Comms

On day Ten of the month of Fiddlesticks the SCA's light up and a holographic screen appears.

It has three options.

Talk to All

Talk to Team

Talk to Individual

For the third option, a list of passengers appears and names can be searched for by letter. Anyone who has been working to try and make communications happen on their own devices will find those linked in to this network- though it is still only possible to use voice. The short distance radios in their helmets also automatically connect so they can use their SCA communicators without removing life saving equipment!

I don't think we've got time to look for our worst singer right now, Nita-! We've plenty of brute force, but...the thing's colossal! And now that we're stopped in one place all the crabs that have been taking shots at us since we arrived are ganging up on us.

[More sounds of fighting.]

Not the greatest time for a chat, but just in case it's relevant, what's your puzzle?
unfavorableinstigation: Nita looking directly at the viewer, mouth slightly open, as if she's in the middle of an important or unamused expression. (Focused)

Something for team Blue, I think; getting a- a sort of plinth set up on the island, out in the open! With a bright beacon on it.

For a ritual, no doubt - maybe it's supposed to help fight off whatever you're dealing with, restore a balance?

... Can you trick that bigger beast into hitting the crabs instead?

Or better yet, hit it with them?

I'm not sure that's...never let anybody tell you you're not imaginative, Nita. If the Petals of Nil weren't being such a royal pain in my ass to wield then maybe I'd try for a giant crab catapult.

Your plinth might be linked to the one our soft-headed foe is in the way of. Maybe, anyway! We'll try and get the jellyfish out of the way, you get that thing working!

We're on it!

... I still mean that part about staying in one piece, Sven. We'll have our magic show-off after this, promise!

Same to you, Nita, look after yourself out there. Keep an eye on those crabs, too, they're fighty!
unfavorableinstigation: Nita in snowclothes, holding a snowball and ready to aim&fire! (She's gonna hit you... with a snowball!)

Right on.

[And Nita signs off, to clear at least some of the noise for Sven, and so she can get back to giving those crabs some 'fighty' of her own!]
