If you think you’re going to become a danger to others during this upcoming mission, what precautions are you taking?

[yoho, it's the nasally furry girl voice, and it's dry as hell:] Whaddya mean? The ghost said she'd be here to support us? We're definitely safe.

[Responds back in just as dry of a voice]

Yes. It felt very reassuring reading about that.

[rudelanguage]

Longtimers sure do trust her, so I mean surely--

[godsandbats]

But best to have precautions anyway. I suppose we should be grateful we even got a warning about the particles.

[rudelanguage]

Y'all could just agree to stay in your little rooms or whatever if it's that scary for some of ya. Right? [youse guys. not me.]

[godsandbats]

The potential severe paranoia might direct some of us to leave and cause more hurt than help.

[rudelanguage]

Don't y'all just. Talk at each other all day on these ear thingies anyway? Sit there and talk and don't do anything else! [what, like it's hard?]

Or, I dunno, wear a bell.

[godsandbats]

That’s assuming that talking doesn’t escalate into violence while we’re all under the particles’ effects.

[rudelanguage]

[irritably:] Then take up cross-stitch!

[godsandbats]

[Deadpan]

Yes, because working with sharp tools keeps the blood thirst away.

[rudelanguage]

If you're paying proper attention, it does, actually!

[godsandbats]

Explain then.

[rudelanguage]

It! [flub. huff. GOSH!!] It's a focus thing! You know? Like meditation crap. Except you're making something instead of just...thinking about whatever. If you're busy constructing the pattern you're not busy rearranging someone's bone structure.

[godsandbats]

And if it’s vampirism?

[rudelanguage]

[?? ?? ? ?// ???]

What -- you allergic to fabric if you're a blood-drinker? Since when!

[godsandbats]

[Oh for fuck’s sake]

A little arts and crafts isn’t going to do much when might keep thinking he’s surrounded by easier meals and he should take them down before they take him down.

[rudelanguage]

[she scoffs indignantly, assuming this is just a made-up example to be difficult.]

Pick a fuck--frickin' remote-enough spot, get a hobby, and ride it out! Wear a bell! Assign a buddy to stake you in case of emergency! Kill yourself now! Whatever!

[godsandbats]

[Deadpan]

Duly noted.

[rudelanguage]

[sourly:] Yeah, you're welcome.

That'd kind of be any of us trained in combat, especially if we've had to kill before.

I don't know, is there any possibility of people opting into trackers? Mutually, so we can try to have an electronic system to check and verify who's real, who isn't, or what isn't what it seems?

[godsandbats]

It could be a good way to counter whatever hallucinations that might happen. The paranoia and delusions may affect how we perceive the tracking so perhaps there should be safeguards on top of that

[reincarnesiac]

We can leave the uh... okay so I'm usually the one getting tracked, but the control for it? In Aurora's care. Then if we have ways to see it but not directly touch it, we can at least know that much is "true." And the animals are going to be protected elsewhere. So the only things "really" moving should be us, or the hallucinations, right?

[godsandbats]

So we've been told, yes. If Aurora can't stop this mission then perhaps she can aid in other ways. We would still be involved with the mission. It's just that we need preparation.

I'm not a danger to anyone, but there's always the Ulysses option.

[reincarnesiac]

Missions are about us working together and helping each other too. I'm ignoring the part about competing, because it's not helpful.

So we're still doing the mission by helping each other. Even ahead of time.

I'm not exactly the tech person to figure out, I don't know, maybe trackers we can put on our earpieces? But maybe someone here is. Or maybe Aurora can help supply those, and the central console is hers. Then we can access the map and see all our little dots?
