[He nods and he tugs up his hoody sleeve, showing off the black wrap. He unties it from his arm and holds out a specific section.]
[Its nearly impossible to tell, the device still able to bend and twist with the fabric with nothing more than slightly more tension, but when he taps it, a stylized T lighting up.] I can put it into any piece of clothing.
[He nods and takes the scarf, and pulling away from him. Mechanical purple hands form, as do other tools as he expands out the fabric and its kind of like watching an embroidering machine go to work, needle like tools moving the beacon slash communicator from the wrap to the scarf.]
I'll need a few days to make the wrist beacons, but this can connect to any of my tech regardless. I need to make some for Eve and Korone too.
Probably Wylan as well, he likes to get into trouble.
But a tap allows it to open up communication with any connected devices as well. Double tap is off. Triple is mute. And hold is distress.
It only vibrates when distressed, I have been told audible confirmation was a terrible idea in practice.
Exactly. The whole reason I made the trackers in the first place is because dad got kidnapped and we only found him in time is because he used to date a mob boss and she liked him enough to not demand a deal. For once. [Big Mama deals are not deals any of them want to be in.] So. Trackers.
They're a lot better if someone isn't conscious. General life signs, heart rate, any extreme changes in ambient temperature, and of course location, but... [He waves a hand in the air.] They get weird about it like all of my supposedly 'invasive practices' hadn't been useful everytime they found out about them. We can't call the cops for help, I'm just being proactive!
[ chuuuuckle ] Hey, whatever works. I've been accused of being invasive too, doesn't bother me a bit. [ He'll just keep right on spying and teleporting. The eavesdropping he mostly can't help, but. ]
It takes at least three passwords to get into the program and a biometric scan, with oscillating firewalls that would take a billion and one genius to hack through.
Of course. They give emergency alerts when states when gone critical, either heart or temperature, which I'll need to know what's bad for you because obviously I have it set rather high for cold since terrapin base, but otherwise I've only ever accessed them when someone was missing.
[Or when he woke up from a nightmare and just Had To Be Sure people were accounted for.]
Bud, he's oblivious about things like that unless someone tells him outright. I promise you that if he meant anything by it he'd have been a mess about it first. If he was in her space, either he didn't know, or he had very different and not bad intentions, or both.
I promise you, he has his own romantic partners and several bedmates and he still flails uncontrollably around them, he didn't mean anything by it. If Choco was offended don't you think she'd boot him into next Christmas? If she wasn't, let it be.
No, but that's why I'm making it clear I still don't trust him, but I'm not going to fight him.
[A pause.]
Also Choco and I will need a medical break from any kind of lessons in a few months. I'll let you know when its setting in, all this world hopping is throwing off my calenders.
Of all the annoying things world hopping does, the throwing off of internal clocks may actually be the worst.

[ He considers that. Normally there'd be no reason he couldn't just get himself out of a bad situation, but this place does like its abnormalities. ]
If you want me to, I can.

Re: February 8, afternoon
If something separates me from this thing, there's way bigger problems than where I am.

Re: February 8, afternoon
I don't anticipate needing it, but I figure if you wait until you need something like that, it's probably too late.

I do happen to know at least one other billion to one genius here. I'm just saying, we're not exactly cookie cutter in these parts.

Nope, different one. He's from my world.

Re: February 8, afternoon
Right, right. Just let me know. [ He sounds almost bored by this announcement. It's normal in the animal world. ]
