episode 02 [Video | Smartphone]
[Oh hey, Thomas is still around and, oh lord is he on the network out in public?]
Hello everyone. I was feeling a bit under the weather these last few weeks, but I could never leave you all waiting. So yes, I am perfectly fine and back to my people.
[To anyone paying attention, they'd realize that he's in the park near Candy's bakery. They would also notice that Thomas' hair might have gotten lighter? It looks like there's one or two blonde hairs sticking out of his hair. Must be a trick of the light of a bit of gold streamer or something.]
Now don't worry, I typed my number into Skype so this ought to seem nice and normal to anyone not in our club sneaking a peek. So tell me everyone, how are all of you amid our little group's usual chaos?

Uh! Thomas! Should you really be talking to the network while out in public? What if a cop sees you!
Video;
[Yes he totally would be.]
That reminds me, aren't I near your bakery? Recovered from that deer yet?

Video -> action;
[Thomas had apparently been on a park bench since it's in the background as he walks toward the bakery. He hasn't stopped talking into the phone though. It's mostly just idle commentary before he walks into the bakery with the most smug look he can seemingly manage.]
action;
[As soon as he comes in and is still talking, she grabs him--not hard, just firmly--and tugs him to a corner table where there's no one around.]
So...okay, what were we talking about? And--keep your voice down!
action;
The last time we spoke, it was about memories that weren't yours. While I was on my way here it was about how I had made an amazing discovery about a member of our network thanks to memories I've been gaining that aren't mine.
I know I'm amazing, but the pulling and grabbing was a bit much.
action;
Anyway...you got an echo? What was it about?

Apparently the police are monitoring everyone from suspicious behavior. Mutant animals are also an occurrence now.
Video;
Ah more of those things then? Well, I fought off those creatures in the mines well enough, I should have no trouble with some animals or police.
[Oh man, he's doing that overly conspicuous "talking with wide sweeping hand motions" thing.]
Video;
Those things?
Also, you are waving your hands a lot, so you may want to be more... discreet.
Video -> audio;
Oh and thank you for the concern, but I'm fine. Although, knowing that it looks like I'm talking to a blank skype screen, I think I'll just switch off the camera and pretend I'm making a call.
Handwritten;
And yes, that's probably for the best. But tell me more about the bats. Or demon bats. I like to be prepared.
audio;
Then there were also the giant hair monster things, but I'm hoping those weren't mutated from anything.

Just so you know :)
Video;
[Thomas has the biggest "well shit" look on his face.]
So instead I look crazy. Plan B then, time to bring up the recording software I suppose.
[Text still!]
[Okay, he sounds a little amused now. Sorry, Thomas.]
Video - audio;
[The video cuts out and the smugness of his tone just increases.]
What will I think of next?
[Text]
[The dry amusement. Can you read it, kiddo?]
audio;
Oh indeed. I'm an engineering grad student at the university you know. I worked hard to get where I am today.

[What? Him avoid ordering pizza so he doesn't have to deal with Karson's demands for larger tips? Perish the thought.]
