Rita looked lost. At Goku coming back to life, or at the idea of radios, or even at something else entirely, Taura didn't know, but standing around here was going to get them killed. Or worse, get someone else killed. Even if it wasn't, uh, always permanent. Farwell, on the other hand, that sounded important. Was the they in they said Marc and the rebellion? Aguilar? Or another player, new to the game? But if so, why wasn't there much to do?

"Less to do than here?" Taura was aiming for wry, but it came out more like bitter. "Here, let me see," she added, to Rita, lifting up her new radio and finding the number. She tuned her own, and spoke into it. "Sergeant Taura to Magician Rita, we've got a crystal to place and not a lot of time, yeah?" Then she switched it off, and went back to Goku. "Want to see what we've found?"

[No damned_radios linking needed since both radios are in the same thread.]
