[Video] Hello! I am a protagonist.

[alephbet]

[Aleph is sitting at the terminal, with a winged girl in white hovering behind him.]

Nigredo and I have been discussing having a quick response team, and I apologize if anything like this already exists and I simply haven't run across it.

The main problem with responding quickly to any problem is that there are few methods of quick communication. For that reason, if anyone can make working cell phones, has telepathy, or any further method of communication across floors, please contact me. In the meantime, I'll make do.

This is Lilim. [The girl waves.] She'll be staying every day on floor fourteen, the media room, which is as close to the middle of the tower as I could convince her would be interesting to stay in. If you or anyone else need defense for any reason at any time during the day, please contact her. She'll get me from where I am. If you need the media room for normal reasons, feel free to kick her off the game console. [She pouts.]

Unfortunately I can't leave her alone at night with the monsters out and about. In that case, my room is 2-04. Please fetch me, and my roommates will have to deal.

This is as efficient a response as I can make under my current power. Again, if anyone has ways of improving this, please reply. My name is Aleph, and thank you, again.

Ah, I can help! I might be able to make something like a cell phone, and until then, I would be able to use my ability to help alert you of anything via your arm terminal... Well, I mean, if you're okay with that.

[alephbet]

As long as you don't mess with my demons, that would be extremely helpful, thank you.

[Video]

[technologic]

I won't, I promise! [Even if she is curious about them.] I'm not really sure how long it would take to build the devices though, since it depends on how many you want and the equipment available here, along with if anyone else is gonna want to build them too.

[Video]

[alephbet]

We should start by getting them to the people who can't defend themselves easily.

[Video]

[technologic]

Right... [She 'hmm's to herself.] The devices might not be the most hi-tech thing ever, and may just be designed to send a 'ping' to the devices of those who can help them. But I'll do my best with what we've got.

[decompose]

I'd like to suggest that the quick response team also double as a patrol team. Lilim will definitely be a big help in all of this. Hopefully we can come up with a more efficient communication system outside of the terminals in the mean time.

Are there any further updates?

[alephbet]

April says she can contact me through my arm terminal, so that should be useful. And she might be able to make some cell phones.

[decompose]

That's good news. [A pause.] I can... response to some things on my own, but it's not fool proof.

[There's a lot of mental noise, and pinpointing trouble from that alone is... difficult. Taxing.]

[alephbet]

If I had powers along that nature, I would use them.

[decompose]

[A small frown. Doesn't meet the camera for a moment.]

It's like I said. It's not fool proof. So far, I haven't found any other ways, yet, myself.

[midgarhorizon]

Huh. Thought Minami was doing the night patrol.

[alephbet]

Are they?

[imperialsun]

Unfortunately, Minami appears to be missing from the tower. I know a few who were patrol with her still continue to do so, including myself.

[alephbet]

In that case, I would be glad to help your efforts.

[midgarhorizon]

Thought I hadn't heard from her in a while. You guys have a schedule?

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

To my knowledge it doesn't exist, no.

[He does stare at Lillim for a moment, before grinning.]

I see you're able to summon your demons here. How useful. What others do you carry with you?

[Video]

[alephbet]

I have Beelzebub, Shiva, Anubis, Rangda, and Mara, besides Lilim.

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

Hmm... and I assume you have a storage device with you?

[Itchy fingers for tech he wants to see it hnnngh.]

[Video]

[alephbet]

My arm terminal has them.

[Hence the big thing he's wearing on his arm.]

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

Ah. Are such things common in your world?

[video]

[kungfubomber]

Sounds like a good idea. It still blows my mind how enormous this tower is -- and dangerous as well. Do you know if there are any regular patrol teams on any of the floors?

[video]

[alephbet]

I've learned that a few people patrol at night, but I don't know much more than that about the team.

[video]

[kungfubomber]

Right. Thanks. [Bomberman wants in on the team, partially because he needs something productive to do. There seemed to be a fair amount of combatants in the tower, from what he'd been observing from his short time here, so it makes sense that they'd eventually put something like that together. He'd have to ask around, then.] Name's Bomberman, by the way. Kind of a newbie here.

[video]

[alephbet]

Aleph, also relatively new. Nice to meet you.

[He's named after a letter, he doesn't judge names.]

[video]

[kungfubomber]

How long have you been here for? I think I'm coming up on a month and a half.
