I would advise against using the network, but given the circumstances there are no other options.

[ Have a Gandalf appearing on the screen- He looks dead serious, yet somehow calm. Anyone paying attention could notice he looks quite tired as well. ]

I need to know what happened in this tower before my arrival- From the first day people were ‘saved’. If there are people who could give me any relevant information, this would be highly appreciated.

I’m most interested in a child who has been mentioned a couple of time yesterday, I believe his name was Zo. From what little I have read, I assume something terrible must have happened.

I need to see the three of you as quickly as possible. Please come to the library as soon as you can. You know which one.

[ It is sent right after the video feed, and he won’t reply- What he has to speak about with them is too important to be discussed on the network. ]

Or they're bullshitting everyone.

[It's what he'd do anyway if he was in charge.]

Yeah, but I survived that, and we killed what was destroying worlds. Or... at least one of the things that was destroying worlds, they're probably like tonberries. If there's one there's at least ten more hiding somewhere.

[the_white_rider]

Or both.

[ Welp. ]

If that's a natural process, it is a battle that cannot be won. May I ask how you did destroy it and it was?

[notontheflowers]

Same way you beat anything bigger than a building that can destroy a planet; listen to the guy who knows how to defeat it, throw everything you have at it and don't get killed.

[he sighs because its a lot harder to do it when you're there.]

I can get in to details but not over the network.

[the_white_rider]

( He nods and actually agrees. ]

Understandable. Where Could I find you to pursue this conversation?

[notontheflowers]

I'm usually around the workshop or the floor with the galaxies, but I can meet you wherever you'd like.

[the_white_rider]

The floor with the galaxy this will be. I will try to be there shortly.

[ And there he goes. Though, it takes more time than expected. ]

Reno's there and waiting in his usual oversized sweater, studying the dying world projected around them with a somewhat tired gaze. There's a difference in how he holds himself compared to the other Reno; a set to his shoulders that can easily accept leadership, less hostility in the predatory coil in his chest, a weariness of someone who'd recently scraped through a battle with their life but not those of others who mattered to them. Subtle clues that even without the differently colored collar would have set them apart to the observer.

"Gotta say, you look a bit more trustworthy in person Gandalf." He nodded, a faint smile twitching across his face.

Gandalf sees those differences. Unless a certain swine who resides in this tower, he's smart enough to notice those small yet significant differences and assume they are two different version from one same person, alternate existences. He smiles at Reno's words though.

"A network, or any communication device makes it harder to judge a person. And we never know who else is watching... I wouldn't have used it would I have had a choice." he said and quickly glanced at the scenery around and pauses "Is it the same phenomenon you fought against before?"
