☣001; VIDEO → VOICE☣

[ the wearable has been activated with a jitter, the brief flicker of video showing nothing but a shadowed figure. what can be gleaned is that this figure is intimidating in stature and musculature, but no facial features can be seen. and as quickly as that, it shuts off.

it seems as though the user is testing the functions. finally, after a moment, an audio stream begins instead. the voice that follows is hardened, clipped and practiced: that of a military man of many years, or at least someone who takes himself very seriously. and as an added bonus, it's distorted, as though being filtered through some other device. ]

...So, this thing actually works. I didn't want to believe this could be possible. Then again, none of this seems possible on its own.

[ there's a soft, unconcerned chuckle. ] I will admit, this was not the life after death I had been envisioning. But, if that... "woman" [ because fuck AIs aren't that advanced yet, right? he'd definitely be the first to know if they were. ] was right, there are several others in the same boat as myself. Just from my observations alone, there are hundreds of people on this... "station."

[ a pause. ] If that's the case, I would like to know if anyone has heard of a man named Alex Mercer. Any information would be useful and much appreciated.

My name is Captain Robert Cross. That is all.

[ and the feed cuts. ]
