PEACE WEEKEND

[It's your first week here, and you've been offered a fantastic prize for killing someone: an all-expense paid vacation! It's a pretty standard prize as far as reality game shows go.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), this isn't exactly a game show.

It seems that no one has died this weekend, and the deadline for the prize is now expired. There's no announcement from the Overseers to that effect; in fact, none of you have seen either of them since Tuesday. Maybe they'll make a reappearance soon, but for now, it seems that you've got a moment of peace.

Hopefully nothing happens to it.]

Right. We need to figure out a plan, then, for if they don't have escape hatches for everyone.

There should be some way to communicate, too? If we can find that we might be able to call for a transport.

Oh, somewhere to send a message? Like a console?
in4apounding: (let me explain u a thing)

Exactly! Mister Blaze and Miss Petuu would need some way to send for help in an emergency, and if Miss Petuu's device is anything like the scrolls from home it wouldn't be able to broadcast a wide enough signal on its own without some kind of larger transmitter.

[Hmm...]

But what if it can? I mean, where I'm from space travel is only in the early investigatory stages. And here we are, in space.

Maybe the have access higher tech than the kind we're used to?
in4apounding: (well that's just improbable)

Hm. That's a good thought. I guess then the goal becomes getting access to her scroll after all?

... It kinda feels like we're talking ourselves in circles.
