so...we would speak through the cans? i would think the miscommunications would be worse using such a method.

apparently someone saw someone else naked, and he thought that they wanted to see him naked too, i think. it was very confusing. then he got upset with me. i'm not sure why. all i said was that it was a relief that no one wanted to see him naked.

i'll try my best. i'm not sure who to believe anymore.
And I'm between Medical and the Observation Deck. Everyone seems in higher spirits now so I figured a well-deserve break was in order. Come and keep me company for a few minutes, will you?
Whoa slow your roll barbara walters one thing at a time

uh 1. no point, my file's there for everyone to see, the secret's out. 2. i didn't, a few had died before that or weren't there. There was still a lot of them though.
FROM: parker.peter@cdc.org
3. i cannot sadly 4. and actually no i don't think I would, i don't think they'd have much to say
FROM: parker.peter@cdc.org
5. I have no clue. I remember waking up on a stretcher and there was a lady asking me if i would save everyone, and i said yes but I was really cold and delirious and didn't really get what was going on
FROM: parker.peter@cdc.org
I wasn't sure if I'd actually died or not for a bit until I got here and it said so in the file. 6. Nope, would not recommend sleeping on the ceiling. I have to stick to things intentionally. I sleep on a bed like regular people
Actually it's a relatively workable short range sound transmission. Metal reverberates and the string carries those vibrations to the other end, and the person would press the can to their ear and hear the message

That said I was being totally facetious. I just want these dumb blackglasses to work again
FROM: parker.peter@cdc.org
why would he assume they wanted him naked too? I wouldn't worry about him being upset to be honest. He'll get over it.
FROM: parker.peter@cdc.org
well with the amount of misdirection and confusion today maybe it's best to hold off on taking anything seriously until the network works again
dammit brenda why is she so cute i hate you so much
that...sounds very impressive. i'm afraid science and technology aren't my forte---they're not very advanced where i'm from. just utilizing this device never ceases to both amaze and discomfort me slightly.
FROM: akame@cdc.org
but i agree with you. it's definitely crucial, as well as useful.
when it's working properly.
FROM: akame@cdc.org
maybe he actually likes the person, but is being roundabout toward them. either way, i feel like him just telling them would've been fine, instead of involving nudity.
i hope so. i really think he should resolve any unresolved issues with the person first, though.
FROM: akame@cdc.org
perhaps you're right.
since you brought it up, has anyone said strange things about you because of this mess?
I pledged to give my heart to humanity. I'm not taking that back. I just never expected it would come at the cost of anyone but myself.
FROM: bott.marco@cdc.org
Are they really that different from us?
FROM: bott.marco@cdc.org
I didn't know that. I thought these messages were private. Thank you, Peter. There's just a lot that's hard to make sense of right now. It's hard to know where to stand in all of this.
I hope you didn't have to pay for collateral damage each time.

Don't leave me waiting too long.
[When Peter finds her Hange will be leaning back against the wall, a cloth wrapped firmly around her nose and mouth in some makeshift attempt not to spread her own sickness around whenever she possibly could. Like everyone who'd been on their feet nonstop, the bags under her eyes are nearly smudged black, but her posture will remain calm and relaxed aside from the occasional cough.
Catching sight of him through her peripheral, Hange offers him a friendly wave before pushing herself off the wall.]
So how many people have you had to show your balls to so far?
That so? If you ever have any questions you can hit me up. I'm pretty decent with the technobabble stuff. Maybe not space age, but I'll help where I can.
FROM: parker.peter@cdc.org
Yeah if he winds up black and blue tomorrow we'll know the outcome of this whole shebang. Poor dude.
FROM: parker.peter@cdc.org
Not that I am currently aware of. Let me know if there is
I'm sixteen now. Got my powers about a year, year and a half ago? And no problem, I'm used to this. Every time I had to explain this i get a hundred questions
FROM: parker.peter@cdc.org
Nice to meet you too, though. Don't hesitate to hit me up if you need anything.
