WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?! [Okay wow Angel knows what she's about capslocking is the most cathartic.] I don't know a damned thing about nanomachines and protocols. I don't understand this God damned puzzle. The only thing I can do is go. I am not sitting down and giving up!

[ it just occurred to me that they're obvs both just standing outside the bunker angrytexting at each other like fucking tools and I'm going to die.

I mean uh, ]

At least make a proper plan before you do go!!
There's no use in randomly wandering around looking for her without
Iunno
a list of locations? A timeframe for when you should give up and come back if you do find her?? Geez!!

text -> action

[bookofnope]

I didn't say I was just goi [Oh for the love of everything.

He's just gonna. Go around the corner. Past the doorway. Hi.]

Did I say I was just going to dramatically storm off, possibly while texting something about my lone wolf spirit that cannot be contained?

[phaseshifter]

[ Angel just kind of. Peers at him over the top of her tablet like some kind of texting gremlin. ]

 

 

It was implied.

Well. I suppose I do have a bit of a history. Of drama. [IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY OKAY.]

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to - well. I'm sure you understand things are, in fact, dramatic.

[phaseshifter]

When aren't things dramatic? Though I agree this is, um. A lot. Even for us.

[ That's a collective us. EVERYONE. ANGEL AND BECKETT ARE NO MORE DRAMATIC THAN ANYONE ELSE OK SHUT UP ]

Chasing after her just seems - Iunno, I mean. She can just hover over the snow, dude, so she gets around way faster than us.

[bookofnope]

Maybe a little a lot. [Yaaaay let's dance around The Thing! We're being very pragmatic now instead. No emotions!!]

I wasn't thinking of chasing her as such. Perhaps a... grid pattern search? If a few of us work together. Covering terrain. I don't suppose she has any way of feeling or knowing if anything... drastic happens to anyone.

[phaseshifter]

She doesn't. Um, as far as I know. I suppose if she did she'd be here already, huh?

Maybe we should send out smoke signals. In binary.

[bookofnope]

[In theory this is a joke. In practice, Beckett looks... pensive.]

The weather's... reasonable for it?

[phaseshifter]

[ beckett PLS ]

If I know me - and I do - if I saw smoke I'd stay away in case the flames got to the slag dripping out of me and burned the entire bunker to the ground.

...Though maybe if we get really desperate we could try burning a building a little further out. That might make her come and check that we're still okay.
