Entry tags:
text/audio/video (-> action?);
[The screen displays black for several seconds before flickering into scrolling, illegible symbols-- unless you can read Reach, of course. They begin slowly at first, but at the fifteen second mark they've filled the screen: the text speeds across the display in multiple directions in blurry blue lines.]
[requested entries no longer in database. attempt system override?]
[There's a moment or two where the text continues-- but then, abruptly, the strange alien lettering freezes. There's a harsh whirring, like a CD's gotten stuck in its player.
It's not a good sound, in any case.]
[ABORT ABORT ABORT--] [blares a voice, and there's about half a second of a partially-transformed Blue Beetle shielding his face and stumbling backward in a hurry. The screen's filled with a bright blue light, and then the feed cuts out completely once more.
Someone's gonna need a new console.]
(ooc: Jaime's just tried to hack into the console searching for the source of old Malicant posts! clearly it did not go as planned. feel free to have heard the ruckus if you're in the Wood sector; any network replies will come from a cafe console later on.)

Alien? Are we talking Close Encounters or Star Wars?

You realize that now that you've pointed this out to me - to ME - you have to explain. In detail. LOTS of detail.

If it helps, it's a friendly alien. [NOW it's friendly, even if it didn't begin that way.] I'm not trying to assimilate everyone into the Borg with it, seriously-- I was just looking for something that apparently isn't even here anymore.

[Because aliens. Cool friendly aliens. That is super awesome cool.]

It's an extremely long and personal story, but it's a superpower thing.

Alien-related superpowers?
You weren't PROBED, were you?

[Let's just be careful not to tell him about how the Reach actually ARE evil, then.]
