Approximately how often have you traveled in a large group and encountered nothing?

[swatsflies]

Hmmm.
Total? About eighty days of traveling with a group and not encountering anything.
It's about once every couple of weeks we encounter something.
It happened more frequently right after we woke up in different places.
Now it's been about twenty days since the last encounter.

[devoutish]

How big is your group?

[swatsflies]

Four.
Five if you count the cat.

[devoutish]

Probably not.

[But who knows?]

[swatsflies]

He's pretty fat. I think he counts for at least a small person.

[ Sending a picture of Mochi. ]

We all have the beacon app turned on.
Not by choice.

[circumsutus]

Why haven't you eaten the cat yet?

[swatsflies]

WHAT NO
No one is eating Mochi.
He's part of the team.

[circumsutus]

He's eating your food and only contributing small amounts of body heat and emotional comfort.

[swatsflies]

What's wrong with that?
He's still providing warmth.
Besides he belonged to a friend of ours.
We're holding on to him until he comes back.

[circumsutus]

Did he arrive with your friend?

[swatsflies]

Friend or his brother.
I never met his brother, but he used to travel with the group before I joined.

Not here

[rattlingthestars]

NO

[devoutish]

How did it get turned on?

[And how do you keep a cat alive here, holy shit.]

[swatsflies]

[ A lot of care and rations. ]

We made a bomb and tried to blow open a locked door.
Don't think the admin liked us very much after that.

[ It was super cool though! ]

[devoutish]

[Interesting.]

What else gets the beacons forcibly turned on?

[swatsflies]

Breaking toys I think.
Angel and Rhys have theirs turned on.
Oh and being a murdering asshole does too.
Or just an asshole. I think G.H. has his on.

[devoutish]

[Huh. Wait.]

Can you have your beacon on without knowing about it?

[swatsflies]

Yeah, we didn't know ours was turned on until the admin gave the option for everyone to turn it on or off.
We found it was on and we couldn't turn it off.
Angel didn't know hers was turned on either.

[ Going to send this his way ]

[rubikscomplex]

i called shelley derricks out on lying to us when she was possessing quark
i was nice about it until she got bitchy, dude

[Nice for him, anyway.]

[circumsutus]

And that was enough to have your beacon activated?

[swatsflies]

Thanks for the correction, man.
