[Video] Egret Day 24, Afternoon

[wizard_redfive]

Hey, fellow passengers.

So I've got a look inside these ICP monitors. [She taps the screen.] Remotely, of course.

Its parts are about what you'd expect from similar technology. Not quite Earth tech, but close enough to make comparisons. What's really unique are the materials making up those parts. I've seen some off world metals in my day, but these are new. Some of their compounds aren't even on the periodic table! ...Yet.

[Dairine grins smugly.]

Has anyone looked into the metal that makes up other parts of the train? Maybe we could compare notes.

[She doesn't bring up the system or programming discoveries. Those Dairine wants to save for people she trusts.]

[Which means Dairine gets another ping through Spot:]

'Not anything we've encountered before, but not spectacular enough to EXPLAIN anything' seems par for the course for what we've learned so far.

Guessing that's not all you've found though, is it?

[And now, someone who's not privacy-default!]

Would this be the sort of discrepancy expected from encountering beings of another world/multiverse, or is this unique even from that standpoint?

Video response

It's nothing I've encountered before, even down into the molecular level. And I've got actual spaceports on one end of my hometown...

[All things considered, he looks a bit scruffy thanks to everything that's gone down, but Xander's pretty sure what little information he has here should be shared.]

I haven't got much more than that for you, though.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Uh.. no.

Can you get me a list? I'd love to look if that's okay?

Oh. uh, I'm Peter. Peter Parker. I don't think that we've met? If we have uh... I don't really have an excuse other than like last month was kinda rough on me.
