caughtinanetwork | [video] Data Gathering

[He's been mulling over it for a while, this whole lab on the island thing. The information Rita revealed's also been turned over in his head.

He's run more theories than he cares to consider through it, done more equations (mathematical and not, hypothetical, things considered more quantum than either math or science) than he has in years to try for sense. Didn't explain origins. Didn't explain the crossover. Didn't explain rationale (but then, that was the problem with science--loads of people forgot the reasons or went with sudden changes of heart). So after determining that there just isn't enough data for him to run on (and he's known that, just gone ahead and given it a shot for the Hell of it), Sol flips the feed on his SFC on for the first time since his arrival.

Goddamn bubble making him do something akin to socializing. Not his favourite past time, guys.

Cigarette hanging from his lips and settled in his apartment up against a wall, Sol fixes the screen with an implacable expression. Something like calculating but altogether too lazy to really be that.]

Who's been to th'lab and left with anythin'?

[Not that he wants it directly through the network; depends how many idiots have been carelessly transferring it via the service, though. Then again, it could be that the whole thing's been orchestrated, anyway. Hn...]

[Normally, he'd be all about the video function with his smiles and his winks...but not today. Today he's tired and worried and didn't really intend to be social, but this man had asked for something specific and Johnny fit the bill.]

I did. Took some blue liquid that was in some vials out of the lab. Dunno what it is, though. I left it with a friend to figure out.

[A friend he really needed to check with now that he was awake.]

[Suits Sol just fine; he'd have ignored all the antics, anyway. He hums, the sound almost rumbling from somewhere deep.

Better to err on the side of caution when it comes to these sorts of things. Efficiency. Safety of the masses. Sol is many things, but endangering innocents has never been his style. Of course, people not sharing information openly over the network is... still probably something he can't prevent or avoid. ...Whatever. If it comes to it, they'll figure out something.

"Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you."]

Nex' time y'see 'im, ask 'im what 'e's found out.

I have to see him in the next few days, I'll ask him then.

[Maybe it was just his cynicism talking, but he got the feeling Alister wasn't going to find anything.]

[There's little answer on Sol's end, just a sort of puff of air.]

Who the heck even talks like that?
You sound like a moron.

The kind that doesn't give a shit what you think. You going to complain, or are you going to say something useful?

What's it worth to you?

What's a collection of data worth to anyone with brain enough to work from it?

You have a brain? Guess it's true about surprises.
Check back through the network, idiot.
Then you'll have your data.

Apparently been comatose and then some. The most recent post about it is the first I've heard. This is more direct and gets it all in one place.

[And on the other side of the SFC... Entitled, self-esteem impaired...? Sol doesn't care enough to try and discern it, but fuck if it ain't annoying when kids pull this "holier than thou" shit. He gets enough of it from Ky.]

Nifty things about these communicators.
You can scroll back through older entries.
The cut off is your arrival date.

You do know how to scroll through past entries?

[Mwah~ Kisses <3]

If you want to be inefficient.

[Oh, and someone's just proven themselves more useful than this guy. Good, means there's no reason to prolong conversation.]

It spares everyone idiotic posts like this.
If you want I can show you something better if you'd like to meet.

[And they were just starting to be friends.]

Obviously you're familiar with the scientific process, then.

[Doubtful.]

Use a better line than that, kid.

[Zelda is that person who will always use google for someone else. She likes being useful, alright?]

I have not been there personally, but...

[Have a collection of links, Sol. Zelda already had them on hand. She's waiting to see if more information comes out before coming up with any new theories.]

This is everyone who has been public with their information so far. I've been monitoring the coral for quite some time, too.

[Sol's attention drifts from the feed as he flips through the links, eventually just leaving them up and to the side to better focus on later. The thing about discussing this kind of information--particularly when there were so many unknowns--is that dialogue is more efficient. Some people might have better understanding of certain kinds of subject matter, and thus be more capable of providing a solid hypothesis. Sol might be a loner by nature at this point, but he'd worked with a team for a reason.

Out of the frame, he taps the ash off the end of his cigarette.]

Got records?

I do, yes. I'm afraid I only have physical copies at the moment, though I am working on inputting them in a manner that's easier to share. I'd be happy to share if you'd like.

[Unfortunately, Sol, you'll probably have to come over to her house to get a copy.]

[Oh hey!]

I took a quick peek at it and man it's kind of creepy there. Found a list of names and blood. Straight out of one of those movies. Someone else uncovered something about fish diseases.

[Well, if it's as much of a bio-research facility as that one bratgirl's broadcast made it seem like, that's perfectly sensible. Fish make sense due to the number. Preventing or harnessing disease. Files--more than name/blood type? Sol hums somewhere low in his throat, gravelly sound.]

Got that list still?
