[ Natasha's sitting at a table with a stack of black rectangular objects about the size of a palm. She holds up one close to the camera. ]

These are emergency radios in case our network goes down. They come with an inbuilt tracker [ a small hiss ] and three different types of lockpicks, which work for every door in the mansion assuming they haven't been altered. The button here [ she turns it over to demonstrate ] is a torch. No battery needed.

[ She gives it a quick shake, and the torch shines on the table. ]

If you want one, I'll be in the dining room.

[ Asking for a "friend", huh? ]

Hypothetically speaking, it would be temporary.

[To demonstrate, he switches on the video function. It's hard to make out much of anything through the silvery bars of static horizontally slashed across the screen. The sight persists for a good minute, accompanied by the shriek of audio distortion, before it turns off.]

[ well that's... something, sure looks like an ability though. ]

It could be something that blocks only your video transmissions on this network. We could try it out to be certain.

lockpicks should be fine
radio would probably still work just fuzzy
but a couple people here are out for me
rather not give them the chance to track me

[ Wonderland is a fairly quiet place. The fact that someone's already made enemies is highly unusual. There's only a slight delay in Natasha's reply. ]

I can remove the tracker.

is that one of those things where you say your gonna do something and make it look like you did and then you don't
just gotta double check here
