Enemy Unknown: 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. They cannot reach those who have vanished.

No... or not yet. What's it about? Anything in particular to look out for?

[wewillwewill]

[There might be a sound of flipping pages.]

Hmm. It appears to be some form of story about life living in places such as these. I was merely curious. It seems someone has written personal stories based on the characters from this production. It's likely unimportant to the mission at hand.

[But if there's anyone that gets rescued and returns to find their diary gone, they're probably going to be sad :( Or embarrassed. Or both.]

[jingyeets]

... They wrote stories about a story?

[wewillwewill]

Yes. Though that's not unusual. Playwrights oft times revise materials for different audiences. A few of these stories appear to be small scenes centered around specific characters. Though I wouldn't be able to tell you if they're faithful to the source.

[jingyeets]

The who does the what now? Anyway, if it's faithful, if it isn't, they're stories in their own right at this point. Faithful to themselves!

[wewillwewill]

Playwrights are people who author stage plays. Sometimes, they will rewrite a play because the audience may not understand the original story.

[Or might take offense. Which can be a killable offense in certain places.]

You are right. It's seems a harmless exercise anyway.

[jingyeets]

... Why don't we have on on the Voidtrecker Express, that's the real question now.

How's the writing? Any good?

[wewillwewill]

[There is a short pause. Possibly the sound of a bit more page flipping.]

It would depend on your taste. Several seem to focus on a romantic tale. There are few scenes with combat. Hmm, the pacing seems better for a novel than a play. Though given the format it's written in, I suppose that's to be expected.

I presume you don't refer to the grammar and technical aspects of the writer's style. But if you're interested, the person seems well versed in their letters. Though some to be drafts and unfinished excerpts of a tale.

[jingyeets]

Huh. No idea, but I'd probably look at it once when I was bored.
