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. If they have headphones from the music room they can make it so they work like earpieces.

Give your thread a day and timestamp. Replies to a top level should be in one thread unless you switch to speak to individual (and make a thread under that heading.)

11:15 AM, Horseshoe 6

[ohaiyo_isekai]

This is Hikaru. I have quite recently been living in a world with a similar sense of fashion and adventure.

I would be quite willing and happy to assist in helping you with personal fashion that will not only properly conceal that we are from further away than, for example, a foreign kingdom, while also being both stylish and indicative of your abilities. Mind, I am using the 15 Classes of Another World Online as an aid to visual shorthand.

Thorne, do you think you would be able to assist, or rather would you require assistance? I understand that working on the individual mundane scale is... novel, to you.

[thornsofmundus]

I mean, people's gear was really Jae'Eun's domain, but I do have some knowledge of sewing in my currently accessible database. Probably because I'm supposed to make my own dresses--and I do, just... not like that. So I could hem things for people?

And I can at least tell when things look right.

Do you think they've got clothes like my usual dresses?

[blitzcheer]

15 Classes...Of Another World Online?

[ Hi, don't mind him just repeating that because that stuck out to him first and foremost. ]

Re: 11:15 AM, Horseshoe 6

[singerofspells]

That would be appreciated. I'm going to be relying on shapechanging to look human, at least when around the locals, and I've never had to think about clothing.

Horseshoe 6, just before afternoon briefing

[spikelet]

[ guess who's trying to sound Competent and Professional ]

This is Qing, from Blue team. Ah... I'm gonna be the communications specialist for this mission, okay? If you need to contact Blue team with anything important, you'd better send your message to me instead of bothering anyone else! By order of Blue leadership!

[ well actually blue leadership hasn't said anything of the sort but Mister Gladio agreed that she could do this in advance and she's taking that as permission so LET'S GO. ]

HORSESHOE 6 | Mid-afternoon

[adregem]

[ Roland talks in a hushed whisper. He was hiding somewhere secluded, where people didn't frequent, as he makes this announcement. ]

Good day, Voidtreckers. This is Roland, I hope I'm coming in clear.

[ There are some pauses here and there. He's trying not to be heard, obviously. ]

Some of you probably encountered kids here and there, all with sticky fingers wanting to dip into your pockets. Well, I managed to talk to one for a bit of information, in exchange for a treat or two. [ Pause. ] Here's what the kid told me:

The people here seem to blame nobles in Jura, who are the invading force. Looks like it's a unanimous belief that they're responsible for dark magic - the blight. Meanwhile, King Varfrin rules Irivar. There are other monarchs across the region, dragons and other races included, but that's all he had to say about that.

Lastly, the only unusual thing going around town is that all of us suddenly made an appearance, so people are wondering when we're being shipped off to the front lines. Other rumors he's caught wind of are insignificant, unless you count chasing missing chickens and secret affairs between the guards and the townsfolk relevant enough for our mission. [ Spoken a little dryly, but what else can he say about that? ]

I'll clock in again later in the day with more information. Thanks. This is Roland, over and out.

horseshoe 7

[flatteries]

Inigo here with a message for everyone who's still near to the place we started in. So.. erm, anyone who decided to stick with purple, I suppose. Everyone else is free to ignore this! [ Look, it's hard when there's a 'talk to team' option but not a 'talk to everyone in your general vicinity' option.. ]

But I thought it might be a good idea to go hunting out here. We could get some meat to take with us, and maybe carry out some requests for gold at the same time. It'll be better to do it in groups, considering it's not exactly super safe out here. I'm familiar with hunting the kind of wildlife out here-- well, aside from the trolls, anyway, but I was assuming no one wants to eat those. [ Please!! No!! ] So I wouldn't mind heading out there. Is anyone else interested?

horseshoe 8, morning

[magicurls]

I'd like to speak to the red and blue groups, and Mr. Crane and Mr. Glorfindel. Everyone else can feel free to ignore!

This is Mami Tomoe. I wanted to inform you all that my friend Buttercup and I are moving from the red group to the blue group, to assist a friend in distress. I've left a few rifles behind for Red to aid in defense.

We're willing and able to make the trip on foot, so don't worry if we can't spare the teleporting power. I know it's a long way, and we'll have to prepare for a tundra. That's all right.

Horseshoe 8

[enthunder]

This is Light-- Claire Farron, on Red. [ Stupid 'roster name contact list'. ] Stark and Fëanor just evacuated without saying anything. Can't raise either of 'em on here. Anyone know what's going on?

FORWARD DATED: Horseshoe 11, Late

[seacub]

Uh, hi- this is Emporio; technically I'm team Orange, but I'm with team red right now...

Anyway this isn't really that mission related actually, but it seemed the best way to get some help; right now I've been trying to earn enough of the currency here for a glider. I think it would work pretty great with Weather's abilities...

..It's...pretty expensive though. It's 500 gold, and I only have 70 so far...or I should at least, we got enough of that ore...

If anyone is willing to help me pool for it, I'd be really grateful! And, uh...well, obviously I wouldn't do it for 'free'- I don't know what I'd do in return yet, but we could probably figure out something...

Late afternoon, Horseshoe 6

[10billionpercent]

Hey. It's Senku.

Just a report on what I've learned from talking to the innkeeper. She said this area got lucky, because their alchemist was prepared with the crystals to stop the effects of this blight.

She told me about a farmer that accidentally burned down his own barn because of internalized elements going haywire from the incident.

I asked what the odds are that it would happen again and she avoided the question.

Based on this conversation, I would suggest proceeding with caution as people or animals may be affected from the attack, and there's no guarantee it won't happen again while we're here, and I'm not sure what to suggest about that.

Just passing along the information.

Talk to Team

[voidtreckermods]

Give your thread a day and time stamp and specify which team. Replies to a top level should be in one thread unless you switch to speak to individual (and make a thread under that heading).

Note that you only have the option to speak to your own team here and all of those designated that team (no matter what mission they are on) can hear. (So for example a message to purple will go to all of purple even the member of purple who is currently working with blue. Likewise that message to purple will not reach those of red who are helping out and working with purple.)

Horseshoe 7, morning

[ohaiyo_isekai]

Air sprites are intrinsically invisible with a discreet aura. If you don't have magical senses, throw glitter or other highly visible particles at them. This will allow you to see them more easily without harming or, indeed, angering them.

Talk to Individual

[voidtreckermods]

Specify individual (remember names will be those on the passenger roster) and give the thread a day

day 6, senku ishigami

[blitzcheer]

[ It's later in the day from when they last parted ways, so Senku could earn some coin (thankfully, the guild is short of plenty of hands to take on anyone who's willing) and Tidus went to find out more about the mission locations. ...and do some work himself. But the SCA beeps for Senku, a voice speaking once it connects. ]

Senku? This a good time?

[ You're not hammering away on top of a roof, are you!! Don't hammer and answer the phone! ]

to madoka kaname, horseshoe 8

[magicurls]

Madoka, how are you handling the snow?

We're in the middle of a volcano! It's been tough, but I think we're going to be all right.

To Inigo Horseshoe 8

[longforgottenpromise]

[This mission is very different than the last, but no less upsetting, for different reasons.

But he has kept to his promise from last mission, half because he felt a need to at least try and keep track of Inigo and mostly because it was good to hear his voice.

So approaching evening Inigo's SCA will light up.] Inigo? Are you there?

To Inigo - Horseshoe 9

[unfavorableinstigation]

[Halfway through what Nita feels is the amount of work she's going to get done this week - she may be resting regularly, but her arms are sore from carrying Huma chicks! - she places a call she's been looking forward to.]

Inigo! How are you? How's the mission going for you all back on the ground?

[Much as there's been some cause for concern these days, Nita still manages to inject some humor into her last question.]

day 6, nerdanel

[blitzcheer]

[ The two spoke about sharing any info they found later, so after some hours of investigating solo, Tidus gets Nerdanel's SCA to buzz with a call. ]

Nerdanel, hi? It's Tidus.

To Tidus - Horseshoe 9

[unfavorableinstigation]

[And after talking to Inigo, Nita knows who else she still has to talk to.

Awful lot of people losing people, this week. Not good!]

Tidus? You able to chat right now?

[If he's busy fighting snowstorms or something, Nita can wait - the last thing she wants to do is distract him into getting injured.]

Horseshoe 8 | Nerdanel

[laurefindil]

Nerdanel? Are you okay?

[He's concerned, as Light just told him that Feanor has disappeared.]

horseshoe 9, della duck

[blitzcheer]

[ After speaking with Nita, there's a nagging that Tidus can't get rid of. And so, with the sound of a howling the background acoustics of his call- ]

Duck Mo-- [ um, ] I-I mean, Della? It's Tidus.

Day 10, Xue Yang

[spikelet]

[ She's not contacting him because she wants to talk to him, she's making this call because it's the only way she can think of to check if he's one of the people who disappeared back to the train. ]

Don't answer, don't answer--

day 9, senku ishigami

[blitzcheer]

[ He remembers overhearing listening in on Senku and Roland speaking days before about suspicious activity, to some extent. Blue's mission has been too far away from people, but he's been curious, and so after getting in some calls already with people... ]

Hey, Senku?

[ Might as well see how things are going, at least with Orange, even if he spoke with Nita earlier that day. ]
