Things seem to be getting quite a bit more dangerous. Is everyone alright and accounted for?

[It's pretty clear that by 'everyone' he means 'Hanna Falk Cross' very specifically amongst that 'everyone.]

[There's a pause, and then:]

We need to get a handle on what's happening. Work out a system for dealing with it...

So what are you suggesting?

[the tone very much indicates that unless you've got a solid plan, he's not wasting his time listening to you]

[idkmybffhanna]

[Suggesting? He doesn't know; it was more a thought that someone else should get on that kind of thing]

[But fine, if you want him to give an idea... well, he'll think about all the science fiction novels he's read then. Works for Hanna. Sometimes. Maybe. He tries to hide the hesitance in his voice, but on the other hand he really doesn't want more people get hurt, and no one else has suggested anything...]

Get people into small groups. Teams. Minimum size of two. Groups must stick together at all times; no wandering off on your own. One person needs to be on the communicators at all times as well. If anything goes wrong, report it to the network as soon as it happens. Also, have everyone try to stay within the same zone of the station, no sense getting spread out across the whole thing

I'm not walking around with a buddy chained to my leg, constantly reporting in, and I'll go where I damn well please.

But if I find one of these logs you're talking about, I'll bring it to you. What kinda places have you been finding them?

[idkmybffhanna]

Very well. It was merely a suggestion.

They seem to occur only in the most detailed holographic areas... not the ones from the game, the ones that are inside.

[windowsftl]

Is there even anything we can do about all this?

If the station's gone nutso, what can we really do?

[Audio]

[idkmybffhanna]

Stick together. Don't panic. Try to find some way to survive this and perhaps solve the problem.

[Audio]

[windowsftl]

If that's so, then I want to help. Will you let me?

[Audio]

[idkmybffhanna]

Of course.

The SPARTANs are trying to get one of the generators back up and rig it to be independent of the main system.

I think... maybe it would be a good idea to get everyone in one area, something that still has power and heat. If the life support or gravity starts failing, we're gonna be fucked without equipment.

[idkmybffhanna]

Both of those are sound ideas. Do you have any ideas for a good area...?

[ Hanna sounds more startled than usual. And his voice seems rougher somehow. ]

Um, yeah. A plan sounds good.

✖ { voice ; }

[idkmybffhanna]

[zombie on the other hand sounds... ... neutral, as usual; but if you know him well you can tell that he's relieved]

I'll repeat what I told to someone over an encrypted channel... I think perhaps we could organize into small groups of two or more and try to gather in the lighted areas. Nobody leaves without a partner. We try to compile information on phenomena around the station.

... for instance, I couldn't get out of this one room until I activated an account with that roleplaying game.

[idkmybffzombie]

O-oh, what class did you make?

[ tries to sound casualllll. ]

✖ { voice ; }

[idkmybffhanna]

... fighter, specializing in hammers and other bludgeoning weapons. Why?

[notsoloyal]

Have you attempted anything thus far?

[idkmybffhanna]

I've discovered that creating an account with the station's MMORPG game lets you interact with the holograms, and I'm trying to get people to organize into small groups, but that is all I've been able to accomplish.

[notsoloyal]

Are you aware if there is another way around things, aside from creating an account?

[idkmybffhanna]

... no.
