*Makes a walkie-talkie motion with my hand and then points at the frequency*

@Nimda

Yup. I don’t believe there’s a significant chance that it actually is a signal carrying any kind of message, but it’s worth checking.
*Tunes the radio and directs the receiver towards the moving object, tracking it, but nothing seems to come through on any frequency but noise*

*Pumps my fists and then tilts my head to look at the object*
...?

@Nimda

How peculiar.
*Locks that screen into the viewing monitor and pulls up another to check the other wavelengths, to no avail*

Myriad Reality

*Nods*

@Nimda

I like the way you think, young one!
*Pulls up a camera on a large monitor and uses a dial to begin filtering wavelengths to observe it from. Upon reaching a certain point in the Radio range, a singular, small, round something can be seen swirling around in the storm, following the patterns if its flow*
What do you think that is?

*Shakes my head*
...
*Infrared light enters the visible spectrum, allowing everyone on the ship to observe temperature; the effect deactivates and I point to the window*

@Nimda

Are you telling me to observe the storm in different wavelengths?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*Shakes my head; the room gets slightly warmer, then colder before I point around the room, then point to the terminal, then point outside*

@Nimda

I’m afraid I don’t understand this one, sorry. Do you sign?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*Shakes my head*
...!
*My hand glows red hot and I point to my hand before pointing out the window*

@Nimda

Is something wrong back there? What’s that?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*Shrugs*

@Nimda

If you feel like exploring the area outside the storm would be helpful, you’re welcome to do that as long as you either can resist the effects of Outside or take a vest.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*Shrugs and then points to myself, then points outside, then puts my hand above my eyes and looks back and forth*

@Nimda

It’d be way too dangerous to even think about. Someone spending just a moment in there is what got us where we are now to begin with.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*Watches the results*

@Nimda

*After a few moments, the console bleeps at a volume loud enough to likely be louder than intended, as the entire scan returns negative results*
No, I don’t suppose it would be that easy, would it?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*Sighs, then moves my hand back and forth like I'm holding a ray-gun and points to the window and then back at the controls*

@Nimda

*Turns back to the console and initiates a scan for life below*
