Case 211

[manofgnee]

I think there's something wrong with my communicator...I mean, at first, I thought it was cuz of a curse or something, but I think it might have minor water damage

You actually managed to break one of these things? Dude, I'm impressed. I threw mine against a wall and nothing.

[manofgnee]

It's not totally broken! It's just...not working at full capacity, that's all!

Try dunking it in a toilet or something, I'm sure it won't survive that.

[totallyinaband]

I don't think I want to try, thanks.

Do you know anyone here who's actually had to get one of these things replaced?

[manofgnee]

No, I don't...I don't think they've ever needed to be replaced...

I think I just need to get it fixed, is all.

[totallyinaband]

So is there like a City-wide IT department or something?

[manofgnee]

I dunno. Do I ask the deities to fix it or something, or does that count as making a deal?

[totallyinaband]

I have no clue. I've never even spoken to one of those guys.

[manofgnee]

Smart. Continue to not speak to them.

[totallyinaband]

I'll make a note.

[manofgnee]

Good.

[totallyinaband]

How're you doing, dude? Stayed safe over Halloween?

[manofgnee]

Yep! I went down to the cemetery, hung out with the dead people. It was nice.

[totallyinaband]

That... would not be my definition of safe, man.

[manofgnee]

My best friend happens to be a dead person. He's just not here right now, that's all...and the dead people in the cemetery deserve some love, too, right?

[totallyinaband]

[How much love, Hanna?]

As long as no one tried to eat you.

[manofgnee]

Nah, they're in the ground. And in my experience, zombies don't eat people.

[Love as in company, perv. He does this every year, because to him, the cemetery and the graves are like his way of visiting all the people he's lost when they left here, the people he's lost at home...it's all symbolic.

And the actual dead people get a visitor. Everybody wins.]
