saying what they mean. But I hear what they are saying.
When activated, Wayne’s pupils dilate sharply as if adjusting to a sudden shift in light. He becomes still as his head tilts slightly, eyes scanning microexpressions and picking out minutiae of tone and detail. To observers, it feels like being under a microscope. His gaze lingers too long. His answers are just a beat off. There’s a sense he's not listening, just decoding.
Somewhere along the way, he fell into a frequency that most dismiss as background noise. Wayne listened, and it speaks to him. People say he's just paranoid.
But he knows the truth: people leak. Not just the secrets they choose to share, but the messages between words. Body language, lunguistic anomalies, eye movements... each part of the lattice. These messages are constant, undeniable, and inescapable.
The only problem is... it can't be turned off...
