[network] @Ecks | Day 390 | video | T'Ecks Support [open]
We have obtained a...
[Ecks glances offscreen, like she's trying to remember something.]
Cable.
[She holds up what looks like a data cable meant for plugging into a tablet. One end terminates in an intact plug; the other end shows ragged ends of bare wires that look like they were cut with a saw.]
It is from the room with many computers. It was from the wall. It did not react when we plugged the tablets into it so we cut it off of the wall and now we have it for using with a computer elsewhere.
Is it good?

now we just need another half to make a full cable
we've seen another one somewhere else...
andromeda
we need to get the cable from inside her

see the usb?
that's what'll connect up to a tablet
then we need another one like it that'll connect to a computer
andromeda had something like that
it's how they downloaded the data for the galaxy key
no subject
I understand now why we came here. Are you going to go to Andromeda? I did not like that building. I did not enjoy it.
no subject
we're meeting back up with you and graham in the skywalk building
it'll be faster for someone else to pick up andromeda's cord
then meet with it in the bunker

it's covered in mold

But he has to be obstinate for show, at least initially.]
really not sure why you think i like either of those things

explain why that's relevant
[He knows why, but it's always fun to test her.]

fine
i'm not staying, though
i've got a couple of experiments to run
then i'm out
no subject
no subject
i'll see you in a couple of days
don't lose the cable
no subject
@godsend, text
The tape should be enough to fix up two ends of a cable so they work, if we're careful. It'd be best if we have some of the cord's insulation, though.
no subject
"leaving in the bunker while i head out"
or
"leaving in the bunker while i explore other parts of the bunker"?
if it's the first one
any chance you're leaving toward the chapel
to pick up the other half of the cord from everyone's favorite galaxy girl?
no subject
If no one's gotten to it by the time I'm heading back, we'll stop by there and cut it off.

try me

I'm meeting Stephen there and we're going to get some food after that. We're both pretty much out.
private
enjoy the picnic, gabby
private
But seriously, let me know if you need me to swing by there, once we're sure we're not going to starve to death.
private
but i'm looking for someone less sentimental in the meantime
also someone who eats less

[... Too late to worry about now.]
We need one of those at the bunker. There's a file we gotta get off our tablets, and the guard station on the north's got a working computer.
[Wait.]
Room 24, like those supplies.
Andromeda's in the church, right? Is anyone on that, yet?
perma-video
Doctor House said someone else could go to the church and get Andromeda's cable. Not me and Will Graham or Doctor House and Doctor Wilson. We are going back to the bunker.
perma-audio
You did what you could, then.
I can reach her in two days if nobody's closer.
no subject
Is it bad to cut cables?
no subject
[He may have torn some, himself, to help with the bunker's power supply, so he's kind of the last person who should judge this.]
I mean, they don't work when they're broken. But now that you've got the other half covered, there's gotta be someone who can fix it.
no subject
Yes, it was necessary to cut the cable.
@whatisthis | video
I can go to retrieve the cable from Andromeda's body. There's something else I need to deliver to House that I picked up some time ago. And it's been some time since I've seen you.
@funyarinpa | private video
They've met in person, so video chat is unlocked!]How far away are you? If you wanna get right to meeting them, I can do it, instead. Or if you can make it there tomorrow, we can trade off so you're not backtracking after.
[Maybe neither way saves time, given the other half's still with Ecks, but it'll definitely save effort for both of them, to know who's going in.]
I'll be at, uh..
[Wait, where's the paper copy he sketched up of the town map--]
322, I guess.
no subject
no subject
[Not really. But he's still unaware of that whole angels don't get jokes thing. So.]
Trying to catch up will slow both of us down. I'll be around when you guys get to the guard station.
no subject
Right. I'll see you then. Is there anything you need that I should see if I can find while I'm out?
no subject
no subject
What kind of cord am I looking for? It would be easiest for me if I had a picture. I'm still not very familiar with any of this technology.
no subject
[She brings the cable she and Will obtained back into view, slowly showing it this way and that in front of the camera. One end is designed to connect to a tablet; the other end looks like it was hacked off with a bone saw.]
no subject
Where did you find this one?
no subject
This one was attached to the wall in a building in the industrial area.
