DAYCYCLE 22 [ Feb 21 - 28 ]

DAYCYCLE 22

[ FEB 21 - FEB 28]


MORNING


This morning’s briefing will begin with the introduction of a special Special.  Due to an error in cloning, Matt Murdock has been introduced to Alpha without his sight.  The Computer has deemed in it’s great wisdom not to start the cloning process over until necessary due to the expense scrapping an otherwise flawless model citizen.  Ray Palmer has been selected as the Troubleshooter to assist Murdock in his first days as a citizen of Alpha.


Hardison will be reinstating the network for the Specials this morning at 0800.


Troubleshooter Team: L. Martin  and S. Rogers

Old issue PDCs are being replaced with a new DO-44 model, which is rolling out next week.  You are to take these new models and demonstrate how to use them correctly at a booth in the Commissary.  Rogers is to oversee the operation and ensure that citizens are properly trained.  Martin will document the name and rank of every citizen educated.  Make sure that you focus on it’s more than 40 new features, which include a lie detector, heartbeat monitor, pedometer tracker and a self-destruct sequence.


All other Troubleshooters:  You are to report to your Service Firm positions for the day, until called on for Troubleshooter duty.


Intel: Troubleshooters who are interested in double hazard pay for going as part of an expedition to the surface should report to their briefing officer immediately to begin psychological and physical testing.




AFTERNOON


Those Troubleshooters who volunteer for the surface expedition will be subjected to a physically and mentally gruelling day of testing.  The test themselves will not help anyone determine what exactly it is that is so dangerous on the surface, but everything will be hinted from nuclear radiation poisoning to unbearable heat.  Psychological testing will include inkblot tests, word association and a lie detector test.  Medical tests will also be performed to ensure that applicants are in perfect health.  Those who are subjected to testing will be excused from their normal duties.




EVENING


The Sector Appreciation Society will be meeting in each sector this evening at 1830 to do their quarterly scrubbing of walls and floors.  They will try to recruit anyone and everyone to join in their work.  Sleeping gas will be dispelled at 2100.

"Then we should be careful what we're saying?" His tone of voice made it a question. Dick knew more than he (almost everyone did) and he'd trust his judgement. He couldn't see the grin, but the way he dropped his voice suggested that someone routinely took down the cameras. "Is there some sort of maintenance schedule for them?" he asked in an equally low voice. What he really wanted to know was how to find out when the cameras were down, but he didn't want to come right out and ask that after learning that they were being listened to possibly.

"And work from within the system so to speak." Well, as a lawyer, that was what Matt tried to do so it wasn't a totally foreign idea to him.

"In a lot of places," Dick confirmed "But there's ways around it, if you need to talk about... things." he added, deliberately vague. There'd probably be a way for Matt to use the specials network to communicate, and though he couldn't fall back on the 'old fashioned' method of pen and paper, there would probably be some other coded way of communicating that they could utilise.

"Not exactly, repairs seem to happen out of opportunity more than schedule I think. Keeping track of what's happening when is... more of an art than a science." the information was always changing, keeping up with it took effort.

"Exactly," he agreed cheerfully.

Matt nods a little at that. Dick doesn't know it, but Ray has rigged up a voice command system for him. Of course, that means he still has to talk, but he can definitely use a coded communication. His brow furrows a little. "Lydia told me about the underground railroad of communication." He's hoping that if there is a camera listening to them it won't have the information necessary to figure out that comment. He's been to the library. He knows how screwed up this place's version of history is. He's counting on Dick having had a bit more thorough and correct education in history.

"Well, they wouldn't want to make it easy on us," he chuckles a bit. "I'm sure there are some very talented artists out there."

"At least that's something I'm used to," Matt responds.
