( Instead of the harried intern, the woman that appears is stern-faced and imposing, arms crossed and scowl firmly in place. )

I am Cynosure, leader of the Luminals.

I'm told we have you to thank for the restoration of the population of Knowhere. H'rry speaks highly of you, but now that the Luminals have returned, we have no need of your services as protectors of Knowhere - that has, and will always be, our job.

( Her frown deepens, even as she continues: ) With the Cortex online once more, you are to be sent to a distant planet to help locate what is only referred to as an 'abnormality' on the planet. No further details are available, so do not ask for them. We will remain in contact with you, and should any of you find this 'abnormality', those in the Cortex will be notified and proceed from that point.

Everyone wearing a Passport bracelet will be expected to show up in the Cortex at 11.00 for teleportation to planet 10952.EG.K. Those who fail to show up will face severe disciplinary action. We are not running a daycare here on Knowhere, you are expected to work with us in exchange for the goods and services we provide and your eventual return to your own universes.

That is all.

[ an ooc note: characters WILL be able to access the network and make posts while they are on this mission. any ic questions can be asked of Cynosure in this post, but her responses may not be as helpful as one wants. ]

Is it working? Did you get it back online? Oh! It is. Finally.

( the hologram of h’rry smiles ruefully as he clears his throat. )

Hello! Before I say anything else, thank you. Without your help, we never would have managed to survive the last few days. I knew that the Infinity Gems would only choose the best of people as hosts, and I was right!

( he sounds almost surprised, about that. )

But that reminds me—you’ve probably figured it out by now, but the Infinity Gems are no more. At least, they aren’t Gems anymore. As far as we can tell, they’ve each split into about a million pieces. And before we could stop them, they’d been drawn into the Cortex and scattered across several universes!

That’s right--your universes. The shards have chosen each of you, and that’s why you’re here. We need your help.

( he nods, suddenly solemn. )

We need to set things right again. The Storage Crystal has disappeared from the Cortex, and without it we can’t even begin to do that. It must have gotten lost in the battle—but maybe you could find it? Maybe start at the observation deck. We’d really appreciate it.

We also need to repair the Cortex itself. I know the basics, but—well. It’s a complicated device! Much more complicated than anything in any of your universes, believe me! But if you’re willing to lend a hand, the job’ll go that much quicker. After all, it brought you here. Don’t you want a way home once all of this is through?

As for the attackers… ( he looks away, clearly uncomfortable. ) You did a good job, like I said! We’ve taken them all into custody. But you can let us deal with them from now on. You’ve done enough already.

I hope you’ll find your accommodations suitable! If there’s anything you need, or any questions you have, you can let me know! I'm H'rry, from the Kree homeworld. But this is my home now, and I'll help you as best I can.

We’re counting on you, after all.

Oh, thank Pama you’ve finally arrived! We’ve been looking for you everywhere—and I mean everywhere, everywhen, and everyhow.

( his voice is young, and though his inflection betrays a good deal of emotion there’s something interfering with the hologram—it looks as though someone keeps walking between him and the camera, cutting him off from view. )

I’m sorry I wasn’t there to welcome you—that’s my job, you know, and I volunteered, and I really am glad you’re here—but there wasn’t time. By know you’ve figured it out, right? We’re in big trouble.

( ominously, his hologram disappears at this point and doesn’t return for several long moments. when it does, he looks a bit disheveled. )

Sorry! Sorry. I can honestly say we weren’t expecting this! We were only trying to bring you all here—because we need you. We never intended to let them in, I swear…

( his voice cuts out again, and then the hologram tilts 180 degrees as he falls to the ground, landing hard on his hands. )

Ow—oh, no. Don’t touch that! You can’t have it, we need it—

( he reaches for something, off screen, but is pushed away violently. )

They’re going for the Cortex—if they get to it, nothing I can tell you will be secure, anymore. And believe me when I say that they probably hate you more than they hate us—you’re on our side, after all!

( the ground shakes beneath his feet, and he shifts again, going out of focus. when his face reappears, it seems as though he’s crouched low, leaned up against some unseen surface. )

I’m afraid we aren’t as well-defended as I thought—you can see why we need you. I promise, I’ll explain everything—I made a presentation!—but right now there’s no time. I need you to get to the observation deck, ( his voice cuts out entirely, and long moments are lost ) Continuum Cortex, from there you can… ( again, his words are swallowed by static ) …do you understand? Can you help?

( he takes a deep breath, and looks like he’s about to go on—but before he can, the hologram disappears entirely.

every passport bracelet will light up, at this point, and then go entirely dark. any efforts made to use the messaging system will not go through. )

( ooc | h'rry will not be making replies, but your characters are free to react in the comments. )
