[A sense of hesitation followed neatly by impatience--]

What makes somebody a god?

I mean, if magic exists... they could just be a wizard or whatever, right? Like a really powerful wizard.

Talking about this feels so fucking stupid.

[ It's only a few days into the month, and her voice, when it filters through, is rough and edged with exhaustion. She gets to the point quickly despite the distant flutter of discomfort at bringing attention to herself this way. ] I've got a couple of questions for people.

One: how many of you died in the dream? You know, to that... thing—the one made out of all those freaky Vessel bits mashed together. [ Her tone carries a dry bite, but beneath that, the memory of it clearly unsettles her. ] Two: did anyone else see a memory before waking up of... I don't know, One, Espera, and the rest of that bunch.

[ Without warning, she pushes the memory through the Murmur. ] That's what I saw. Not really sure why I saw it, but... [ There it is.

There's another pause, long enough that it's obvious she's hesitating. Then: ]
Lastly... How many of you have dealt with gods back home? Ever kill one?

Totally unrelated to our current situation. Obviously. [ MMHMM ]

[ There's nothing remarkable about Viktor's first thought intentionally shared through the Murmur other than this: JAYCE TALIS AND JINX OF ZAUN CANNOT PERCEIVE THIS MESSAGE. For all others, Viktor's accented voice can be heard, soft but distinctly metallic, resonating through the shared consciousness of all who open their minds to the connection. ]

I'm looking for anyone who has experience in robotic engineering, mechanical maintenance, medical prostheses, or surgery and amputation.

[ While he doesn't offer any context, his tone is even and calm as if he's putting out a general want ad rather than a cry for help. It's a curiosity, but a focused one that is searching for results. ]

Also, if anyone has located a hospital or any other facilities that might have medical supplies, a robotics lab, or any business that requires mechanical tools, I'm looking for some specific equipment.

Oh, and my name is Viktor. Some of you may be familiar with my... friend, Jayce Talis. [ There is a weighty pause before the word friend. ] I'd appreciate no one mentioning this to him.

Well, sun's been out; that's new. If you haven't been here long, don't get used to it.

[ That sounds less like a threat and cleaves closer to a PSA, tone business-like in the way that small talk can be. It remains so as he continues, unruffled by all the strangeness both new and old inhabitants have likely been experiencing since they woke from the dream. ]

As our—host—has not been particularly selective, I've noticed not everyone has even basic combat experience. While we've got light to work by, it may be worth pooling expertise. If you're interested in volunteering to teach, let me know what your preference is. And if you're one of the many who'd like to learn or brush up, feel free to contact me as well. I can manage the initial coordination process.

[ You know, for anyone who hates administrative crap. ]

Oh, one last thing: if you're having trouble telling dreaming from reality, at any point, come talk to me. This place doesn't make it easy.

Hey. To anyone I haven't spoken to before, my name is Megumi Fushiguro.

You've probably already noticed that we're linked by thoughts here. You might have also noticed that it's not only words -- you can project emotions and memories this way, too. Something else you should know is that we're not limited to communicating in the present moment; it's possible to find and revisit prior exchanges.

It may help if you think of this as a big tangle of threads. If you know the one you want, and you can take ahold of it, it's just a matter of following it back.

I tell you this so I can call your attention to this.

I've been trying to track everything we've learned -- about this place, about how it got this way. Records from witnesses to whatever happened here before we arrived. Some general advisories about the hazards we face, also.

If you see anything I've missed, I'd appreciate if you could point me to it. I try to keep an ear out, but there's only one of me.

Lortel and I have been discussing getting this all committed to hard copy, also, once we figure out how to deal with the language barrier. [ Verbal and Murmur communication has a way of making itself understood regardless, but they've found that text doesn't do the same. ] I doubt I need to point out the flaws in keeping everything we know strictly as a mental record. [ Especially when Sleep just loves to fuck with their heads! ]

I guess that's it for now.
