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.

Comments

[philosopherspotato]

Yes!!! I'll be the most useful!

[Glowing self-recommendations.]

[wewillwewill]

[Hm. Yes. Granted the Potato might need to be kept in sight. Because it's best to have people keeping an eye on one another. Perhaps even in constant communication while the trip is being made. So they will be given instruction on how to get to where Elidibus is. Meanwhile:]

Please tell me about yourself. What is your name?

[philosopherspotato]

Mondia- [OH WAIT SHE'S USING A CODE NAME-

She cuts short with an almost comical 'mmph!' (too late to keep Elidibus from simply looking for anything starting with 'mondia' on the roster and finding a Mondial Ribbok Vardaman), before correcting herself.] Potato!

I'm a homunculus! So nothing kills me ever!

[That's not quite how it works, but she's at least telling the truth!]

[wewillwewill]

Potato then. [Or Monidal Ribbok Vardaman but hey, he's not going to judge psuedonyms.]

Hm. I'm familiar with the term. I look forward to meeting you. [After all the way people use terms differ from world to world. There is a pause though.] Though I would also enjoy speaking with you at length about your talents later, when we're aboard the train again.

[And you know, he can study the Potato without all the blinding and fettering of these power bindings.]

[philosopherspotato]

Yeah!

[Exactly!] Me too!! And okay! We can't talk when we're walking later, or here?

[The idea of discretion is often lost on Potato.]

[wewillwewill]

We may also talk here. But we might need to speak about what I've found more than we talk about yourself.

[He's patient, obviously. And sounds reasonable, right? But it doesn't seem like he'll need to be pushing his talents too hard for this situation.]

Have you been one of the train's passengers very long?

[philosopherspotato]

Ohhhhh...

[That's...a good point! Potato nods seriously on the other end of the com.]

Mnh! I've been here for....almost four months!

[Is that long? It feels super long.]
