Day 43 - Phone Call (Everyone)

Feb 23, 2011 01:21

Shepard to Normandy. I repeat. Shepard to Normandy. Come in.

[She hasn't slept in twenty-four hours. Until now, she's been fine-- checking herself, trying to settle in, trying to work out where she was. But it's hit her ( Read more... )

[The call hits Jaime hard. The part of him that's been trying to keep himself from worrying about his family, trying to assure himself that everything is okay, that he'll get home and it'll all be fine--dissolves away like nothing. His fears are very slowly resurfacing. One by one.

If only because she's reminded him how homesick he is.

Where has the Justice League gone? Where is Booster Gold? Where's Ted Kord, where's Zatanna? Where are his friends? His mother, his father, his sister? Where are they--what are they doing?

Are they safe?

Yes, Shepard's call for help has hit him, hard. Right where it hurts most.

He wants to go home.]

I'm not from the Normandy. I think this phone only calls to people within town.

[Jaime swallows the lump in his throat, but his voice is still quieter than before.]

Sorry.

paragonsiha February 23 2011, 08:11:23 UTC

Oh... oh.

Sorry.

[Great. Not only did that go through, but it's a kid.]

Been trying to reprogram this damn thing all night.

[She doesn't know what else to say. There's no excuse for losing her cool like that.]

w_w_t_k_d February 23 2011, 08:19:12 UTC

It's okay. The technology around here's kind of weird for some people.

[Jaime doesn't mind too much, Shep! He's heard worse. One of his best friend is a PC gamer.]

Any luck?

paragonsiha February 23 2011, 08:32:19 UTC

It's so primitive.

But no. Haven't managed a damn thing with it.

[Well, here's a call Zev can't ignore. He really shouldn't interfere since he has no idea what she's talking about but...pffft why not. He's bored. She's lovely.]

What is the problem, my dear?

paragonsiha February 23 2011, 09:41:43 UTC

...Damn.

I.

Sorry about that.

I've been trying to get this damn thing to connect to my crew. Still isn't working...

[She will deny how upset she's getting over the lack of communication.]

tentassassin February 23 2011, 10:10:23 UTC

[Oh, Zev knows the feeling! They should both find a way to patch that up, somehow.]

Ah, your comrades? There's no need to apologize for that. After all, I think a good number of us are stranded here from our companions. And enemies.

paragonsiha February 24 2011, 18:56:15 UTC

I got them pulled into a fight, and... For all I know? They're fighting-- dying for what I dragged them into. And I can't help.

[Clears her throat a little awkwardly.]

Still Bell Pointe.

paragonsiha February 24 2011, 18:56:53 UTC

A--ah.

Damn thing.

[She will try and pawn this off as just... being annoyed. No being upset here. Nope.]

demiurgos_girl February 24 2011, 23:43:07 UTC

I can't say that I miss home all that much. But I know the feeling.

Do you want to talk about it?

hypocriteonjl February 23 2011, 16:33:00 UTC

...Am very sorry, miss. Is not Nomadny...

paragonsiha February 24 2011, 18:57:23 UTC

My apologies, sir. I was trying to rewire the comm device to reach my ship.

hypocriteonjl February 24 2011, 22:28:28 UTC

Is quite all right, miss. I have tried same thing, but with clucky old computer. Is much understanding.

matchmaking February 23 2011, 22:03:04 UTC

Are you done yelling?

paragonsiha February 24 2011, 19:00:36 UTC

Yes.

I was attempting to set this device on a different frequency.
