KY321B; voice; night 007

[ It’s the dead of night when the broadcasts start—short, choppy bursts initially, static interspersed with the occasional snatches of a woman’s voice against the low susurrus of waves on sand. It’s several long moments before they resolve into an actual message. ]

—anyone there? Please, anyone—I don’t care who you are, just say something!

[ There’s a clear edge of desperation in her voice and it’s no wonder; Zam had woken up pressed against a sand dune in the pitch black night, her last memory being of her own untimely murder. She’d thought she was buried at first, then in hell—and then she’d noticed the radio clutched in her one remaining hand. Then came the struggle of trying to figure out what it was and how to operate it one-handed in the dark and—suffice to say, she is experiencing a lot of stress at the moment. ]

Does this thing even work? [ More static as Zam starts blindly pressing buttons in the dark. ]anyone receiving?

I can't argue with that.

You could. Not like anybody could stop you. Might be faster just to get it from me, though. All I'm asking in return is that you report back and tell me what he says.

My order??? ♥ ♥ ♥ What do I owe you?

Well, if it was there to make me question it, then it worked! But I have faith in you. ^_~ Good luck!

All right, fair deal. I'll let you know if I find anything out. Probably be a couple days before I try. Gotta think of a strategic approach here.

You don't owe me anything. It wasn't hard to make. I've made cosmetics before, so this wasn't really far off from that.


[ Even out loud, this would sound casual. ]

Maybe by the time you make it here, I'll have more soap too. We're all ten billion percent in need of it.

I'll send you my friend's callsign privately. Can't post it here on a public channel. You understand.

Oh, Senchito, is there anything you can't do?
[ Out loud, you could probably hear the slightly bemused but mostly admiring wonder! ]

Yeah I understand.

There's lots I can't do. I'm just a scientist. I have a lot of knowledge on how things work and how to make stuff stored right in my brain. That's what I'm good at.

Then I'm glad we have someone good at what you're good at with us.
