If you'd like to ask the Transmitter something over the phone, go right ahead! The Transmitter will answer the phone as soon as she's available. Leaving messages is impossible, given how old these phones are, but you should be able to reach her at almost all hours.

Comments

[transmittable]

Of course. What's up, Authentic?

[ossifragant]

Has this building been re-purposed at all? I'll admit, I'm not an expert on hospitals, but a shooting range seems a little unusual for one.

[transmittable]

Re-purposed a little, yeah, but some people take well to that kind of physical therapy.

[ossifragant]

I guess I can see that. It seems a little dangerous for a hospital, but if someone got shot they'd be in a place where something could be done about it.

[transmittable]

Exactly! Plenty of people who need help retraining their eyes or motor skills.

[ossifragant]

All right, I guess I can see your point in that.

Like I said, I know very little about hospitals.

[transmittable]

Ahhh, I don't s'pose someone with your...physiology would need one, yeah?

[ossifragant]

That's the gist of it, yeah. No need for a hospital when you can heal from any wound instantly, including fatal ones.

[Of course, there's a tone to his voice that suggests he's incredibly aware that's not the case at the moment.]

Speaking of my physiology, actually, do you happen to have any books? I don't care what, exactly, but it gets a little boring at night. I try not to wander around after a certain time, but not needing sleep has a number of disadvantages to it.

[transmittable]

Huh? Oh...! Oh, I completely, absolutely forgot, you don't- um, let me see what I can do? I don't have access right now, but- but let me see what I can do for you, okay? It'll be...awhile, but books make sense, I'll try for books.

[ossifragant]

Thanks. I appreciate it.

[transmittable]

Welcome. Hope you, uh...find something to do 'til then.

[ossifragant]

I'll manage. I have so far.
