Hello, everyone! As you've probably noticed, we've been having a few problems - I mentioned earlier that something got knocked out of balance, and we had to recalibrate, but in a few days we should be able to drop the emergency measures. Please be aware that there is an incoming storm, class four. General orders for that kind of thing are to report to management for any known threats and follow instructions, but so far what's known is "that might be a little annoying" and "hope it isn't". Theoretically it'll probably be related to the holiday, I think, because a large group of souls focused through the needle of a pin on one thing can sort of shape a thing around them.

That's sort of a really inaccurate way to put it on the technical side of things, but I think it's the easiest way to understand it! At any rate, we'll know more once we're in the thick of things. Please take care as usual; resources aren't exactly what some of you seem to think they are, and we had to expend rather more than usual in the past month or so to keep things with a few of you steady.

Cool, that's what we need, the person apparently feeding us any info we can get about all this losing it and/or quitting.

Don't tell me all of you are here.

From everything I've seen, I still think she's got the steadiest hand. She appears to be handling more than she should already.

Heh. It's been awhile since I was part of an "all of you." I assume you mean all of my sisters. There are three of us.

Just means when she burns out it's gonna be an even bigger fire.

You could've gotten another, I don't know. I've run into you and Clover. Gonna guess this lucky streak is about to continue.

Hence why we should keep an eye on it. I'd rather we're the ones to douse the flame...or just prevent it.

Your odds are good. Rose is almost certain to have something to complain about.

The others haven't said anything about it and they seem oblivious. I do check, from time to time.

Joanne's probably in the same position as anybody who's ever done customer service now that I think about it. That's all this whole thing is. All right, fine, I won't smash Retrospec's window with a year-old can of Spaghetti-Os if it keeps her on our side.

Geteilt und zusammengebracht. Toll. Love it. Love this luck I have.

I've been thinking the same. She doesn't have the control or even the jargon that the science staff or even research and development do.

[She thinks about asking after the German for a second; it's a sore, awkward spot, sharing a name that meant nothing to her culturally but somehow made them a family. Instead, she moves on.]

Your luck can't be that exceptional, at least. Look just how many of us there are already.

Everyone only tells everyone else exactly enough shit they need to do their jobs. I know how it goes.

[Anna's not gonna give anybody crap for their names, least of all these sisters from what she does know about their whole family situation. she's just being a nerd. probably the right move there.]

Yeah, there's a fucking ton of us on this thing and I know way more of you than I thought I would. Might as well just assume the whole city is logged on.
