Spinning Compass Comunications

[OoC: takes place during this]

Ring ring!

[Radio]

Hello! This is Sirius. Can anyone help me please? I am doing my arithmancy prep and one question is why the number 3.14159 has special magic properties. I know the properties of 3, but not 3.14159. It is a strange number to pick.

[OoC: Backdated until just after Abra's request]

( Jack and Dan Torrance, you have one new message )

( Sarah and Miguel, you have one new message )

Can you change people's ages on purpose and control when they get back to their right age?

Could you make me old an adult for a few days and then my age again?

[OoC - sent around the time Gen saw and reacted to John's post on the network]

What's wrong? What is it?

To her mother and grandfather.

Did either of you get used to this?

Hi.

Tommy

Do you have my body?

( Desmond, you have one (1) new message )

Still working on the time thing, huh?

"-at the shock, Tommy?! I told you t-"

"No. No, it's okay. Are you okay? I'm okay"

"Of course you're okay, it was electricity, bit-head. And I'm okay. I'll just check Lyla wasn't fried."

"Hello, Miguel. You appear to be an adult again, welcome back. Using the arbitrary dating system in use on the station, it's October 1st, 2018 an-"

"What. The. Shock."

"It's when?"

"Hello, Tommy Sully. You have grown older also. It's October 1st, 2018."

"Oh, crap."

"I will let Sarah know what has happened. Although Miguel's phone is broadcasting this entire conversation over the network, so she may already know."

"Crap."

"I'm going to throttle you, Sully! No, I'll put you out an airlock. You said this was theoretical!"

"Oh, come on, this is no worse than the time when we di-"

[the phone cuts off at this point]

-ahahaha Rawm, stop stop, no, I just... I just, I stood up and my legs didn't, that's all. I swear... Ah, no, sparks're tickly...

[OoC: Tommy's speech is a bit slurred and not really like himself at all]

There is a child alone on the third wheel.  She was last seen running towards location..  She is approximately height tall, has long dark hair, dark eyes, wearing a pink dress and leggings.  There is an electrical problem in this section.  The lights are out and there were sparks.  

[A pause.]

I think she's a new arrival. I hate to think of her alone, especially if it's unsafe in this section. I'm sending a photo of her to all phones and I will continue looking.

[A photo of Zu running away is sent to all phones]

[Group text to All the Sully Brothers, Sisters, and Little Izzy (and adopted Sullys)]

I know losing Mom is a huge blow. But our sister-in-law needs us. She lost JR and two of her babies, not the diapered ones they're still there. You know the protocol. Onsies, and Ice cream. At JRs. We need each other now more than ever.

is it sad we have a protocol for this?

[Tom Sr.]

Daddy?

[Ashley]

I'm so so very sorry. We're meeting at your Mom's, is there anything specific you need or want?

[Uncle Jakes (except the old one)]

I think Daddy's going to need you guys. ASAP. I'm collecting everybody else at JR's, if you want to bring him.

[Old Uncle Jake and Aunt (older) Suni]

Is there anything you and Aunt Suni need or want? Are you feeling up to coming to JR's for cuddles, onsies, and Ice Cream?

[Greg]

Hi. Are you okay?

[Mr Darcy]

First I'd like to apologize that this will be how we're meeting. I'm Sarah, Ashley's Aunt, and Miguel's significant other. We've had a bit of a tragedy this morning. Ashley's twin, TK, and her Baby Sister, Addie, have vanished. I know it will help Ashley cope greatly if you join us in a bit of a strange gathering.

I hope you get this

[Bobby]

We're doing onsies and ice cream, do you want to come? I have just finished finding wards that will help, and have them ready for use.

[Aunt Suni]

We're gathering at Shepard's and JR's. With Onesies and Ice cream, do you want to come and bring the babies?

[Twin Rachel]

I know you got the everybody text... But Richie's gone too.

[Miguel]

This never gets easier. Never. It's bad this time.

[Henry]

Are you okay?

Hello Tommy, my name is Mark Darcy and I’ve just arrived. I’m talking to Isabel right now and she says I’ve to ask you if I want to know where exactly we are? Thanks.

( Tom Sully, you have new message )

So what did Dr. Morgan say about your pain issue? And what hurt?

-wm, have you seen my painkillers?

No, the stronger ones. [the post cuts off suddenly after that]

[Tommy is sending this out on a frequency he'd noticed was used a lot on his mom and dad's ship. Variants on this have been repeated all day]

Errant Venture, please come in. Errant Venture, hello? Can you hear me? Errant Venture, do you read me?

I hate this place at times. Change my gender, fine, screw with people's ages, fine. Quit taking my family away from me!

[A few sharp wheezing breaths were loud over the CB. But the voice was a whispered gasp.]

I can't breathe.

Okay what's with the 2001 Space Odyssey vibe?
