One [VIDEO]

[A rather severe looking man in a black turtleneck addresses the network, oddly calm for someone who has just found out that his world was destroyed. He's a bit battered, having spent only a few moments on dressing and a hasty cleanup before heading for the nearest network terminal. There's quite a bit of dust in his hair, along with bruises and faint smears of what might be blood on his face and neck.]

My name is Howard Link. If there are any members of the Black Order present, please state your status and location. Anyone familiar with the facility, I would request your status as well. [Because last he checked? The station was pretty broken. Or well on it's way there, at least, and if he was pulled to this place? Well, there have to be others here.

He hesitates for a second or two before speaking again, glancing down briefly at something near the floor.]

... If there is anyone here familiar with the construction or repair of mechanical prosthetic limbs, please contact me at your earliest convenience.

We shouldn't rule it out completely. I doubt being given a new collar is a good sign, in any case.

[That's what her gut is telling her.]

Re: video;

[inspector_link]

[Definitely not.]

Have you met anyone else from the facility? [Because Link's getting reacquainted with some faces he hadn't known he forgot.]

No, but finding some way to access the network was my first order of business. My communicator was missing from my belongings.

[And the network was the easiest way to find people.]

[Great minds think alike. Or reasonable ones, at least.]

Emilia has already checked in. There are several others claiming to be from the facility as well, but I don't recognize them all.

[Because you're anti-social and lame, Link.]

[yishouzhetian]

[Exactly why Link and Lena were the group herders.]

[Ah, that news...stings a little. No Allen or Lavi or Kanda yet.]

I'm glad she's okay. We couldn't have possibly known everyone in the Facility.

[Even as their numbers shrunk.]

[inspector_link]

[Link's definitely missing Allen's presence already. Lavi's too. Kanda's not so much, but that doesn't need to be discussed.]

If the others are here, I'm sure they'll turn up soon.

[yishouzhetian]

[Kanda isn't Link's brother like he is for Lena.]

I hope so.

[And wow, this got depressing fast. Time for a subject change.]

Until then we should learn everything we can about this place.

[inspector_link]

[Nope. To Link, Kanda is just a dick. :|

Depressing is how facility peeps roll, man.]

I'm questioning some of the residents now. The introductory letters weren't very helpful.

[yishouzhetian]

[He's like that to a lot of people.]

[Sad but true.]

I think I'll go take a look around this place. The three of us should meet up after you have your leg looked at. [Oh yeah.] They placed me in room 1-17 if you need me in the future.

[Since they weren't given portable network devices.]

[inspector_link]

[He nods, committing that number to memory.]

I've been placed in 5-04.

[yishouzhetian]

I'll meet you guys in the kitchen or dining area later, then. [Nod, because there has to be a place like that here somewhere.]

[inspector_link]

Alright.
