TEAM YZMA

READY: START Team Yzma roster: Carmen Sandiego, Dave Strider, Elizabeth, Emil Vasterstrom, Juzo Sakakura, Lucy/Kaede, Penelo, Seto Kaiba, Shouto Todoroki, Souji Seta, Yato. The city's been under siege for what feels like hours. It's only on August 3rd that you learn it's been a matter of days. Monsters begin pulling Retrospec users through portals left and right, large gaping holes in reality that spit you out in any given location around the city. However, just as you think you're finally getting away, a large blue portal opens and you're snatched up. No amount of fighting and struggling will free you and soon the pressure is too great to ignore. Darkness fills your vision and the last thing you may remember is the sound of thunder... This is the Team Yzma Event Log. You are free to toplevel and thread as you choose on this log, but only team members may utilize this log.

It's Retrospec. [ it's said shortly, because he's!! frustrated!!! and taking it out on everyone i'm so sorry ]

I wouldn't expect anything less of them, given what's happened over the past few months.

[ he still hasn't forgotten breaking into the retrospec building last month and finding the intern's room. ]

[frisyr]

I guess I shouldn't have, either.

Well, we're here and... I still don't have a signal.

--Wait, do you?

[crushcard]

[ he... actually doesn't know, because he's not the type to look at his phone unless he's getting pinged by email notifications.

... come to think of it, he hasn't received any since he woke up SO.

but just to be sure he's going to take out his phone to check.

nada, and the battery is also dangerously low, oops. ]

None.

[ his tone is grim? ] So either we're deep enough underground that signal can't reach us, there's signal blockers, or something else is happening here.

[ NEITHER OF THESE OPTIONS SOUND GREAT TO HIM. ]

[frisyr]

Well, I don't know how deep we are down here, but...

Wouldn't we be able to find blockers?

And cameras, if there are any.

[ he frowns. ]

[crushcard]

No, blockers would have to be active from the outside, so we would have to get out of the room first before we could find any.

[ frowns! ]

The technology here is... dated.

[ he says it like it leaves a bad taste in his mouth. ]

[frisyr]

Well, didn't they mention something about 1953?

This stuff's not that old.

[ He says this with confidence even though he has no idea, boy was born in like '97. ]

[crushcard]

[ he's going to make a face. ]

Ancient, by programming standards, since the first modern computer technically was only made in 1948.

[ THE MORE YOU KNOW. ]

[frisyr]

Hmm...

Okay, well. We can still work with that, right?

[crushcard]

... Probably. Like I said, technology I can deal with, but my level of programming and expertise is definitely way too advanced for whatever is in that computer.

And I'm also not entirely sure if the technology gets updated when we get out of this room.

[ since. well. they're... not in recolle anymore... ]

[frisyr]

...What, do you mean like.

We're stuck... in the fifties?

Uh, nope. No way.

I'm not going to follow the plot of Return to a Later Time and almost become my own grandpa.
