THEORY & CONCLUSION↴ At the midnight between Day 109 and Day 110, something happens. For most people, it won't be clear what - yet, they are shaken by it just the same. Violent tremors appear out of nowhere, rattling the entirety of the Polar station, violent enough to throw sleeping test subjects off their bunks. The source is unclear, but there is a sudden flurry of activity from staff as power flickers and is lost in various parts of the facility. Subjects, for the most part, will be left to their cells while they try to sort things out. The next morning, the staff are late picking people up. It's more like 6:30AM than the usual 6AM when they arrive to take people to the farm, which is a bit of tardiness that is entirely without precedent. Any questions about the incident the previous night will be waved off with the explanation of 'technical difficulties' that have been 'resolved.' ► DELTA: The three new Deltas will be left in their cells for even longer, waiting to be picked up, instructed that they would be escorted elsewhere instead of to the farm. Around 6:45AM some unfamiliar technicians will arrive and tell them that they are here to begin their processing into Delta. They are led into a previously untouched section of the station, where they are invited into a somewhat more intimate medical room to be asked some cursory questions and given a check up. Then, their suits will be removed, and they will be provided with their new uniforms, which they can apply like normal clothes. Delta life begins there. There will be a top level for the initial parts of their processing to be played out. Ultimately, however, they will end up being given a tour of the new Delta facilities, which amounts to a waterfront area that borders the new apartments they'll be staying in, as well a small supply shop where they can pick up an allotted amount of 'amenities' per day, based on their level of productivity and other achievements. This includes luxury items like food, pleasant smelling soaps, or other hygiene related tools. There are even small things like decorations or pictures of other places available, though they are fairly expensive. The first day will mostly involve the processing, a tour, and some basic training regarding the new tools they will be using, such as the mandatory visors and basic computer access. The next day, observation shifts in the farm will start, as will participation in trials. ► FARMING: The Farm will continue as normal, though it seems like there are fewer staff observing it at the moment. The ones that are there seem a little bit more tense than usual. Power is still down in some places, but the Farm is thankfully still active. Sometimes the productivity turn-in scanners might be a bit glitchy, so try not to panic if it measures fewer points than you're due. ► TRIALS: Trials are continuing as projected, though with the most broad of experiments already under way, they may be more selective. If you have an idea for a trial you can be sure to share it with the staff, and they will take it under advisement! Any information you want to provide is encouraged, they will say, especially if it involves notable traits about you or your fellow test subjects - or perhaps behavioral patterns you've noticed. You might even be rewarded! |

"What's up?" he asks, as a moment later, mostly just to fill space. It's less suspicious than saying they are going to talk and then saying nothing at all, right? Provided Gongenzaka is going to try using magic.
no subject
Aha, weeding. He gestures toward a nearby field, and starts to slowly make his way over with the other. "So I am checking in with those I know." That's what Gongenzaka says. What it comes with however is a sense of importance, and trust. A small image of himself holding a finger to his mouth in a 'shh' motion- followed by some tin-can telephones.
The feeling of questioning- does what he's 'projecting' make sense?
no subject
Meanwhile, he gets busy on pulling some weeds. At least the suit means his hands don't get cut up from doing this.
"Um... yeah, that's good," he says, obviously distracted by the soul chatter part. "I'm okay I guess. How about you?"
no subject
In his mind he focuses first on the idea of hope, and escape. Of an unknown source of help 'outside' of where they are. His best attempt at it is the image of themselves, inside some sort of box- a shrouded figure on the outside, waving a golden arrow.
"I, the man Gongenzaka, am remaining optimistic, at least..." More 'on the nose', he displays an image of the first two notes he ever received- complete with the memory of his Dream Thumbs holding each one.
'YOU ARE NOT ALONE'
...
('IN A GOOD WAY')
no subject
He knows what Gon is talking about. In fact...
Steven will imagine the shape of the sigil mark from Gild, and a picture of him and Amethyst holding hands. He's got one of those!
no subject
It's a shame this doesn't come with sound.
While he manages to keep his excitement to twitching ears externally, there's a lot of eager excitement internally. For a moment the flow of questioning sensations is entirely indecipherable- he didn't expect this! He thought only Yuuya was dreaming of this with him! (Yuuya's face is certainly prominent in the string of messy thoughts as a result)
He manages to calm himself however, and after a sigh, the communications resume- with the image of Steven sleeping, and golden arrows appearing in a cartoonish 'dream cloud' above his head. A questioning feeling presses over it; has Steven received notes from the fae yet? Or did he only just today take the mark?
no subject
"Things actually just started looking up for me today, so..."
No sleep yet.
no subject
He projects the image of Amethyst, talking; a cartoon speech bubble appearing to hold various indescipherable notes from the faerie. The sensation of questioning comes with it, as Gongenzaka ponders what Amethyst already told the other.
He doesn't want to repeat anything, so he's just making sure!
no subject
Amethyst had been fairly tight lipped.
no subject
First off- he grabs that image of being powered up, fading it a bit. The main image is that mark from their Friend, on some kind of present. A line connects to the power up. But another three lines go out as well- one leads to a similar image to what Steven had. This version seems to have a wand though, like he's casting magic.
The next line moves to...well technically two things. One is pretty clearly fire. The othet is just a bright, glowing spot. ...Light. He hopes that was clear.
The last line goes to a 'Detective' searching around with a magnefying glass. There's more hesitstion with that one- he's unsure how clear it will be, as something that means 'finding things'.
Regardless, he flashes a big number 1 over it all. One time use only!
