Some Important Follow-Up

[photonicfighter]

Excuse me. If everyone who went to Santa Carlita has a moment?

[Dakki pauses briefly to give people a chance to pay attention. That's how this is done, right?]

I've followed up with Tachibana, and it turns out that he put a tracking device on something that belonged to me. It's gone now, but apparently, the agents are now on the lookout for interdimensional aliens, not just ones from other planets.

I should have been more cautious. I'm sorry. Could the other agents confirm if they've planted anything, too, before I go and get everyone shaking themselves down for bugs?

...and that said, now that we're all back to ourselves, I'm very curious... did the 'aliens' pose any actual threat? What was that all even about? I'm not impressed with a government whose first reaction to extraterrestrial life is to panic and try to lock it up. That can't be the entire story, can it?

Comments

[unconventionalelf]

They had devices for tracking? Isn't that cheating in a hunt?

[ More reasons to not like those men in weak dark armor.]

I, might not have helped too much with the failed spell I cast when I freaked out.

[photonicfighter]

Cheating isn't a concern when they think it's a matter of security. This isn't a game of some sort.

...and it is what it is. I was hoping that anything strange that happened during the breakout would just be waved off as 'oh, they're aliens'. Apparently, they're smarter than that.

[unconventionalelf]

Right... they didn't have to hunt for food there.

The failed spell was during the breakout. But I will check my clothing. If I find it should I destroy it?

[photonicfighter]

I'd hope that they weren't hunting people for food...

Check your clothing for anything out of the ordinary. The tracking device that came along with me was shaped like a sticker, and stuck to a pair of headphones. Look for something thin and flat stuck to your clothes, and you should try and destroy it, yes.

[unconventionalelf]

I would too. Okay, I just scared myself some.

I'll check, I'm hoping I don't have to destroy things, I kind of like the clothing I was wearing, well, but the footwear...

[photonicfighter]

Not fond of the footwear?

Ah, make sure to check inside your shoes, and on the bottom.

[unconventionalelf]

The footwear I had was, useless for real wear. Some sort of sandal made from the skins of dungeon jellies.

[ There's a pause as she checks.]

I didn't notice anything strange. So they might not have tagged those they kidnapped.

[photonicfighter]

Dungeon jellies?

Ah. That's good. If there's anything that you're still not sure of, try to keep it in hammerspace.

[unconventionalelf]

It is a slime creature.

Hammerspace? I do not know how to access that. I will ask one of the others to help me with that.
