Hello everyone,

Unless I’ve missed something in the past hour or so, it seems like our network hasn’t been compromised by whatever has caused this massive security failure. I have at least five messages in my inbox that I’m certain aren’t for me, but everything seems clean here.

I think, as the group of people with the (apparently) only properly functioning network (and various talents, in a manner of speaking), we’re obligated to use it to organize ourselves and assist. The entire city is facing more problems as a result of this breach than I’ve ever seen before from one event. If you’re not particularly interested in helping those that could be trapped in cars or victims of accidents right now, consider that the external temperature has been rising. I don’t know about everyone else, but I’m personally certain that once it gets around 55C I’m going to start dying.

The network has apparently been used before to coordinate teams of Displaced, let everyone know what’s needed and who to meet with, and I suggest we do it again. I’ll keep an eye on this and provide hotlinks to pertinent discussions, so anyone with particular skills or interests can volunteer themselves.

Stay safe everyone. Don’t spend too much time in the heat without decent protection, you can only help so much if you pass out in the middle of it.

You need to tell me if you're hurt.

[ pot, kettle. ]

[Bad username or site: stephen @ strange] can help with first aid if you can get him your location.

We'll get this done as fast as we can. If it's a lost cause—

[ then what?? holden doesn't have an exit route planned. ]

I'll find you when I get back. [Bad username or site: margaret @ carter] could use a set of hands in the meantime

I can use as many hands as people can spare, thank you, Mr Holden. Although I imagine Mr Burton's are quite full at the moment.

Is there anything I can do for you, @amos.burton? Do you know where your train stopped?

[miscalibrate]

[ "stopped" ]

A few blocks south of the red light district
Should we be sending the injured somewhere? How fucked are the hospitals right now?

[ he's assuming 'very', but might as well confirm. ]

[miscalibrate]

I'll tell you if I need help. I don't.

[ thanks for sounding the alarm anyway, u narc. but also, completely seriously: ]

Thanks, cap

[ you know, for all the usual reasons he says thanks before they probably die — including being a good man, even if he's pretty sure it's pointless. ]
