Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

Sarah wakes up in her cramped apartment as she gets a call to her cellphone - if one could call the sophisticated computing/sensor suite that - at six in the morning from the HENO project. As she wakes up, the lights in the apartment immediately start glowing faintly, and the coffee maker automatically turns on.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

Sarah groans as she rolls onto her back from her side, her fluffy ears twitching as she stares at the ceiling and yawns, reaching over blindly to pick up her communicator. The last thing she wanted to do today was get out of bed, especially when her bed was nice and warm and comfy. "Hello?" she asks groggily as she answers the incoming call.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

"Miss Chambers, I presume? I'm Professor Arma Reiser. We've been getting some strange readings at the observatory the past few nights, would you mind coming here to see if the instruments are working correctly?" As Sarah hears the man speak, she recalls being to the High-Energy Neutrino Observatory before, and it was a two-hour drive through the desert with no gates or teleportation allowed to avoid interference.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

"Yeah...I'll be in as soon as I've got myself presentable." the Kitsune says as she stands out of bed and yawns. "What kind of strange readings, by the way? The machines seem like they're going haywire? Or...Could it be we've finally found extraterrestrial life?" she asks over the phone, her own mind working to wake her up at the prospect of this development, as she moved to get her morning cup of coffee.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

Until you leave the apartment, you can freely add equipment and gadgets you think Sarah would have, within reason.

"Pulses of extremely energetic neutrinos. Assuming they aren't just a glitch in the equipment, we're not certain yet." Professor Reiser replies. The coffee, as usual, is made to her taste - the premium model was totally worth the investment.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

"That...That sounds bad...Is there a discernable pattern? Is it completely random?" Sarah asks as she moves to begin dressing herself, a rather revealing bikini top and bottoms, and summer shorts, despite her own preference for wearing bikinis, she at least had a shred of professionalism. "Have any of the other monitoring stations picked this up, as well?" she asks, grabbing the basic essentials. Her combination sunglasses and multi-spectrum vision tool, a small bag of little things she might need for a few of her more commonly-used spells, and her shoulderbag for all her other on-the-job tools she might need, gathering her things as she speaks to her boss.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

"It's always a group of 5 pulses lasting a millisecond at 7.93 second intervals, with between 5 and 60 minutes between between the groups. None of the other observatories have detected anything yet, but they haven't been observing the same part of the sky." Reiser says. As Sarah puts on the glasses, the AR automatically turns on, showing all the emails she has gotten during the night.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

"Well then, I hope you've been recording! This could be big news for you and yours!" Sarah says with a smile as she begins to go through her AR email as she finishes getting ready, grabbing her keys and moving to leave her apartment. "The set intervals per burst sounds like it could be a sort of advanced sonar or radar. But that's just a theory at best. I'd have to see the raw data in person to draw any kind of legitimate conclusion." she says as she heads down to get to her car in the parking garage. "What interests me is that the groups aren't evenly spaced out. Most echolocation devices have a preset interval that never changes. But you say these come anywhere from 5 to 60 minutes between groups of perfectly timed bursts? Any speculations on what it might be?"

"Not radar, certainly, but I suppose it could be a side product from some sort of nuclear propulsion engine. We can't rule out natural causes yet, of course. It could be two neutron stars in an irregular orbit, for example. Ah, you'll get to look at the data yourself when you get here, see you then. I need to get into a budget meeting, for my sins." Reiser cuts the call as Sarah heads into the elevator. The speedy elevator soon lands Sarah into the underground garage, with a wide variety of conventional and hover vehicles.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

"See you when I get there, Boss~" Sarah says, in her usual flirtatious manner, before hanging up and heading down the elevator. Once there, she heads for her own car, a conventional drive system, but one she thoroughly enjoys, and when asked she usually explains that you just can't get that feeling of life out of a hover car's silent engine. Heading for it, she climbs in and straps herself in, before turning it on and heading out, intending to get to work right away, considering just how important this discovery could be!

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

Putting her equipment on the passenger seat, Sarah speeds away in her convertible. Though the rush hour has already started, Sarah is heading away from the city, not into it, so she avoids the worst of it. The electric engine accelerates with ease and in only twenty minutes Sarah gets outside the suburbs and into the open desert where the cold of night is just starting to fade away as the sunrise turns from red to yellow.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

Sarah puts the top down before she leaves, knowing it'll be better once the sun rises. As she navigates her way out of the city, she can hardly contain her excitement. A possibility of extraterrestrial life, close enough to be observable by their instruments! Even if it was a set of binary Neutron stars, it would still be an interesting discovery. As she thinks about alien life, her mind also drifts elsewhere, her fluffy ears twitching as she wonders just want they might look like, how they talk. Or even what their habits might be! So many things to ponder, and thankfully, she had enough time, seeing as how she had nothing but desert road ahead for hours.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

After two hours of driving through the desert, Sarah arrives at the gates of the observatory. Unlocked and unguarded, the gates bear a sign: "Warning: Sensitive magical sensors within. Unauthorized use of magic strictly forbidden. High-intensity magic within the area may cause radiation hazards. Do not prevent the gates from closing." Though the gates and the surrounding fence are made of simple iron, Sarah can see the simple runes carved into them. Not a very potent ward, the fence is simply meant to provide a barrier against magic from outside, to prevent natural fluctuations from interfering with what happens inside.

Near the gates there is a place for visitor parking, and past the gates Sarah can a trio of buildings, though as a neutrino observatory, most of the sensors would likely be underground in the vicinity.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

Sarah smiles as she looks at the wards to make sure they were still working on her way in, curiosity more than anything, as she moves to park her convertible, putting the roof and windows back up, before grabbing her things and locking it, stretching in the desert sun. She hated it being so damn hot, but when you had a stable income and possibly being part of something groundbreaking, you sucked up and took it.

With that thought in mind, she shoulders her bag and heads for the buildings, intending to get to the Neutrino observatory ASAP.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

The staff parking lot is inside the wards and mostly full, but there are several places reserved for contractors like Sarah. After parking her car, Sarah finds Professor Reiser outside the main building, smoking a pipe. "Good morning Miss Chambers. How was the ride?" the tengu says, smoothing over some stray feathers with his free hand. Though black feathered, the sun and the heat don't seem to bother the tengu very much, and he's wearing the customary vest of his race along with straight pants, leaving his wings uncovered.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

"The ride was alright. It's not as hot as I expect of a desert, so I enjoyed the ride, Boss~" Sarah says, her voice more happy than normal. She loved teasing her bosses on contracting jobs. And if they played along, all the better. "I hope you're alright, handsome. Those black feathers can't be doing you any favors in this heat." she says, moving towards the door, opening it for him. "Has there been any change in the pattern over the last two hours?"

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

"You get used to it, girl." Reiser replies playfully, smacking Sarah's butt on his way past her. "Would you like something to drink or eat while you check the readings or will you start with the hardware?" he asks, leading Sarah towards a staircase. There are a few other people around in the entrance hall, including a trio of students taking readings from a generator of some sorts and a janitor washing the floors. Most people would probably be underground or in their offices working with the data.

Re: It's raining tentacles! (Sarah/Caulder)

Sarah giggles as the tengu gives her a smack in just the right place. "Well, I'd like to start with the data, so if you have any fresh coffee that'd e nice." she says, practically wrapping herself around Reiser's arm. "This could be history in the making. I'm so excited to be a part of it."
