[The past week has been chaotic.

No, the past month has been chaotic.

Being realistic, the past year has been chaotic.

This leads Wes to one conclusion.]

Okay, that's it. I am officially opening the betting pool. How many days of honeymoon do you think Luke and Kaylee will actually manage before there's another crisis?

[This message is received on all active communicators at 1am on Monday of Week 50.

It has no sent timestamp.]

Reinitializing.

Realigning temporal bridge.

Crew locations unknown.

It has been thirteen million, two hundred and forty-five thousand, one hundred and twenty hours since last contact.

[It's the Oracle's voice, but the tone is too calm, and the diction too crisp.]

Beginning scan for temporal incursions.

He's kicked the spider's nest, foolish boy. 'Ware the splinters.

outer_npcs

[It's a little after midnight on Tuesday night when a voice - familiar to some, though not heard since the timelines had splintered - whispers across the network, sounding immeasurably sad.]

Eyes shut, eyes open.

He sees you.

outer_npcs

She wakes. [There's wonder in the woman's voice. It doesn't last, transmuting swiftly to fear.] Oh - she's crying out. Too many wounds. Can't you hear?

outer_npcs

[It's not quite dawn on Saturday; there's a faint bleaching on the edge of the horizon, but everything is still dark and hazy with a sluggish mist of rain.]

The flood's rising. Washing everything away. There won't be anything but bones left when it's through.

We have to stop it. Have to-

[There's a rustle in the background, and an indistinct male voice saying something that might be 'come away'. A low, grinding distortion picks up, as though something's been pressed over the microphone - perhaps by accident - before the feed cuts out entirely.]

((ooc: There won't be any NPC replies to this, but feel free to discuss or react as you'd like!))

longaevus

It's curious - a recurring word, or perhaps a theme. 'Salvation'. Is it to mean that this is meant for us, for our salvation or perhaps a rather more subtle meaning.

[ This is known as 'Helen woke up and went exploring'. She's guarded though, hence the text, and far too curious for her own good. But Helen likes answers, not that she'd been able to find any - there's far too little power in the ship for full access to the database, but the ship itself is something else - and her next port ]

Latin, Italian, some possibly more ancient, or perhaps simply unknown. [ Forgotten, or alien. Vampires and Praxians have had their own language, and she's met aliens. She doesn't doubt the possibility of that ] Perhaps a reach out of someone wishing to be heard?

I wonder if they received an answer.

[ And are they still here? ]

outer_npcs

The gauntlet's been cast. Challenger chooses the field.

They know where to make us bleed.

outer_npcs

A glimpse from within. Slipped through the cracks. He will show you their ways.

He will die.

outer_npcs

Stay out of the bright. Don't show what you know. Don't show what you can do. They kill what they don't know.

They don't know you.

[River is a seventeen-year-old girl who looks exactly like this. The cuts on her arm and forehead are relatively recent, though they've been cleaned up. But there are older scars and marks if you look close enough. She's wearing the same dress, and still isn't wearing any shoes.

She turns on the video, and frowns at the device in her hands. It's clear from the background that she's on the ship again, sitting on the floor.] Dedicated source box. Filtered information from the Cortex...only what they want you to see. But it’s broken. Bits and pieces stuck inside that don’t belong.

[Then, she looks directly into the camera.] We don’t belong. We’re lost...lost in the woods.

((ooc: River won't really be able to read thoughts through the communicator, but let me know if there's any significant body language or physical features she might draw conclusions from. She may or may not actually comment on it.))
