[network] @jwatson; video [Morning 383] [open/semi-open] [shadownet]

((OOC: The first and third parts of the message is OPEN. The second part is SEMI-CLOSED to anyone with access to the Shadownet - a text only app created by Winter. It works within the Bunker. Please see this post about Shadownet distribution.

John's death price is that he can't interact with anyone. He won't see/hear messages, so he won't be responding to anything.))


Part 1 - OTA
[John wakes with a start inside his body bag. There's a momentary sense of absolute panic as he claws his way out of it, and gets off the slab he's been lying on. It's a moment to get his bearings and realize that he's in the hospital morgue. That's... not as bad as it could be. And he's fairly certain all of his memories are intact. At least one of the most important ones. John goes for his tablet first.

It doesn't even occur to him that Mary's been silent since he woke up. He can occasionally see her standing off to one side, but other than that, he's focused on the present, not the past. John double-checks the network, but there don't appear to be any new posts. Good. That means he's probably woken up the morning after being killed. As far as inconvenience goes, that's a minor one.]


Everyone, this is Dr. John Watson. Please listen closely. Rhys is in severe danger. His last known location was Building 317 on Dr. House's map. Please, if you're anywhere near there, go and check on him. He was injured during a fight a few days ago and Mr. Beckett attempted to kill him last night. I tried to stop him, but was killed in the fight. I don't know if Beckett succeeded. If Rhys is dead, Beckett may be a danger to others, particularly Enoch. Please watch out for him and please someone check on Rhys and Enoch, physically, if you're able to do so.

[He sends that out and waits for replies. And waits. John gathers his things and leaves the morgue, heading upstairs. When there still isn't a reply, he decides that maybe everyone has... somehow headed to the bunker.

'Or there's something wrong with the network,' Mary suggests. It's the first time she's spoken since John had woken up, and he glances over at her with a furrowed brow before switching on the Shadownet.]


Part 2 (half an hour later) - Shadownet Access Only
Hello? Is anyone there? This is John. There's been a serious incident. Beckett attacked Rhys last night. I died while trying to defend him. Rhys may still be alive and Enoch may be in danger. Please, could someone respond?

[Another half hour goes by as John begins walking. And then another. It's two hours later before he switches over to the regular network again. Mary's close to him now, fingers laced with his free hand.]

Part 3 - OTA
Please, I don't know what's going on, but this is Dr. John Watson. I'm heading toward Residential Zone 3. If anyone can see this message, please respond. [He looks to the side as Mary speaks up, the woman only in his own mind.

'John, I don't know there's anyone there.'

But they have to be there. The whole bloody town can't disappear overnight.

'Why not?' Mary asks.

It's a simple question, but it's absolutely chilling.]


Sherlock? Please, answer me. Alfie? Royce? Bucky? England? Stephen? Tess? Kunsel?

Anyone?

[Whoa, it's Bucky! Peter's a little nervous, but he clears his throat and tries to sound as friendly as possible.]

Yeah, I heard about Rhys, but--this is a death price? Is he blind too?

Not sure, but I don't think so.

[At least, John hadn't mentioned it and he's usually good about laying these things out for people to see.]

I just don't think he can hear us.

I don't like this. It doesn't seem right, he shoulda noticed these messages by now. Even if he can't hear us.

If he was capable of it, then he would have done. But he looks uninjured and not too confused to find shelter, so we have no choice but to wait it out.
zunesareawesome: (not that great)

[personal profile] zunesareawesome 2018-08-07 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
...you're right. [It's said grudgingly.]

Man, I hope he gets over it soon. This...it's a nasty death price.
advanced: (listen)

[personal profile] advanced 2018-08-09 11:43 am (UTC)(link)
[It's not as bad as some, at least John seems capable of caring for himself.]

I've never seen one last too long, he'll be fine.
zunesareawesome: (Brow furrow 4)

[personal profile] zunesareawesome 2018-08-10 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
[That's reassuring enough, at least.]

Yeah? Yeah, that's...good. Real good.

[An awkward pause.]

So you doin' okay too?
advanced: (confused)

[personal profile] advanced 2018-08-11 03:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[He frowns down at his tablet as if that's a trick question.]

Why are you asking?
