Everyone, this is Dr. Watson. I've made this post filtered away from the Joker. We have limited time and limited resources. My group is already near the entrance to the tunnels on the residential side. We'll look for any explosives on the way down. We're headed toward the hospital. Everyone else, please get out of the tunnels if you can. If not, search where you can, then get inside a building and use whatever's there to try to create a shelter over yourself, something with enough headspace to give you an air pocket if it comes to it. Mattresses work well for that kind of thing in a closet or a bathroom - an enclosed space. We do know these buildings are metal, but even that can come down with enough force.

We also know a few things:

One, items left out overnight seem to get picked up. It's very unlikely any bombs he's placed are ones outside. Just as likely anything not stored in a cabinet or inside something else has been picked up, as well. Mr. Solomons suggested the vents, and I suggested loose floorboards. Probably the best bet on where to find anything.

Two, supplies are limited. If there are any bombs, he likely wouldn't have created many. It's especially true for anything with a timer. This means that anyone in the downtown area is likely to be the most at risk.

Three, he's mad. The Joker is a bloody lunatic. He might be running us 'round to watch us dance, or he might actually have something. Chances are good he doesn't, but it's not something we can count on. If you do find anything like a bomb, your best bet is to get out of the house if you can and into another building. The Admin repairs things that get blown up, I think? It's our best bet to avoid first, dismantle second if we have to.

Report in if you find anything or once you've cleared an area as safe, if you can. Whatever it is he's got planned, there are a hell of a lot more of us than him. Keep an eye out. Contact here if you need help defusing any bombs. I have some experience, and I reckon Kain does, as well.

[The voice that replies is clearly distracted. As if the owner is listening to a conversation elsewhere, as well. Still, Kid was paying enough attention to get the gist of the information, and he isn't particularly fond of what he hears.]

Doctor Watson. I've not seen any physical bombs while-- [There, he's sure he hears yelling. If the video were on, Watson could see Kid look off camera, straining his ears to search for the source of the screaming. When he can't trace it, when the yelling fades to quiet wails, he covers his ears, squeezing his eyes shut. What was he talking about again?] ...not seen anything that looked like a bomb. While downtown. But--I wasn't looking.

I've been downtown. [He presses his hands against his ears tighter when the wailing grows louder. Some small part of him knows it isn't real, but not enough for him to simply ignore the pleas for help.] Since I arrived. All of these shops...look empty.

I've not been looking for bombs, though. [He repeats, not completely aware that he's already said this. Sorry, Watson. At least he really has been looking inside every building he passes.]

I've only just gotten here. I'm trying to get an understanding of the layout of this area. [Another awkward pause, another shrieking cry for help, thirty seconds before he realizes that he's been asked a question. He clears his throat.] No...I'm alone. It's just me. The Professor is...somewhere else. Don't know where. Not a lot of people are downtown.
