Enemy Unknown: Comms

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.

But there's a whole station left to explore...

[Zagreus wants to keep go! Why no keep go??]

Sure, I'll meet you there and drop it off, then I'll keep exploring. What's behind those doors, mate? Don't leave us in suspense.
jingyeets: (chat | come back)

[personal profile] jingyeets 2021-10-16 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
... Uh, as far as I can tell, the rest of the station?

( he sounds so confused right now, but that's because. the station is large, and even the arrivals area was pretty big, let alone whatever was beyond it, so to speak )

Video -> Action

... oh! So that's how we get to those from here. Fantastic! I'll be right over.

[Enticing him with more exploring is definitely the way to go here.

Zagreus comes jogging up with the map in hand.]


All right, how do we get through this door? And is it just me, or do you two feel less... godly than normal, too?
jingyeets: (glance | it will always be the same)

[personal profile] jingyeets 2021-10-16 03:07 pm (UTC)(link)
( are they all gods here now, or at least powerfully and divinely aligned? (yes, basically.)

jingyi blinks before he frowns.
)

Ugh, yes. This is like running around wearing invisible qi-binding rope, it's annoying. I can't even shift!

( this actually offends him, as it's suppressing part of his inherent nature even more than the train itself does. )

Anyway, I'm not sure, how do the doors read the SCA?

( he looks to elidibus, holding his arm up and out towards says doors while the scanner is in his other hand. he's not quite close enough for the doors to register, so this is an exaggerated pointing. )
wewillwewill: (Elidibus-lookaway)

Sorry I seemed to have lost track of this!

[personal profile] wewillwewill 2021-10-18 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
[God Gang God Gang God Gang God Gang.... ahem]

Simply approaching them will suffice, once you've registered your SCA to the scanner as a visitor.

[Elidibus picks up these techy terms pretty easily. It's not his fault that his world is a hybrid stock fantasy and science conglomeration!

...

...

It's Emet-Selch's]


There are devices in the door itself which will be able to detect and read the SCA.

[He steps closer to demonstrate the principle. Sure enough even without raising his arm to wave it about, as Elidibus draws near the doors register his presence and start signaling that they will be opening.]
dyingpro: Grinning (No burdens; no further debts to be paid)

[personal profile] dyingpro 2021-10-18 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
[God Gang God Gang God Gang!!]

Oh, wow! Brilliant job there, Elidibus mate. Can you register me next?

[And he'll hold out his SCA-clad arm to get that registered!]

Here's the map I found, by the way. [He'll hold it out for someone to take with his other arm.] I'll take a look around at those brighter stars, see what can be found in them. Surely they must be important, if they've been laid out like this on a map?
jingyeets: (ask | we were the ones)

[personal profile] jingyeets 2021-10-18 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
( Jingyi peers to the map, while lifting the scanner and gesturing for Zagreus to bring his outheld arm closer. The scanner beeps charmingly when it registers that he's not registered, providing the screen answer that Jingyi doesn't hit YES on, but turns to Zagreus so he can have the honours of selecting to change his SCA to VISITOR status. )

Does that mean more doors in this place are going to do that?

( Still peering at that map, but only taking it now, squinting at the constellations. )

You said this part's what it's like out here, so... they have to mean something. Maybe where whoever's missing would be more likely to have been found? Power storing locations? Do places like this store power.

( he extends the map to Elidibus, shaking his head. )
wewillwewill: (Elidibus-fiddle)

[personal profile] wewillwewill 2021-10-18 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh hey, a map. While the other two handle the scanner and SCA conversion for Zagreus, Elidibus takes and looks over the map.]

...What a fanciful design. [Does it not have legend? There will be a faintly annoyed frown about this.]

I suppose they should be investigated. I would find it hard to believe a place like this does not have a reserve power system, if only to continue supporting life in emergencies.

[Being a space station and all.]

But if they are places to store power, I doubt they'd be marked so readily on a map anyone could come across. Perhaps something else but I agree they are worthy of investigating. Shall we recruit others to do so?
dyingpro: Fite!! (To all the fools that stifled me)

[personal profile] dyingpro 2021-10-27 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm on it, mate. Let me take a picture of it, here...

[One quick snap of the camera button on the SCA, and he has a portable map of his very own!]

I'll let you know what I find, Elidibus mate!

[And Zagreus runs off toward the nearest 'star', eager to have somewhere new to explore.]
jingyeets: (ask | though we don't share)

[personal profile] jingyeets 2021-10-28 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
( Jingyi, watching Zagreus, slowly shakes his head. )

How do you not exhaust yourself...

( Hey, he gets wanting to be moving, it's something he prefers, but running around like this just sounds like asking to get injured, killed, or get others injured or killed?

(If only he knew.)
)
wewillwewill: (ard-sidelong)

[Meanwhile Elidibus watches Zagreus dart off. He seems to muse something for a moment, possibly similar to what Jingyi says aloud given the glance he briefly casts toward the dragon.

But he waits. And waits a bit more, possibly a span of time measured by an estimation of 'how long it will take Zagreus to figure out his human level stamina Cannot Compare to godly endurance' before addressing the godling over the comms.]


Are you remembering to pace yourself, Zagreus?

[The well-practiced mildness with just a hint of concern. Does nothing to indicate he'd purposefully waited until Zag likely DID forget and tire himself out. Let's see if he's correct.]
