Right, because of their AI network thing. They must be able to communicate instantaneously.

I wonder if there's a way to like hijack their signal or idk turn off their robo-wifi?

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

I've been told that they can.
Experience teaches me that it's very effective.
I'm afraid I wouldn't know.
My world has little in the way of machines and nothing like computers.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

It's cool, I'm mostly thinking out loud.
Or in text rather. Same thing.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

It may be worth taking your thoughts to the Lab and the Guard?
Perhaps they could coordinate the sort of attacks you're speaking of.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

Next time I'm at the lab, I'll see if I can't grab someone to ask about it.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

That would be wise.
Any possible trick we can use against the Null gives us a greater chance of survival.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

I'll see what I can turn up.

Wow this got really chatty, didn't it? I hope I didn't interrupt anything important.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

Yes, it has, but you haven't interrupted anything.
Besides, I enjoy our conversations.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

Oh, good! I know I can kinda ramble on sometimes.
Like especially when I'm bored?
Can't really do much right now without the room spinning on me so I'm just super bored.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

It's easy to be bored here without something specific to do.
Oh, dear. That creature must have hurt you badly.
Have you gotten medical attention yet?

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

I was hurt a lot worse than I thought I was, I guess.
but yeah, I'm good
Like all my roommates work at the clinic, they made sure I got patched up.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

I'm sorry to hear that.
That creature has a strange magic that knocks people out.
That's fortunate.
You're lucky in that you made it out alive.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

I'm a lot sturdier than I look.
What does she do to knock people out?
I figured I just felt crappy because I was bleeding a lot.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

Then you're very fortunate.
I'm not entirely sure.
I've heard rumors that she's connected with something called an abyss, but I think that word means something different in her world.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

I don't know what it means were she's from, but it sounds pretty creepy and like something I don't want to deal with like ever again.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

That's wise.
I interacted with it all of once, when it killed me.
I turned down an opportunity to go looking for Door fragments because it would have meant a month or better in its presence.
And I don't trust it any further than I can throw an ox.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

Yeaaah don't blame you there.
Was that the whole boat thing?

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

Yes, it was.
For a voyage like that, each would have to be able to trust the other with their lives.
How can I, when it already took mine once?

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

I'm surprised that anyone was willing to have her on their ship.
It's not exactly a big secret that she's super dangerous, right?

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

It's not, but people assume she won't kill them.
They're being foolish.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

Right, I mean she did try to kill me, and I'd literally never even seen her before.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

That's all it needs.
To see someone and be in the mood for killing.
I'd never seen her before, either, when she killed me.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

So she doesn't even need a reason, she just goes for it. That's great.

text:

[roseofthetyrells]

Yes, it just, as you say, goes for it.
It needs no reason or rationale other than it wants to.

text:

[itsnotaonesie]

Does she usually just do this stuff at random, or should I be worried about her knocking on my door looking for a rematch?
