DAN AAAA SORRY WE WEREN'T ABLE TO MESSAGE YOU! WE'RE OKAY!! 224
What happened?? 323
Big hack. Total blackout. 125
Some group calling themselves the "Deep Corp" or something like that. Check your CaDCom. We're at status Neon now. 134
I just got the new receipt. What the hell? Are you all okay? 323
We're fine!! We're not computers haha. It was just a tech-attack. 224
Is everything still secure? 323
Mikey's still doing checks. Rn it looks like uhhhh just some Diner stuff leaked out. And weirdly enough a bunch of stuff got put in. Like Astoria stuff. 224
Anything good? 323
Encrypted. 125
That figures. Well I'm glad you guys are okay. You really had me worried there for a bit. 323
We're worried about you!! What's all this about things watching you??? 224
I'm not sure... it just feels that way. You know that feeling, right? Like you're being watched by a customer? Plus every night there like 3-4 customers coming out from the Hotbed Airport. 323
Anyone we know? 134
I don't think so, but it's also hard to really see much other than shadows. Sometimes I see a sort of white glint out in the darkness. 323
Eyes? 125
Looks... singular. Could be I guess. 323
Any other specifics? 134
Well there's been a strange sort of scratchy noise. And it's been pretty warm out at night but the windows keep frosting over. 323
That might be enough to go off of. Good thing the Hotbed is so well documented. At least for notable customers. 134
In the meantime I'll PM you some protective sigils you can put up in the morning. And if you grandma asks you can just say they're modern art lmao. 224
