[Open Broadcast]

Who: Everyone on the telepathic network (which is everyone)
When: Just after the new arrivals show up.
What: Joscelin attempting to get things organized.

[There’s a lot of chatter going on, literally making it hard to hear yourself think, between veterans gossipping and speculating what the new wave of Travelers means, and accidental broadcasts by panicked new arrivals, until one hard-edged thought cuts through it all.]

Enough.

You all need to stop this before we drive ourselves insane.

Anyone with experience on the Network, I want a few organized broadcasts offering help and information to newcomers. We don’t call them Fools.

If you’re new, stay calm. No-one can overhear you unless you’re projecting. Try to divide yourselves as evenly as you can between the people giving you answers. That much is instinctive, you won’t have trouble as long as you can imagine it.

Anyone who’s been here longer and wants to speculate? Don’t do it publicly. Find your own little corners, or keep it off the network.

New telepaths. You’ll need to find someone more experienced more than anyone else does.

And everyone be ready for a new Jaunt.

You think we know when we're taking a risk or not?

Not always. None of us do. Some risks are obvious.

[Whether to kill someone or not, where to strike, the cost of failure.]

The last time some of us took a gamble, they disappeared. And, at the time, they thought giving up might have actually been a good option.

And sometimes risk is the only game in town. Remember Moebius?

[Given that no-one does so clearly, probably, it's likely a rhetorical question.]

No.

[Sigh, Gambit. Why do you make sense?]

I know it's sometimes our only option. I'm just wary this time after we've lost so many.

Believe me, I don't plan to take any risks I can avoid.

But then, they keep us in here much longer, we won't have that choice, either.
