First Clue - Audio/Text

[whistlesatengineers]

[ The first sound out of the comm was a suspicious thump thump thump. Someone’s testing to see if it’s on, maybe? After that, someone whistles what sounds like the acknowledging warble a computer might make. After that is a long, tense pause, followed by a grunt. The audio flicks off, but typing starts after a few more moments. ]

[ Another long pause before the typing continues. ]

This isn’t New Mombasa. This probably isn’t even Earth, is it? Where am I?

[ More importantly, where are his guns?!]

Memories?

[heavyweaponsbot]

... yeah. Same world... same day... we all remember different things happening before we were taken.

[whistlesatengineers]

Weird. Does that happen often?

[heavyweaponsbot]

[There's a metallic creak - a shrug.]

Not certain. Probably.

[whistlesatengineers]

[ He grunts quietly. This entire thing is just way too odd for him. ]

I guess that's not necessarily a bad thing.

[heavyweaponsbot]

...

Why not?

If they show up here - I'm guessing that's how this works - from after you left, at least you've got a little news from back home? You're not just left dangling and worrying about your friends.
