002 | Video | In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth

[ The video screen shows a little girl of about 11 with shoulder length brown hair. You've probably seen her reading a battered book, maybe waiting by the blue lift or following Robert Capa around (and occasionally even holding his hand). She's wearing the standard uniform, but right now? Right now she's more than a little spooked. Anyone who's ( Read more... )

Hey, you're okay, all right? Where are you?

You can tell us all about whatever you found when you're settled. This isn't a ship you want to go exploring without a group.

[because that wasn't ominous at all.]

I wasn't going to open anything, just--just map coordinates, or at least figure out the rough way all of these hallways go...

[video] babbletechno December 15 2011, 06:11:39 UTC

Nothing wrong with that, just...try and get a team together next time. Or at least let someone know what you're doing and which direction you're heading. Having a friend on alert has saved me more times than I can count.

[Buddy system. Gotta love it.]

What frightened you?

[video] bearsthevision December 15 2011, 07:34:53 UTC

Just a strange feeling..

[ Have a bit of a weak smile ]

I can't quite describe it...

[video] babbletechno December 15 2011, 07:42:49 UTC

Is it similar to the feeling of something smiling at you all the time?

[Because that's seriously all the comms have been doing since he got here]

[ Chase's entire body freezes up, gaze going oddly cold, voice distant, withdrawn, almost mechanical. After a few moments, she speaks. ]

Yes.

[video] babbletechno December 15 2011, 08:01:30 UTC

[...]

You're right about it being something to do with the ship. I thought it was a quirk of the communications' system, but if it's not...

Don't go anywhere alone. You probably don't need to be told, but a ship you're relying on is the last thing you want as an enemy, especially without back-up.

[ video ] bearsthevision December 15 2011, 08:06:39 UTC

We have to get out of here.

Before things start.

[ video ] babbletechno December 15 2011, 08:09:55 UTC

Yes.

[He doesn't bother with, "we're all working on it". That won't help at all if they don't get it done in time.]

[Heatwave may be oblivious, but he hasn't survived millions of years of war by being stupid and incapable of recognizing a threat when it's thrown in his face.]

But if we don't, then we need to take actions to limit casualties if this gets...bad. Not spreading ourselves too thin is a start.

[ video ] bearsthevision December 15 2011, 23:20:46 UTC

Buddy system, right...

[ A wry, unsure smile. ]

At least I'm not the only one that can sense something.

[ video ] babbletechno December 16 2011, 02:40:59 UTC

Can't go wrong with it.

[Have a lopsided one in return]

You handle the sensing and I'll listen to the comms, all right? That should keep us ready for whatever's coming.

[ video ] bearsthevision December 16 2011, 04:01:19 UTC

[ She nods. ]

Hey. If, um.. If anything happens, I'll let you know. But I hope for both our sakes it doesn't.

[ video ] babbletechno December 16 2011, 04:34:04 UTC

[that smile's going to get a little smaller and he'll nod back]

Neither do I. Thanks, though. I'll do the same.
