MOAR BUGGING. (I feel bad doing this during app cycle though. Sorry! D: ) I also get the feeling that part of this has probably been asked before, but I couldn't find anything. T__T
Jaime wants to try various things with the radios and possibly the intercom, sooo...
1. Is there any apparent controls/speakers/whatever for the intercom? Anything he could get at wires through would be what he's looking for.
2. Uh, this is fail on my part, as one of Jaime's abilities that I forgot to pay attention to involves communications and stuff. Annnnd now he wants to try using it so I have to come up with an idea of wtf it's going to be able to do here.
Basically he's been hearing about Jack and Jill and the radios, and want to try using them for communication with the Scarab acting as a 'boost'. He'll have to get his hands on a two-way or something first, which is slowing him down, but if/when he gets one, he's going to be trying the following:
a) Getting the Scarab to boost the signal enough to get a message out to someone, he doesn't care who, he just wants to see if it can be done.
b) Seeing if he can contact Jill via the radio.
Failing that, he'll probably be trying c) getting the Scarab to 'tune in' to the two-way, so that he could give them out to others and work as a sort of superhero switchboard.
Those are his main ideas, and I'm totally okay with 'lolNO' being the answer to all of them. :'D Or equally coming up with some kind of huge ass cost for doing even something tiny, like splitting headaches for a couple of days/inability to use the Scarab for the rest of the night for just getting the Scarab to pick up the right frequency. Whatever you guys think would work.
*FLAILS* SORRY FOR THE TL;DR AND DIFFICULT, THINKY CHARACTERS BEING DIFFICULT AND THINKY. AND SORRY FOR SPRINGING THIS DURING APPS. ;__;
1. There are intercoms in each room, but they were set into the walls which means that actually getting to them would take a lot of effort since the wall would kind of have to be bashed in or something along those lines.
2. Uhh, not sure that he would be able to get a message out to anyone who isn't in the institute, Jill included, but he might be able to do something with the two-way radios. We're not really sure what you mean about having him 'tune in,' so if you could explain that a little more then it would be helpful.
