Spren of Kindness Posted December 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2021 The noise that comes through the speaker is an unholy mix of static that makes Martin's brain hurt. "'Lo, Nahl," he offers. "'S me." The slurring of the words is the signal that she insists on. Dead silence from the other end. "I know you can track my signal. I need a pickup - me and my crew." "I thought you worked alone, soldier boy," Nahl finally says. Even through the remainder of the static, her voice sounds like ice. Martin tries his best not to react to the jibe. "Times change, Nahl. You in or not?" "Eight hours." The line goes dead. Martin slumps against the wall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Channelknight Fadran Posted December 21, 2021 Report Share Posted December 21, 2021 Ayia took out one of her staffs, Stabilizing it by the wall to sit on. She sat back, holding the back of her head in her hands and relaxing. The Earth clothing was more comfortable than she expected: though she didn't know that pants could be made of genes, nor that straps could be made of spaghetti (whatever that was). The shoes were also really nice: uniform, laced, and well-balanced. Apparently they mass-produced them here. Well... nothing much left to do now. She reached up, pulled a small notebook (pen included) out of thin air, and began to write in her journal. Quote I have no problem with timeskipping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
