Can You Hear Me Now? // [Lyndis/Kay/Marr/Thundy/Kap]

Arne’s love of gears and tinkering turns out to be the best use of his time. During his senior year, he designs this new radio that can pick up signals from beyond the boundary of the district. Of course, he wants to replicate it but he needs parts. He tells his friends, Amelia and Bambi Britton. They instantly agree to help – but how can they get enough parts? They realize that they need someone small, quick and brave to sneak into the district's recycling plant. Amelia suggests her young neighbor.

It doesn’t take much to convince Shaylee Cantinova to join their zany project.

Our scene today begins in an abandoned warehouse adjacent to the recycling plant. Arne has brought his radio and they’ve picked up a signal beyond the usual district bandwidth.

Smol Operative Shaylee:

There's crackling in the static. I look up from my chipped nails. It's been an hour, maybe more, judging by the light filtering in from the top of the warehouse. Someone else busted out the attic windows, probably to steal whatever they used to store here. It's clearly been abandoned for years; there's weeds growing in the concrete's cracks. I don't totally hate it, as far as aesthetics go. It's cold. It's lonely. It's the perfect hide-out.

And apparently Arne's radio signal can get through the concrete walls. Or maybe through the roof? I'm a little fuzzy on how all this tech works. Doesn't matter, so long as it does. In all my years of knowing Arne, he's never failed me.

"That sounds promising?" I say and hope off the stack of plywood I'd been resting on. I throw a glance at Amelia. "Can we do anything to help?"
