Someone dial 999
[Sorry everyone, this is all written out in a jagged scrawl, very jumbled and run-on in nature.]
Help-
Rin just collapsed? We were talkin' and I went to leave and- they just went down? No warnin' or nothin' just on the floor-
This drone is useless, wouldn't go get help-
They're not responding? Like there's a pulse but barely it's slow, there's no blood, nothing looks wrong, I can't see anything wrong, they just won't wake up and I don't know what the hell to do-
[Clearly Charles is doing Amazing here. Thriving even. He's absolutely not about 5 seconds from an epic little meltdown and is only holding it together because SecUnit needs help.]

It doesn’t surprise me that a security expert from what they implied their interstellar era is like would have a, hah, an innerlociter, an implanted computational device with sendjewel-like functions, installed for them to command their drones and process what they see. But I do worry what happens if they break down without anyone to repair or maintain them.

Yes. That's what they have and that's what Thorne is looking at over the feed. She says the eeyempy shut it down and it needs to reboot, but they should be fine when it does.

Can we trust Rin to get looked at by a cyberneticist in case something else went wrong? Do we have one?
no subject
I don't know. I'm not sure who else besides us is from an interstellar era. We might need to ask around.
Universal Generic System, the GURPS expy. Also fade to black here?
…saying you or I are from an interstellar age isn’t wrong, but it will raise questions. How do we answer those?
FADE TO BLACK
... Thorne has some ideas.
