Over the comms, you hear Rex say, wait a minute, has your chest always lit up like that?

Ziggy.

You get a weird blip of interference.

Information hits your brain in a cascade like the first drops of rain.

Everywhere, all at once.

You process the information in a split second, but not fast enough to call out.

Not interference.

A remote signal.

Targeted, not wideband.

A send.

A receive.

The taste of cookies in your mouth.

Mrs. Umay.

The radio will cut out for a second or two.

And then, boom.

The ship explodes from inside, sending it careening off the garden, plummeting it into the water below.

Stay low, we don't know if anyone's coming.

Oh yeah, I want to grab Pixel and just like, and Ziggy too, because I know that Rhett and Pike will get down, but I'm going to basically tackle, I realize effectively that there's been this massive explosion, and I know that we're kind of in the bushes in the overgrown hedges, but I am going to basically try to tackle both of them and get down to the ground as quickly as possible.

Yeah, you do so unless there's any resistance, but you tackle them both down to the ground.

You hang low, watching, waiting for any kind of resistance, any kind of movement.
