AS THE WAR THAWS...

[When the imPorts open their comms, they will come face to face with an uncharacteristic image, ensuring that even imPorts who attempt to ignore broadcasts at large will see it. This is, after all, relevant to each and every imPort.

The image is nothing more than a black screen with white text superimposed on it: STATE OF NATIONAL EMERGENCY.

After a moment, the image will be quickly replaced by one of L. Chases, seated at her desk, hands folded in front of her. Her expression may be grim, but it is firm, and there is nothing but ferocity behind her stare.]


Attention all imPorts, [she starts off, voice crisp and clear.]

We are now in a state of national emergency. As of January 20th, the USSR has officially declared war on the United States, effectively endangering not only the people of America, but the world as a whole. In this time of need there is a strong chance we may have to call upon you, imPorts, to do your duty in protecting your own.

As a part of this declaration of war, the USSR has abducted approximately fifty imPorts, a number which may yet continue to grow. We do not yet know how this was accomplished, but you have our word that our intelligence is active and ready to uncover what form of technology could abduct you from afar.

We are currently in talks with foreign aid and the UN. Retaliation is a risky prospect, but I assure you, we will retaliate. That time draws near, and when it does, we will be asking for your assistance.

Until then, stay aware, alert, and cautious, imPorts. We cannot afford to lose any more of you, and more importantly, your fellows cannot afford it.

[And with that, her broadcast ends. There will be no replies.]

Alright...

[That... makes it sound worse than Joaquin even imagined. Okay, now he's the one trying not to panic!]

Alright, okay, alright so! Ah... [he's scrambling] would it bother you if I came over to the lab to check up on y-your work to see how things are going? I'm definitely interested in knowing how close we are to finding everyone!

[Pretty smooth save there, if he could say so himself.]

[IT'S REALLY NOT.. But Hermann will overlook it]

The lab is always open. You're free to visit, but don't hope for too much during the first few days. I also don't expect to be particularly great company.

No, I, uh, I can understand that.

Maybe I'll bring Manolo along sometime, too. I'm sure he'd be glad to see you again. Maybe play you some music to help you work. [Or sleep.]
mathemagier: go bother someone else (Owen; Really not interested)

[personal profile] mathemagier 2016-01-22 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, that may be alright. So long as neither of you prove distracting.

Right. Okay then...

[A soft sigh. His voice gets a bit gentler.]

I guess I'll let you get to work, then. Take care of yourself, Hermann. I'll see you in a day or so, okay?
mathemagier: and try to sound less like an idiot (Repeat that please)

[personal profile] mathemagier 2016-01-22 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Whereas Hermann's tone is brisk and edged with impatience]

Yes, thank you. I'll see you then.
