Wings of Wonder: Comms

[voidtreckermods]

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

The comms are a bit crackly and can distorted especially if trying to talk over islands but they do work.

There's always something that keeps them from being of any help, and now it's not just the powers related to my domain. Even my ability to shift locations and hover has been interfered with.

[ This is likely record time for feeling done with a mission. ]

[namethattune]

...I would imagine knowing you are not alone in having power issues this time is of little comfort.

[Misery may love company, but that doesn't make it any less miserable.]

Are your powers functioning incorrectly or are they simply unavailable to you?

[controlsthedie]

I would say functioning incorrectly or at a reduced strength.

[ He hasn't been feeling exactly well either, but he can't exactly pinpoint if that's because he's forced to be on the surface without a nice dark rest or something about this world in particular. ]

[namethattune]

The same as mine, then. It is entirely possible that this is a side effect of this place, though I do not yet know for what purpose.

Be cautious, and do not hesitate to ask for help if you need it.

[Does Thanatos need the reminder? He has no idea. Is it worth saying anyway? Absolutely.]

[controlsthedie]

I had planned on taking a more supportive role in the Red Team this mission, so I don't intend to take unnecessary risks.

[ Granted, he is on the Red Team going along with Red Team things, but he's trying to stay back more this time. ]

[namethattune]

Good - that is the last thing any of us need to be doing at the moment.

[He really needs to find Senku after this, doesn't he.]

[controlsthedie]

I'm not the one who needs to be told that.

[ Thanatos will need to check in with Zagreus.

Also, Thanatos has become someone who needs to be told that. He's just behaving this time. ]

[namethattune]

Perhaps not normally, but we could all benefit from the reminder today.

[It's more of a group judgment call than an individual one.]

[controlsthedie]

Today and every mission.

[ Especially the fighting teams like Red and Blue. ]

[namethattune]

Then I suppose you did need to be told that this time around.

[There's a smile in his tone, however mild. Perhaps a bit of levity will help in the situation.]

[controlsthedie]

I'll leave the mission-wide daily reminders to you. No one wants to listen to Death.

... Death Incarnate.

[ A distinction needs to be made when there are two Deaths on the mission. ]

[namethattune]

I think you would be surprised how many people are willing to listen to what a god has to say.

Of course, it helps that you are also their teammate.

[controlsthedie]

Other gods. Not me.

[ Which means, Thanatos is still giving Siebren the task of doing the daily reminders. He doesn't want that one. ]

[namethattune]

Do not sell yourself short. You may hold more sway here than you realize.

[He isn't close with Thanatos himself, but it's not difficult to see that the god has friends on the train.]

[controlsthedie]

[ "Not recently," is what Thanatos wants to say. With how unsure he is of most things about his life, the last thing he needs is to be placed in any kind of leadership position. And any kind of sway he has is not because he's a god. Being a god hasn't done him much good. ]

I'm still leaving the reminders to you.

[ See above. ]

[namethattune]

If you insist.

[There's a bit of a smile in his voice, if Thanatos can hear it. And here he'd thought they weren't talking about the reminders anymore - at least, not entirely.]
