001 [TEXT] [LOCKED TO NEW HIRES ONLY]
[The screens of the New Hires flicker with a text message. The image of a starburst briefly flashes on the screen, alone in an empty sky.]
[The screen that pops up changes the way the network interface usually looks. It makes it a bit more surreptitious, so that pencilneck looking over their shoulders would think they're using an innocuous data entry program. There's also a panic button in the corner that they can hit to shut their connection down early.]
[The program makes their comms connection even slower, since the network's already running at terrible speed, but at least it's discreet. And resources have been devoted to at least making the panic button shut down fast if they need it.]
[The post is a text post, and where the posters name should be it says: ┖⍟ϗϵ⸈₮αℜ]
Evening, ladies and gents and variations thereupon, the name's Lonestar.
None of us have all day and I'm not the type for melodrama about how big brother's eyes are watching, so I'm going to keep this to the point. I'm a New Hire like you and want us to get out of here as much as most of you all likely want to leave
With these internal shock collars, getting free is most likely going to be difficult. And a long-term, coordinated effort. But to coordinate, we need ways of communicating Jorgmund can't see.
I've created this program to let us encrypt and filter our conversations away from Jorgmund. It just auto uploaded and self-executed to your comms but you can quickly uninstall it any time if you need to be extra cautious.
[A link appears on the screen to some kind of drop box type interface, containing a file.]
That link will let you download the installation file so that it can be saved and dispersed by any New Hires to any future kidnapping victims even if I'm found out and killed.
Locked posts will have a small signifier noting they're locked, an innocuous interface that mimics a notepad application Jorgmund has on our comms, and a panic button to cut off the connection and boot you out of the interface in case a Jorgmund staffer is looking over your shoulder.
However, while it can encrypt our conversations, it can't mask overall network usage so we'll need to keep maintaining non-locked conversations about whatever inane topics make for good public discussion. The resources the encrypted posts use are minimal, so as long as unlocked traffic occurs, it should be able to mask our more discreet conversations.
[That means they must shitpost like their lives depend on it.]
I know that you have good reason to not be inclined to trust me, but the only reason I'm hiding my identity is so any potential snitches can't report me to Jorgmund so I get "fired."
Possibly out of cannon.
The encryption will let any of you go anon, too, in case people want to play spy and drop something useful that Jorgmund would get in a snit about. As much as it'd be helpful to all hold hands and sing happy songs, we don't know if anyone here might brown nose and snitch for their own benefit.
Anon posting and replies can only happen in locked post because Jorgmund doesn't have it enabled on our normal network posts.
Oh, also, there seems to be script for a swearing filter on normal network posts. In locked posts, you can say "fuck" all you want.

anon text unless otherwise noted
[ The only one here who has a shot in hell of recognizing that is Saint-14 or (probably more likely) his Ghost, Gepetto. It's been Cayde-6's towernet ident since the Tower got the net in the first place. ]
Not to say too much in potentially mixed company, but our friends here really don't know what they're dealing with. I cheerfully anticipate that's true for plenty of you, too.
So, sound off: How we doing on supplies, my fellow corpos? I know I'm not seeing good portion sizes in the mess if some of you with the weird powers don't just run on 100% wishes and magic.

Trying to feed us all the same thing, no seconds, isn't going to cut it for some people. That's not a high calorie count for what people are going to be burning in the field if these missions have us facing a fight.
[He has some fat to burn but anytime he gets hurt, his body needs fuel for the super-healing to work with. And protein. He know she can't be the only one.]
Re: anon | un: shea
If we're lucky we can work out a more permanent solution in our actual supply line, but I don't plan to wait and see how bad it gets in the meantime.
Essentially: Watch this space.
