[Okay. This isn't hard. He's stuck here... and... there's no real way back so the best option is to work with this ALASTAIR ... clan? Clan. In order to fix issues in different places...

... and this ear cuff will let him talk to people but he has no idea how. Jewelry doesn't let you talk to people?? Talking to people lets you talk to people??

Carefully and very tentatively, like he's worried the communicator is about to leap out at him and grab him, Yukimura sets the little ear cuff communicator on the ground in front of him and crouches down in so he's eye level with it. Enjoy the overabundance of red.]


...

[He takes a deep breath. He was told he could talk to people, but he can't see anyone so... he'll have to speak loudly so he can be heard.

Brace yourself, Futurology.]



HELLO?

[... Nothing.]


HELLO, ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAR ME THROUGH THIS PIECE OF JEWELRY?

[Still nothing?? This is concerning him. Is he alone here, other than the man who had spoken to him when he first arrived? What should he do in this situation? Begin a scouting mission to search out any signs of life? Or should he continue shouting through this piece of jewelry he doesn't really believe is doing what he was told it would do.

...

Option B it is.]


I AM WORRIED THAT THIS JEWELRY IS NOT DOING WHAT I WAS TOLD IT WOULD, AND THAT I WILL FIND MYSELF AT A COMMUNICATION DISADVANTAGE IF THIS DOES NOT WORK. CAN ANYONE HEAR ME? [He reaches out and taps on the side of the cuff, shaking the image rather violently.] ANYBODY?

[TAP. TAP. TAP.

BEEP.]


... [He leans forwards, almost conspiratorially and whispers....] Hello?

[... Someone help this poor, unsuspecting loser out. Please. For the sake of your eardrums if nothing else.]

[ don't fourthwall me? ]

I suppose that was their intent all along! [ no, obvs it's for dance apps. ]

Apart from the technology, have you been settling in well?

Oh, I'm glad! [ especially considering most others have not been having a great time of it... ] Please don't hesitate to let me know if you need any help or have any questions... I'm not all that qualified, but I can try my best!

[ a pause. ]

Oh, sorry — my name is Olivia!

It's very nice to meet you, too, Mr. Sanada. But please — that offer is the least I could do... It's never easy, being thrown into such a new and overwhelming situation like this.

Yes, I agree!

[ granted, she isn't quite as good with keeping her optimism up as much as he seems to be, but she'll definitely keep trying! and it's nice to know she won't be alone. ]
winces: (( five ))

[personal profile] winces 2016-05-06 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, exactly!

[ a pause ]

...um. What goal is that...?
winces: (( twelve ))

[personal profile] winces 2016-05-09 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh... well... I don't think ALASTAIR has really given us any specifications...
winces: (( eleven ))

[personal profile] winces 2016-05-09 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I — suppose.

[ but that still comes down to: what goal?

still, she thinks it might be rude to keep asking such things of someone who has just arrived, and so she simply smiles politely, nodding. ]


Good luck, then, Mr. Sanada.
