[Mingle] Suck it, Atroma
Who: Anyone involved in the new network plot.
Broadcast: If you want, but try to keep this off the Atroma network as much as possible.
Action: Whenever you want. Planet? Ships? Iskaulit? Space is the limit.
When: During their stay on the Baruut System (9/25 to 10/27)
[The Baruut System has given them a chance they never thought possible: modifications of their own for their ships. Guns and shields, everyone thinks of those, but there also are donut machines and slot car tracks. It feels like everything is possible!
So... is it?
The need for a safer way to share information and talk to the other crews (including the Interceptors) has been in Shiro's mind for a while now. Atroma took care of the communication options in his armor when he arrived, and the tablet he bought on a planet can't be used for this either. Only the apps work.
Could this finally be their chance? Time for gather people and find out.
TIME FOR TEAMWORK!
So where do you come in, fellow fleeter~?
1. The talk! Maybe you're being informed of the idea, or maybe you're informing someone else. Or you wanna discuss the options? The possible dangers? What we need to do this? (The Power of Teamwork, that's what!)
2. Asking for donations! Looking for parts in the planet! Arguing prices with the locals! Not everyone is a nerdy builder, but you can help in other ways.
3. Building! Bring your parts, pass the screwdriver to an engineer, help keep track of the screws. Is that a five or an S on the blueprints? Someone please feed these nerds, they've been in their labs for a while.
4. Installing and testing! Time to go for it! Bring your tablet, your phone, your personal computer, your Tetris machine- ok no. Send a message, check this works. Hope your selfie game is on point! Are you hacker and/or communications officer? Then help test the security! Send a cat meme to someone using someone's else number. A classic.
5. Wildcard! Those were just summaries of what goes through the month. Bring your own adventure!]

Uhhh, yeah, sure. I'm basically using this as proof of concept before I waste any big spells on the real deal, I'm just trying to decide what actual concept I want to work with. It's not my usual MO, but I think it'd be wisest to start small and work my way up.
[She's used to having actual magic users to bounce her theories off of - and it would be ideal to have Taako here, but he hadn't wanted to get involved - so having at least a listening ear is helpful, even if he can't provide much else.]

[ He gives a little lopsided smile, perfectly aware he's not the most helpful here but trying with what he can. ]
So can I ask how the spells work? As long as that's not a super annoying question, anyway.

[They've done a lot of that already, but trying to marry magic with technology is something she doesn't have much experience with, at least not on this scale. She knows some things about fixing a magic spaceship, and a hefty part of being a wizard is connecting ethereal power with a science of arrays, materials, and solid math, but this is so... intricate. It's tricky.]
Sending is a simple message spell, verbal, directly to a person's head. They're usually short, but if I can set the enchantment up to have multiple uses, that shouldn't be an issue. Range is no problem either, so that'll be good for a network that spans the entire fleet. My biggest issue is getting this- [She points to one communicator, then to the next-] To send the message to this, instead of to a person. Scrying is a method of observing someone- both verbally and visually, so it can function as a the communicator's video option if we can get it working properly as a two-way street. I'm not hurting for options, here. There's multiple spells for communicating with people, just...
[She gestures at the mess on the table in front of her.]
It's complicated when you want it to work like this, is all.
