Who: Qubit, assorted
What: Qubit needs to contact a few people about the whole Longinmouth situation.
When: i don't even know. time isn't real
Where: Anchor
Warnings: N/A
1. for Ben & Pratt, separately
[ Both of them will get the same text, but at slightly different times. ]
I need to speak with you. In person, if possible.
It's about the incident with Carlisle.
2. for Kieran
[ There's no point trying to contact Kieran over the network. He couldn't read to begin with, and now he's blind as well. So Qubit tracks him down in person, checking in first at the Medbay, only to find out he's been released and relocated into the dormitories.
He finds the appropriate door and knocks. ]
Kieran? It's Qubit. Are you in?
3. for Onni
[ Carlisle is Qubit's friend. He'll stop at nothing to help him. But there's only so much he can actually do - he may be able to help Carlisle suppress the psionic side of his abilities, but that was never going to be anything but a stopgap, a treatment of the symptoms rather than the underlying cause.
The cause is magic. And magic is far outside his wheelhouse.
He does know a handful of magic-users in Anchor. Initially, he thought about asking Loki, but the man's trustworthiness aside, he's been Ported out. Reynir's wards might be useful for containment, but that's not his objective right this second. There's still one avenue he needs to explore, one that's a total unknown. Onni Hotakainen, the Finnish mage.
So one day, Onni will be getting an audio call from him: ]
Onni Hotakainen? This is Qubit. I'll get right to the point - there's an urgent matter that I believe only a mage may be able to resolve, and I need to know if you can help. The safety of everyone in Anchor is at stake.

no subject
[He's not quite following Qubit's thought process, he knows enough about sciency stuff to not die, but not so much to truly understand what's going on.]
Is it caused by the radioactivity or something?
[He leads Qubit to where the swamp had been. It's just a rough patch of ground now, a part of the agriculture level that hasn't been cleared out for the ranch or to plant things. It looks utterly normal.]
