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.]

Right, right, you should always help family no matter what!

[ What else even is there besides family? ]

Nice to meet you too, Mabel!! You're the first person I met whose family's here too! Can I ask about them, is it okay...?

[She nods.]

Yeah! I've got my two great uncles, Ford and Stan, and my twin brother Dipper! I don't think anyone else has their family here, not anyone I know at least...
jyuced: (please do Not make this into a meme)

[personal profile] jyuced 2016-01-24 08:22 am (UTC)(link)
Whoa, a twin brother! That's so lucky!! It's kinda hard to be separated when you're twins.

[ He pauses for a moment, thinking. ]

If they're that old, we'd better find your great uncles right away too! Do you need any help?
glitterateur: sugarplums (Just gotta give him something to chase.)

[Mabel figures repeating the obvious (that it's so, so, sooo hard) would be silly even for her, just noting to ask him about his family later. There's a story there! For now she just looks surprised and then grateful.]

Uh-- yeah! If you can! I'm not too worried about Stan, he's old and gross but crazy levels of tough. But I still wanna rescue everyone as soon as possible and I probably can't do it all alone.
jyuced: (but her aim is getting better!)

[ They can totally talk all about their weird brothers when all this is over. ]

Yeah! I wanted to help out anyway, so I'll do my best! [ He points finger-guns with both hands. ] It'll be way better having something to look for! I still don't really get what's going on...
glitterateur: aces (Reh-reh yourself motherfucker.)

It's all weird politics stuff! With communists and Russia? I dunno it's all waaay different than it is at home. [A convenient excuse to cover up how little attention she's paid to any of it.] But don't worry about that! As long as you know who kidnapped who then you're set.
jyuced: (matsus is the same)

[personal profile] jyuced 2016-02-01 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Right, right, it's so weird! Maybe I read something about that stuff in high school? But it was way different though, I'm pretty sure!

[ He has less of an excuse for historical ignorance in general, especially since he'd probably be in the same boat as Mabel even if he hadn't just gotten here. Politics are confusing and a drag, though! ]

Okay, got it! Oh, and we didn't kidnap anyone, right?
glitterateur: sugarplums (that is some fatherly shit)

[personal profile] glitterateur 2016-02-02 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
[In high school? Like, he's finished high school? Like he's an adult? This revelation seems weird and possibly fake.]

Right! We're the good guys and didn't kidnap anyone. Mostly. The porter kind of did? But that's a totally different thing.

[ Coming up next on Ripley's Believe It Or Not! ]

Totally! Totally, it's way different! It's super fun around here and there's not even a ransom. [ Therefore, doesn't count. ] So did you guys all show up together?
glitterateur: sugarplums (Just gotta give him something to chase.)

[personal profile] glitterateur 2016-02-07 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope! First it was me and then a year later my family showed up. --so if you've got family you're waiting for then they might show up too! You just have to be patient.
jyuced: (044)

[personal profile] jyuced 2016-02-09 10:40 am (UTC)(link)
Whoa -- so it's like a surprise! Awesome news, awesome, that's way better than I thought! Maybe I'll be a total expert by then, you know?! Was that part fun?
glitterateur: sugarplums (Andre! get us some horses.)

[personal profile] glitterateur 2016-02-09 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
A little bit fun! ...okay a lot of fun. Impressing people with your super knowledge is the best!

[personal profile] jyuced 2016-02-10 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, yeah! And if you've been here an entire year then you must know all kinds of important stuff!
